I usually freeze my beans until I have enough to can them. I know you are supposed to blanch the beans before freezing (and I do), I'm just curious if anyone knows why.
That is kinda what I was thinking. I don't get enough of them at one time to can anyway. It would take me half the season to get enough to make it worth the trouble of canning, so I'd have to freeze them first anyway.rhoda_bruce said:I would like to can mine, because wouldn't be dependant on the freezer, but then they won't taste as fresh/good when I actually serve them. I'm keeping mine in the freezer. If we get another Katrina, maybe I'll start pulling things out of the freezer and canning.
