In our neighborhood are many fruit trees, where the fruit is not being picked and just falls to the ground or gets put out on the street by the gardeners. I talk to the neighbors and pick up the fallen apples to make apple sauce.
Anne Marie, like many of your readers, I prefer homemade stock or bone broth to store-bought. Rather than packing the stock in plastic, I'm looking for a glass substitute. Recommendations?
I have been making roasted tomato sauce with my tomato crop. I vary according to what I have in the garden: herbs, onion tops, cherry tomatoes, slicing tomatoes, olive oil, salt, and roast at 300 degrees till soft and reduced in liquid. I am using a food mill with the medium screen which removes skin but not much seed. It is an easy, rich sauce.
This is a fabulous post. Thank you so much. I’m going to see if I can get your book from the library or purchase it. Such brilliant ideas. I didn’t even realise that tahini was so simple to make. I will definitely try the coconut milk as well. Do you use glass containers for all your freezing?
I love all your ideas. I've just finished making my third batch of tomato sauce. I'm definitely going to try your homemade coconut milk. Although I am able to get good stuff at Costco for about 2 bucks a can. I also love making my own yogurt. I'm in Canada and pretty sure that food is more expensive than the US. All the more reason to try all your great ideas!

these are brilliant and I never thought to do my own coconut milk!
