It was a Two Apron Day!
Well a managers special ... eggs half off. Now you may not notice that these are Organic, cage free, grain fed. When God gives you eggs.......... Well two other dozen were turned into hard boiled and now to make use of these.
In the image I also found two bottles of pure organic lemon juice....(with a good expiration date)
Can you guess it?
I separated the eggs over a third cup. Use care No egg yolk in the whites is important critical. The date was one where each egg had to be checked after I opened them but three out of the four dozen were perfect (you check for the consistency of the white not to liquid must have good clear smell too. If the yolk breaks at opening too old toss it out). Sounds strange, but I learned from a friend who keeps a working family farm. Use older eggs for boiling. They crack and peal clean and easy. New eggs are for frying.
2 cups of the 4 cups of egg white go into "Miss Vanilla Spin"(so named by "dove") she whips them with cream of tarter and vanilla, BIG batch half it into another bowel *as I turn to work other things then return). Now whip more to stiff and add sugar. Use Little sister spin and keep a going on high. Called "Dash" in hear to help. Folded(that is gently done as not to loose the air in your whites) in two bags quality shaved coconut.
Other half added sugar, pure almond flavor and almond slivers two hand fulls or so. Then another for measure.
Using my large scoop for time was an issue with all this raw egg out.
Full trays are fine these stay in mounds as they bake. Other bowl on stand by as I work the yolks.
Did you guess it? Lemon custard. A lot of it, and yes, that is the big soup pot.
I never do anything small. It is just a waste of time.
Do you see my secret ingredient for my crust.
Dang never was any good at keeping secretes! :)
No not the canola oil however that is a more nutritious crust.
This is NOT A HEALTH FOOD!
It is the vinegar. Use it in place of half of the ice water.
It evaporates faster than water. Flaky crust.
All purpose flour is a must here.
And WALLA! A BIG SINK FULL OF DISHES! HA!
No really a big messy counter...:)
Oh! wait a minute two DEEP DISH Lemon Meringue pies.
These are like two pie each. They have a lot of staying power.
Like three days. If folk come over only two! :)
Got one a little toasty, turned my back with the camera opps.
It is not burned though.
A Day!
We had soup for supper.
My kitchen is a well beloved mess.
The monkey piles of file boxes call.
Oh man! A play date tomorrow with a Sweet Baby in to house!
That child will sure have a lot to entertain her! Ha!
Her Momma will be lucky to sit down.
I love my little family of guests that are coming what a Beautiful Momma with her kids.
