Carnival of Home Preserving, August 18, 2008

Welcome to the August 18, 2008 edition of carnival of home preserving! I hope you enjoy reading the informative posts this week!  In our garden we have mostly zucchini so far….we are now the crazy zucchini neighbours..you know the ones, perhaps you are one yourself?  Any time you have company, “Would you like a zucchini?”.  We’ll be slicing and freezing the excess.

Canning

Laura Williams presents Laura Williams’ Musings: Barbecue Sauce, a barbecue sauce recipe and canning instructions, posted at Laura Williams’ Musings. .  I see that it doesn’t include any cornstarch or wheat!  We are going to have to try this one, our oldest daughter has allergies.

Heather presents A Guide, sharing the little known beauty benefits of canning and preserving, a tongue in cheek guide, posted at A Place of Quiet Rest.

Anthony presents Grandma’s Kitchen Harkens Back To An Era Gone By, describing a woman who is making canning a business, posted at Stark County, Ohio News And Views….

Michele presents Rhubarb-Rose Jam - using roses in canning,  posted at Frugal Granola.

Fermentation

EcoSalon presents Fermentation Nation with a basic cabbage and carrots fermentation recipe, posted at EcoSalon.

Freezing

Barb presents My Daily Round: Yesterday’s Kitchen Day with a quick and easy method of freezing herbs for single serving use, posted at My Daily Round.

That concludes this edition, hope you’ve enjoyed it, I know I have!  Thanks for coming by.

    I used to be the crazy zucchini lady - if anyone at church left their car doors open, I’d slip a few in on the driver’s seat where they were sure to find them! Share the wealth, right? We like to grate the extra zucchini and freeze it in two cup portions for favorite bread and muffin recipes.

    Thanks for hosting this week!

    I don’t have a “zucchini neighbor” this year, and I miss it! :) For some reason, we never planted any. I’ve been getting them at the Farmer’s Market. But it’s so weird to actually BUY zucchini! :)

    Blessings,
    Michele

    I quite enjoyed this carnival. It’s not a subject I’ve posted on before…and now I’m thinking about writing more posts I can submit to future editions.

    In the spirit of blog carnival benefits, I enjoyed your site here and if you’d like to make room in your Blogroll for The Lives and Times… I’d be happy to swap links.

    There are three popular and distinct varieties of roses that people may choose from. In case a garden plot is small, people may decide on miniature rose bushes, which are readily available on the market. These can be grown in flowerpots or in the ground.

    I live in an urban area, but have a backyard and frontyeard that support a lot of fruit and vegetables. Our local food banks have been suffer large shortages of food so this year the excess is going to the foodbanks. We have only canned about 4 jars per month to store by during the winter. So we will for the most part be eating only seasonal fruits and veggies this year.
