Freezer burnt Salmon

Scooby was home with a crew of 5 snowboarders from UMD. Sheryl had cooked quite a supper for them all. The subject came up that Scooby still had salmonin the freezer from this summer and that it was freezer burnt. One of the crew said that his father soaks freezer burnt fish in milk for several hours and it will make it edible again...interesting! Now if I can keep fish in my freezer long enough to try this fixit, we shall see!! If anyone knows more of this theory I would like too have success confirmation?? Have a GREAT day!!

Made a ruttabage splitter;

need; machette with a curved tip- drill hole through the top of the curved tip

Making maple syrup.

Pics are from over at Gordo's today and Shmitty and Quiugly got a thing goin!!

I have 20 gallons or so of maple sap that I tapped over the last couple of days. Will boil it down in the near future. Heading over to Gordo's this morning. He and his tappers have a good 100 gallons or so and have 4 pints bottled already. They are using wood to concentrate it so I will get some ideas from the pro's!!
Started out by drilling a hole in maple tree 7/16 drill bit is the standard for most stock taps--2 to 3 inches deep . I have 5 taps. When temp drops below freezing at night and warms up during the day is the correct reciepe for sap flowage!! Don' take long (4 hrs is a GREAT flow )to fill a milk jug when flow is good. Will post some pics of my trip to Gordo's over on the North West side of Morris hill in East Farmington, over in the rich part of town. Only place around where people drive their ATV's wearing suit, ties and wing tips.

Frying pan sticking problem.

When frying in a cast iron frying pan, and it starts to stick. Put a tablespoon of water in and it will release!??!? Pretty cool. I learnt something from Sheryl today.
