Today I made Frankfurter Casserole from 1948.
It tasted 'fine', but it needed something. Maybe
olives or more spice? Below is the original recipe.
I broiled Ball Park Beef hot dogs beforehand hoping
to add more flavor and the end result was surprisingly
smoky tasty. I just don't think it was good enough
to upload the video. Maybe a cream sauce next time?
You know what I'm going to say?
What am I going to say?
Thanks for reading! 😁

Frankfurter Casserole - Hunt Style 1948

1 small onion, diced
Dash of pepper

6 frankfurters, sliced
1/2 green pepper, diced

1/2 cup water

Cook potatoes in boiling salted water 10 minutes.
Drain. Mix with remaining ingredients. Pour into
greased baking dish and bake in moderate oven

We'll find out Friday
Farberware friends. Not long agao I found a couple of pictures from 1948 and 1950 that show Farberware saucepans unlike any I've seen, ever, in my many years of collecting. The saucepans pictured show a flared rim. Now I wonder if it's a flared lid! Much like the example Beehive lids below. I recently came across a sale of two fry pans that included a small flared lid! What you may not know is the very old lids have different designed knobs/handles. For a very short period of time the knobs were more rounded and smooth. The lid in this picture 'appears' to be the very old version. The lid in this picture is flared. Will it fit my oldest Farberware saucepan? Will it look like these pictures? Could I be more excited! Arriving Friday! Fingers crossed I tell ya!

Best wishes to all!

It looks like mine is missing a disc with a nubin? I still don't get how it was used though. Thoughts welcome! 😀

Good Wednesday!
Today is the day. My 16 year old PC needs a good dusting, fans replaced and some new heat sync compound. Always run the risk of not booting up again. To say my AMD Phenom II, 6 core Black Edition CPU has served me well, is an understatement! I'm going to hook up my Father's old HP All-in-One so I can still watch some K-Drama whilst I attempt this renovation. Wish me luck! Fingers crossed!

See you soon, hopefully!

Ghee Again! 😀
If you haven't yet made Ghee it's about time! You can even use Walmart salted butter!
1. Cut 3 sticks of butter into chunks and cook under medium heat. 4 if your jar can hold more.
2. Boil off all the water content in the butter, stirring occasionally.
3. The milk solids will separate and fall to the bottom of the pan.
4. When it starts to froth, the solids are actually frying, toasting. If you stop before this you have clarified butter.
5. Cook a little longer to impart the toasty flavor.
6. Strain. You can use cheese cloth or any fine filter.
7. Let cool on counter.
8. You can put it in the cupboard as is, or place it into the fridge for a couple hours to solidify. Then into the cupbaord. It lasts for months at room temperature.

Go Ghee!

P.S. Homemade Ghee smells like Heaven! No store bought Ghee has this smell. Evey month or so give it a snif. It will smell like bad milk or butter when it's time has come. But chances are you will have devoured it well before that.
