KNEADED BUTTER ??? ~~~ Who Knew ? ~~~ Shared by JoAnn Hafen Granger

 Have You Ever Kneaded Butter???

I was explaining to a friend on the phone how to make gravy the other day. I said I now use a sifter and sift the flour or thickener into the pan and it decreases lumps (nothing worse than lumpy gravy). Now this tip pops up. I was not aware of kneaded butter and flour. Make some gravy this week!

Tip:

For any one who has trouble making gravy or thickening soups, stews or sauces without lumps or trouble making a roux.

Kneaded butter (french name Beurre manié) is made by mixing equals parts of softened butter and flour.

This dough or paste is used to thicken sauces, soups, and stews.

By kneading the flour and butter together, the flour particles are coated in butter.

When the mixture is whisked into a hot or warm liquid, the butter melts, releasing the flour particles without creating lumps.

Kneaded butter is similar to, but should not be confused with a roux, which is also a thickener made of equal parts of butter or many other oils and flour, but is cooked before use.

kneaded butter is also used as a finishing step for sauces, imparting a smooth, shiny texture.

You can use kneaded butter for anything you would use roux to thicken or make, or you’d use flour to thicken.

Bad Parrot ~~~ Shared by JoAnn Hafen Granger

 

BAD Parrot

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse  vocabulary.

Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to 'clean up' the bird's vocabulary.

Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer.
For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed.
Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.

Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out
onto John's outstretched arms and said 

"I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. 

I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do

everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."

John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude.

As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior,
the bird spoke-up, very softly, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING  EVERYONE!
