WHY we stopped shopping at the grocery store + Azure Standard Haul for a Year (large family of 10)
So many have had questions about our "Year Without the Grocery Store" Challenge. I have more information on this over on my Instagram @thefromscratchfarmhouse but plan to share more here as well. Today I'm diving into those questions as I complete some homemaking projects in my fall farmhouse. Shop Azure Standard here (I am an affiliate, but was a customer for nearly 10 years prior to this) https://www.azurestandard.com/?a_aid=XUWocvaRWF Other Azure Standard videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHpbfujr7MD9MpiPpqxdFFv__1teqUvSh&si=nXq_zIoGrchhX9XL Meal Planning video: Create a Long-term Meal Plan for Food Self-sufficiency On Your Homestead - Groceries for a year! https://youtu.be/JqDrUVDm3lU Recipes: Learn to make applesauce the easy way here: https://youtu.be/pvm2yLfA07U?si=V6VQ-sQMul5Rvh3K Easy and Delicious Buns Ingredients: 2 T soft butter + 6 T melted 2 lg. eggs 7 cups a.p. flour 2 T active dry yeast 2 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 cup sugar 2 cups lukewarm water 1. Add all ingredients except the 6 T melted butter to a stand mixer and knead until soft and smooth. Alternatively, you can mix and knead by hand. 2. Cover and let rise 1-2 hours, or until almost doubled. 3. Gently deflate and divide into 16 (3.5 oz.) balls. Shape into a round ball, flatten to about 3" across. 4. Place buns on a lightly greased baking sheet, cover, and let rise about 1 hour. 5. Brush buns with half the melted butter. 6. Bake at 375 degrees F for 15-18 min., until golden. 7. Remove from oven, brush with remaining butter, and cool on a rack. Homemade Cream Cheese (Better than store bought!) Ingredients: 1 cup cream 1 cup whole milk mesophilic culture 1. In a quart-size mason jar combine 1 cup cream and 1 cup whole milk. 2. Stir in 1/8 tsp. mesophilic starter culture (on Amazon or cheese supplies stores) 3. Cover jar with a clean towel or coffee filter and rubber band and set in a warm place for 8-12 hours or until it resembles thick yogurt. I put mine in the oven with the light on overnight. 4. Pour the thickened cream into a piece of clean cheesecloth, tie the ends, and hang in the fridge above a bowel. I use a chip clip to clip it to the side of my bowl. Let the whey drive for 2-3 hours or until your desired consistency is achieved. 5. Remove the cream cheese from the cheesecloth, salt to taste, and store it refrigerated for 7-10 days.
