by Jennifer Rader (Author)

What if your basic food storage could deliver bold flavors, rich sauces, and irresistible condiments-without a trip to the store?

In Good Eats at the TEOTWAWKI Café Condiments, Sauces, Seasonings, and Other Homemade Essentials Using Food Storage (Volume 2), you'll learn how to transform simple staples into mayonnaise, ketchup, salad dressings, dips, syrups, and more. These little extras make every meal feel complete-and they come together in minutes.

New to making your own condiments? No problem. With over 180 easy-to-master recipes, this book shows you how to add flavor, color, and excitement to every dish using ingredients already in your pantry or easily stored for long-term use.

Savory and sweet, these recipes will enhance every breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.

Recipes include (but are not limited to!) essentials like:

• Condiments-ketchup, mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, pickle relish, prepared mustard, Dijon mustard, pickles, apple cider vinegar, malt vinegar, pineapple vinegar
• Sauces--Asian sauces like hoisin, pad thai, sriracha, and teriyaki; barbecue sauces; Italian sauces like alfredo, marinara, pesto, pizza, and spaghetti; Mexican sauces like chili, enchilada, salsa, Tabasco, Taco Bell, and Valentina's; white sauces like cheese, meat gravies, and herb sauces; tartar, tzatziki, Worcestershire
• Dips & Spreads-apple, bean, and cheese dips, hummus, Alouette/Boursin, dipping oils, guacamole, Nutella, and yogurt dips
• Salad Dressings-classics like ranch, Thousand Island, Italian, vinaigrette, and French, as well new favorites like poppy seed, Chinese chicken salad, avocado chile lime, and honey mustard
• Syrups-bacon (yum!), buttermilk (double yum!!), chocolate, blueberry, coconut, pineapple, strawberry, pancake, snow cone, and vanilla
• Jams & Jellies-Almost Raspberry Jam (you won't believe this), pepper jelly, and how to make these without added pectin
• Seasoning Blends-beef and chicken bouillon, taco, Italian, sausage, Slap Ya Mama, Old Bay, and many more, plus salt-free blends
• Extracts-almond, lemon, peppermint

Helpful appendices include information on making pectin from apples or citrus, home pasteurization of eggs, how to make yogurt and cream cheese from powdered milk, and recipe scaling and substitutions.

These recipes were tested by real people-family and friends-including the King and Queen of the Picky Eaters (and you thought your family members were fussy!) who share their reviews. Everyone loved the cheese dips; only those with less discriminating palates would eat the fry sauce. And that split pea guacamole? Well, I shared that one so you wouldn't make the same mistake.

Whip up 3-4 of these recipes just once and you will have covered the cost of this book. Incorporate them into your life, and you'll save hundreds of dollars each year, not to mention the benefits of avoiding bioengineered ingredients and knowing that you are serving your family real food without undesirable additives and preservatives.

Because when TEOTWAWKI-The End Of The World As We Know It-arrives, meals don't have to be dull. Sweet or savory, these recipes will keep food joyful and satisfying, no matter what's happening outside your door.
