Spice

A little bit of my spices.
A little bit more spice.
And some more spices with the makings of lime extract in the middle of progress.

I will stop here as I am not going to my cabinet spices.

Good evening all on this rainy North Florida night.

I am wishing the best for every one of you.

Just wanted to pop in and show off some of my recipe ingredients that I use and most of my spices!

I will leave you a tip in this post of mine tonight, that is if you like lime extract.

Take 4 limes and wash them and finely peel of the skin (green part). Leave off as much of the white pith as you possibly can. Tear the skins into smaller pieces.

Put the skins on a saucer and in your kitchen window to dry out.

When all are dry then add to a jar and fill with vodka, over the top of the lime peels. Top the jar with a lid and keep on the counter so that you remember to shake the jar a few times a day for 2 weeks.

Then leave the lid off the jar so that some of the vodka fumes can evaporate for about 6 hours. Now you have made lime extract and you could do this with some nice oranges as well. Use by the tsp for your recipes.

For a smaller amount of extract, use half of the amount of fruit peels and smaller jar. Like 2 limes or 2 oranges and do the same thing.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day for tomorrow!
