I’ve just received a couple cases of clementines which are approaching the end of their life.
I’ve never cooked with them, normally I just peel and eat them. I’m not sure if I’m up to the task of eating all these in the next few days. So if you’ve got some tips on something I could do to make them last longer I’m all ears
Homebrewing is one of those things that I’m equal parts interested and intimidated.
It definitely has some appeal, I’m just worried about creating a hazard. Every know and then you hear about a moonshine still around here exploding - and while I’m sure that’s not the risk with all liquors I do worry about fermenting “wrong” somehow and making poison
But hell, I do want to try it sometime. I’m just also worried about investing in some equipment and then never using it twice. My kitchen used to be something of a gadget graveyard 😅
To be fair I suggested it as a joke.
As for creating poison, it is hard to make something poisonous and at the same time good tasting. Stilling moonshine is on another level (and you have to be pretty reckless to poison yourself with methanol).
Loads of equipment is only “quality of life” improvement. So if you don’t mind to repurpose something you already have, spending more time on it and it may be little harder, you can do it without selling your kidney.
You can look at the sidebar of our community, there are starter guides to give you some ideas. I think that least gear intensive is mead or cider/wine from store bought juice.
