Cranberry Sauce (Canned)
Posted by Tracy | Filed under canning
Last year for Thanksgiving, I made fresh cranberry sauce for the first time and absolutely fell in love with it. Not only was it surprisingly easy to make, but it’s extremely versatile, and I love that you can make it several days ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator so it’s one of [...]

This month’s Tigress Can Jam theme was apples, pears, and quinces…and since I had just seen pears at the grocery store around the time I read the announcement, I thought it was a great pick for November. I have to admit that I’ve never seen a quince at the store before, much less eaten one [...]

I really wanted to find a place to pick them, but I figured that since we had already picked strawberries and cherries this year (and apples [...]

This month’s Tigress’ Can Jam challenge was tomatoes, which made me a little nervous. I decided to make tomato sauce – that had to be simple, right? – but when I opened up my trusty Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving to the page on tomato sauce, what I saw was a few pages of guidelines [...]

Strawberry-Vanilla Bean Jam
Posted by Tracy | Filed under canning
Last month, hubby and I went strawberry picking right at the beginning of strawberry season. We went for the first time last year, and I loved it so much that we decided to make it an annual thing. I wanted to pick a lot so that I could make jam since I’ve been canning like [...]
