Well, the 1st quad batch of fudge I made in my new 48 lb, 20 qt cast iron duch oven had to all be dumped. Pi**ed me off! 20 qts of fudge is a lot to throw away, but if its not right, its history.
Did everything just like I have been doing for years, and it set up well, but wasn't smooth at all. It was grainy from the sugar, and I can't have that. I has to be creamy smooth.
The problem is, the bottom of the pan is way larger than my biggest burner. Solution....try again. I will have to cook it longer and stir it different. The fudge not over the burner will have to keep being stirred to the center which means, I will have to cook it twice as long or more without letting it scorch.
Dr Appt was changed to Feb 3. He was called away, so I have to wait that much longer to find out whats wrong with my back. The nice little pain pills(two demoral and two soma) are starting to work, so I am going to go nappy for awhile/
