Team Bettendorf in Missouri

Beans and Lentil Soup are neck and neck.

Voting will close Friday night and Saturday I will post an ingredients list.  Monday we will cook again. :)   Thank you everyone for playing.  This is more fun than I thought it was going to be.

When you post on your blog please come back and post a comment here in the corresponding post for what you are making with a direct link to that entry.  In other words don't just insert a link to your blog.  Make sure the link will take the reader directly to your particular post about this subject. 

I like the idea of doing something useful with the marrow.  I thought I read in NT something about a beef marrow pate' but I can't find it now.  Anyone know what I am talking about?

I like the idea of using veggie scraps for broth and asking for turkey carcasses.  I have a big freezer perhaps I'll try this this year.  Suppose I could go door to door?  I'd love to have a bunch of turkey bones in my freezer!!

And yes the bones are so soft they pose no harm for the dog.  Of course we used to feed our dog raw chicken instead of dog food and those bones didn't hurt her either.  I think it is more the brittle cooked, but not boiled bones you need to worry about for poochie. :)

Stock

Would adding garlic to the stock be okay? I always thought that shicken stock had garlic in it but I could be wrong.

Hey Katie...
I got my chickens today and I couldn't find a roaster at WM today so I borrowed one so I could do 2 chickens and NOT heat up the house!! WOO HOO!!!
I am taking pics along the way. Sorry to get started so late!
Have a great day and this is WAY fun! :)
Love,
Chas

Here is an idea

We need a button, a Nourishing Traditions Cook Along Button. I'm going to post at my blog about the stock. I'll come back and leave a link.

I'm enjoying this!

Great Idea...

I'm so excited you are updating here now. I think your Cook Along is a great idea. I keep "intending" to get into my NT recipes and just haven't done it, so this will give me some motivation. I did make stock over the weekend, but no pictures (sorry). I will try to catch up with you ladies this time around. Thanks for sharing Katie!
Take Care

Marrow

{ 05:49, Thursday, October 11, 2007 } { Posted by Anonymous }

When I was a kid (many moons ago) we use to suck the marrow from the bone. It was yummy. Maybe you can saw the bones at each end to make like a bit of pipe then push the marrow from the bone.
