Cooking advice

Buy Seasonal Food : Food in season is the best you can buy. Apples taste better when they haven't been flown half way around the world. And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.

Buy Local Food : Bringing more local produce into your kitchen may leave you wondering what to do with unusual things such as Jerusalem artichokes, kohlrabi or mizuna. “I get requests all the time from CSAs asking permission to put my recipes into their delivery boxes,” Madison says. “I always say yes.” Get a good produce-based cookbook and don’t be reluctant to ask for recipe ideas from growers.

Honey "Cracker Jacks" Recipe

Ingredients And Procedures

1/2 c Honey

1/2 c Margarine

6 c Popped popcorn

1 c Shelled peanuts

Heat honey and margarine in a saucepan until well blended. Cool. Combine popcorn and peanuts in a large bowl. Pour honey mix over popcorn, stirring as you pour. When popcorn and peanuts are well coated, spread in a pan in a single layer. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes or until crisp but not brown, stirring several times. The difference between crisp (not brown) and burnt can be a matter of minutes. Keep in an air tight container. My Note: This doesn't really taste like cracker jacks but it was sure good. I'll use more popcorn next time as the popcorn really soaked the honey butter up fast and some was positively soggy.
