I put up 7 pints of Good Mother Stallard heirloom beans today and they all sealed. This bean makes a really good broth which I like.

Latest canning project is for Christmas gifts. Trying the recipe for Apple Thyme Jelly. Makes 4-ish half pints. This should fit into my jam maker. Uses apple cider and I love making regular apple jelly from our local organic produce guy. He makes fresh cider every fall....until he runs out! adding thyme, the jelly goes on pork, cheese plates, and toast! Has anyone tried it?

Sara, the Bean Queen is Back! Sylvia, that sounds really good. Where did you find the recipe? We also have some good local cider right now. I canned 6 pts kosher pickles and 6 pts bread and butter, and 3 more pints of salsa. Have a ton of tomatoes to can. $6 for about 20 lbs at the Amish. Thinking of doing some stewed and maybe some bruschetta |

Lisa great job on your pickles and great buy at the Amish on tomatoes. As Michelle says "happy canning".

Here's what I found: Apple Thyme Jelly with Cider To make an easy apple thyme jelly, follow these simple steps: Gather ingredients: 4 cups apple juice, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, 1 package pectin, and sugar. In a pot, combine apple juice and thyme; bring to a boil. Stir in pectin and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add sugar (about 5 cups) and boil for another 1-2 minutes until dissolved. Remove from heat and strain to remove thyme leaves. Pour into sterilized jars and seal; process in a water bath if desired. 10 minutes. I plan on leaving the thyme leaves in the jars.

In case anyone is interested, Fillmore Container has Superb lids for $170 for 2100. Their shipping is pricy (like $25), but it still comes out to 9 cents a lid. I'm just trying to decide if I need 2100 lids! |

Lisa, it would take me 3 lifetimes to use that many lids.
