953 nut 55,192 #15 Posted February 24, 2023 There is a good likelihood that my cousin raised the buckwheat that flower was processed from. He and his two partners cultivate 4,000 acres in central NY and are a primary producer of buckwheat in the area. It can be planted later in the year after the winter wheat crop has been harvested giving the opportunity to double crop that land. It is harvested after the oats and before the corn crop so it makes good use of equipment and time. It is processed in Penn Yan NY so they are able to truck it directly from the field to Birkett Mills, 150 mile round trip.. Most years they put in 600 to 800 acres producing a half ton per acre. Since it goes directly to the mill there is no storage or drying involved. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beap52 809 #16 Posted February 24, 2023 Some 60 years ago, my grandmother introduced me to her version of cush cush. She would take left-over cornbread, crumble it in a skillet, pour a little water over it and basically end up with moisten hot cornbread to which she would add plenty of black pepper. She would make a rather thin white bacon or sausage gravy. She would fill a bowl with the cornbread and pour the gravy over it. It has become a staple in my house over the years. We use a microwave to steam our cornbread in--something grandma couldn't imagine ever being in most every kitchen. We also liked fried mush. When we make it at home, sometimes we would add crumbled fried sausage to it--maybe a "watered down" modern version scrapple? I like my mush crispy on the outside with plenty of butter and clear Karo syrup. My wife, she wants butter with salt and pepper. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yum!!! They say that every part of a slaughtered pig except the oink gets used for something... Went to the fall Dover Nascar race in 2001 - the first large gathering event after 9/11....... a guy I worked with bought 3 tickets, one for his wife, his son, and himself. His wife had a baby shower to go to that weekend, I bought her ticket and rode down & back with them. We stayed in Wilmington on Saturday thru Monday. We go grocery and beer shopping (another grocery ???) Saturday AM - he picks up a cake of Scrapple. Fried that up with bacon & eggs - that just downright sucked.

Got that right Richard, that would make bacon a vegetable and you probably would never hear someone say "but you haven't finished you vegetables". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
