Cape Cod Ginger sparkling, raw and organic drink product review

 

From Wareham, Ma, I get to enjoy some refreshing drinks from CapeCod Ginger.

My flavor was pomegranate, and I can't wait to tell you all about it. But first a little FYI about the company.

 

Richard Monroe is the driving force behind Cape Cod Ginger. It is a recipe that goes back to a family recipe. This is a lightly carbonated certified organic drink, that right now has six flavors, with more to come.

 

Now you can drink Cape Cod Ginger drink, hot or cold and I did it both ways. It is a nice low spice drink that had a ton of flavor. The carbonation was just as it stated, very low.

The ingredients for the ginger beverage is: Certified Organic, Prebiotic, Gluten Free, Non GMO, Vegan, Cold Pressed Ginger, Kosher, BPA Free and No High Fructose Corn Syrup, Raw Organic Cane Sugar.

 

Hot I made and added a slice of lemon and honey, and got a nice tea type beverage that was very refreshing. Even warm the spice kick remained the same, at a nice sophisticated level that was pleasant on the palate.

Drinking it cold was also a nice drink. The spice is not over powering at all, and you don't need to shake it before hand. Just open and drink. Just a nice rocking motion will bring the real ginger and fruit to mix.

 

This is a great drink if you have a upset stomach, takes that nasty feeling away. Not only fairly quick, but naturally.

 

There is no fructose corn syrup, its cold filled, and the spice level is mild. The flavor is very distinct and very refreshing.

 

Hot for the cold days, cold for the hot days, this drink will quench your thirst.

My flavor sent over by Cape Cod Ginger, was their pomegranate. You could see the fresh, real pomegranate on the bottom, that gives this drink a yummy taste.

 

Don't just take my word for it, try some of their flavors your self. To get some just visit their website. Or head over to Amazon!

Hatteras Saltworks Product Review

 

Have you ever used sea salt, I know for me its all I use. And today I am going to tell you about sea salt that is formed by solar oven, by the company Hatteras Saltworks.

 

Hatteras Saltworks has produced solar evaporated sea salt from the Caribbean to the Atlantic Ocean. They study the crystals, and use evaporation methods and practices to make the most pure sea salt they can. And now to do that, they do it from Hatteras Island. Bringing you a clean, mineral rich sea salt, from their solar oven farm.

Let me share with you, the meals I made using the great products sent over from Hatteras Saltworks. Great sea salt, that is pure, and natural as the sea itself.

 

First up, breakfast!

For breakfast, I used the pure sea salt, in my western omelet. This sea salt, like all of them is hand harvested, solar evaporated, unrefined, one hundred percent pure, and from Hatteras Island. The coarse sea salt sent was just the perfect size, nothing to huge, tiny shiny crystals of pure greatness. Sprinkling a tiny amount on to the warm omelet gave it a nice taste and crunchy texture when biting into it.

The pure sea salt is a great natural source of sodium. And is used not only in homes, but by many Chefs. It is also believed to be much more healthier for you. And being a little larger then table salt, you can use less.

For the pecan wood smoked seasalt, from Hatteras Saltworks, I made some bacon and sprinkled it over just before it was done in the oven. This sea salt, was cold smoked, by Hatteras Saltworks for eight hours and sourced with pecan wood. It gave the bacon a nice bite and smoky flavor. The flavor was nice and delicate, and had a sweet fragrance to it as well. This sea salt would be great for chicken, and other meats, as well as vegetables like carrots. The Hatteras Saltworks smoked pecan is a nice addition to your pantry.

To serve with my dinner, I made some bread, rosemary sea salt bread that is, with the rosemary sea salt from Hatteras Saltworks. Right before baking, I sprinkled the entire top of the bread dough with the rosemary sea salt. Not only did it give a amazing flavor, but a stunning look to the loaf. The Hatteras Saltworks, rosemary sea salt, has dried rosemary in it, that has been beautifully crafted. The blend is earthy and gives your dish a mouthwatering flavor and look. Use it for many different types of dish's, from meats, to olive oil dips. If you like flavored salts, you will find this one a wonderful addition in your kitchen.

