Spearfish Creek is a fast-moving creek that emerges from Spearfish Canyon at Spearfish. It runs roughly south to north through the center of town (parallel to Canyon Street), year round. The creek freezes from the bottom up instead of icing over. This unusual phenomenon occurs due to the very fast rate at which the creek flows.
As waters subsided and land masses began to appear 60 to 30 million years ago (between the Paleocene and Oligocene epochs), drainages such as Spearfish Canyon formed as softer rock was eroded away. Today, a National Scenic Byway, U.S. Route 14A, winds through the canyon. This area is truly a crossroads, and trees and plants from Rocky Mountains ...
By: Carolyn Malcoun. I'm a sucker for a good deal. So whenever I see not-so-perfect organic tomatoes for $2/pound or piles of corn at a rock-bottom price, I stock up.
Tunnel freezing is a variant of air-blast freezing where food is put onto trolley racks and sent into a tunnel where cold air is continuously circulated. Fluidized bed freezing is a variant of air-blast freezing where pelletized food is blown by fast-moving cold air from below, forming a fluidized bed. The small size of the food combined with ...
A freeze watch is a notice issued by the National Weather Service that announces that temperatures of 32 °F (0 °C) and below is possible in the next 48 hours. This watch is only issued during the growing season when the freezing temperature may damage or kill unharvested crops, which would end the growing season.
2. Don't Skimp on the Seasoning. Seasoning frozen vegetables can also greatly enhance their flavor. Before cooking, toss them with a generous amount of spices and herbs, such as salt, pepper ...
One of the main advantages of this method of preparing frozen food is that the freezing process takes only a few minutes. The exact time depends on the type of IQF freezer and the product. The short freezing prevents formation of large ice crystals in the product's cells, which destroys the membrane structures at the molecular level.
Photograph taken 21 March 2010 in Norwich, Vermont. Frost heaving (or a frost heave) is an upwards swelling of soil during freezing conditions caused by an increasing presence of ice as it grows towards the surface, upwards from the depth in the soil where freezing temperatures have penetrated into the soil (the freezing front or freezing boundary).
