sergio09: I really like molasses. I make a really great shoo-fly pie!


I have not idea about the shoo-fly pie but I will google it although I have not a sweet tooth.



(not flies in it, right? laugh )

I know what a shoofly pie is (from the Amish).

Worth to try it, thank you!



Molly

I will pass on both grin

The highest alcohol that I could enjoy is 13 to 14 º GL as in table wine and the sugar cane juice is too sweet (I wonder why?) laugh

It is very rich, can only eat one slice. NO there are no flies in it. It became known as shoo-fly pie because in the days of old, women would put the pies on the window sill to cool. When a fly would land on the pie, the baker would "shoo" the fly away with a wave of the handprofessor

MimiArt7348: An ex-classmate back in high-school had cocoa trees in his dad's garden. He'd cut open the cocoa fruit and we'd then eat the seeds (?). It was sour tasting, not much to eat anyway. Just thin layer of sour pulp. We'd soon move on to chewing sugar cane!




I like eating that sour pulp off of the seeds, way more than eating sugar cane.

lifeisadream: Eating the cocoa seeds right from the big-pod is brave although I would imagine not pleasant, I never did it.




What's brave about tasting an edible fruit?

lifeisadream: Eating the cocoa seeds right from the big-pod is brave although I would imagine not pleasant, I never did it.

I am not familiar with the process of fermentation and the likes to prepare the cocoa beans it would be interesting to see it real and then get the cocoa beans just fresh.

For the sugar cane matter, my Father us to take us to a "molienda" where the sugar cane is processed and then they make molasses and make molds of solid molasses. We would bring some just made bread (bolillos) and then pour some hot molasses on them, that would be our treat, lovely memories.


All I know is they dried them cocoa seeds under sun for some time. I remember the smell, not a pleasant one all I can say uh oh


Have you tried sugar cane juice + coconut water? smitten smitten smitten wave
