Well Lynn, I haven't made ginger beer in years and never made garlic pork. I did eat it many years ago but it aint my thing now.

I picked up some shredded coconut to try making salara. I will use red colouring in one, green in the other, for the Christmas spirit.

With my luck with baking hard bread I will more than likely end up with two  door stops...one with red swirls one with green.

Well..Cain i tried making the ginger beer few yrs ago..ie Canadian style because i grew up making it the Gy way..ie u grated dry ginger n filled jug with water n put in d  sun to brew for days before xmas..then i  strained n added sugar n essence..

but i never tried boiling water n brewing it here until 2-3 yrs ago I used a Jcan recipe.  It wasnt too bad..nothing like the real thing, but it ok.  

Cain i bought the frozen shredded coconut (Indian brand i think) from Freshco..labelled ‘coconut shreds’

it is very good..moist n fresh unlike the dry, shredded kind(which often tastes rancid)

normally i grate my own coconut but many times i get stale ones that r rancid..so i have to buy abt 4 n grate up to half way inside so i dont get the rancid portion which is close to the shell

i decided to try this brand n now i am sticking to it.

Years ago i used to get from asian store..there was an indian brand called laksmi which  was just as good ie frozen shreds but i dont see it anymore.  There was another one called DEEP but that had the brown parts n was very dry

anyway good luck with yrs..it wont be  hard..

Try Metemgee (Althea Brown) recipe ..make the 1st dough a BIT  sticky , not hard n it will be soft

Well, what are y'all doing for the holidays?

Can someone tell me how to make ginger beer.  I bought the ginger.
