Brown Duck Coffee Quackin Blend

This is Chef Keith Snow’s daily coffee! Very rich and flavorful with a smooth finish, perfect for French press, pour-over, cold brew, or iced coffee-sip it up nice! A premier combination of Central and South American beans. This dark blend is roasted until the surface of the bean shows a hint of natural oil. The mellow smoky flavor with chocolate nuance is superbly aromatic. Post-Roast: Two different coffees roasted and then blended “post roast” create unique flavors.

FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS:

Impossible Foods To Launch a plant-based hotdog and will give them away in Manhattan soon. Find them here on Instagram

The giveaway marks the first taste of Impossible’s newest product, which promises a fresh but familiar take on the classic American hot dog and is set to launch in restaurants and grocery stores next year. The juicy, savory links offer a similar cooking and sensory experience to traditional animal beef hot dogs but are made with high-quality ingredients derived from plants.

Impossible Hot Dogs outperform the animal on several key nutritional metrics: they contain 50% less total and saturated fat than a leading brand of animal beef hot dog served in restaurants, in addition to featuring a whopping 12 grams protein (versus 6 grams) and 0 milligrams cholesterol.2 Unlike most animal-based hot dogs, the franks also contain no added or synthetic nitrates or nitrites, instead using only those naturally occurring in cultured celery powder.

TODAY’S MAIN TOPIC:

Spanish Basque cheesecake is a heavenly creation that exemplifies the virtues of simplicity and indulgence. With its burnished, caramelized top and velvety, custard-like center, this cheesecake is a testament to the power of minimalism. Unlike its American counterpart, Basque cheesecake requires no crust, allowing the luscious texture and rich flavors to take center stage. Made with just a handful of ingredients - cream cheese, sugar, eggs, cream, and a touch of vanilla - this cheesecake is uncomplicated yet incredibly decadent. Its subtle sweetness and slightly tangy flavor make it an irresistible treat for any dessert lover, while its rustic appearance and imperfect surface add a charming appeal. The virtues of Spanish Basque cheesecake lie in its ability to truly showcase the purity of its ingredients, providing an indulgent experience that is both comforting and elegant.

I love this dessert suffice to say, this cheesecake is the bomb! I’d say it’s much less fussy and a bit easier to make as it has no crust, and does not employ the bain marie.

HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI:

Crop Trials In Europe Spotlight Intercropping to prove this viable strategy for soil health and reduction in inputs. Luguminose is testing fields right now in several countries and so far, results are quite impressive.

INTERCROPPING: AN ANCIENT AGRICULTURAL TECHNIQUE

Intercropping is an ancient agricultural technique where two or more plant species are grown simultaneously in the same field. This method of farming can increase crop yields by up to 20% and improve soil health. The latter can reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers by up to 50%. Intercropping can also increase biodiversity, which increases the resilience of agricultural systems to climate change.

Overall, intercropping provides a sustainable and efficient way to produce food, as it increases the productivity of land while reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

Gabe Brown of Browns Ranch in Bismark ND has been doing this for years, however his cover crops and intercropping can be more diverse. He will seed a mix of clover with a cash crop of corn, the clover feeds nitrogen to the corn and also covers the soil to protect soil from the sun which prevents evaporation plus the additional roots on the soil stable and can prevent wind erosion, he can harvest the cash crop, then graze cows in the clover and corn resides, further feeding animals and the soil, a win-win for certain.

Here is an intercropping webinar….
