Idaho

The Gem State is wedged between Washington and Montana in the Pacific Northwest. Its wide southern border is shared with Nevada and Utah, and it has a short border with British Columbia, Canada, to the north. The Cutthroat trout, and important fish for anglers, is Idaho’s official state fish. Besides wild trout, farmed trout are a big Idaho industry. The huckleberry, native to Idaho, is the state fruit. Huckleberries grow wild in Idaho. To make pies with fresh, wild huckleberries, Idahoans compete with bears for the delicious deep purple berries. Famous for potatoes, Idaho might soon became known for winemaking as well. In March 2007, the Snake River Valley earned designated as an American Viticultural Area, the first such distinction granted to a wine-growing area in Idaho. Incidentally, crisp Rieslings are leading the way in the Snake River Valley – a varietal that pairs wonderfully with fried potatoes!

Sweet Potato Pie I

Reviewed on Dec. 4, 2008 by Duckball
Having never eaten sweet potato pie and knowing my husband hates it, I wasn't sure what to expect... Especially when the sweet potatoes were all stringy when mixed with the other ingredients. But I pressed on! I used about 3/4 of a 29-oz can of sweet potatoes in place of fresh, and I followed the rest of the recipe exactly... Until my hand mixer died mid-recipe. Not wanting to dirty another bowl, I didn't use the stand mixer and instead used a whisk to make sure everything was well-blended. And this was awesome! I think I might like it as much as (or may more than) pumpkin pie. So good, but no one else would touch it (my daughter remembered the stringiness of the uncooked filling!). Oh, well, more for me. Thanks for sharing, Cougaar!

After-Thanksgiving Turkey Soup

Reviewed on Dec. 4, 2008 by Duckball
This was so good. It did make a lot of soup, so it took about six days for the three of us to finish the pot, but it was good. I added lots of extra kosher salt (it needed it), I only used around 2 TBS butter, I omitted the flour and used potato flakes to thicken it up, and I used around 2 cups of uncooked bow ties in place of rice. It was so yummy, especially with a spoonful of sour cream mixed in! Thanks for sharing, Valorie!
