Self corn teened or bugged in already? Come hang out.

Thanks to the previous poster for the burrito recipe. Will make adaptations as I love bean & cheese burritos and ground beef & potato ones too.

Didn't know there was such a thing as "burrito seasoning." Googled a recipe and have all of the ingredients too.

And I thought it was a US colloquialism.Even the spelling is strange up there.

Spent the day collecting sap, probably boil tomorrow, almost a thousand gallons on hand so far.

Checked all of our stocks, down to our last twenty head of cattle, forty hogs with two new litters of piglets, so almost 60 total. We're finally getting decent egg production again, about three dozen a day. There's the ducks and turkeys, two chest freezers full of ground beef, sausages, steaks, roasts and ribs, smoke house is full up, cheese cave and prosciuttos about half full. Four new lambs this morning.

Fruit cellar is getting a little thin, maybe a hundred jars left but plenty of saurkraut, kimchi, and beets in crocks. Maybe fifty or sixty pounds of salt, ton of dried herbs, teas, seed stocks, dried peppers, ears of popping corn, etc.

I tried to think of some things we could use or still need, but aside from things like engine parts for the tractor and fuel I think we're good.

Whatever happens is going to happen. We're way too busy to worry about this hyped up we all gonna die histrionics that these effete popinjays are trying to sell.

Hope everyone else keeps supporting your local family farmer during this time, they're the ones who are going to save people from starvation if the supply lines ever break down.

Good luck all.

Sage advice.

We are Sorta-teened here....We work from home so thats good. We pulled the kids from school last week and we topped off our preps in January. Started the garden early this year so that the food comes in earlier....that'll keep us out of the grocery store soon. We do still run out early in the morning or late evening to grab milk or what nots and we bleach everything that comes back on the property.

We aren't eating out, so last night it was homemade pizza! Mine was on a shredded chicken crust as I'm trying to avoid carbs. Im loving corn teen! Im gettin tons of chores and projects done!

I use this technique when I make rice. If I'm going to use it for rice pudding or other sweet dish, then I use butter (or coconut oil), no onion and plain water instead of broth.

Well, the scoop is 1/16th a tsp for this. It is blazingly sweet, but in the right amount that doesn't have an aftertaste, it's not bad. Maybe better as a sweet augment than a complete sugar replacement.

OK Recipe. Preserve eggs. Do not wash. At room temperature coat with Vaseline to block the pores then store with pointy side down in cool place. Will last nine months plus.

Partner says she really enjoys the coating with Vaseline bit. Don't know what she means.

Home made ramen noodles

Fill a pot with water & drop in a fatty chicken thigh...boil for 30 minutes.

Add salt & a pound of pasta...boil until ready...EAT!

You can also cure the yolks.

Mix 50/50 salt and sugar put it in a flat container about two inches deep. Take an egg in the shell and make as many depressions into the mix as the size of your container allows, separate the white from the yolks, place the whole yolk in each depression and cover with the rest of your salt sugar mix, store in a cool spot for a week. The yolks will be firm, and you can grate them or shave off pieces to add to any dish the same way you would parmesan cheese only the flavor is out of this world.

Now make meringue out of the egg whites. Let them air dry for a few days and then throw them in a food processor (or put them in a mortar and grind them) and turn them to a flour like consistency. Put in ball jars and keep in a cool dry place and add to soups, baked goods, or reconstitute with milk and cook like scrambled eggs.

Both of these methods will preserve eggs for up to a year.

Ya what Off Switch said....

I read all of this great advice about egg preservation, but the part of my brain that spent time in America and knows that eggs go in fridges and then go bad a couple weeks later will not let me go ahead and try any of these things.

I do, however, have powdered eggs.

Awesome info!

Tbh, we can live off of our property. We'd get skinny, and the animal culling would be pretty intense, but we could do it.

I guess I should say we're 98% corn teened. We still need to get another feed load in. But we can call it in and have it left on the dock for us so we can lysol or bleach water the entire load and deal with no one in person.

Lance, I love you, brother, but please don't buy that this is nothing. If I am wrong, and this is actually nothing, it doesn't harm anyone or cause any damage. But if you are wrong...How many are you willing to harm to prove you "ain't skeered"?

Sprouts?

Mice, squirrels and pigeons?

Insects

Cold water soak for your doorway entrance to drop canned goods into when returning home.

Thread: MAKE AN ANTI-VIRAL COLD WATER SOAK AT YOUR DOOR - Sterilise all canned goods !

The only reasons those store bought eggs would go bad that quickly is
1) They are washed before packing and
2) they have been warehoused for weeks to months prior to sale

Farm fresh eggs (days old) will keep for at least three months if kept reasonably cool.
If the yolks are firm enough to retain a nice, tight shape, they are good to use the way suggested.

.

What if all the labels fall off & I don't know if it's a can of peas or corned beef hash?

You can scramble then dehydrate them. Or you can stir them with a fork and freeze individually or a bag full.

Talking about the Vaseline treatment - not sure it will work with store bought except free-range- The more evidence of where they came from the better. Washing definitely does not help,

Powdered eggs just aren't the same!

Then you make quaranteened surprise! Helps to break the boredom. Or you could just mark on the bottoms of the cans what is inside.

Is it bad that I've been entertaining myself on Facebook with egging enthusiastic tourists on with their "the virus can't be so bad" thing by encouraging them to party like it's the end of the world?

Proper preps for a corn teen...

Corn dogs
corn flakes
corned beef
corn
and of course...corn rona!

Try not to have a cornonary!

More corn teened stuff. Ashes go with corn to make hominy. Ashes can be used to preserve eggs. I saved the info from this site:

It has a lot of uses. Some I was unfamiliar with.

never knew how much work it is every day to cook every meal from scratch ...

i used to go out for breakfast 3-4 times a week ... but my fried potatoes are now getting better ... ha!

I like trying to make my own potato chips.

if you could see my little kitchen ...

If you're bored of eating beans...try turning them into dessert (seriously).

Red bean buns are good. I used to get them in China Town, but now I think I'll just make them at home... forever.
