Posted by Tracy | Filed under canning
Even though this post was supposed to go up yesterday (I’m not going to get into the issues with my host again, but if you follow me on Twitter, you can read about the whole saga), I’m still declaring it to be “canning week” here on Sugarcrafter, and I couldn’t be more excited. Have you [...]

I hope you all had a happy and safe 4th of July! It took a little longer than usual this year, but strawberry season finally arrived. As soon as we could, my baking friend Becky and I headed out to a local you-pick place, where we both picked a ton of berries – if you [...]

Pear-Apple Jam
Posted by Tracy | Filed under canning
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 [...]

“Bluebarb” Jam
Posted by Tracy | Filed under canning
When I saw that this month’s Tigress Can Jam assignment was either rhubarb or asparagus, I had to laugh, since I had just canned rosemary-infused rhubarb jelly for last month’s assignment. I do love rhubarb though, so I decided to find a new and different way to use rhubarb for this month’s challenge. Fortunately for [...]

Chocolate Chip Jam Bars
Posted by Tracy | Filed under desserts & sweets
I made these bars last week when we had some friends over, and I still can’t get them out of my head (ask my husband, I’ve wanted to make them again every day this week). The chocolate is so rich and creamy, and the cookie dough has an almost nutty quality when paired with the [...]
