I'm working on a tight budget, and love to can, but HATE buying jars. Especially when so many people just toss them. So a quick ad on kijiji for free jars just netted me hundreds of rims, new seals, 18 quarts, and 84 jam/jelly jars of various sizes! And a really old preserve book thrown in! Woohoo! Before my ad, it was all headed to the recycle bin.
So, what do you like to can?
I normally make 12 different flavours for Christmas gifts, but with this many jars... wow, the possibilities!
crab apple jelly
crab apple (and a sweeter apple mixed in)applesauce
hot pepper jelly
banana date chutney
pineapple chutney
pickles (if my garden grows the way I need it to!)
pumpkin butter
