two pounds of breakfast sausage. 1 1/4 cups of yellow corn meal. 4 1/2 cups of chicken stock. two large eggs.
- seasoning: pink sea salt (fresh ground), fresh ground white pepper. dried sage.
in a fry pan cook the sausage over medium heat. about 10 minutes or until the pink color of the sausage is gone.: cook the cornmeal in boiling water until it is a "thick mush". thick mush is a technical term. finish cooking by putting the pot of mush and mush into a larger pot. this is called a water bath for obvious reasons. cook mush for 40 minutes. add the cooked mush into the cooked sausage.: Combine and blend the sausage and mush. Place into a mold and bake at 350 minutes for one hour. Make sure you cover with foil paper. Cool and Chill.
- next day slice about 1/4 inch. coat in cornmeal and saute on both sides to heat back up. serve with scrambled eggs and tomato with a-bit of char from baking or broiling.

Culinary Daughter https://www.culinarydaughter.com/
The forward and acknowledgements speak to the title coming from six one-hour videocassettes of the same name. I watched these on You-tube and they are good. I had my Papa explain what videocassette technology. The introduction stated a teaching book is only as good as the index. The index is well organized from ahi tuna to stuffing zucchini flowers. The beginning of the index is beef chart where the cuts of beef as shown as a diagram. The A to Z index is easy to follow and organized.
The Introduction Julia states quite clearly that attitudes about food have changed since the 1960’s when she wrote her fist book, although the principles of good cooking has not. I agree, although reading through her cook book she uses jello in a quite usual way. I can not figure who thought of “free-form” jello and shrimp. The recipe is called Mediterranean Fish in Aspic. Is this idea crazy or brilliant? Crazy – I am not a fan. This combination must be the attitude about food from the 1960’s and gone the same way as videocassette technology.

Trivets
Trivets is a simple tool for the home kitchen. It helps keep the kitchen clean and organized. The Trivet for the month of September is a tea pot to follow the blog post Mad Hatter Tea Recipe.
How to make hot tea by the Mad Hatter.
I enjoy a good cup of tea. When the subject of a conversation needs to change I will ask, “How is the color of the tea today?”It usually perplexes for we will say this even if we don’t have a cup of tea. Then everyone laughs and the subject of conversation changes. Tea is a big part of family tradition.
I found this story from the Mad Hatter. How to make Hot Tea (A.K.A Uncold Tea). Start at the beginning (and when you come to the end..stop). This sounds – simply stated – as a truth in life. Pour hot water over one tea bag in your cup and steep for 2 to 3 minutes (we recommend your clock be 2 days slow). That is MAD (crazy) as my clock is my phone and good tea is made in a tea pot. The recipe for a pot of tea is one bag per person and one for the tea pot. Add milk to the tea cup and add tea as to warm up the teacup , not add milk last and cool the tea down.
Mad Hatter: Move down the table to get a clean cup.
Interesting, but no. I have just read ‘A Grandfather’s Lessons’ and Shorey Pepin, has a better way getting a clean tea cup. Clearing the table and re-setting in chapter one….but then not to argue with the Mad hatter’s perspective – how is the color of tea today?
