[@smalltownhomestead]

Oh how your video brought me joy and a moment of peace! My husband is in the hospital with no indication of when we will go home. Thank you so much for this video! You made my day!

[@fanniegeneshomestead]

This is literally how I was raised and completely forgotten about it brings back memories for me

[@lindascott6637]

I have make powered sugar before and love it. I need to try the brown sugar. I also have a recipe for making sweetened condensed milk and it works in recipes just like the canned one. 2/3 cup sugar 1 cup powered milk 1/2 cup boiling water 3 Tbsp melted butter Put into blender and blend for 1 minute. Yield 14 oz (same as can) Always works for me.

TIP!!!! When you have a used vanilla bean put it in your powered sugar! have a separate container for it! you'll love it! Tasty whipped cream!!

Hello Becky I work 2 jobs and don’t get to watch much tv. I put on your KZbin videos between jobs and when I get home. Thanks for all your knowledge I’m learning g a lot. I have plans to can and freeze dry garden this year thanks to your videos. I plan to save some money and feed my family !!

[@conichaney3875]

In one of your videos you were asking which mixer to buy. I have a professional model Kitchen Aide and then bought a Bosch I will say the kitchen aide cannot match the bower of a Bosch plus you can make multiple loaves of bread in a Bosch and it never bogs down plus I have burned out 2 kitchen aides and I still have my Bosch Mixer which has given me no problems. As far as looks I find My Bosch to look modern and clean on the counter

That is so easy . I use more powdered sugar than normal sugar so now I know what to do with my extra sugar when it starts to get clumpy . I live in high humidity

[@sheriminer5207]

My husband's favorite salad dressing was discontinued, Raspberry poppy seed, so I learned to make it from scratch.....he says it's better than the store bought.

Recipe?

I use frozen raspberries, add to pot, add a little water and cook, strain, I keep the unused portion of the juice in the freezer .

[@andreahaar60]

Hi Becky. I don't know if you know how to make your own Brown Sugar. Its Sugar And Molasses. The more Molasses you add the darker it will be. Also to stop Brown Sugar from hardening up you can buy a terracotta bear at bed bath & beyond. Or if you have a broken terracotta pot you can just make sure you wash it really good and just drop it in there with the brown sugar and it does the same thing.

I bought some powdered Monk Fruit sugar that was very expensive. With these instructions I can make my own which will save beaucoup bucks.

Where the heck was this video when all the stores were out of powdered sugar before Christmas?! 😂 It was crazy & I wasn’t the only one looking for it. Thanks soooo much for the ‘how to’!

[@NOVAFrugalFamily]

I tried a few times and it was still more granular then store bought. I did make it without corn starch and mine did clump. I have been more successful with cinnamon powdered sugar because we use them on homemade doughnuts. Going to try again but so much more successful with brown sugar.

[@christinashouse3488]

Wow thanks for sharing. Didn't know it was that easy to make. Ive ran out before and just don't make recipes because I didn't want to run to the store

[@phyllisstein1837]

this is good to know. Also the brown sugar hack is good to know. Thank you for sharing.

[@MaryDavidson911]

In addition to being non-GMO, I purchase organic cane sugar to avoid the processing faux pas of “bone char processing“ that they use for regular white sugar. I’m vegan so prefer not to involve bone char in the processing of sugar. Great video!

[@rochellemoreno4646]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe it's true there's so many times you need powdered sugar and you don't want to run to the store for it thanks again and have a wonderful day 👍

[@marcwright4790]

For years I only used powdered sugar to make whipped cream for pies at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I had one extra large bag of powdered sugar last me probably 7-10 years! At the time I didn’t realize it had a starch in it or I wouldn’t have kept using it all those years since starches can go bad. Still it’s funny every year I would pull out that same ancient bag of powdered sugar. It was sort of sad the day it was all used up. All the holidays it had been a part of with family no longer here. :’(

[@oddoneout1835]

I meant to thank you some months back. I learned about Azure through the description box on one of your videos. Thank you for that, this and the other videos you've done. Have a great day.👍

[@herhomeandharvest]

My mom told me she grew up doing this but I've never tried it. Now that I use mostly organic products I will definitely give it a try because you're absolutely right, it's SOOO expensive in the store!!

[@sblackmont]

Have you ever considered make a series about kitchen utensils and utilities? What someone who just got married and started to "build" a kitchen may need or find interesting to have, what you find useless and stuff like that. And recipes that need those utensils and utilities, of course.

Most of the time I love watching your channel just to see what I can learn & what's new with you. I only have myself to cook for so it is a little difficult to come up with new ideas. I'm a typical cajun, so I usually eat the same things that I like, but on occasion I do experiment, I just hate wasting food, so whatever I fix, whether it tastes good or not, I'll eat it, I won't throw it out. I like to cook, don't like to bake, nor am I good at it. You are an amazing young woman. I hope you got my package. 🙋‍♀️💜

I do want to clarify that Sugar Beets *can be* a GMO crop but unlike corn which almost always is beets aren't necessarily (though it is very common). Why is this important? Sugar Beets can be grown pretty much anywhere, unlike Sugar Cane which has to be imported from the tropics (leading to both environmental costs, and human rights issues). So for those of us who are trying to buy local/regional Beet Sugar can be a good choice. It really comes down to personal values.

[@kelly-annejenner486]

I just looked at the icing sugar ingredients we get and it says “icing sugar, tricalcium phosphate”. The price difference is big too, for 1kg of icing sugar it’s £1.70, for 1kg of granulated sugar it’s £0.65! Or if you buy a 2kg of granulated sugar it’s £0.62 per kg and 5kg of granulated sugar is £0.65 per kg. If you want caster sugar which is what I use for baking that’s a finer granule it’s £1.60 per kg! So you can save so much money just by blitzing up your own! There’s no option of organic sugar in the store I’m looking at either x
