We will rock the kitchen with some great Cajun Foods, Easy Recipes, Canning and Food Storage. Most of these dishes are from my childhood.. Growing up in a large Cajun family left us with lots of memories of wonderful food and fellowship. So you may see any type of recipe on here.. Even baked goods and sweets.. We will now be posting family fun also. Including family, trips and just anything fun.
Thank you soo much for the recipe and the instructions.. To be honest, this is my first time watching this candy recipy. Never heard of it. Thanks again dear. Gonna try it ❤
My grandma and my mom taught me the string test and it never fails me. Dip your spatula or spoon in your mixture while it’s boiling and hold it over the pot , let the mixture drip off the spoon until it’s almost gone then watch to see if it starts leaving a hard string like a spiderweb. When it forms a long string that don’t drop off the spoon it’s ready. Also when pouring the hot mix in the egg whites we always poured a slow steady stream while the egg whites were mixing until it all was in. Then turned up the mixer and let it go until it wasn’t glossy. It’s a wonderful thing though when you have more than one way of doing something.
My mother used to make divinity with a hand mixer; she flavored it with cherry Jello. I think I was lucky enough to have had 2 pieces in my entire life, lol. Watching how much time it takes I get it! She hasn't made it for at least 20 years. Thank you for sharing!
Looks good when done. My mother used to take Marchino cherries and chop them up real small and put inside of those before you took it off the stove and they were so pretty and hers was still a little shiny. They looked beautiful. She also used pecans chopped up in them, and that was very good to a different batches. She may different.
The divinity you made looks scrumptious but your video you put on fast speed of voice and the slowing down on voice low is a bit annoying 🤷🏼♀️but! your recipe you made it look so easy 👍🏼 thank you I will try it :)
I am so sorry. I had trouble with the filming and the camera. I was trying to show it in real time. I know it was annoying for you. I apologize. Try the recipe and technique. It will be a delicious candy for you. Have a blessed day.
You take far too much time fussing with where to put things. If you don't get that candy out of the bowl and onto a flat surface it will harden in the bowl, so you gotta' move it along quickly.
I’ve got a very important question that I’ve been asking different people and cannot get a answer to. When you water glass eggs and you have additional liquid in the jar can you still put the eggs in the jar? Also I was told that you supposed to use the first ones you put in there first, there’s no way you can get the bottom eggs out first so what do you recommend on that. I just got my first two hens starting my chicken Journey thanks for any thing you can help me with
@@CrazyCajunLiving I just finished making it. I had to stop my kitchen aid mixer throughout the process like you said… and now they are on the wax paper setting up. Yum!
@@Jabeye it really is super easy and delicious. I couldn’t imagine beating that by hand. Bless our grandparents for their delicious candy and the patients and effort that it took to make it. I will be posting more recipes soon. Thank you for stopping by. Hugs and Crazy Cajun love 💕
Divinity will be the death of me. Over the years I have tried and failed more than I can count lol. I might try this though! You cook yours to a higher temperature than most of the ones I’ve tried, so I’m wondering if most recipes give too low of a temp. 🤔 Thanks for posting!
Hi, everytime Ive ever tried to make this candy, I failed but I would really love to have some of this for Christmas, so I'm going to give your recipe a try, I will just be tickled if it comes out like yours, so wish me luck on it, and I will let you know how it turns out, oh one more thing, it is a rainy day out so i hope you are right about that not making a difference ,So here I go, I'm going to give it my best shot. 👍
Looks good. I put shredded cheddar cheese on mine. Along with the corn chips. I am going to put refried beans in my chili next time I make it. I appreciate you sharing.😊
Gina Evans Thank you so much for the sweet comment. I love chili 🌶. I totally forgot to sprinkle my cheese on it. Yummm I love cheese on it. Hugs Sherry Ann
Thank you! I bought three of these traps at a garage sale and didn't know how to bait them. I tried sugar water alone, and all I got was flies. I'll try baiting with lunch meat, in addition to the sugar water.
Oh I've never seen garlic paste. Looks great I always add my sausage later because I've found the sausage turns darker if u add to soon I put it in when half way thru
