I haven’t tried them (or seen them yet) and am a little skeptical, but I did come across a video of a canning lady that tried out a pack of canning lids from Dollar Tree and they worked for her.

This looks too good to be true, after last year. This is Dollar General brand, I think?

Sorry, no, never waterglassed eggs before.

Yes, please! What is the taste like? I want to freeze some green tomato casseroles, but I suspect will have more green tomatoes. I finally figured out a fruiting bush we have to be a Washington hawthorn bush. I want to try making hawthorn ketchup. Anyone made this or tried it? I’m guessing the...

Also I wish I had y’all’s tolerance for hot peppers. I think I would like the flavor, just can’t take the heat! (Also can’t stand bell peppers). I have two MILD jalapeño plants that is still producing like gang busters. They are too hot for me 😢 I did make a few poppers (cheese helps anything)...

Seems I’m not getting reminders anymore … So we’ve got a hawthorn bush burgeoning with berries just starting to ripen. I was thinking of trying out hawthorn ketchup. Anyone had this? I’m guessing it would be somewhere along the lines of a fruity BBQ sauce or possibly something akin to sweet and...

Ooohh, yes, I just saw a video for a lilac cordial today (not canning). Are the downloads you have linkable?

Anyone one know if it is possible to can fruit and flower juices? I know you can water bath grape juice, but I was thinking more along the lines of hawthorn juice/cordial/drink. And I see various juices/drinks/lemonades/teas of various flowers, berries, and other non-grape things. Anyone tried...

Yes, definitely on the moisture part! I had mine in a gallon ziplock also with a silica packet. 🤔 I think I ordered the packets after the fact though? Mine weren’t salty, or at least not that I thought. Maybe I didn’t put as much. Tbh I don’t remember at this point :oops: Please let us know...

For the peeps doing the cuke chips - I ended up ‘baking’ them and they got brown and crunchy, and pretty good! Unfortunately the next day they were practically soggy. So from my experience, Cuke chips work and are pretty tasty, but you either need to eat them right away or have some way to...

Hot sauce - I like the flavors but can’t take the heat. That said, I have a couple jalapeño plants that were supposed to be a mild variety… yeah, no. Also thinking this was impacted by the weather. Anyhoo, I have a lot of small jalapeños that went pretty quickly red. I was thinking of making hot...

Sorry I haven’t responded - I think someone was asking about the cuke chips - I made two batches. I did not add the oil it called for, as the intent was for a diet snack … anyway, first batch turned out well. Second took forever to dry like a day?? Had someone else check them. They didn’t seem...

As far as cherry tomatoes - we have some cherries and grapes. I dehydrated some and they turn out fine enough. I’ll mostly just be snacking on them. Also tossed some in for tomato sauce. Just cut any tomatoes I had in chunks and cooked with a dash of water until soft, then ran through a hand...

Oh okay, I was looking for the one from Georgia. This one is much more affordable :D

Yeah, I remember doing wax for jams as a kid with mom and grandmom. Did some cherry jam once, then found it in the cellar with a wax cap 10 years after making it. Got my BF at the time to eat it :D (me too). It was still good, just lost some color. Nobody died. (Totally not doing wax anymore...

This is … a little stunning. Been referring to that book in my family for 2-3 generations. Not sure if it’s allowed, but can you post the Amazon link? I just searched and did not see anything that matched, just something that was $95!

Ooh, what’s yogurt jerky?

See the ‘face’ on the one pepper slice in the middle of the jar on the right? Yeah, that’s my face if I ever ate a Serrano pepper … 🤞 Fingers crossed your fermentation goes well!

I had some Mrs wages laying around and used it. Had a salsa packet too 😁 Kinda feels like cheating a little. I added some onions and a couple jalapeños that were supposed to be mild … Mrs wage’s dill pickle mix is pretty good, imo.

For cucumber chips this is what I looked at: https://farmtojar.com/salt-vinegar-cucumber-chips-baked-or-dehydrated/ As far as sunflower seeds, I had some last year and pretty much put them in a bag and fed to the chooks for treats, she’ll and all 😁
