It's been a busy several days around the Little Farm. Busy in a good way, but busy just the same. In the past week or so, I've spent about 20 hours in the kitchen canning everything in sight. Well, maybe not everything in sight, but it sure seemed like it. These have been some late nights, but I'm thankful to have the work to do and know it will mean good things for our family in the months to come. Praise God!
Here's what I've been up to:
-45 qt of applesauce canned or frozen (mostly canned)
-48 c of apple slices frozen
-22 qt of apple pie filling canned
-9 pt of apple butter made and frozen
-30 c of green beans frozen
-8 qt of dilly beans
-15 qt of salsa
-30 c of corn frozen
See what I mean? If you were a fruit or veggie around my kitchen, you went into a canning jar or a ziploc bag last week.
All this time in the kitchen meant lots of time for thinking which means I've got several blog posts rolling around in my head. Stay tuned!
I have not found a canned salsa recipe I like yet. We love pico de gallo but, of course, you can't can that. When you have a minute (ha, ha) could you share your salsa recipe? Thanks!
