Seafood pie for the novice
*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***
I will have to be quick today so here I have a recipe
for SEAFOOD PIE FOR DUMMIES. Although it does take 30-40
min to bake is super quick & easy to prepare making it a
definite “keeper” and perfect for any beginners out there
that can at least open a can of seafood. This calls for
Bisquick but you can substitute for any other prepared
baking mix.
Enjoy! Marzee

The Can-Do’s of Cans:
Can you freeze canned or bottled food products before
opening? Canned or processed bottled food products are
stable at room temperature and therefore do not require
freezing. In fact, freezing in their original container
can be detrimental to the quality (flavor and texture)
of the product.
Can you refrigerate canned or bottled food products before
opening? Canned foods have been processed to ensure shelf
stability, so it is not necessary to refrigerate the product.
Storate in the refrigerator is not recommended once opened
because condensation may collect on the can causing it to
rust. However, prechilling unopened products such as canned
fruits and juices is acceptable.
How do you store canned food products once opened? Once
opened, leftover contents must be removed from the can
and placed in a covered, nonmetallic container and
refrigerated or frozen.
How can you tell if a canned food product has expired?
Some, but not all canned food products contain “best-if-
used-by” dates. Unless a canned product is leaking or
swollen (bulging), storing for several years will not
affect the safety of the product.
Is it safe to use dented cans?
Products in slightly dented cans can be consumed as long as
there are no leaks and the product appears wholesome. Do not
consume products from severely dented, leaking, or swollen
cans or jars.
