General cooking tips

Buy Local Food : It’s easy to take locally abundant foods for granted when they’re in season, but you can enjoy many locally produced foods out of season by stocking up. Storing big baskets of hazelnuts (in the Northwest) or pecans (in the Southeast) will come naturally if you start thinking like a squirrel. Look for foods that keep well, such as nuts, honey, winter squash and sweet potatoes and stock up.

Ingredients And Procedures

12 oz EVAPORATED MILK

1/2 c BUTTER

2 T LIGHT CORN SYRUP

2 c BROWN SUGAR; firmly packed

1 t VANILLA

2 c PECANS

Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan; set aside. In a heavy 4-quart saucepan, combine milk, butter, corn syrup, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Place over medium heat and stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until mixture comes to a boil. Clip on candy thermometer. Cook to 234 F (115 C) or soft- ball stage. Pour, without scraping, into baking pan. Cool to lukewarm. Add vanilla. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens. Add nuts and continue stirring until candy loses its gloss. Scrape out onto plastic wrap. Pat into a loaf shape (about 9" x 5"). Slice and serve, or wrap in plastic and store in the refrigerator for several weeks. VARIATION: Use 1 teaspoon maple extract instead of vanilla. Shared by ELLIE COLLIN, Prodigy ID# CMKD93F.
