How To Make Pemmican With Coconut Oil
Pemmican
Pemmican is a natural super food. It’s the original energy bar. Pemmican is dried meat with rendered fat in a 50/50 mixture. Dried berries and honey are also added depending on the season.The Native Americans created Pemmican. It was eagerly adopted by the Europeans that came. For those reasons I have been very eager to try some but finding it locally is impossible.
I’ve seen a few places online that have traditional pemmican for sale. The reviews however are mixed. Besides that I’m a DIY guy so I decided to make my own. Once again I ran into an issue. You can’t just go to the grocery store and buy tallow. So I got to thinking about using coconut oil. The list of health benefits is long, it’s a solid up to 76 degrees, has a neutral flavor and the big part is you can find it everywhere and fairly cheap.
How to cut your electric bill by 74%!
This is the story how I managed to cut my electric bill 74% over this winter. No I did not freeze my balls off. I kinda hate the cold so the idea of sitting around shivering or having to stay bundled up all winter did not appeal to me at all. No I remained nice and toasty all winter long while averaging a monthly electric bill of $55.32.
Sauerkraut
I’ve decided to make a batch of sauerkraut. I enjoy a lot having it once a week or so. I’ve heard that the store bought stuff is nowhere near as good as homemade live culture.
I’ve seen fancy crocks online but at a hundred bucks that way to expensive for me. I used a free icing bucket from walmart, a two dollar plate, an empty gallon jug and some cheese cloth I had laying around. After some searching I found a simple process for making kruat.
