I love making bread and butter pickles and I cut the corn off the cob to use in soups during the winter. I don't have much room for much else but I would love to do some tomatoes, squash and okra. Just need to get to farmers market soon.

I can green beans and freeze zucchini, green tomatoes, and corn. This year I want to freeze broccoli and cauliflower. Has anyone done this and if so can you tell me how, please?
Krystyna how do you can stuff from the freezer?

I hadn't planned on doing this today but I'm canning green beans. I sent my husband to pick peaches and blackberries yesterday and he came home with blackberries, peaches, and green beans. He wanted me to cook up a large batch to keep in the refrig. However, my daughter and two grandsons are living with and now, and there is no way it would fit in the refrig, so I'm canning. I enjoy it but it makes me nervous with the little ones around. When my kids were little I did it before they got up or after they went to bed. I'm too tired at night to do it once the kids go to bed now! Our garden is producing but it's not ready to pick. I'm freezing the blackberries and peaches.

Southern cooking demands green beans cooked until soft in ham broth, with new potatoes thrown in. A big cast iron skillet of cornbread, baked ham, ice sweet tea, with peach cobbler for dessert. So good!!

I have a smooth top stove and I use my waterless cookware to do cold packing and my pressure cooker works very well on the hot burner in the back. Mine has a dark finish so it stays looking nice as well. I like to can green beans, and all kinds of dry beans to make preparing a meal faster. I make mustard pickle relish out of green tomatoes. I like to make my own salsa out of peppers and tomatoes from the garden. My husband has decided this year that he doesn't want a garden, so we are resting this year. I will miss these items, because I have recipes that I use them in. I am hoping he will want to do a garden next year.

I used to come home from work around 530 fix supper then start canning til 1or so go to bed and get up at 6 and start all over again. I didn't like to can then but now when I can't can as much as I did, I love it. Just wish I was able to do more than I can.

I began canning jams a few years ago apple pear, pineapple apricot and apple butter and usually make them as low in sugar as I can.
Anyone have a good hot pepper jam? I would love to make some for 2 of my BILs who love hot stuff.
