I think I'm going to be sticking with an actual physical cookbook from now on because those recipes unlike the ones I find online, never actually screw up

Finally found a use for all of the freshly squeezed lime juice besides making cheese

Lime soda

I have to add salt to fight the acidity before I sweeten it, but it's basically like making iced tea out of Soda water and a little bit of juice

I've basically made homemade Lift, if I added a dash of lemon

The amount of salt is really going to depend on how much juice you use but I'm only really covering the bottom of the glass and giving the salt grinder two twists and it seems to do fine

Top up with soda water and add however much sugar to your liking

Finally got my entire jar collection clean and labels removed

I honestly don't know how or when I ended up with all of these but the Barkers jars really are the most decent ones to keep

Admittedly the Bickford bottles are pretty decent but they don't fit very well in the fridge due to their height, which gets me buying the Barkers stuff if given the choice

I'm not really keen on this whole "canning" idea as it seems a bit of a waste of time, like just make something out of the stuff you have and put that in the jar

Make the pasta sauce, make the jam or jelly, make the pickle

You're still going to have to use the exact same process to put it in the jar anyway, why not just go straight to that

I finally got rid of the last of my plastic bottles, glass you can actually steralise properly

My Tortilla game is improving

After all of the other attempts using recipes online, apparently going back to the actual cooking bible was the real trick

There may be people out there who mention it but no-one I came across specified warm water, in my case I used left over whey and it still worked great, literally zero stiffness and better than anything I've bought from the supermarket

Cheese Scones, my first attempt at those Persian Chickpea cookies (I think I can definitely add more Spice than I did which is awesome) and "Chicken" Fettuccine (stored as meal prep)

After tastes testing the cookies I've realised that chickpea flour would work really well in peanut butter cookies

Also I think brown sugar would be a better match up for the flavour of the flour

I'm definitely going to play around with it and see if I can't create my own version

I hope every one had a good day

I still need to find a decent tortilla recipe, mine just didn't cut the mustard

But I'm definitely going to try that Persian cardamom cookie recipe

I've started making stewed fruit with custard and my homemade toasted muesli as something nice and warm to eat during winter

I can't decide if I'm having breakfast with custard, or dessert with a breakfast topping
