WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

I liked the baked bean ones I made! It's great to have them "ready" when no time for prep.

Canned potatoes make fast work for potato salads, too

leaves more outside time.

I need to can the rest of the extra potatoes I bought. By the time I get them done I'll probably have a years' worth of potatoes sitting in the pantry and waiting for us. Kinda nice.

Will definitely do more beans too.

I will definitely be making some more of those! I use Swerve brown sugar in them to keep the carbs down. They're delicious!

Made 8 1/2 pints of apple butter.

About done with sweet spreads for the year. Made blueberry jam about a month ago, plenty fig preserves from last yr, now this. I don't even eat much jam/jelly spreads anyway. Nice gifts if need arises -- just dress up the jar.

Figs are ripening this week, so dehydrator will be busy.

D'Anjou pear butter (from pears being thrown away) and pineapple coconut jam from 5 cans of pineapple chunks from 2021. One of each are being entered into the local fair later this month.

Ordered green beans and pickles for Saturday.

If I get into a rhythm, may try baked beans.

The big stash from the 2022 canning campaign is being whittled down

This past week...24 trays of dehydrated figs. 3 pints fig preserves from those too ripe to dry. Have tomatoes to do...maybe 5 pints. Not making anything with this batch, just chop & can! I need more of the pepper/onion relish, have just one jar left.

I volunteered at the county fair yesterday. I have four more slots to go.

Anyhoo, we were intaking the canning and preserving that people were dropping off. There are 12 pages of rules, some of which I think the participants didn't read. Oh well, we were there to help guide them, and to fill out the numerous pages and tags.

I had a good time with like minded ladies. And I can't wait to wander around to see the other exhibits, such as photography, sewing, quilting, flowers, baking and more.
