Prickly pear syrup and jelly
My Rights As An American replied to My Rights As An American's topic in Cooking Wild Foods
Half prickly pear juice, half any other fruit (I like blueberry and raspberry)—crush and mix the fruit. Strain the juice for a jelly, do not strain for a jam (my preference) equal amount sugar about half cup lemon juice for each few cups of fruit juice pectin per instructions Bring fruit to a rolling boil with lemon juice. Stirring constantly. Add the sugar and return to boil for a couple minutes. Add pectin. Stir constantly. Return to boil. Stir constantly. Instructions say to boil for exactly one minute and then spoon into jars. However, I have found it does not set as well in my experience. I will slowly boil and skim off the foam for an additional 20-30 minutes, stirring to keep the mixture from burning until the mixture starts to gel on a spoon in the freezer for a few minutes. Then pour into hot, clean jars to 1/4 inch from the top. Seal firmly and flip over, I do not use a pressure canner. Never found the need, this has worked every time. Super easy. Hardest parts are juicing prickly pear and cleanup. Juicing prickly pear: singe off prickers with propane torch on both sides. Rinse in bucket and swirl to remove extras missed. Cut off both ends and split in half. Then stick in blender with a bit of water to help pull out juices. Strain three times or use a pillow case to allow juices to drain through. Does not stain pillow case at all! cleanup: you are on your own with that one! Hot water the moment you are done as everything is now sticky! -

Should have taken more pics but did not. This batch turned out amazing! Will do some more in two weeks if I can get out again. Few tricks learned each time I do it to minimize effort and time while maximizing product. Quite simple recipe and more than worth it to make your own and share with friends and family! -

Dang, that cricket is pretty cool looking! -
This is also the reason why I like to “welcome” all new people who post to the classifieds as their first post, to let everyone else know to be a bit more aware as a brand new member with no history here. Buyer beware on most of these.

Shouldn’t 1200$ (Not $1200) give you a clue that it is a scammer, probably from another country?

Just drop everything in its tracks on every shot. Never missed yet. Not once. Just kidding. Combo of mental pictures of everything in the surrounding areas of where I shot from to where I shot to. Never really failed with that process in 30 years of big game hunting. Small circles until sign is found then lots of very slow searching without trampling your path. Always looking backward to see where an animal went forward.

Are you providing the grease and just need someone to do the work? Sorry, after the other topic on turf installation I just had to! -

Ever regret passing on a shot?
My Rights As An American replied to broadhead's topic in The Campfire
My rule that I pass on to my kids is to never regret a shot that you did not take. There was a reason you did not take that shot and if you had, it may have led to bad results. Never regret a shot you did not take. -
So as long as it is parked and not moving? About all a Ford is good for anyway. Oops. Did I just say that out loud?
