    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    @LaurenRitz Most don't can dairy. Can't find any "recommended" sites or instructions because of. What has been your experience with any dairy?

    Newbie

    Oregano. See if she'll eat any -- even in a tea if she'll drink, or put drops of the tea in her mouth to force her drinking, several times a day. It's antibacterial, very good for them. Sounds like she's not doing well, so I'd sure try it. I'm sorry she's so down. :hugs

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Glass really shows it! 😂 @frustratedearthmother I let it steam, brought to 10#, turned burner off. Cooled to 0#. So, no time. It goes warmer than pasteurizing, seals. Cooks it during heat & cool, so you get the gist. First time doing. It's a back up. Like freezing colostrum ☺️ never...

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Worked great. No re-separation so far. Taste fine, both hot tea & potatoes. I've got 8 qts & 5 pts to use 😳 but, I'd do again just to have on hand & no need to buy canned. Will use for other things & go from there.

    Glad she's improving. 5+ days in hospital is unusual now. They tend to want you gone in 24-48 hrs 😵‍💫

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Just an update....last yr I canned fresh goat milk. To use if bottle kid & home use in cooking. This pic is jars before canning & appropriate lids. 8 months later -- it's separated & I'm thinking "crap", didn't work? So, took 2 pints out of pantry. Shook one hard for a few minutes....had...

    Are we living our dream?

    Oh, yeah!! BTDT....I need to clean counters off again. Things just get set there and not move! 🫤 And it's always MY fault. I'm the only one here 🤣 not enough counters, so table is also used. Sounds like you're feeling better. Enjoy that coffee!!

    I put mine upstairs....still a little drifts down. Plus I cooked some with beef patties. So 😁 It's not bad. The price we pay for convenience & supply later. Didn't get to freezer for chicken breast, will today. Prob won't thaw for canning today. Tomorrow job. Commercial pack at a 10#...

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    I dehydrated some paste tomatoes one yr and were super good when used in cooking. Nice flavor. Heck they even tasted good just eating dried. I plan to do those again this year. Actually a nice snack, satisfying.

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Actually I do have a pepper/onion one I like. But had made 7 or 8 pints last spring, so not really needed. Prob caramelize them. Have some of those made, frozen in cubes. Nice for fast use. Some dehydrated. Might dehydrate & grind into powder. But onion gravy sounds good 😁 if canned with...

    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Thanks. I'm considering canning more ground beef, more chicken breast this weekend...make freezer room for other things. Gotta pull out & thaw. Quite a few onions need to be preserved in some way -- hamburger patties with onion gravy in jars is a thought.

    What's for dinner?

    That looks delish! Me? Well long, hard day at work. Wheat crackers, goat cheese and wine. Yep, I deserve the wine!! I'd gobble that stuffed chicken if it was here 😁. Too tired to cook.
