What is something you do that is unconventional but you won't ever do different?

I think I phrased that correctly. Mainly talking about food items. Like making homemade mayonnaise or bread.

For me the #1 thing is making my own refrigerated pickled jalapenos. Been doing this for 3 years now and find a use for them almost every day. Just can't get the freshness or crispness from store bought shelf-stable jalaps.

I used to make a lot of stuff myself from scratch like super hot pepper sauces, asian chili oil, but I’ve weirdly gotten lazy or indifferent last year or so. Maybe I’ll turn it around and get motivated again.

Homemade chicken stock. Silky, perfect, and a total game changer for chicken soup. I just don't have enough freezer space now that I don't have a garage fridge in the rental house.

Make my own sauce, dressing, and salsa….spaghetti sauce, bolognese, ragu, enchilada sauce etc.

Taste so much better than anything out of a jar or can.

I was dumb enough to have to have ChatGPT tell me to vacuum seal sauces in flat pouches to fit in my freezer in individual servings due to the space issue.

the wife and I make chow chow, but it's different from most. It's a 100 year old family recipe. Chopped green tomatoes, cucumbers and red onions mixed with a mustard sauce.

We use it on hot dogs, hamburgers, sandwiches and white beans.
