Food babble

I wrote a long post that I decided not to send. Better leave that for my biography.

I’ve made some freezer jam. I would have canned the jam, but my pot isn’t tall enough.

This is a good time to make blackberry jam. I use the pectin for low-sugar recipes. I like my jam to be sweet but not too sweet.

Sugar is addictive.

I’m going to make a cheesecake tomorrow. I’ve been looking all over for my springform pan, but I can’t find it. If I can’t find it tomorrow, I’ll make individual cheesecakes in the air fryer. But cheesecake is going to happen.

I use Neufchâtel cream cheese instead of regular cream cheese, so I’m gonna try to make a cheesecake out of it. And we can eat some, and I have some parchment paper so I can freeze individual slices to save the rest.

Cheesecake is fairly easy to make. When you lightly jiggle the pan, the center should move a little when it’s done. It will set as it cools. So as long as you don’t keep baking it until it’s overdone, a cheesecake is pretty no-fail to make.

I just think "You don’t cook scrambled eggs until they look done. You turn off the heat before that and the eggs will continue to cook with residual heat while being put on a plate."

It’s why people drop their hardboiled eggs into cold water or ice water when they’ve boiled enough. It’s to stop them from continuing to cook in their shells.

I think egg is a mysterious substance.

If you put it in the microwave, it will explode into 3rd-degree burns.

And if you mix it with dairy and pour it over a graham cracker crust, you can enjoy one of the most satisfying eating experiences human tastebuds can produce. Eggs can be savory and sweet. They can be crispy and soft. They can be boiled, fried, baked, whipped, and mixed with oil and lemon to become mayonnaise.

Eggs and potatoes are two magical ingredients that can be prepared in multiple ways that can completely change their taste and texture. You can even make a meal of sliced sausage or hotdogs fried with potatoes and eggs. And chopped green onions or chives added at the last moment can make it taste delicious.
