Sorghum Caramels
<p>For our Sorghum Festival, we wanted to have a new sample for people to try using the sorghum, in addition to our chewy cookies that are always a hit. My mom actually played around with her caramel recipe until she came up with these chews, which we told her she perfected with flying colors!! They are <span class="caps">VERY</span> soft and chewy, with a distinct, sweet and tangy flavor.</p>
Vegetarian!

Sorrel (rosella flower) jam
<p>Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is also called Florida cranberry, red sorrel, or Jamaica sorrel. The part of the plant that is edible are the calyces of the roselle flower which can be used to make a variety of jams, sauces, and teas.<br />
Find more information about <a href="http://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/plants/edibles/vegetables/roselle.html" target="_blank"><strong>sorrel</strong></a> and its uses at the University of Florida Institute of Food & Agricultural Sciences.</p>
<p>The pectin in the recipe is obtained from boiling the interior buds of the rosella flowers. It is thus possible to make rosella jam with nothing but rosella buds and sugar. The pods have should be green as this indicates pectin is present.</p>

Sorrel (Roselle) "Florida Cranberry" Sauce
<p>Cranberries don’t produce well in our climate – and we don’t have a convenient bog to grow them in. For a Thanksgiving alternative that we can grow ourselves, we’re making sauce with Red Roselle flowers (sorrel) also called Florida cranberry. It’s fleshy, bright red cup-like structure contains the plant’s seeds and is called a calyx. The color and tart taste of the calyces makes them a good replacement for cranberries.</p>
<p>Remove the green seed pod from the bottom by cutting along the base of the calyx and splitting the side and pulling the whole green pod out. Wash the calyces, and you are ready to go.</p>

Southern Italian Pasta
<p>We spent way too much time down in Rochester one year and became very familiar with an Italian restaurant down there, Victoria’s. Highly recommended. They have a southern Italian pasta that is out of this world— tho can’t remember the name! <span class="caps">BUT</span>! It is easy to toss together at home.</p>

Southern Wilted Lettuce Recipe with Hot Bacon Dressing
<p>If your family has Southern roots, this dish was probably a staple on your grandmother’s table. But a search on the internet also mentions the dish may have originated with German immigrants or even with Italian cooks. Whatever the beginning, this combination of fresh greens and bacon grease is delicious. Don’t let the words “bacon grease” scare you away – a serving of this salad has only 32 calories!</p>
