More Canning


I always try to can something new. This year there were a couple of things. However, I am looking forward to eating the pears most. Once again Jay and Kathy let me come down and pick fruit from their tree. I am going to do apples this week, but the pears look delicious and they were good before I canned them. Yum All they need now is a plum tree.



Parker loves salsa, but not the big chunks of tomato and onions. I pureed some today and thickened it w/ tomato paste. I put it in little jars 1/2 pint. It was good. One jar did not seal and yes... I had to sample it.


Another first. Chili base


Food tip: When using a pressure canner add a little vinegar to keep the white film that develops on the jars
