Do you know what this vintage cooking tool is? My grandmother had one of these in her kitchen and I watched her use it many times. This kitchen tool is a Strainer Sieve and is used to make jam and tomato sauce.



My grandmother did make tomato sauce and she also made a lot of jelly and jam. She would grow the tomatoes herself and hand-pick the fruits for her jelly from the farm. I have great memories of my grandmother in the kitchen setting out the canning jars ready for filling and storage. In the basement, she had an area where she would store her homemade canned food.



Do you own vintage kitchen tools? If you visit an antique store you will find many vintage kitchen tools and you might wonder what they were used for. I have seen many kitchen tools in antique stores and wondered how they were used. To me, it is very interesting.

My Thoughts On Lemon Meringue Pie:



I am always surprised when I hear someone say they don't like lemon desserts or pies. I even love lemon flavor cakes. I had an aunt that ate raw lemons all the time. I don't know how she could do that because I think lemons are too sour by themselves, but I really like lemon flavor in foods. I even like lemon-flavored candy. The sweet and sour taste is good to me.



More Information For You:

Beer bread is a moist and flavorful quick bread that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a casual gathering. It is made with a simple batter of flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder, baking soda, and beer, and it is often served with butter or honey.



What makes beer bread so popular?



There are several reasons why beer bread is so popular:

  • It is made with simple ingredients that are readily available.
  • It is relatively easy to make, even for novice bakers.
  • It has a unique and flavorful taste that is different from other quick breads.

Have you ever been on a low-carb diet? I have and I lost 50 pounds. I would cheat on my diet a little every once in a while as a reward but I mostly stayed away from sugar. It is a hard diet and not a diet that is sustainable.



I did incorporate exercise, which contributed a lot to my weight loss. I love bread like most people. I ate mostly salad and chicken. I would cook chicken in my Instapot and I made a great recipe for my chicken.



I put my frozen or thawed chicken in the pot then I intuitively added the following ingredients:



  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Italian dressing
  • Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning
  • Italian seasoning



If thawed, I would cook it for an hour; if frozen, I cooked it for an hour and 1/2.



If you try this I would like to know what you think about my Instapot chicken recipe. You can adjust the amount of ingredients to your taste. 



Some Questions For You:

My Thoughts On Beer Bread:



I really enjoy beer bread. It has a great beer flavor without the alcohol. I like to put real butter on a slice of beer bread and sprinkle it with salt. If I use salted butter I don't use table salt. I think beer bread goes well with any main dish. It's an easy bread to make and the classic recipe will impress anyone who tastes it.



More Information For You:



A Brief History of Beer Bread



  • The Rise of Quick Breads: The popularity of quick breads emerged in the mid-19th century with the advent of baking powder and baking soda. These leavening agents eliminated the need for long fermentation times, making bread-making more accessible.
  • Beer as an Ingredient: The use of beer in bread likely began as a practical way to utilize leftover beer. The carbonation in the beer acts as a leavening agent, contributing to the bread's rise and texture.
  • American Popularity: Beer bread gained widespread popularity in the United States during the 20th century, becoming a beloved comfort food. Its simplicity and versatility contributed to its enduring appeal.



Beer bread is a relatively recent addition to the culinary landscape. While the art of bread-making dates back millennia, the specific combination of flour, sugar, and beer to create quick bread is a more modern invention.



While the exact origins of beer bread might be somewhat obscure, its connection to the history of quick bread and the availability of beer as an ingredient provides a plausible explanation for its creation.

Quote For The Day:



"How can a nation be great if their bread tastes like Kleenex?" - Julia Child



Food For Thought:



"Wow! My grandma's collection is just amazing."

I thought I had a lot of skillets in my house. I have three skillets of different sizes. I had to share this skillet collection because the entire rack is dedicated mostly to cast iron. How many skillets do you own?



Skillet Cleaning Tip: The Baking Soda and Vinegar Combo



Stuck-on food is no match for this simple yet effective method:



  1. Create a paste: Combine baking soda and a small amount of water to form a thick paste.
  2. Apply generously: Spread the paste evenly over the burnt or greasy areas of your skillet.
  3. Let it sit: Allow the paste to sit for at least 15 minutes, or longer for stubborn messes.
  4. Scrub it off: Use a sponge or scrub brush to gently scrub away the loosened food particles.
  5. Rinse and dry: Thoroughly rinse the skillet with warm water and dry it immediately to prevent water spots.



For extra stubborn messes, you can add a splash of white vinegar to the baking soda paste for added cleaning power.



Tip: To prevent future stubborn messes, soak your skillet in warm water but never overnight.



How To Season A Cast Iron Skillet



Materials Needed:

  • Cast iron skillet
  • Vegetable oil (flaxseed oil can also be used, but it tends to flake off over time)
  • Paper towels or lint-free cloth
  • Oven



Steps:



  1. Clean the Skillet: Wash the skillet with hot water and mild dish soap to remove any residue. Dry it thoroughly with a paper towel.
  2. Apply a Thin Coat of Oil: Using a paper towel or lint-free cloth, apply a very thin layer of oil to the entire surface of the skillet, including the handle. Make sure there are no excess pools of oil.
  3. Heat in the Oven: Place the skillet upside down on the middle rack of a cold oven. Put a baking sheet on the lower rack to catch any drips. Heat the oven to 450-500°F (230-260°C) for about an hour.
  4. Cool Slowly: Turn off the oven and let the skillet cool completely inside before taking it out.
  5. Repeat: Repeat steps 2-4 at least two more times to build up a good layer of seasoning.



Tips:



  • Use high-smoke-point oils like flaxseed oil, canola oil, or vegetable oil.
  • Don't use too much oil; a thin layer is sufficient.
  • Avoid washing the skillet with soap after seasoning. Just wipe it clean with a paper towel.
  • If the seasoning starts to flake off, you can repeat the seasoning process.



Additional Notes:



  • The seasoning process creates a non-stick surface on the skillet, making it easier to cook with.
  • A well-seasoned cast iron skillet can last a lifetime with proper care.



By following these steps, you can create a durable and non-stick surface on your cast iron skillet.

Extra Information For You:



A Brief History of Banana Bread



Banana bread is a relatively modern creation, and its popularity is tied closely to the rise of home baking in the early 20th century.



  • The Great Depression: This economic crisis spurred a focus on using up every ingredient, including overripe bananas. The need for economical and satisfying recipes led to the creation of banana bread.
  • Baking Powder Revolution: The widespread availability of baking powder and baking soda in the early 20th century made it possible to create quick breads like banana bread without the time-consuming process of yeast bread making.
  • Pillsbury's Influence: The Pillsbury Company played a significant role in popularizing banana bread through its cookbooks and recipes.
  • Post-War Boom: The post-World War II era saw a renewed interest in home cooking, and banana bread became a beloved comfort food.
