Preserving Your Harvest

My new food mill arrived today, plus I got a pound of citric acid to use when canning tomatoes so I don't have to use lemon juice like I did last year.

I got a great deal on the food mill, $30.99 with a coupon and I had $15 gift card cash from Bing rewards, total cost $17.71. I like getting deals!

I emailed the manufacturer to see if I can get one of the ultra-small plates that'll strain out small berry seeds. That would be nice to have. The mill seems well made, heavy stainless steel, not flimsy.

Picked tomatoes and made stewed tomatoes.

I dug up all my onions and shallots yesterday. That got me thinking that my favorite part of bread and butter pickles is the onions. I found this recipe for bread and butter pickled onions that I think I'm going to try. Looks like it would be good.

I love your garden set up!

Personally, never been a fan of sweet pickles. I remember I once bit into a bread and butter pickle thinking it was dill and never got over that shock.

That recipe looks good. Red Chiles and ginger would be great in bread and butter pickles. Let me know how you like it after they sit a month or so.
