Charcuterie recipes are perfect for this because they are almost always &gt;75% meat.Bob delGrossohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04836391227499190970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787762088895101828.post-90827911432339898602012-01-02T22:39:57.512-05:002012-01-02T22:39:57.512-05:00Hi Bob. (I bet you hear that a lot .)<br /><br />I assume your ratios here and elsewhere take the form of &quot;bakers percentage&quot; or &quot;formula percentage&quot;, correct?fritzghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04692092742398593180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787762088895101828.post-68680425879389560112011-12-20T10:26:14.139-05:002011-12-20T10:26:14.139-05:00Yes, I can imagine!

But in this case I poached some to taste it because I was making up the recipe on the spot. It&#39;s still a bit of a crap shoot because the thing has to sit for a week to mellow so you have to season it in a way that takes that into account. Suffice it to say that imagining how all of the ingredients will commingle can be a bit unnerving.Bob delGrossohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04836391227499190970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787762088895101828.post-91984647631305331402011-12-19T10:18:21.051-05:002011-12-19T10:18:21.051-05:00Bob, do you cook a little to check the taste as you go?The Bad Yogihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18149759309589778285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787762088895101828.post-62767230187012834432011-12-18T22:27:15.093-05:002011-12-18T22:27:15.093-05:00I can&#39;t wait!Linda/IdahoRockshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16130470728836711601noreply@blogger.com
