WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

I would be bawling twice as long. One lady no period of grief for the barn and an equally lambs ng period of grief for all those jars!

I'd love to see the recipe. Thanks so much. DH is my pepper guy... geeze he eats them at every meal. He's been dehydrating habanero peppers all summer. We generally have tons of jalapenos too but he somehow managed to kill his jalapeno plant.

First set of jars all pinged....loading up the big batch

Fantastic!

Woo Hoo! Looks awesome!

*sigh* The chickens have been enjoying the tomatoes since I have no energy (because of Covid) to do anything with them, and no room in the freezer even, to freeze them

@Britesea hope you're feeling ok now!

Love to smell apples cooking but, still eating applesauce & apple butter from last year. I was pretty busy then, it seems! at least I had lots of stuff...canned. 2021 garden wasnt. 2022 will grow, yes it will!!!

change of plans...no applies. pickling some broccoli, kohlarbi, onions and orange beets--not all together a couple different batches but I have to use some stuff up before it spoils.

 

[Trying2keepitReal]

Figured it out...all good. Still held pressure even though the vent was open. Will check that after work

That could be a problem. I have yet to use my pressure canner, I get worried about stuff that could go wrong. Yep, a wus I am

Has anybody ever canned ham? I've got one that I either need to freeze or do something else with. I'd rather save my freezer space for a pig that needs to take up residence in there. Or - I guess I could can the pig!

meats in anything go via the pressure cooker. recipe on time varies by ingredients. that's all i know.

we freeze our bean soup if we have too much to eat up. we have two jars of that in the fridge and i'm eating some of that for brunch. nice to have warmed up soup instead of oatmeal today.

Wild hare of an idea. Looking at giving a go at canning mushrooms. There is a local place growing them, might give it a try.

if you have the time and resources i don't see why not give it a go. around here we don't have enough mushrooms in season to can them. we do eat a lot of store-bought canned mushrooms, but i don't think we could beat the price canning others. it would have to be a nearly free gift of tons of mushrooms to make me want to do it. oh, and yeah, they should be pressure canned if low acid.
