Greetings -
Section 51 needs one correction and it's good to go.
Time: 03:22 "and steam
over a slow fire five or six hours, not allowing the water to boil. When the pickles are a fine green, remove the leaves and throw the cucumbers into very cold water" Reading omits the words in italics.
Your sound level is very consistent over your recordings. Makes it easier to read along with.
Another good quote from the book:
"Use none but the best cider vinegar; especially avoid the sharp colorless liquid sold under that name. It is weak sulphuric acid, warranted to riddle the coat of any stomach, even that of an ostrich, if that bird were so bereft of the instinct of self-preservation as to make a lunch of bright-green cucumber-pickle seven times a week."
My father was a cook in the army during WWII when they tried to get him to use "some of that artificial vinegar". He discovered, as he began to flush it down the toilet, that it made the best toilet bowl cleaner he had ever used. And that became its fundamental use around his kitchen and mess hall, probably around the base.
