This weeks Try it Tuesday activity is canning.
I gave it a try over the weekend and was surprised at the ease of it. Really the most complicated part was peeling and cutting the peaches. It's a great way to preserve your favorite fruits/veggies while they are in season and cheap. Over the weekend I made a peach preserve because peaches were $.67/lb.
Friday some friends are coming over and we're making Strawberry Jam with a secret ingredient.
Christmas is going to be easy this year. Everyone is going to be getting baskets of my canned goods. I'll be giving salsa a try later in the month when my tomatoes from the garden are hopefully abundant.
Freshpreserving.com is a great website with recipes and how-to's for canning.
