Azure standard haul for November and as always a taste test!!! Also, how we store our oats in bulk.

[@AnneluvsKatz]

You did mention the honey is shelf stable. But just in case you didn’t know, it lasts FOREVER… never expires. Just FYI

[@meve531]

Azure hauls have become my addiction videos😂 i blame influencers like you (in the bestest way possible😂) and my lack of control for my latest $900 order...😬 hahaha enjoy your videos!!!

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

It is a bit of an addiction, I understand! 😅 I feel bad when I hit $200.

[@samanthacraft1077]

Haha mine too! I just started ordering from them 4 months ago, I am always interested in what people are getting and what they love.

[@ninagerulski8832]

😮

[@Maria-cy7xd]

Yes, Azure! Ours was at noon today! I got the potatoes and they look great! Not green! Can’t wait to try them!!

[@thebodieshomestead15]

EVERYONE is waking up....I had 23 people order from Azure for todays drop and ALL of us did not get everything we ordered. We did get the majority but I think people realize 2 things, Azure's food is clean, and stocking up/buying in bulk is a smart idea! Love the haul video as usual! :D

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I do agree!!! It’s gaining popularity for sure

[@joannahines6413]

I have really been enjoying your taste test! I think this a great idea. I order from Azure, but like to see what others get and what they really love or dislike. I think you should continue to do it! Thanks for all your videos. Can't wait to try my hand at some home made make-up. Great content. Keep it coming!

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Thanks! I am glad you like the taste test. I have already got some things picked out for the next one.

[@shaylaster1607]

This is one of my favorite videos that y’all do because I can’t get Azure- because should have two!!! so I live by curiously through you. Thank you for all the hard work y’all do.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I am glad you enjoy our hauls and taste tests!

[@normavaldez9164]

Love ❤Love when you do a taste test.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Thanks for the Azure haul and taste test. I’m new to your channel and also new to Azure. My first order is coming tomorrow and I bought some of the things you did. I did get the white block of cheese, so I hope we like it.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

It’s really good cheese honestly. It’s just a little different. I liked it and Shawn is a little more cheddar traditional.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

@ Tillamook is my gold standard for cheddar, since I live in the northwest. If I don’t care for this, I have children that might.

[@lauriedrake]

I love the calico cheese! We also tried the raw white cheddar and it didn't have much flavor to us. The calico is much sharper and melts perfectly, more like a true cheddar. I also got the #2 D'anjou pears last week. I found a bit of bug damage that I was able to cut around, but there were some that weren't usable. I canned up half the pears last night and got 9 pints, leaving all the peels, cores and damaged pieces for the deer. The deer polished off the scraps within an hour, and the canned pears held their shape and look great! Also, if you like chocolate almonds, try Azure's. I get a bag every couple months as my special treat, yum!

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

We had 4 unusable which wasn’t bad at all. We had a couple with big damage on the inside. They are so tasty! The calico cheese is much better.

[@robinm2457]

I love that cheese. So fresh and soft and flavors is awesome. So glad you are trying it

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

It’s super yummy!!!

[@ashleyporter9330]

I ordered the Calico as well! Our pickup is tomorrow! I always get so excited 😂

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I know, it's hard to wait! It's always fun to try new things from them.

[@jackicomber8534]

oh so wish we had something like azure in Australia!

[@LisaCarlson-cj5nm]

I've gotten the corn tortillas a couple times now - delicious and clean ingredients.

[@oleandb3525]

I grew up in the keys. Orange Blossom Honey has a different flavor from standard clover honey. I got Azure Orange Blossom and love it..brings back memories! If you ever see Lime Blossom Honey..get it!! Terrific in everything!!

[@cherylmeri5143]

I'm from Florida and orange blossom will always be my favorite! I guess because it's what I grew up on.

[@mrs.higgins3055]

I purchase both of those cheeses monthly and have for a year. They are DELICIOUS! I get the calico cheese in the two 5 lb blocks together. It's cheaper. We're a family of 9 with 3 teen sons. We go through lots of cheese. Have a blessed day.😊

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

A family of 9 is a big family, I can't imagine how much cheese you guys go through!!!

