    Quote: You should blanch the green beans for 3 minutes beforethrowing them in a bag and freezing them. I had less than a canning run's worth of beans this morning so I washed them, broke them, blanched them for 3 minutes, cooled, bagged and put them in the freezer. We'll see how they are.

    Quote: I use a potato masher to crush mine. My mom puts her's through a food processor. Mine is more chunky. Mom's is more like a jelly. I think either will work, it just depends on the consistensy you prefer.

    I went to Kroger yesterday to get the chipotle peppers and freezer jam pectin for the blackberry chipotle jam, but couldn't find any of the freezer jam pectin.

    Quote: I put up lots of blackberry freezer jam the past two days. There are lots of berries left so I'm thinking something different sounds good. I like the sound of this but I have a very stupid question. How do you eat it? On bread like a normal blackberry jam? I use this as a marinade...

    This is my first year as a canner. My mom canned when I was growing up and I would help her sometimes, but mostly as a gopher (go-fer this, go-fer that). This year we put out a garden and have bought some fruit as well. So far I have canned 4 runs of Blue Lake green beans and frozen 4 qts of...
