Today I spoke about making various condiments at home. With the food shortages and supply chain breaking, certain items are not available and may be spotty in the future. Why not learn to make these items at home yourself and be free of the supermarket? Here are items I make at home: mustard (Dijon, yellow, whole grain) hot sauces (cayenne pepper, chipotle, green chili, etc.) mayonnaise sweet chili sauce pasta sauces dressings-vinaigrettes, ranch-yuk!, blue cheese, parmesan peppercorn, French, etc. horseradish cream teriyaki pickle relish different kinds of ketchup Visit this page on Harvest Eating for a bunch of videos Resources for this episode: Buy Harvest Eating Merch Enroll Now-Food Storage Feast Shop-Harvest Eating Store Harvest Eating On Telegram Harvest Eating on Mewe Harvest Eating on Instagram Harvest Eating on Facebook Harvest Eating Cookbook Harvest Eating Podcast Support Harvest Eating

In today’s show, I delve into creating a deep pantry at home. Essentially insulating you from many issues that are coming to our lives; food shortages, food inflation, shortages of just about everything. This is an excerpt from a long article/tutorial from Food Storage Feast that discusses creating a deep pantry. So why all this emphasis on the home pantry? As you will see and read, the well-stocked home pantry is one of the easiest and least painful of all investments. It does not require brokers, investment accounts, bank transfers, downside risk, tax consequences or the loss of use of your capital.  If you look at the average American home pantry you will see a small closet in the kitchen with some white wire shelves with roughly 10 sq feet of shelf space. Hardly enough to store a week of food. This set-up is found in the majority of homes. how did this happen? What happened to the large walk-in pantries that our grandparents had? How did we slowly give away our ability to cook and eat for long periods fr

On today’s show, I talk about making some simple cocktail snacks you can bring to a party or just nosh on at home. These are pretty basic but most people buy these….we need to collectively STOP buying stuff and START making stuff ourselves. Yes, I’m preaching to you…deal with it! It’s simple people…buy good olives, packed in water, and marinate them up…I buy canned CA green olives packed in water for about $2.69 per can…then season them up crazy good….people FLIP for these. I use the following: Fermented chilis, garlic, and onion Extra virgin olive oil NO SOYBEAN, NO CANOLA, NO VEGETABLE oils…c’mon man… CA garlic powder and onion powder Chili flakes Kosher salt Red wine vinegar Italian seasoning That’s it…you probably have this stuff in your pantry….these olive rock…they are nutritious and rather sexy if I say so myself! As far as the onion dip…I do this…. 1/2 cup Daisy sour cream 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce (damn I never spell that right…spell check to the rescue!) 1 tsp onion powder

Today I will be trying to inspire you to create simple family-style meals using inexpensive proteins and starches. With food prices on the rise, many families need some inspiration to keep things interesting, tasty and not break the bank. Today I will focus on the following foods to use as a starting point: Ground Beef Chicken Thighs Rotisserie Chicken Black Beans Rice I won’t go into super detail on each recipe idea rather just go over some of the basics and ways to switch them up to make simple meals your family loves. Here are some of the ideas I’ll speak about: meatballs, meatloaf, taco salad/Burritos, stuffed peppers, stuffed cabbage with tomatoes over rice Thai chicken over rice, butter chicken, skewers with peppers, onions, grilled over rice Chicken salad, chicken caser salad, chicken noodle soup, use carcass to make stock Black beans and rice, black bean, roasted squash, cheese burritos, taco bowl, rice beans, ground beef, avocado, cheese, tomato, black bean chili, black bean burg

On today’s show I will discuss winter squash, the wonderful “fruit” that if grown and cured properly can last many, many months in storage making winter squash some of the most beneficial crops to grow on your homestead, farm, or home garden. I have limited experience growing winter squash but hope I can learn to get a bountiful harvest in the years to come.

