    My sister shopper! Just shopped T Js today. No lavender, no pine cones, no cannoli dip, no pretzel bread pudding, no cinnamon bun coffee creamer, no green mango! Still spent $200!! Maybe I’ll have better luck next week.😊

    The trick to the cranberries is as soon as you hear a few pops, turn them off the stove heat and stir. = sauce and crunchy cranberries. Add zest from two oranges and their juice. Just before serving, add crunchy walnut halves.

    Isn’t crumble just so much better than the usual pie pastry? 🤤
    This year, I made the filling for an apple pie, threw it in the pre-made pie crust, but for the topping, we only had spelt flour, so I made it into a crumble on top. It was glorious!! It turned out sweet, nutty, and the burnt crumble turned out to actually be a delightful caramelization. Crumbs for the win!

      I love the aseptic cartons of heavy cream ($1.69). Over the years at our SF bay area TJ's, it's been seasonal, then year-round for a couple of years. This year it's been seasonal again and showed up in October. It's very handy for so many recipes, and also very popular...time to stock up!

      @@traderjoesgeek My liver Dr has me on a medically supervised low carbohydrate diet, & heavy cream (aka unsweetened whipping cream) is preferred for me to use instead of milk (regular, low-fat, or non-fat) because it has almost zero lactose. While I mostly use it for coffee ☕️ on road trips or while camping (shelf stable box stashed until needed), the small quantity means I could add a bit where others might add a small amount of milk like with berries or in scrambled eggs or whatever. My nice introduced me to the boxed cream and recommended putting it in the fridge overnight (my minivan camper has a 12v fridge).

    how do you cut up the pomegranate to get the seeds without making a mess?

    • @traderjoesgeek
      @traderjoesgeek  7 месяцев назад

      I saw a lot of “hack” videos on Instagram on how to cut pomegranates but basically I cut the little top part off in a square and pop it off and cut down slits on the side without slicing it all the way through and kinda break it apart like an orange 🍊 and then just start taking the seeds out. Sometimes it comes out in chunks and some seeds you have to pull out one by one. Tedious work for sure 😅
