Barley Sugar Candy Recipe
Returning to the simple gifts for the holidays
A return to simple gifts HolidaysBy PowersThese sand are difficult economic times without any change for the foreseeable future. Back to the pleasures of our lives that are not related to money. While still filled with holiday gifts, many gifts from the kitchen instead of the mall. Give the gift of the kitchen during the holidays is thoughtful and personal. It's really a gift you. One of my recipes that my family and friends who waited for my pineapple fruitcake. No one throws this fruitcake away! Date fruit cake from Roman times when pomegranate seeds, pine nuts and the mashed barley blended to form a ring-shaped dessert. Roman soldiers packed fruitcake with them on their long marches for life long fruitcakes. In the Middle Ages, cooks added honey, spices and dried fruits to fruitcakes. Crusaders, the principles of Roman soldiers took the fruitcake with them to stay for long periods on their marches to the Holy Land. An interesting variation to the historical tradition of fruitcake products early 18 th century, when European countries outlawed the cake fruit, because they were considered "sinful rich." As a special touch to the Fruitcake Piña, write a note that reports on some of the history of the fruitcake and attach it to the donation.

Rye Whiskey
American rye whiskey
In the United States, “rye whiskey” is, by law, made from a mash of at least 51 percent rye. (The other ingredients of the mash are usually corn and malted barley.) It is distilled to no more than 160 (U.S.) proof, and aged in charred, new oak barrels. The whiskey must be put into such barrels at not more than 125 (U.S.) proof. Rye whiskey that has been so aged for at least 2 years may be further designated as “straight”, as in “straight rye whiskey”.
Rye whiskey was the prevalent whiskey of the northeastern states, especially Pennsylvania and Maryland, but largely disappeared after Prohibition. A few brands, such as Old Overholt, survived it. Today Heaven Hill, Copper Fox, Jim Beam and Wild Turkey (among others) also produce rye whiskeys, as does a distillery at Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington, which sells a version of the rye Washington made. Rye is currently undergoing a small but growing revival in the United States.
Canadian rye whisky
Canadian whisky is often referred to as “rye whisky”, since historically much of the content was from rye. With no requirement for rye to be used to make whiskies with the legally-identical labels “Canadian Whisky”, “Canadian Rye Whisky” or “Rye Whisky” in Canada, provided they “possess the aroma, taste and character generally attributed to Canadian whisky”, in some cases the corn-to-rye ratio may be as high as 9:1. Most contemporary Canadian whiskies contain only a fraction of rye, with the exception of Alberta Premium which is one of the very few whiskies made from 100% rye mash.
In contrast with the US “straight rye whiskey” counterpart, a minimum of 3 years of small (700l/~185USG or less) wooden barrel aging is required for the “Canadian Whisky”, “Canadian Rye Whisky” and “Rye Whisky” labels, although they need not be new oak, nor charred.
Differences between rye and bourbon
Rye is known for imparting what many call a spicey or fruity flavor to the whiskey. Bourbon, distilled from at least 51% corn, is noticeably sweeter, and tends to be fuller bodied than rye. As bourbon gained popularity beyond the southern United States, bartenders increasingly substituted it for rye in cocktails like Whiskey Sours, Manhattans, and Old Fashioneds, which were initially made only with rye. All other things being equal, the character of the cocktail will be drier with rye.
American distillers
Approximately twenty US distilleries produce about forty different ryes. Among them is a single malt produced by the Anchor Brewery of San Francisco, known as Old Potrero Single Malt Whiskey, one of the few single malt whiskeys made in the United States.
Canadian distillers
Approximately a dozen Canadian distillers make rye whisky today. Only a few produce a whisky with majority rye content, most famously Alberta Distillers’ Alberta Premium and Alberta Springs, and Wiser’s Old Rye Whisky, long distilled on the shores of Lake Ontario. Popular international brands of Canadian whisky are Canadian Club and Crown Royal.
Specialties
“Rock and Rye” is the name of two distinct beverages: a citrus fruit flavored whiskey-based liqueur made from American rye bottled with a bit of rock candy (crystallized sugar); and a toddy made with rye whiskey, bitters, and rock candy.
