The Homemade Pantry
Author: Alana Chernila
Publisher: Clarkson Potter
ISBN: 0307953262
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
“This is my kitchen. Come on in, but be prepared—it might not be quite what you expect. There is flour on the counter, oats that overflowed onto the floor, chocolate-encrusted spoons in the sink. There is Joey, the husband, exhausted by the thirty-five preschoolers who were hanging on him all day, and he is stuffing granola into his mouth to ease his five o’clock starvation. There are two little girls trying to show me cartwheels in that miniscule space between the refrigerator and the counter where I really need to be.” In her debut cookbook, Alana Chernila inspires you to step inside your kitchen, take a look around, and change the way you relate to food. The Homemade Pantry was born of a tight budget, Alana’s love for sharing recipes with her farmers’ market customers, and a desire to enjoy a happy cooking and eating life with her young family. On a mission to kick their packaged-food habit, she learned that with a little determination, anything she could buy at the store could be made in her kitchen, and her homemade versions were more satisfying, easier to make than she expected, and tastier. Here are her very approachable recipes for 101 everyday staples, organized by supermarket aisle—from crackers to cheese, pesto to sauerkraut, and mayonnaise to toaster pastries. The Homemade Pantry is a celebration of food made by hand—warm mozzarella that is stretched, thick lasagna noodles rolled from flour and egg, fresh tomato sauce that bubbles on the stove. Whether you are trying a recipe for butter, potato chips, spice mixes, or ketchup, you will discover the magic and thrill that comes with the homemade pantry. Alana captures the humor and messiness of everyday family life, too. A true friend to the home cook, she shares her “tense moments” to help you get through your own. With stories offering patient, humble advice, tips for storing the homemade foods, and rich four-color photography throughout, The Homemade Pantry will quickly become the go-to source for how to make delicious staples in your home kitchen.

Book Description
DIY 101 Yummy Organic e-Juice Recipes 101 Delicious e Liquid, e Juice & Vape Juice Recipes You Can Make Today Lately, my new found obsession is everything Organic, especially vaping organic e-juice. I am an avid vaper and have been vaping, selling, importing, retailing, wholesaling e- cigarettes for last six years now. But this is not about my success or failure in business; it is about vaping the yummy e-liquids. Let me ask, have you tried any organic e-juice yet? Well if you haven't, you are missing out and I think you owe it to yourself to at least make a few flavors yourself and try it. You may ask why I should make my own when I can just order from an online retailer right? In case you haven't noticed, the prices of e-liquids have doubled in last two years, especially if you are buying the USA made organic e-juice. Last time I bought a 30ml bottle of an organic e-juice I paid $27.50 plus shipping!! I have been making my own e-juice for four years now, and I suggest you try making a batch too. Trust me it can be an awesome and fun experience to be able to create something you can call your own brand. But more importantly, the cost savings can be reason enough that you would want to start making your own. Just to give you an example, to make a 30ml bottle of any flavor of organic e-juice at home can cost you around $3-$5 depending on what flavoring you use. Now to buy same the quality and quantity e-juice from any reputable online or local retailers can cost you $20-$28. The difference is $23! When you vape a store bought liquid, do you ever say, "I wish they added one more drop of menthol or little more coffee flavor to this juice"? Well when you make your own, you don't have to wish that anymore, just add more or be more creative and mix a few recipes together and come up with a unique one that has your signature on it. If you end up making a few great recipes, you can even start your own brand and try to market them as premium organic e-juice, online and have a business that you never thought you would have. The possibilities are endless! Preparing your perfect eJ uice recipe and getting all the ingredients in the right quantity is quite a bit of work. Experimenting with making your own e-Juice can thus, result in a tenuous experiment that drains your energy in the end and leaves you shoving it aside, only to find yourself saving and spending money on pre-made e-liquids that you are bound to buy. But wait, things don't have to be that bad, and you don't have to exhaust yourself trying to perfect your eJuice recipes. I have gone through the trouble for you because I was keen to learn and perfect my art of eJuices for myself and my friends, and I'm ready to share it here with you! What does this book include? This book covers the basics of preparing e-Juices by yourself as well as the ingredients that are required in detail. Once you understand the basics of the ingredients, we will cover the equipment required, which isn't much. It is easy, and you can do it with a bit of effort. Next up, once you are ready, you can get started with the recipes where I bring tried and tested e-Juice recipes to you that are sure to elevate your vaping experience to a whole new level. You will find it interesting to explore e-Liquid Recipes in the Following Flavor Categories: Real Fruit Flavored e Juice Recipes Bakery Flavored e Liquid Recipes Yummy Dessert Flavored Vape Juice Recipes Sweet Candy Flavored e Juice Recipes Truly Awesome Drink Flavored e Liquid Recipes Now I'm sure you're excited to get your hands on your eJuice in these exciting recipe flavor categories, so without further ado, let's get started.
