Chicken feet stock! One has gone 'ping' already!!! Exciting!

... none of the chili sealed lol. We ate it! It was delicious!

A closeup of a quart of homemade chicken feet stock. The liquid is brown. Half a second quart jar is half cut off next to the first. They're both on a white hand towel with blue stripe.

Family member gave us homemade jam.

And now I need to break the news that the maker canned slightly burnt jam.

My taste buds and sense of smell...

Our mom tried to sneak ingredients or spices into food that went undetected by the rest of the family.

Upgraded

After my presto had such jarring (get it! lol) pitting issues, I took the plunge and upgraded. Haven’t used this yet beyond a steam test, and am a little intimidated by the lack of gasket. I’ve watched a ton of videos and am hoping to test drive it this weekend. Anyone have any tips or [...]

Is this mold?

I just pulled out some blueberry jam from last year. I followed Ball's recipe to the T. I have 3 jars like this, completely sealed. I wonder if it's crystals because it's not fuzzy. by Hotsaucehallelujah

I noticed fresh pineapple at the grocery store the other day and realized each pineapple cost about the same as two 8oz cans. I’ll see how much we end up with from our two pineapples, but I’m sure it will be more than that. 7 half pints from the first one. Yay!

I Have The Answer!

I know where Peter Piper’s pickled peppers are! They are in my kitchen. At least, about a third of them are.

I had some peppers in my refrigerator that were not going to be used up before they shrivelled up, so I decided to pickle them. I had pickled some peppers a couple of months previously and was quite pleased with the result, so I decided to use the same recipe again.

I used to do quite a lot of canning when my children were still children, and I have kept the canning bath, the jar grabber, and some jars and lids. So, I was ready!

After the process was complete and the hot jars were cooling on my kitchen counter, I was reminded of the old tongue-twister about Peter Piper that was first published in John Harris’s Peter Piper’s Practical Principles of Plain and Perfect Pronunciation in 1813:

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked;
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

So, that got me wondering, how much is a peck?

When I Googled it, I was told that a peck is 9.3 quarts, which is equivalent to 8801 millilitres. I had five 500-millilitre jars for a total of 2500 millilitres. That, I decided, was near-as-dammit a third of a peck.

So, there you have it. About a third of Peter Piper’s pickled peppers are on my kitchen counter. They are accompanied by some pickled carrots because I had excess brine.

Now to find out why putting things in jars is called canning.

****

Afterthought: The pecks keep coming. I just remembered the Doris Day song that includes the line “I love you, a bushel and a peck,” and the peck is a reference to a measurement, not a kiss!

Lime harvest is in. Mexican limes that ripen yellow. 8 paper grocery bags full.

I'm setting up some pages in my #BuJo and I don't know if it's worth it to have a #canning section that starts as a to-do list (as in, I want to have this many jars of tomato sauce by the end of the summer), or rather, simply note whatever I make new with date, ingredients and comments.

Are these suitable canning jars?

I was given a bunch of normal canning jars, but these two little guys were mixed in. Are they suitable canning jars? Or better used for something else? by tdubs702
