I saw on the internet an interesting article from Louetta Hill on an easy and relatively quick way to make a blue cheese log out of goat’s milk.

I bought 5 lbs. and have been looking for recipes to use them in. Last night I fixed a sausage and pepper stir fry, inspired by a Read More …
Biscuit bombs are North Carolina’s answer to the Texan sausage and cheese kolache ( Kolaches ). I heard about them when Nick and Anna got a kit to make them from “Farmer and the Dail”, a restaurant in Snow Hill, NC (an unlikely name for a town in eastern NC where it very seldom snows!) Read More …
