A picture named Mr. Tenderizer.jpg

Mr. Tenderizer (where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?)

 

A new catalog from The Sausagemaker came today and this thing was in it. Next time I place an order there, I do believe I’ll order one. Mechanical tenderizers have always been too expensive in my book, kinda like those out-of-reach cast metal $50 Kaiser Roll stamps (until King Arthur came up with cheap plastic one - which I bought on sight), just too expensive. $19.99 seems about the right price for a lark kitchen tool. Here’s the description. (I need to get out more…):

 

Mr. Tenderizer

Our price: $19.99

 


A new and unique kitchen accessory that will tenderize, flatten and marinate all at the same time. Perfect for chicken breast, flank steak, veal, turkey even venison or other wild game! The pyramid-shaped prods penetrate the meat's surface breaking up fats and allowing spices or marinades to be deeply driven into the surface of the meat


Item Number: 31269
Weight: 3 lb(s).

A picture named dianna keeland.jpg

 

Short-order cook Dianna Keeland prepares a cow brain for an order of the Oxford's brains and eggs dish. The dish is still in demand despite concerns about mad-cow disease.

(wonder what's in that aerosol can atop the stove...)

_To make Parsnip Wine._

To 12 lbs. of parsnips, cut in slices, add 4 galls. of water; boil them till they become quite soft. Squeeze the liquor well out of them, run it through a sieve, and add to every gall. 3 lbs. of loaf sugar. Boil the whole three quarters of an hour, and when it is nearly cold add a little yeast. Let it stand for 10 days in a tub, stirring it every day from the bottom; then put it into a cask for 12 months; as it works over fill it up every day.

A picture named pork-rind-pellets.jpg

My, don't these look tasty!

And an appetizing description too - "pork rind pellets."

You can order them here, but "due to inventory shortfalls" Pork Rinds Online won't be shipping any orders until July 28.

My attempts to make pork rinds from scratch have been met with varying degrees of disaster, so I'll probably order some of these.

Pellets are also available from Evans Foods.
