This year Dave and I have been working SO HARD to grow our food storage. We have made some great progress! But another part of having food storage is being able to cook with it. Which I couldn't do. So I have made it a personal goal of mine to learn how to make a lot of things from scratch this year. I figured it's better to learn this now, while I still have the option of going to the grocery store after my failed attempts, than later on when I possibly wouldn't have that option. I REALLY enjoy cooking and baking so this has been fun for me. So far I've made....
Cake and Frosting from scratch
Onion Rings (oh my goodness these were good. I ate them all lol)
Pie Crust
Tortillas (I can't believe how EASY these are to make!)
And breads. This was my biggest challenge. I wish I had my mom or my buddy Jan to help me learn this skill, but I'm happy to say that after many failures I finally had success!
I also made homemade graham crackers! They were pretty great!
I think my next challenge will be homemade pasta! Wish me luck!