Today I am speaking about another great one-pot meal, arroz con pollo. In Latin America, this is a staple dish that is as common as spaghetti and meatballs stateside! Most Latin cooks will put their own twist on this dish but you can be sure it will contain some similarities; one being the use of soffrito, a simple seasoning mix of onion, garlic, cumin, peppers, cilantro that is found commonly in the refrigerators in the kitchens of Latin cooks. The best chicken for this is bone-in skin on, thighs, wings, and drumsticks. The recipe is simple and takes about 30 minutes to get the whole thing in the oven. You will need a few ingredients you may not have, one being Goya Saizon….a packet seasoning mix that brings much flavor and color. If I left it out I’d get some serious hate mail, so I am using it! You can find it on Amazon, see the link above, or in most grocery stores in the International section where Goya products are found. I love adding pimento-stuffed green olives that I slice and toss in this dish, th

Each year in late summer I usually make corn chowder. Some years I make it thick, some years I make it smooth, this year I made it using some chile peppers and bacon. This soup is best with fresh corn and I always use NON-GMO sweet corn. You can use canned corn but it will be slightly less flavorful. By all means, if you‘re reading this in January, just used canned corn…not a problem. In this version, I used some Jalapeno and poblano peppers, which really added a nice “grassy” flavor plus a tiny bit of heat. I like to garnish with Cotija cheese and cilantro.

So here is episode #439 that I had chosen not to post but I have heard from many of you saying you want the personal update on the Cape Cod trip...so, here it is. After the update this is the same episode as the 439 meatball episode that proceeds this one...so, you only need to listen to this if you want to hear about Cape Cod.  

In today’s show, I talk about my Sicilian Style Meatballs which are a great alternative to boring “regular” meatballs. You can find the recipe here.

Today I am speaking about the Tartine, a simple European sandwich that is open-faced. You can make these with so many ingredients which makes them very versatile. The key here is using terrific bread; I suggest sourdough or seeded dark rye sourdough I've eaten these with simple toppings like cured salmon with cream cheese and dill, salami and cheese, drained ricotta with radishes, etc. Show Website: https://www.harvesteating.com/podcast-1/2021/8/3/episode-438-tartine-open-faced-sandwiches Resources for this episode: Buy Harvest Eating Merch Enroll Now-Food Storage Feast Shop-Harvest Eating Store Harvest Eating On Telegram Harvest Eating on Mewe Harvest Eating on Instagram Harvest Eating on Facebook Harvest Eating Cookbook Harvest Eating Podcast Support Harvest Eating

In today’s show, I discuss some basic methods of canning such as water bath & pressure canning and some ideas of what foods lend themselves to each method. I also discuss using fermentation in all its forms to preserve foods for later consumption as well as increased nutritional values and fewer anti-nutrients. Also included below is a basic sour pickle recipe, see recipe on Harvest Eating website. I have been practicing many types of preservation since 2004, these include: water bath canning pressure canning dehydrating freeze-drying fermentation cheesemaking & yogurt making cultured dairy (creme fraiche, clabber, butter, marscapone, etc.) Through these trials I’ve made many great things, and some not-so-great things. But in the end, my ability to preserve foods for later consumption or simply to improve their taste, texture, or nutritional content has grown substantially. I find these home-ec projects to be very fun & rewarding. My hope is this episode gets you interested in

Recipe for shrimp burgers at bottom of this page! On today's show, I discuss creating your own food system that is free from corporate control and systems that we attempting to control our entire food system. Consider this: the US beef supply is 85% controlled by 4 companies and these companies are openly advocating for non-meat foods, fake meat, and the end of factory farming. At the outset, this sounds promising as CAFO systems (concentrated animal feeding operations) are not beneficial for the environment, the animals, the workers, and in most cases, the neighborhoods they exist in. I have visited the northern Colorado town of Loveland and Ft. Collins many times in the last 20 years and depending on the wind direction the stench from Greely CO can be smelled over 25 miles away. That stench is from the JBS slaughterhouse facility in Greely. Trust me, CAFOs and industrial slaughterhouses are disgusting places no matter the protein, beef, chicken, pork, lamb, etc. I have advocated for direct farm purchas

