Hi Ruth,
RH> Don`t know if it`s the weather we`ve had the past couple of weeks or
RH> something else, but this is the first Fido I`ve had in about 10 days. We
RH> escaped the worst of it--first storm gave us rain, snow, sleet and
RH> freezing rain but a total of maybe 2 inches. This past week end we were
RH> set to get slammed but our area was in a "dry pocket" and we ended up with
RH> about 3.5 inches of snow. Down in Swansboro (on the coast) where we used
RH> to live, they got 17 inches. First week end of March, 1980, when we were
RH> there, that area got 18 inches. Anyway, we stayed in; I made chicken soup
RH> on Saturday and split pea soup yesterday. The snow is melting off but
RH> possibility of black ice tonight/tomorrow morning is keeping us home for a
RH> few more days.
Wow, sounds like you`re having a real heat wave.
"Oh Susanna don`t you cry."
I don`t blame you for staying in.
It`s been warm here this week. I took the chainsaw to some pine branches
and tree-sized photinia trunks. Yesterday i took the pruning saw to the
fig tree and got quite a workout. I got about half way through and i`m
optimistic about finishing the job today.
RH> I`ve got a slightly different version of rhubarb bars I`ll have to dig up
RH> and post. It has ginger, both candied and powdered in it, nicely
RH> complimenting the rhubarb.
I searched my database and i don`t think i have that recipe yet. The ginger
sounds like a nice touch.
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Gooseberry Bergamot Jelly
Categories: Jams
Yield: 4 Pints
4 qt Fresh gooseberries
3 Handfuls bergamot leaves;
- heaping, chopped
12 oz White sugar; per pint juice
Wash and sort gooseberries. Place in a large enameled pot and crush
berries. Add chopped bergamot leaves. Add enough water to cover and
simmer until soft, then pour into a clean jelly bag. Let drip
overnight.
Measure the juice and add the sugar. Stir over a low heat to dissolve
the sugar, then bring to a rolling boil. Boil until jelly sheets on a
spoon. Skim if a skin forms on the surface. Pour into hot sterilized
jars and seal.
The bergamot is not the European bergamot, but rather the North
American herb, Monarda clidyma, and related species.