[@5boysmomma]

Im glad y'all are able to tell the difference in honey. I've never been able to. Or my pallette is very unrefined. 😮

[@DonnaVargas-v7t]

I would love to see how you make your dog food

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJCVmqqeopqWhtEsi=wkOnEJJm8u7_ZY1Y here you go. We have a second version that is grain free we will be posting soon.

[@franriley7660]

We love that cheese also. We have ordered it many times

[@Mel-vu9ss]

If you’re not aware you can do the sale thing you’re describing even further out. I’m not ordering in December but have a November sale item in my January cart. I got the same oats deal last month and got 15 lbs of cashew pieces coming tomorrow for $23. From the bargain bin.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I had no idea! Thanks for the info.

[@Mel-vu9ss]

@@LittleHillHomesteadGa your welcome. Thanks for all the great videos.

[@mamabird2434]

Azure has “ butter muslin” best cheesecloth I have ever used not loose like the “ cheesecloth “ they have great for straining broths etc.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I’ll go look it up now.

[@franriley7660]

I do use their taco seasoning mix for the convenience of not having to make my own. I dont measure exactly. But for 2 lbs of meat i add about a tbsp at a time and taste. It seems a little stronger than what i make. We really like it

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

We tried it last night and it was a little salty. I still like ours better but for those times I forget to make mine it will totally work.

[@franriley7660]

We have used gallons of the clover honey. Have never tasted it to be bitter. My husband loves it in his coffee

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I’ll have to get one to try

[@franriley7660]

Love mothers choice butter also

[@energygirl_444]

my first order is arriving next week

[@deemartinez519]

Drizzle some avocado oil, powdered garlic, powdered onion & black & roast then in the oven until you desire them I like mine cooked a lil longer it’s so delicious

[@Arcticdi]

We think that parmesan is the best ever! We order 4/month.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I just got two for the month but it’s the best! I wanted more but wasn’t sure what I’d do with 5 lbs.

[@hollycoley6993]

How do you freeze your fresh shredded cheeses?

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I shred and pop in a ziplock. Put in the freezer and remove when you need it. Let it defrost and you are good. It gets a tiny bit more crumbly but close to perfect.

[@eringraves5370]

Closest drop off to us is an hour or so away. Sigh. Will and I are gonna take a look at it though! Hopefully shipping wont kill us.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

It’s worth the drive or you can always start a new drop by reaching out to them. Just need a good place a truck can pull up to and a good place for a few people to part. Maybe like an office 😂

[@cheriwilliams7001]

I learned , during COVID, how to make brown sugar so I’m always looking for molasses. I wish I could get a bottle that big. Also, I never use Dawn dish liquid. It will ruin the skin on your hands.

[@shannonf.5350]

Orange blossom is my favorite

[@stephaniehill655]

I was thinking, would the baged frozen hashbrowns be canned up as canned potatoes?

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I have heard they can. I’m not a huge fan of canned potatoes but have a bunch we did over the years we add to soups.

[@samanthacraft1077]

We must be on opposite ends of the shipping, I can't get any citrus dish soap. 🤣 It's always sold out. You need to get their potatoes, they are amazing.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

That is so strange, they usually have plenty! I need to try their potatoes! I’ll add them for next month. Have to decide if I can handle 50 lbs!

[@peggykush6972]

May I suggest checking it in a few days. They restock items .

[@marieparks5674]

Walmart has cheesecloth, I don’t know how good it is though

[@alamryfarms754]

I like the Colby jack cheese, but we froze it in one pound blocks which I’ve done with other cheese, but this is kind of crumbly after thawing. I guess it’s okay because we are using this mostly for shredding, but it’s just weird to me.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Interesting! I vacuum bagged them and put them in the fridge. I figure we go though it fast enough. The super sharp stuff we got a couple months ago got crumbly like what you are describing. It’s okay because we are shredding it but I get it.

