Today's freezer meal. Shredded duck and duck stock turned into duck soup.



Gert

You could dehydrate (slow oven or in the sun)  a fair few of them Gert, and then blitz for flakes or powder; put as many as you can into a bottle and cover with sherry (makes an attractive looking gift, too!) ; freeze some; make pickles , e.g, http://www.aww.com.au/food/recipes/2005/4/pickled-chillies/ or http://shesimmers.com/2013/08/vinegar-with-pickled-chilies.html;  or http://www.burkesbackyard.com.au/factsheets/Food-Health-and-Nutrition/2UE-chilli-glut-tips-&-recipes/6065 (excuse the repetition, but it give a little more detail   )


I believe some foreign tourists can't even leave the bus the fumes are so great from these drying fields!! Don't know how they do it!

[gertbysea]

Thanks for that goldfish. I will dry in the sun a few even though I already have excess dried and flaked in the pantry from my last gift of chillies! Never have pickled them but may as well so thanks for that recipe. I am just about the only person I know who loves  chillies as much as I do. LOL!

I can't do much else at the moment as I have run out of sugar and am not going shopping until the first of May.

Denise, I use a metal rack to cover the kale.

So far have made chookies hot cross buns, yeast-free hot cross buns, tomato relish, cooked mayo and coleslaw. Still to come are the bimby chocolate (cup) cakes, five seed bread and the Mediterranean tuna and rice pie for dinner. (If it were a chilly day would be Jamie Oliver's Fish pie instead but a beautiful day here in Sydney ) Must say I'm quite impressed with the yeast free buns. Made in a flash and really nice. Bah Sorry one pic is upside down

All the cooking looks really good. Gert you are doing very well. We have heaps of chillies on our bushes so I must do some creating.
I am making some Hot Cross Muffin Buns from the BBC site. http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/3081/hot-cross-muffin-buns
They are looking good so far.

Here they are. We haven't tasted them yet, perhaps at afternoon tea.
These are delicious. They are a sort of brioche dough.  I will post the thermomix conversion.

[Bonsai]

Chookie's sourdough hot cross buns, sourdough loaf with crispy shallots and piripiri spice, hallumi and ricotta made with the whey.

[Kimmyh]

Raspberry cheesecake, chilli mussels and cheesy tuna strudels.

[judydawn]

They look very nice cookie.

[BeezeeBee]

Yes, very nice Cookie. Like your wrappers too. Where did you buy them? They look like baking paper but are not burnt.

[Cornish Cream]

Great looking Muffins Cookie.I see you reviewed them on the BBC website