On today’s show, I discuss the western drought situation and bring some up-close and personal experience to this as I live in one of the hardest-hit areas in the west, Utah. NOTE:  The powers that be will use this drought to pound the table on carbon emissions and “climate change“ a natural cycle, as a means to an end. That end is eliminating fossil fuels, promoting electric cars, and stopping animal agriculture and traditional family farming. So, while we have a drought, be mindful it fits their climate change narrative so they will make lots of news about it. I want you to be informed! We are experiencing a serious drought out here in the west, the last two winters had very low snowpack in most areas so there was little to no spring runoff or melt. In the west, we rely on snowpack to fill our reservoirs, not rainfall. In my town we average about 9 inches of rainfall per year, so far in 2021, we’re under 3 inches according to most estimates. Basically, it never rains yet we irrigate golf courses, yards, park

In this episode, I will be talking about stretching your meals to feed more people using inexpensive ingredients and some protein to make healthy tasty meals. We practice this often at the Snow house especially this summer when we have an extra kid staying with us. My calculations show it’s possible to feed 6-8 people a very nice meal for under $5 per person, try that at a restaurant! Today’s dish comes from the Cuban culture, Cuban rice n Beans, it’s served at every Cuban restaurant and is a staple of many Latin diets. It’s simple to prepare with humble ingredients and can be on the table in 30 minutes flat. It will also feed a small army! In many Latin homes the veg component is fortified with soffrito; a mixture of onions, garlic, oregano, tomato, and Sazon a seasoning by Goya you can find in just about every market. This soffrito mixture is as varied as Latin culture itself, no two cooks use the same soffrito.     Resources for this episode: Food Storage Feast Harvest Eating Store Harvest Eating On Telegr

Inflation is not a word most Americans are used to hearing on a daily basis. I’ve been talking about it on this site and on my podcast for a long time because I knew the laws of economics could not be stifled forever and with a dovish Fed, it would arrive sooner or later. Well, it’s here now and people who have been in the dark are finally understanding what this word means to them-less money! Recently, I paid $14.33 for a package of three chicken breasts at my local store. Granted this is the nicest of the local stores but c’mon…..$14 bucks for a couple of factory-farmed chicken breasts? Seriously? What a joke. When Biden says he will only “tax the wealthy” to pay for his big-government garbage what he does not tell you is that inflation is a tax on the lower to middle-income Americans, basically theft. Everything costs more and for people who live paycheck-paycheck (over 40% of people), this is a major drag. I suggest you see this article written by my friend Michael Synder for more data. Being prepared

On today’s show, I give a basic update on my life, what I have been doing for the last 2 years, and then discuss my current plans for the future of Harvest Eating and our products, website, etc. I discuss..... Harvest Eating Spices Thoughtful Harvest Vegan Parmesan Cheeses Thoughtful Harvest Premium Pasta Sauces. Food Storage Feast Towards the end, I will provide the basic road map for Migas, one of my absolute favorite breakfast or brunch dishes. Directly translated from Spanish, the word “Migas” means ‘crumbs’. And in the culinary world, “Migas” can mean many different things. For me, Migas is the perfect breakfast, Tex-Mex inspired, easy, filling, and best of all; very satisfying. You start with some fat in a skillet and saute minced white onions, then add salsa (I like spicy hatch chile salsa from El Pinto), and/or minced peppers, beans if using, beaten eggs, crumbled tortilla chips, sharp cheddar or Jack cheese, then topped with cotija cheese, sour cream or crema and avocado. You wind up with

A simple recipe for a delicious salad made with Mexican Street Corn or Elote which is grilled and topped with chili powder, Cojita cheese, and usually mayonnaise.  This being a salad has a cilantro crema as the dressing, super easy to make.

On this episode of Harvest Eating, I discuss a not so famous Thai noodle dish called Pad Mee Korat. It's a better version of Pad Thai IMO. This dish hails from northeastern Thailand and uses pretty basic ingredients except the fermented soybeans, which are readily available in most Asian stores. The tricky part of this is NOT burning the sugar mixture, if that happens start over!  This dish is sweet, spicy, and has amazing minced pork, bean sprouts, garlic chives, shallots, and garlic too! Pretty much a symphony of flavors and textures, such a great dish! I will be posting a recipe at Harvest Eating soon!
