Good morning Nancy,
Loved the photo of Ditto! He is so cute!

For Kathy from L.I. in the 7/15 newsletter looking for Spatini Spaghetti Sauce I did a Google search and came up with: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Spatini+Spaghetti+Sauce&btnG=Google+Search

Looks like your prayers have been answered! Lawry?s has bought it out and is coming out with your sauce. Chris in NM

Hi Nancy,
I have a question regarding the Sausage And Rice Casserole submitted today (7/15/08) by Barb/De.

In the instructions it doesn't mention anything about the rice. When do you add it and is it to be cook or put in uncooked? Would like it make, but unsure about this. Please clarify. Thanks.

I fix this all the time.  I mix the uncooked rice in the soups and them add the rest of the ingredients in the casserole dish.

Other recipes that looked like ones that may be keepers in the Recipe for Two were: Chicken Grape Salad, Fruit Pizza, Ham and Cauliflower Casserole, Orange Julius, Strawberry Julius and Raisin Bread.

I was searching through the CopyCat Recipe section to find the Clone Recipe for the Hash Brown Potato Casserole and the Fried Apples recipes. Of course stopping there didn't work for me. Being a collector of recipes I had to check out the BBQ recipes too. Had hoped our member with the meatloaf recipe problem would post her story under the Kitchen Humor section. It is my favorite story as well.

Today I found the ham flavored concentrate by Goya, it is in a yellow (beige) box and there are 8 packets inside. Each packet says it provides the flavor of 1/4 pound of smoked country ham. Since we go to Winn-Dixie first and I found it there I bought it there for $1.59. They also have it at Wal-Mart (same package) for $1.27 so will get it there next time but it should last a long time. I plan to try it soon in green beans. Both stores had other flavors in the same type package. One side is in Spanish and says Sabor A JAM? De Concinar and shows a pig. Other side is in English and says Ham Flavored Concentrate with the same pig.

Was happy to find it and hope others that want it can find it as well.

How long should we let okra set up after we pickle it in jar before we can eat them thanks James

In the July 12th issue, Marylee from Indiana requested a source for Clear-jel. Clear-gel is not the same as Sure-jel which is used for making jams and jellies. Clear-gel comes in two types. One is for cooking /thickening and the other is for cold/uncooked recipes.
If you go on line to nichols@gardennursery.com, or call 1-800-422-3985 to order whatever amount that you need.

I recommend this product, which is a modified cornstarch. When used in cooking, you can reheat the food product and the thickened juices will not break down, as will cornstarch or flour. I have very successfully used this product to make canned pie fillings. Hope this helps.
