Clockwise, Top left: Chili, Ham and Bean Soup, Spit Pea Soup, Corn Relish |
I’m
starting my winter canning today, actually, by canning some
more chili for the pantry. I bought some
ground beef for $2.97 a pound, what I actually paid in 2020 too, and I have all
the other ingredients in my pantry. I
also have frozen corn I want to use, so I’m going to can Corn Relish.
Looking at my freezer and my
pantry inventory, I am also probably going to make Split
Pea Soup and Ham
and Bean Soup because I have
some ham shanks I want to use and I have less than a case of each soup on hand
and soup season isn’t over yet.
This gives me a chance to use
some jars that would have stayed empty until late summer canning, and I’m
replenishing my pantry.
I also usually can chicken and
hamburger during this season, but I have enough on hand already canned to last
this year, 45 half pints of chicken and 24 half pints of hamburger mix.
I use to can all the time. Don't do it very much any more.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a garden any more so I do more canning like this for easy meals on busy days. I do can whatever garden stuff folks share with us when they get too much.
DeleteThanks Annieh. I have probably experimented enough for both of us!
