  • Hey Everyone!
    I decided I wanted to make english muffins yeasted so I could make them in bulk, fairly quickly, while I cannot get my sourdough starter to work in these temps, I am working on the proofing boxes, but its ongoing!
    I was really happy with how this tweak went after figuring out the sizing and I made another huge batch a week or so later and will share the final results then!
    Hamburgers, always a crowd favourite, and something I make when I have just minced the beef trim each month, though the buns were a little disappointing this time hehe!
    And Creamy Ramen! so good, so simple.

    Maybe wrapping fleecey material round your starter jars would help.

Looking forward to seeing what you get up to with the new stove.

      If I don’t add any lentils/barley, I can can it but I wasn’t overly fond of the texture of the meat canned, we have done it before, it also would be 2/3 jars needing to be opened per meal, so it’s one of those meals that feels like saving room in the freezer for is a good thing, if that makes sense ? :)

    Hi Nyssa, have you ever had a wander through Fresh and Save if there is one on your travels? I go there before I go to Woolies, Coles, and Aldi because they have some really good prices on a lot of things, and most prices are comparable to the other three supermarkets on like items. Also, they often have items that are not in the other three supermarkets. As I said, there are a couple of brands that the others have, that they don't carry, but I spend WAY less on the bulk of my shopping if I do go there. Anyhow, might be worth a look if you're going past.

      I have added them to Facebook to keep an eye on, they’re a little out of the way but if I end up going in an extra day I will try and make the effort! I normally order Cole’s/woollies online before I go to use PayPal and so I know what I can get from them which makes it a bit more challenging but I will try and check them out :D

We only switched out to a 100 lb tank with a propane company coming out to refill it. Being just 2 of us, we don't use a lot, but it supplies our on demand water heater year round, and can be used for heating, and cooking if needed. I cook, and can outdoors with a small 2 burner propane stove 3 seasons of the year. I use an insta-pot,a small convection oven, and a 2 burner convection cooktop with our solar, just limited.

      I used to use inside to help with any sourdough in winter, the issue we have now is that we've extended the house but we've still only got that one fireplace and so the house is not staying as warm as it used to, we're not getting it up as high initially and its chilling down really quick once we are all in bed and not seeing to the fire... but I think bringing it inside with a smaller container with a seed mat and thermostat in it will work, because it still stays at least 5 degree ambient temp inside, whereas it can get down to -5 outside and the heatmat cannot compete.
