Here's the full recipe: 😊 Pizza Crackers makes about 100 crackers INGREDIENTS 4 tablespoons Vital Farms unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 8 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more for sprinkling on top 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons dried oregano, plus more for sprinkling on top 1 teaspoon granulated garlic 2 tablespoons tomato paste 1-2 tablespoons ice water INSTRUCTIONS 1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter, cheese, salt, flour, oregano, granulated garlic, and tomato paste and pulse until a crumbly dough forms. With the food processor running, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of water, adding the remaining tablespoon if needed until the dough just comes together. 2. Divide dough in half and wrap each in plastic wrap and flatten dough into discs. Refrigerate for an hour, until firm. 3. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside. 4. Working with one disc of dough at a time, roll out into a thin rectangle, about 1/8th of an inch thick. Transfer the dough to the parchment-lined sheets. Using a ruler of something with a straight edge and a pizza cutter or knife, cut rectangle into a grid of 2-inch squares. 5. Sprinkle lightly with salt and more oregano. Bake crackers for about 12-15 minutes, until crisp and golden around the edges. Let cool for about 10 minutes then break into crackers. Transfer to an airtight container.
It's no secret that pasture-raised eggs are more expensive, but to be able to eat an egg knowing that it didn't get to your plate at the expense of another living thing's suffering is worth it. Factory farms are a 21st-century testament to the extent of humanity's capacity for self-serving cruelty. Farmers who sell pasture-raised eggs are being responsible stewards of the animals in their care, and helping us live in harmony with this world.
I always see people doing the swirl and vinegar method, what’s that all about? Is the vinegar for flavor, or does it have a different property for the actual cooking process?
Great question! The swirl helps to whip the eggs whites around themselves to hold together better, and the vinegar similarly, helps to firm up the egg whites and bind them together more. 😊

Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl and brush the borders of the pastry squares. 7. Arrange about 5 plum slices on top of the frangipane of each square. 8. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until the squares are puffed and golden-brown.
Providing the best possible care for the calf is our farmers’ top priority. Our supplier’s network of family farms follows industry standards with cow-calf separation. Dairy cows do not always make the most attentive mothers. If a calf is having health issues and is mixed with the herd, by the time the farmer notices, it may be too late to help the calf bounce back to normal. As our farmers rely on their cattle to be domesticated, it is important to begin building that bond and become comfortable around humans at an early stage in life. The family farmers in our supplier’s network raise their female calves to be milk cows within the herd. The calves are fed their mother’s colostrum after birth which helps jump-start their immune system, and additionally, milk is given to many of them via a bottle or bucket. This helps the calves form essential bonds with humans at an early stage and ensures optimal health and nutrition while minimizing stress. Our supplier makes certain this is the case by requiring wellness checks and a veterinarian-client-patient relationship form signed and an up-to-date herd health plan.

Actually dairy cows are good mothers it’s just very sad that their babies are taken away from them .. how can u expect them to be good mothers if you don’t give them their babies to mother ? Very sad that the dairy industry does this.. I’m sorry but I don’t agree with this method of treatment for these animals. They are impregnated just to produce milk for humans not their own babies..
