On brining, yes, I do brine quite a bit. I love how it plumps up the meat and keeps it moist. I have found with grass fed pork and beef a little brining is a must as there is a lot less fat in the meat than corn, feedlot fed. Plus it's a great way to add flavor. <br /><br />Phoebe - I made a vegan's mouth water? Wow! <br /><br />Meeko - Hello!! We had such a good time!

I have seen the book. I think I need to pick it up to enjoy. My husband wants to be able to live off the land. I would just prefer to live off my neighbors land. I am not sure I would make a great farmer, but I am more then happy to pay local farmers to grow my food for me!<br /><br />When I cook chicken, turkey or pork roast I typically will brine it to help keep it moist. It offers amazing results. Do you ever brine your meats?Tamis Markshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16478543041875155264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-35948010154356545212009-10-06T15:59:05.747-04:002009-10-06T15:59:05.747-04:00CrazyChris - when you get an oven just give me a s...CrazyChris - when you get an oven just give me a shout! <br /><br />Marguerite - thank you - I will admit, the chicken does taste better when there is a nip in the air<br /><br />Crystal - I don't know how bad it is in the UK - but here in the states it is getting positively dangerous.<br /><br />Nancy - that is music to my ears! Good for you and good for your family and community! You don't have to go vegan to eat responsibly or healthily. I'll be posting some more recipes with seasonal produce. There is a roasted butternut squash recipe that even my picky eaters love.

Farmer's Markets are now going all year for some things, delivering about 15 miles from our house, once a month. It's really great, you just order what you want on-line. <br /><br />I agree with you, I am done with mass-produced food, if I can help it. Organic, free-range, raised responsibily and humanely, is our goal for everything we buy.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178290697351352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-58172877200548828092009-10-06T14:32:08.921-04:002009-10-06T14:32:08.921-04:00I don't think it bears thinking about how some...I don't think it bears thinking about how some mass producers churn out their food.