Next as a side, I baked some kale, using Hatteras Saltworks, lavender sea salt. This sea salt is also hand blended, with a light touch of lavender. The aromatic flavor is a combo of natural pure sea salt and French lavender. It was a incredible seasoning to the kale, and worked! The infusion for this sea salt, was pure perfection. As for the kale, the lavender sea salt gave it the perfect zing. This sea salt with lavender would make any one in the kitchen, cooking, meals taste like they came from, a gourmet chef.

The main course of the dinner was a rib eye roast, coated with black pepper sea salt from Hatteras Saltworks. This is a sea salt that every cook should have on hand. The blend is so amazingly tasty, and the presentation it gave the roast was so sophisticated. There was no need for two shakers, the blend had the sea salt and black pepper ready to use. You don't get a overly black pepper taste, the blend is in perfect harmony. It gave my roast not only flavor, but a stunning crust.

Creamy Chicken Tetrazzini

 

A, chicken casserole has tender chicken, a creamy and tangy white sauce all tossed with egg noodles.

 

Ingredients

Chicken Tetrazzini:

 

 1 pound cooked shredded or diced chicken

 

 12 ounces cooked egg noodles

 1 pound baby Bella mushrooms, sliced

 ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

 ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs

 

Sauce:

 6 tablespoons butter, divided

 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

 2 cups low sodium chicken stock

 ½ cup sour cream (full fat)

 1¼ cups cream (half and half or whole milk)

 1½ teaspoon garlic powder, divided

 ½ teaspoon onion powder

 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese

 

Saute: In the center of the oven, place the rack; preheat the oven to 350oF. In a large saute pan, add a squirt of oil and sauté the mushrooms for 5-7 minutes over medium-high heat.

 

Sauce: In the same saute pan, add 3 tablespoons of butter and once melted, add the flour and whisk. Cook for 2 minutes to extract the flavor of the raw flour. Slowly stream about 1/4 cup at a time into the chicken broth as you whisk with your other hand. Enable the sauce to begin to bubble, then let it thicken for 3-4 minutes or until the back of the spoon is just coated. Lower the heat and apply the sour cream, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and onion powder to the lowest heat setting as you whisk to make a smooth sauce. The sour cream will curdle if the heat is too hot (fine to eat, but not as visually appealing.) Once the sour cream is mixed in the cream will stream in. For 2 minutes, kick the heat back to medium-high and allow the sauce to thicken.

 

Assemble: Detach from heat, stir and melt the cheddar cheese. As required, taste and change with salt and pepper. Noodles, sauteed mushrooms, and shredded chicken are folded in. Add the prepared tetrazzini to the pan by spraying a 9x13 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter in a small bowl, whisk in the parmesan, Italian breadcrumbs, and the remaining ½ teaspoon of garlic powder (if desired.) Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture uniformly over the casserole. Bake, 30-35 minutes uncovered or until brown and the sauce bubbles around the surface of the breadcrumbs. Brown for a few seconds under the broiler to darken the breadcrumbs further if you'd like. Serve warm, if desired, covered with chopped parsley.

Eileen's English Toffee Product Review

 

From her, mothers' recipe from, Camberly, Surrey, England, Eileen's English Toffee is made. In your mouth, it is made to crumble and not adhere to your teeth.

 

And that is the product I am reviewing today! Eileen's English toffee and a English Toffee brownie.

 

 

Eileen's English Toffee, from Camberly, Surrey, England, is made from an authentic family recipe. The texture and the taste is irresistible for sure.

The first product my family and I tasted was the Eileen's English Toffee, and the statement is spot on, it does not stick to your teeth, and slowly falls apart as you eating it. These are great gifts for any occasion or Holiday, but also just to have as a snack on hand. The English toffee comes in different size's, but after you taste it, you will want the larger size available all the time. In every bite you taste the love that went into making this English toffee. When you first look at a piece you think its going to be hard, but surprisingly, its not. It starts to melt in your mouth as soon as you put it in. It’s a nice crumble with ton's of flavor. You can eat the English toffee, add it to a shake, or crumble and use it for a cake topping, as I did.

With a nice hot cup of coffee it was time to try Eileen's English Toffee brownie. And it was so rich and luscious, with bits of English toffee in every bite. It was one of the tastiest brownies I have had in a while. Nice and butter, soft textured, with tasty toffee running all through it. A nice homemade tasting brownie. Makes for a great snack, or treat any time.

