What are you canning now?

Tell me how you dry your basil. Do you just hang upside down? Do you do in a dark place? Does it turn brown in the drying process?

I would heat up the broth mixture and then add the chicken and then can it. I have canned meats several, several times and when the meat is already cooked, the time it takes to can it is drastically reduced (which is a good thing)

So sure go ahead and get that stuff put ont he shelf for the winter. Cause remember.....Spring is only 6 1/2 months away

Yesterday I husked 125 ears and canned 30 quarts of Southwestern Corn. I love the way it looks in the jars! The yellow corn and black beans with bits of red and green peppers, onion, garlic, tomatoes, and both mild and hot chili peppers.....beautiful!

Today I am canning (shhhhhhhh!) chicken. My pressure cooker instructions call for only cooking the chicken halfway and then cutting it into chunks and packing/processing it. I am wondering because of what AoB and Henry's Chickens wrote, if I can cook it completely and then bone it without over cooking it to mush in the pressure canner and if it does shorten the processing time, how much so? My book says to process for 90 minutes. Does that sound right?

Thanks All!​

I finished up the ketchup Sunday - it took a lot longer to cook down than I had planned.
Yesterday, I took the day off from canning, freezing, drying...........
Today, it's back to work. I will do jalapeno peppers today. Grapes are ready so I'll get those picked for more jam tomorrow. We've never tried drying grapes and since we've been blessed with a large bounty of them this year, grapes will go into the dehydrator.

Happy canning!

Patchesnposies Your canning shelf is so beautiful!

I managed the following over the weekend

16 mini loafs of Blueberry Lemon Bread - to die for
4 1/2 pints Pickled Blueberries
8 pints of Carrot Cake in a Jar
8 pints Banana Bread in Jar

And, started another batch of Vanilla extract. Not much but was kind of a slow relaxing weekend. Picked another 4 pounds of Jalapenos so need to get them done this week.

Oh, I want that Corn recipe, too!

I did my corn already this year but I'll print it out and maybe next year I could do some. Right now I'm about to get my second batch of grape juice out of my canner. Grape jelly tomorrow!
