The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Soft and golden yeast buns made with pureed carrots. A great option for sandwiches or dinner rolls. Versatile enough to pair with various dishes.

4 cups sliced carrots
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup warm water, divided
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons salt
9 cups flour
Cook carrots until tender. Drain and place in blender or food processor. Add eggs and 1/2 cup water; puree until smooth.
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in remaining water. Add carrot mixture. Stir in oil, sugar, molasses, salt and 5 cup flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto flour board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turn once to grease top. Cover and let raise until double, about 1 hour.
Punch down and shape into balls. Place 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let raise until almost doubled, about 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes or until brown.

In a cooking rut? Try one of these taste-tested, family-approved recipes using ground beef.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
