I definitely boiled the gravy partly to try to thicken it (plus flour) but that’s tougher to do. I’m never using enough flour :-)
our original gravy supply ended and I’m on the “stock” of boiled turkey bones that I made on Saturday night! Just froze 2 glass jars after removing some liquid to give it room for expansion (to avoid glass shatter). we are near the end on turkey! Down to some breast for The Fred, plus single thigh / drumstick / wing, which I transferred from freezer to fridge. So all left in freezer is more bones for future stock and the 2 jars. I’m seriously pondering the roasting of another turkey except I’d buy a smaller one at Costco or even Safeway and I’d use the seasoning from Bon App recipe that my child’s future mother-in-law used. https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/ex...2aDZoXuHYYDgpM Why don't you try roasting a chicken? I love roasted chicken. |

Unless they are specifically labeled for freezer use, I don't think I would freeze anything in a glass jar.

Keema beef tonight (and last night). Semi-smoked BBQ back ribs last Thursday and Saturday, grilled duck breast last Friday. Pan-friend pork chops last Wednesday.

If you are going o use a glass jar, don't try to fill it anywhere near full (less than half is ideal) and put it n its side so that it can at least expand up.

costco red king crab legs
oven-baked steak fries raw veggies (red orange green) crescent rolls pb&j on white bread without crusts i Fed a piece of crab to my child and still no interest for more - it’ll save me some money for now. Tuesday is garbage so Monday night is best night to have crab supper. Usually I’ll freeze the shells until garbage day but then it takes up space in the freezer. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...7c338f9b5.jpeg

I hadn't heard of these potatoes so I googled. Are they noticeably different from other fingerlings? Where do you find them?

Metlox Lotus plates? I have those .
The first I recall hearing of Metlox was of their plateware being recalled for extraordinarily high lead/heavy-metal levels. The last I heard of them is that they left a mess of lead and/or other heavy metal contamination before closing down. Maybe in between they learned a lesson as they seem to be still in demand in the aftermarkets. |

Lead contamination for dinner?
In response to too much red meat recently, I've gone veggie for a few days. Cauliflower cheese last night and mushroom risotto tonight. Altogether lighter and simpler. |

I don't use mine often but maybe I should find a wsy to test for lead. :eek:
After Metlox shut down in 1989, a pit on the property where contaminants were dumped since the plant opened in 1927 had to be cleaned up. ETA: The FDA does not recommend against using old pottery or ceramic ware unless it shows signs of deterioration, such as cracking or pitting of the glaze, which may allow lead to leach into food. |