[@heathermiddleton4958]

I would be tempted to put the pizza spice in my homemade sauce.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

They have a spaghetti spice that I am looking at for next month. We’re actually releasing a video of our sauce soon!

[@sherryk5313]

Thanks

[@2HillHomestead]

So if you were buying honey from the farmer next door.. which of Azures is comparable? Thanks!

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

I’d say the orange blossom. The berry wildflower is delicious but much more mellow and less more like traditional honey. Both are amazing

[@ivebeenthere2115]

What’s the name of the big block of mozzarella again please? Want to buy?

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

It’s this one www.azurestandard.com/shop/product/food/cheese/mozzarella/plain/mozzarella-cheese-whole-milk/9302?package=CH064&a_aid=NUdIIxw1j0 the label is different in the pic but it’s the one we buy.

[@normavaldez9164]

Did you like the orange blossom honey???

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Loved it! 😍

[@peggykush6972]

I love the Orange blossom honey ! Such a treat.

[@normavaldez9164]

Please try the Stacey's tortillas

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

They were sold out. I tried and will again next month

[@sarahbusybeessbb4445]

I do have a question. I really want to order, and I know there is a drop close by. But, do u need to contact azure or the drop “contact” and join or something first? Or just order and show up?

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Click the link in my description. Add to your cart and checkout. You will get an email from azure once you order saying it’s shipped and it will arrive with the date and time. Sometimes the drop coordinator will email as well or some drops have a Facebook page. But ya, you basically order and show up. There are always tons of new people and you can usually just ask a friendly face for help with the process. It’s easy and I promise it’s fun after the nerves if the first drop day are done.

[@texasgrannieof2]

QQQ: do you receive a kickback for new people who sign up with AS? I saw a video on KZbin and this couple were asking people to sign up with their code? Do you have a code is my question? It’s because of your channel that I’ll be putting in my first order on Wednesday..please let me know! I’d like you to receive the credit for it if there’s anyway for that to happen. Thanks 💖

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

If you click the link below and spend $100 weeks do get a credit. We use those to buy the things we taste test. It’s only one time and it’s $25. We’ve only had two ever so not part of why we do it but we do appreciate it if you do ❤️

[@kathleenkendalljacksgrandm6902]

I tried for months and months to get an azure standard order. It failed.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Bummer!!! What happened?

[@donnamyhre5202]

I love Azure but can’t buy from them because I don’t drive.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Can you have someone take you? You might be able to ask the drop coordinator to ask if anyone is willing to give you life. I would if I was closer to you.

[@tinadelarosa8922]

Where do you buy your clothes? You and I have similar body types and I really like the way you dress. Thanks in advance.

@@JamieC444if it looks like something is out just leave it in your cart, if you have it in there. More times than not it ships. It’s rare for me to not get everything I order each month.

Which one?

[@cyn4rest]

Nice haul. We’ll be ordering the Calico (I think that’s it) cheese next time. QUESTION please: how do you shred your cheese? I can’t manage a handheld grater - bilateral hands disability. Just bought gizmo for our Kitchen Aid but haven’t tried it yet. Cheese gets “gummy” in our food processor. Maybe include a demo in one of your vids? I doubt I’m the only one challenged with cheese-shredding. lol. Thanks, Ali. Nice bag of oats! Have you tried getting Oat Groats instead? They store longer and significantly cheaper. MockMill makes a lovely Flocker. We love ours.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Hi Cynthia, haven’t seen you in a bit. We have the KitchenAid one and love it. We use this the most. amzn.to/3ArJNiA I have a very hard time with cheese graters! I have a bad right arm and it’s painful and I also love to grate my knuckles. We got this little grater a year ago and love it. We can do 6 lb block in like 10 minutes or less. You do have to spin and stop so the cheese falls out and doesn’t clog into the middle of the shredder part but usually one hand will spin and the other will move the cheese into a bowl so it doesn’t clog.

[@LittleHillHomesteadGa]

Oh and I did get groats last month to try in a small amount and haven’t opened them yet 😂
