    Making some Black Raspberry Yogurt today, will be ready in 9 hours. It's been a long time since I've made yogurt and I haven't made a batch yet that I really like. I'm going to keep trying...

    I've been making cheeses lately. Preserving milk you could say. Before you ask, no I can't sell any, it's illegal without inspections and permits that I don't have right now. Today I'm making a Blue Cheese. I've made several Cheddars, a Parmesan, a couple Swiss too. I haven't gotten to try any...

    I got a new stove specifically for ease of canning a few months back. :lol: But it's working out great right now for making cheese too. Before the burners on the electric stovetop would lean and weren't level and I'd fight them constantly, no leaning now and perfectly level. :D

    I made some Cocktail Sauce (Shrimp Sauce) the other day. I haven't tried it, so I have no idea if the recipe is a good one or not. I'm glad to have it done though.

    I cut up and freeze jalapenos. I use them in omelets. I'm sure you could use them in fresh salsa if you wanted. They just are more tender than crunchy.

    It was however much peach juice and double that of sugar. So, 8 cups of juice, 16 cups of sugar. Then boil it for 10 minutes. Mine foamed up a lot so I tried skimming that off the best I could. It was a crazy recipe, but I think it turned out good. 1/2-inch headspace for 10 minutes.

    Found this @Sally PB To cure sweet potatoes after harvest, you need to12345: Shake off the soil then lay the tuber in a warm (80°F to 90°F/26-32°C), well-ventilated place for about 10 days, longer if the air temperature is cooler. Curing tubers in perforated plastic bags will keep the...

    We put it in Sweet Tea and Lemonade to make it peach flavored. Some people said they use it on ice cream and other things, but we haven't tried that.

    So, I'm running out of jars, so I dug out some really old ones so I could finish my peach syrup. This was a bad idea; the bottoms fell out of 2 and made a huge mess out of everything in my kitchen right at supper time. :( Need to get some more new jars. I canned 13 quarts of peach syrup now down...

    The other day I had one apple pie filling that didn't seal. It fell over in the canner when I was trying to pull them out, and I suspect that is why it didn't seal. Anyway, I'm going to make a couple apple breads today with that pie filling. Today I canned another 8 half pints of sweet relish...
