Peanut butter powder and other powdered foods

[realist]

Hey IW is the milk good? That is another thing I am going to want to try. I figure the peanut butter, shortening and milk I can get assimilate into our daily life and my wife might go for it. Now the kids are out of the house we have a hard time using things up. So if it will keep longer she just might go with it.

I just finished reading about shortening and it looks good. That is one thing we use a lot of seasonally so if I can extend its life that would be good. The article says it makes great cookies and pie crusts.

I'm not much of a judge on the dry milk - I only use 2% regular milk and it doesn't equal to full fat milk .... but I know some families swear by the LDS dry milk - they say adding a bit of vanilla extract to any of the dry milk helps fill out the taste - I have a supply tagged for the purpose ....

I'd certainly buy a small can before going whole hog on a bucket - if you have kids involved they need to be a consideration .....

interesting site devoted to cooking using stored food - lots of good info/planning besides the recipes
