We call it Easy Cheese and I used to like it so much on Ritz crackers at work that “Easy Cheese” became my nickname.  LOL!!!

@journeywithme2. Truth be told, I would probably love it. Sigh. Who names this stuff? ?

buttermilk pecan pies

I must have! ❤️ 

I inherited my German grandmother's Mennonite cookbook which features a traditional pecan pie made with dark corn syrup. Always a favorite, but it does not use milk or buttermilk. I'd be interested in the buttermilk recipe.

Here's mine:

1/4 cup sugar             1/4 cup water

1 Tbsp flour                1 cup dark corn syrup (Karo)

1/2 tsp salt                 2 Tbsp butter melted

3 eggs, beaten            3/4 cup pecan nuts, whole and pieces

   1 9-inch pie crust

Combine sugar, flour, and salt. Add beaten eggs. Combine water and corn syrup and add to mixture. Fold in melted butter and nuts. Pour into unbaked pie shell. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees, bake 35 minutes longer.

I also do shoo-fly pie!

Today I am having homemade turkey soup.  

I bought 2 uncooked turkey drumsticks and added the following to a pot:

-Mexican grey squash

-carrots and celery

-green beans

-tri colored quinoa

- rosemary (fresh, I have it in my garden), sage, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper 

-chicken broth

-lemon ( lemon really makes this taste great imho)

It is really good!

( I would have used an onion but didn't have one ...but really, that was ok).

 

I am using the leftover lemon for fresh squeezed lemonade with honey

Today - I turned to my comfort zone - cooking. Today? I mastered my sourdough loaf. It was a good day.?

@polarberry

I missed your comment somehow...here is the fish cake...It was chocolate.

I'm an amateur baker but I do sing sometimes and get paid for it, and I have a little art business. 

p.s. It's a fish shaped pan
