An alternative we prefer (here in the desert) is to use a tiny well-washed and soaked unglazed terracotta pot. We soak it in water for a few minutes, let it drain a bit and pop it in the jar with the sugar. Works for a few weeks, then rinse and soak again. Special terracotta disks are marketed just for that purpose, which is what gave me the idea. |

My mother has a fondness for sorghum. They used a lot of that when she grew up, so we always had it in the house. They sell it here for food consumption, but most of it goes to other uses, like biofuel. Louisiana is the 4th largest grower but I think Texas may be 1st or 2nd. Becca |

Agreed (although I only make pecan pie and caramel corn with it). Didn't even know HFCS was sold as a stand alone product at the retail level. -- Never trust a dog to watch your food. |

Regardless, the only > use I have for light corn syrup is pecan pie; light corn syrup eliminates > the risk of the sugar recrystalizing and makes a better pie. I totally agree. I wouldn't make pecanless pie without corn syrup. I have used it in a few other things over the years but I don't make much that calls for it. But I don't believe it is evil. Actually, I don't even believe that HFCS is evil. Although I like the taste of real sugar better so I'd rather have that in things that the corn syrup - especially sodas (Coke, etc.).

> wrote: > this may be a good recipe, but it's unlike any other for baked beans that > i've ever seen. It reminded me of a recent thread in uk.f+d about Jersey bean crocks. The discussion was about using pig trotters - nobody mentioned using pork belly and the mere thought of using a hock was almost heretical. http://www.i-love-jersey.co.uk/bean-crock.html Jersey Bean Crock Bean Crock has become the traditional dish of Jersey. It makes a filling but very tasty meal, and there are as many recipes as there are cooks - but they're all based on a mixture of dried beans, pork - preferably on the bone - or sometimes beef, and onions. Traditionally, the jar of beans and meat was carried to the bakery to cook overnight. A good bean crock relies on long, slow cooking. Traditional crock pots are still sold in Jersey - but you can use a large casserole dish with a lid, or even a slow cooker to make a bean crock. Sometimes the beans used are just haricot beans, sometimes they are mixed beans. If you want to try making your own, Touzels Pet Shop near the Central Market sell mixed bags of beans for bean crocks, as well as the crock pots. It was traditional to use pig's trotters - they give a rich gravy which forms a gel as it cools, but don't have much meat on them, so you need to add extra pork. Hocks can also be used. My recipe uses belly pork - easier to get and I don't have any problem getting a good thick gravy despite the lack of bones. Ingredients 500g/1lb mixed beans 500g/1lb belly pork, cubed 2 onions 4 bay leaves Black pepper Salt Soak the beans overnight in cold water. If the mixture includes red kidney beans it is important to boil the beans for at least 10 minutes before putting them in the crock pot. Put the beans, cubed pork and roughly sliced onions into the crock pot with the bay leaves and pepper. Cover with water, and cook slowly in a moderate oven for at least five hours. Check periodically to see that there is still enough water. You want the bean crock to thicken up, but not burn or dry out. Add salt towards the end of the cooking. Serve with crusty bread and perhaps some green salad. At community events in Jersey such as Barn Dances, bean crocks may be brought and served by the organizers. If you sample them, you will find that every one is different. Some are thick, some thin, some have carrots added. I definitely prefer mine on the thick side! -- Never trust a dog to watch your food. |

Poor wording on my part. I didn't mean to imply that HFCS is available to consumers as a stand alone product. I was just trying to say that there are several common uses for corn syrup. The original poster said he hadn't ever used corn syrup. I still think of HFCS as a heavily promoted industrial ingredient shipped by rail in tank cars from the factory that makes it to the factory that uses it. I *have* seen HFCS in the list of ingredients on *some*, but not all, Karo bottles though. It seems to me that the trend is to stop using HFCS so much. Some labels actually tout that feature now. |

Chunks were taken off as far as the dog could get to leaving most of the cake intact. Repairs were made, the cake was rotated, the back of the cake was carefully ignored during the reception. Dad waiting long enough to show the photos that it could be taken in good humor. I always seek to emulate Dad's wisdom and never quite pull it off. |
