I'm juicing the first batch of grapes (from 80 lbs. that my parents picked for me) to make jelly. Jelly goes quick in this house!

36 jars of applebutter, 22 jars of applesauce. I still have apples, but only a few jars left. has anyone ever frozen applesauce? Is it still good when it thaws out?

I cannot master those things that I have not tried.

Unfortunately we didn't get a garden in this year, but hope to next year. Luckily we have some left over from the last year's canning. I love canning! I am waiting anxiously for chicken or ground beef to go on sale so I can can some meats. I have lots of green beans, corn, peas, peas and carrots, and I don't know what all already canned. I did can some roast beef this year.

I do have a question for all of you canners, well, actually 2. Number 1. Have any of you ever tried canning rice or dried beans? My husband is wanting to can them dry in a water bath canner. I don't know if it will work or not. Number 2. Have any of you ever canned butter? I found a recipe on the net on how to do it and am wanting to can some soon. We don't use a whole lot of butter, but I still think it would be great to have on hand!

Living in the wrong century!

Debbie,
I came across an article in Countryside magazine about dry canning, in your oven, for things like dried beans, flours and rice. Send me a message and I can send you more info. =)
