Catching up on Exchange Alley
Please hang on for the ride to Exchange Alley this week, because there's quite a bit of catching up to do. First...
NOT RETAIL: To those who asked about buying Turnbull Melba toast, Turnbull Bakery is a commercial bakery, as stated in the cover story last week , and the product is only available through food service suppliers. It is not a retail product sold in supermarkets.
CREOLE TOMATO JAM: Several readers sent in variations of this query: "I made the Creole Tomato Jam and really liked it, " writes J.H. "We served it over cream cheese. My question is: Can this be processed in a water bath and preserved? If I am lucky with fall tomatoes, I would like to make some for Christmas gifts. Thanks."
The recipe for the Creole Tomato Jam I created made only one cup, so I didn't even try to put it in a water bath. S o far my efforts to bump up the size -- and to create a recipe suitable for putting in the newspaper -- have not yielded fruit.
If any of you have been experimenting with this recipe, please share your results (good or bad)...My email is jwalker@timespicayune.com .
ANOTHER CANNING RECIPE: "With preserving and canning coming back into fashion, and cooking pears on area trees reaching their peak, I thought you might like a recipe I cut from The T-P back in the early '60s. Today, my teenage granddaughter and I made a batch. She's planning to share the jars with her family and friends.
"I've updated the recipe slightly because of recommended changes in processing, " K.L. writes.
Pear-Pineapple Jam
Makes 6+ half pints
5 cups sugar
3 cups pears, peeled, cored, chopped
1 large orange, peeled, seeded and chopped
3/4 cup (8-ounce can) crushed pineapple, drained
1/4 cup chopped nuts
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 package powered pectin (Sure Jell)
Measure sugar into a separate bowl. Place fruit, nuts and lemon juice in a Dutch oven and stir in the pectin. (Add 1/2 teaspoon margarine to reduce foaming, if desired.) Bring mixture to a full rolling boil on high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in the sugar and return to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Speckled trout roe. How do you cook it? A correspondent asked me after her fishing friend remembered eating the roe as a kid but couldn't remember how it was cooked. They wound up dipping it in egg and flour, then sauteing.

When I go by her place to buy eggs, I enjoy watching the speckled chickens strutting about, pecking bugs from her rolling lawns. Their eggs are beautiful: The shells range in hue from blue-tinged to cinnamon; some shells seem spackled, others smooth.
