http://canninggranny.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Water Bath Canning for Beginners. Thursday, June 27, 2013. Just after the Easter/Passover season I bought a nice-sized leg of lamb. regular price $60 plus. for $18! I brought it home and put in the freezer. it was probably 8-10 lbs. and there are only the two of us. thought I'd save it for company. or can it. Now with this shower for my daughter coming up and berries coming in and needing the freezer space. I pulled it out the other day and thawed it. I wiped the jar rims with a damp cloth and tightened ...

Canning Granny: Wild Honeysuckle Syrup
http://canninggranny.blogspot.com/2014/05/wild-honeysuckle-syrup.html
Water Bath Canning for Beginners. Sunday, May 4, 2014. When I was growing up, honeysuckle blooms were so much fun. they meant summertime to us! They smelled so very sweet and we'd pick them and ever so slowly and carefully pull the stamens out and suck off the drop of tasty nectar from each one. Sweet and sticky and yummy! My parents were always trying to get rid of honeysuckle. I never understood this as a child. it was so pretty and smelled so good. and gave us a delicious summertime snack! But it smel...

Canning Granny: Canning Turkey Bone Broth
http://canninggranny.blogspot.com/2013/12/canning-turkey-bone-broth.html
Water Bath Canning for Beginners. Thursday, December 5, 2013. Canning Turkey Bone Broth. I almost didn't write this blog post. ONE. I didn't remember to take very many pictures of the process. and TWO. it's so easy, I wasn't sure anyone would benefit from it. but, then, I thought maybe someone, who has never attempted to do anything with a leftover Thanksgiving turkey carcass, would indeed have a thing or two to learn. I added some salt, and other spices (garlic powder, peppercorns, a couple bay leaves&#...

Canning Granny: Canning Corn
http://canninggranny.blogspot.com/2014/07/canning-corn.html
Water Bath Canning for Beginners. Sunday, July 6, 2014. Honestly, I don't usually can corn. it freezes so nicely and is much less work to freeze than it is to can. but alas, I have no more freezer space and a bushel of beautiful sweet "peaches and cream" corn. so I canned it. I'm also really really lousy at cutting corn off the cob. Mr. G bought me this handy dandy corn cutter made by OXO that helped TREMENDOUSLY! But I'm still pretty lousy at it. Before I was ready to pack my corn, I got my jars and lid...

Canning Granny: July 2014
http://canninggranny.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Water Bath Canning for Beginners. Saturday, July 12, 2014. After I cut off and canned my corn, I made corn cob syrup from the cobs. I put all the cobs in my bid stockpot and covered them with water. brought the water to a boil, lowered the heat and simmered them, covered, for two hours. I then drained the liquid into another pot and discarded the cobs. I stirred in the sugar(s), brought the mixture to a boil, and boiled gently until the mixture reduced and thickened to a syrup consistency. Honestly, I do...
