Bales Farm Cookbook, Lard, and Marshall Bales Egg Program
Today, we are setting the table with news about an excellent cookbook from Bales Farms written by Aliceson Bales. She has been a visitor several times on this show before. Aliceson, her husband Barry Bales, and their 15-year-old son Marshall own and operate Bales Farms in Mosheim, Tennessee. A 6th generation family farm. And Barry is a multi-grammy award winner, having played with Allison Krauss and Union Station for thirty-plus years. Today Aliceson will share information with us about lard from pasture-raised animals. The differences between lard, how to render lard, some nutritional benefits in lard, and cooking applications. Marshal Bales tells us about his egg program that he runs on the farm and has for several years. Marshall is 15 years old. Dolly Parton wrote the forward for this brand new cookbook that Aliceson wrote, and I want to share that with you. And, Aliceson shares a recipe from her new cookbook with us for white cheddar pimento cheese. She suggests pulling this out to handle the crowd when they first show up at the house.
