Fun Weekend Canning

[DirtTime]

Took our veggie run today. Tomorrow and Sunday will be fun. At least the weather cooled off.

Bushel of canning tomatoes, pint of habanero's, 1/2 peck mixed cherry bombs and jalapeños, 1/2 peck Hungarian wax, and 1/2 peck Bulgarian something.

I am not sure if we are doing salsa, but if we do I will make you a jar and ship it out to you. Sans tomatoes.

No salsa this batch. Sorry TF.

 

Tomatoes have been pureed, seasoned, and cooking down now. Well, what we fit in the pot at this time. Water is on to sanitize the jars for the peppers.

I love this stuff, but I always forget it's not easy and a PITA. LOL

I finished my test batch of baked poppers..Oh so good...and I canned  another 14 quarts of tomatoes...which puts me at 66 quarts of tomatoes and 10 of juice.I start pickling hot peppers this week.

[DirtTime]

Peppers are done 14 qts, sauce is still simmering, but almost there.

66 qts is a lot grow, but if i had space I sure as heck would make that much too.

What kind of cheese did you use for the poppers grow? Usually either just cream cheese, pepper jack, or extra sharp here.

Looking good...I use cream cheese,diced garlic,dash seasoning salt,Italian mixed cheeses. The peppers I grew are a medium heat jalapino pepper. The heat doesn't last long so it makes them very good.

Not sure if you have tried this, but when I make poppers at home I like to use panko crumbs and give a double coating of egg wash and crumbs. Nice crunch.

[growalot]

That's what I did..egg, flour, egg,  planko....baked on parchment,sprayed with olive oil and convection baked 425,20 mins

Not hijacking. That looks good. I did cauliflower, hungarian wax peppers, and tiny onions a few years ago. ( I have fresh garlic in everything I can ) It was good.

 

We simmered the sauce more this year, so we only got 20 qts, 19 in the pic and one will be used tomorrow.

Rob..... ever try sauerkraut? I just put up 7 quarts yesterday ...they are in a dark corner of the basement in a shallow pan for the next 4-6 weeks I will go down and clean jars and pan once a week as they bubble over fermenting...then I will hot water bath them...tomorrow I will do another 7 quarts...I pack the jars very tight so 3 big heads of cabbage per 7quarts
