Thanks for the thread, greeneyes!
My poor Christmas cactus has been struggling along despite benign neglect. I realized today I need to repot it and give its little toes some more room!
Marcella, I sent my order today for the tromboncino squash and the Cooking Off the Grid book. Thanks for the info on both of those items.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Glad you are getting the squash. You will read that cookbook from beginning to end because there is so much information besides recipes in there but you will also read the recipes because nothing in your fridge is used to cook any of that. She scaled down the recipe amounts also so there wouldn’t be a whole bunch of left overs since you would have no refrigeration. You can double the recipe of course if you have more people to feed than the original recipe.
The making cheese recipe is so simple and then using the peppercorns with that cheese makes a cheese that lasts days without refrigeration.
It’s just the best thing I have to make meals without power and no refrigerator.
That reminds me, I need to check our Christmas cactus. It is upstairs in the kitchen window. I have it to hubby a long time ago, and it has bloomed every Christmas, even though we keep it very confined in a small container.
