I've been thinking of ordering from Azure... Pretty sure Sams Club will give you 5-gallon buckets. 😀
If you do, let me know how it went! Publix will sometimes give buckets for free too.
A suggestion for your beef liver (I'm in the same boat as you), what you can do is cook the beef liver, dehydrate it, grind it up into powder then add the powder it to chili, spaghetti sauce, soups, meat loaf, hamburgers, anywhere you can hide it. Add a few tablespoon at a time. Works for me cause I HATE liver of any kind.
Oh, making the butter. You have to skim the cream off the top of the milk (let it sit overnight) and make the butter with just the heavy cream only. I've been making it for years. When it looks like whip cream, just let it keep going, it will make butter after a few mins.. :)
Very good suggestions, thank you! Beef liver makes me turn bright green, lol, but I know how good it is for us. I have been buying heavy cream from the grocery store to make butter on limited occasions but I was hoping to use raw milk instead so that’s a good idea! I can pour the gallons into a pot, refrigerate the pot, and skim off the top. 💕
@@TheHitchInn If you have any gallon jars, they work very well. I'm 63 and grew up doing these things.
Do you have somewhere to buy raw milk? A farm nearby?
@@cherylmerideth5143 I do, I get raw milk delivered every other week, but they haven’t gotten into just cream yet, only milk.
You can keep the cream for a few weeks, maybe 3? Then make the butter. I make mine in my stand mixer.
Let me know how it turns out!
You need cream to make butter. My local raw milk farmer will save cream if someone asks because they want to make butter. Maybe a local dairy will do the same for you.
Ah, my suspicion of the raw milk not having enough milk fat was probably correct then, it never did churn up to anything more than foamy milk.
Azure is always interesting.... I never seem to get what I needed, that prompted the order, but I do get all the random bits.
I’ve had fairly good luck getting what I needed, sometimes I have to bump up to a bigger bulk size though. Like if I need a 25 pound bag of flour, that’ll go out of stock but the 50 pound won’t. I wish I had a local bulk food store I could support like an Amish or Mennonite one.
@@TheHitchInn I totally agree. I also do not live near and Amish or Mennonite store. States away, maybe. It must be where we are in the rotation for Azure.... Like we are the end of the line? I seem to experience more out of stock totally.
I’m in Florida so I’m definitely at the end of the delivery line too, I think you might be on to something there.
Does azure sell pumps for the large gallon items?
I’m not sure, I’ve never had to buy them but I’m sure if you searched their item catalog online you could find them, but price compare off Amazon because you may find a better price elsewhere.
