It wouldn't be the same dish, but ham slices in bechamel doesn't sound like a terrible dish to me. Or you could sprinkle them through mac and cheese before putting in the oven.

Chop it up and put it in macaroni and cheese or green beans or turnip greens or really any kind of soup or basically anything that's gonna cook a while and wouldn't mind some extra flavor and salt.

Chop it up/puree it with a bunch of mayo and green onions and w/e else and make ham dip/salad (think chicken salad, but ham, and you put it on crackers)

Fry up a slice for breakfast, or as a meat for dinner if it's thick (serve with the macaroni and cheese and green beans from above)

Also really good ham makes THE BEST sandwiches, so don't be afraid to just make really good sandiches. Mayo, dijon, jarlsberg/swiss/gouda, ham, in a sandwich press is real tasty. It's a good excuse to make homemade mayonnaise too

I had been assuming "sliced" meant "deli sliced", as in very thin. If it's thicker, cut it into cubes and use it to season anything!

Speaking of celeriac, can I eat the roots of any celery plant? Or does it have to be specifically bred for it.

I've got some pink celery that's gonna come up and I'll pull the roots too if it is palatable

Properly called the hypocotyl, they're all edible if they're actually apium graveolens. Wild celery isn't actually celery, and is used as foliage in fish tanks.

Yes but celery not bred for the roots doesn't have as big of a root and may not be as much bred for flavor.

General recipe advice question fine? Two years ago my mom made a fermented honey cranberry sauce that turned out great for thanksgiving. Recipe off the internet that wasn't saved, and while it was simple, it's definitely long lost. We tried the same (similar, different recipe) thing plus a ginger+orange one the next thanksgiving and both were kinda blah. I could live without the ginger one but man that first year's sauce was really good. Does anyone have anything that could fit the bill or any advice? I think the second one didn't have a whole lot of cranberry flavor at all and the berries were tough as hell if I remember right. The first year was dead simple and other than poking them I don't think they needed much if any prep other than flipping the jar every few days. Any help would be appreciated

Come see us in the canning and pickling thread, where we discuss fermentation too.

:actually: There are several different plants that are commonly known as "wild celery". One of them is aquatic celery, but the others are land-living.

Also, poison hemlock is easily mistaken for wild celery, Queen Anne's Lace, and carrots, among others. Do not touch any wild plants that look like celery or carrots unless you are absolutely sure they aren't hemlock.

Hemlock is a dirty dog - it looks like about 100 other commonplace plants that go from being perfectly edible to 'might give you a rash', and hemlock has to just jump to super-toxic

I accidently ate a lot yesterday during lunch time. It's in our front yard besides our garden. I thought it's wild carrots or celery. I had a little bit before but I ate a lot yesterday. 20 minutes later, I felt my eyelids were heavy. I thought maybe my blood sugar went too high because I didn't eat breakfast. 10 minutes later I had to go to my bedroom to rest. I couldn't walk by myself. My husband had to support me. While I was resting on my bed, I noticed I could't control my muscle, and I even couldn't open my mouth big like I was numbed by dentist. Then I noticed I had hard time to swallow the saliva. I was scared at that moment because I don't know if I will suffocate. Fortunately 30 minutes later my husband gave me some vinegar with a little bit water to drink. I threw up once. It didn't change that much. My husband also ate some, he got the same symptoms but a little better. We both had to put our finger into our throat to help the vomit. After five times vomiting, about five hours, we both started to feel better. We also drank some honey with water, and milk. We are blessed to escape this catastrophe. My kids also learned not to eat this plant from this.

Next time you have something like this happen, do us a favor and call the poison control hotline. They can cross-reference your symptoms with what you ingested and figure out what the appropriate action to take is, because it's almost certainly not "drink some vinegar and honey".

I would encourage you not to eat wild-grown foods until you have bought a plant identification book and studied it. "Looks like parsley" will absolutely get you killed. And the next time you're feeling seriously ill and know it was food, please call poison control ASAP.

e: And for God's sake, do not pick and eat mushrooms.

Right so.

I have lots of honey not suitable for much but I could use it for Kombucha, I have a regular scoby can that be converted to a Jun(?) scoby I'm getting conflicting answers.

When fermenting it it's never tasting that sour. Should I be testing the pH to make sure it's good here. I had one fermenting for 2 weeks at 20c and it tastes sweet still, scoby formed etc just not sour.