If you are interested in any of Eileen's English Toffee products head over to their website.

Nectar of Life Coffee Product Review

 

I got to enjoy some great coffee today, from breakfast to a mid day refreshment to dessert. The coffee I am talking about is from Nectar of Life.

From Oregon Coast, Nectar of Life makes organic, fair trade coffee. All their coffee is shade grown and certified organic fair trade. The founders, Martin and Hannah Jennings are the founders of Nectar of Life coffee, and have been so from 2003.

The Nectar of Life Coffee Co. manufactures the world's highest quality gourmet Arabica coffees. Coffees from the following countries are currently blended: Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, East Timor, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Sumatra, etc. Based on careful sampling, each coffee is selected. Unlike other coffee firms, before blending, Nectar of Life roasts each coffee separately into its own distinctive flavor profile. This technique is much more laborious than roasting a blend in a single batch, but the effort is more than worth the outcome. Each blend is heat sealed within hours of roasting in de-gassing valve fitted bags, ensuring a coffee that will taste freshly roasted for up to one year after roasting.

My coffee, from Nectar of Life coffee company, was the drip coffee, Americana. It was a nice blend, that was a sophisticated blend, and tasted fantastic. The aroma filled the house with a very inviting scent. The beans that make this coffee are gourmet Arabica and is a medium roast. It is very flavorful on the palate.

I had some with a sweet nutty roll for breakfast.

Also as a mid afternoon refreshment.

Then again after dinner with dessert.

 

The over tones are nutty and citrus flavors, that are well rounded and blended. And the aroma when dripping from the coffee machine, will really draw you in for a taste.

 

The coffee comes in two types of bags, heat sealed, or brown paper bags that are biodegradable. Also the coffee comes in 8oz, 16oz and 5lb sizes.

 

There is a ton of coffee types and flavors to choose from, also gift baskets and espresso machines, even travel mugs, all available from Nectar of  Life Coffee.

Kentucky Butter Crunch Cake

 

Kentucky Butter Crunch Cake, a cake to make! A butter pound cake is topped with a butter pecan glaze with the most optimal taste and crumb! I didn't even think this pound could get any better, but this glaze improves it completely and brings it to the next stage.

 

POUND CAKE

1 package (8-ounce) Cream Cheese, room temperature

1 1/4 cups  Butter, room temperature

3 cups granulated sugar

6  eggs, room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups cake flour

1/4 cups buttermilk, room temperature

 

BUTTER PECAN GLAZE

1/2 cup Butter

1 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla

1/2 cup chopped pecans

 

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Using butter and flour to prepare a large bundt pan or spray with non-stick spray.  Between both the height of the batter and the top edge of the pan, there should be at least 1 1/2 inches. Mix cream cheese and butter in the mixing bowl fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth, around 3 minutes. Can also use a hand-held mixer .

 

Gradually add sugar and beat until light and creamier.

Add eggs one at a time, with each inclusion beating well.

And in vanilla.  Apply the flour all at once and stir until all mixed together.

Add buttermilk and mix until just blended, with the mixer on low.

To get each last bit of ingredient added, remove the bowl from the stand mixer and scrape it with a rubber spatula.

 

Pour into the bundt pan that has been prepared. Bake in the oven for 1 hour - 1 hour and 20 minutes. Check for density within 1 hour. With a few crumbs, but no wet batter when the cake is baked, a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake must come out The crust will be a dark golden around the edges and light in the center. Set the cake still in the pan on a wire rack to cool slightly until glaze is ready.

 

PECAN GLAZE BUTTER

Add the butter, sugar and vanilla into a saucepan over medium heat.

Stir with a rubber spatula and allow a smooth consistency of butter and sugar to melt. Withdraw from the heat.

 

CAKE ASSEMBLING

Poke the warm pound cake using a fork and break up the bottom crust. Do this all over the cake that has been revealed. And over cake, pour HALF of the butter pecan sauce. Let it cool down to room temperature. Flip the cake carefully onto a serving platter after about 30 minutes.

Re-heat and apply the chopped pecans to the remaining butter glaze.

Only stir well. On top of the cake, pour the pecan glaze. Immediately serve.
