JJ, to make hot sauce, we put up a bunch of cayanne peppers in a jar with a little salt and vinegar, age it for a few months. Then we take them out put them in the blender with some of the vinegar from the jar, blend well, strain into bottles and you are done. Hot sauce. Works for all kinds of peppers.

Don't think I've said anything before, but when we got back from PA, our refrigerator had gone out.  Lost everything inside.

One of the things was a bottle of homemade hot pepper sauce.  Picked up some cayanne, jalapino, and habanarro peppers over the weekend to make up some more.  Basically just pickeled peppers, in white vinegar, we like it on "Greens"

Made 2 pints of jalapinos, for those that like milder flavors,

2 bottles of mixed, with all three, for a more robust flavor,

and 1 jar of the habanarros, for the insane.

 

Bring on the collard greens.

Sounds like everyone's been eating well...Catfish and crawdaddys,  yum.

 

Don't know about investing in all that Indian and German apparatus.  All we need to do, lately, is hit the local Wall Mart parking lot.  It's 102 out here now.  Set out that big fry-pan and get to cooking.

The catfish were great and we had crawfish also.

Tobert,

LOL, how was the catfish.  My mom , brother and his wife had never had crawfish (imagine?)  So last Tuesday night I made crawfish etouffee.  Even the 2 year old loved it!!

All the girls have dates to go out and eat. I don't know why? I'm cooking my favorite Catfish Head Courtbouillon. The younger generation these days!

Now we need abig cooker,

The cooking system has come up as a joint effort of Brahma Kumaris India and Solare- Bruecke, Germany, The solar reflectors in the cooker produce steam which used to cook vegetables and rice for up to 18 000 people. The steam can reach temperatures of 650 degrees Celsius at the focal point of the reflector, hot enough to cook food in massive industrial pots of 200 and 400 liters. On days of peak solar radiation the system can apparently cope with 38,500 meals per day.
