    veggie stock is easy... take a big pot of boiling water and add in the ends of celery... i even pull apart the base and wash it and toss it in the pot... I toss in onions including the ends and skins... the skins give it a deep dark color as well and carrots... a clove of garlic, some bay leaves and if you like you can add in things like tomatoes or whatever else ... just nothing like broccoli cauliflower cabbage or other stinky veg. after it has boiled gently for a couple hours strain it through a fine mesh strainer and put it in jars 1 inch headspace in a pressure canner processed for 35 mins. You can save your leftover vegs from when you are chopping it up for dinners and just toss the ends in a bag in the freezer. It is totally possible to do this from scrap.

    I'm a total newb at canning. However, I started because Peavey Mart (in Saskatoon) had canning kits on for $5, so I bought two! And, I thought, what the heck, it's time to try something new!

    So for my first canning project, I made a spicy crabapple jelly (about 6 weeks ago), which turned out AMAZING! This past week I made a Pomegranate-Habanero Jelly and a Chipotle Mango BBQ Sauce, both of which I am using for Xmas gifts for friends and family! Both the PomHab Jelly and the BBQ sauce turned out great!

    Love all the canning picks and ideas! They are inspiring me to try different things. After I'm done finals this semester and on Xmas break, I may attempt some other canning projects!

    That is awesome couponier! I didn't post my beet ketchup but it worked very well... i put it in a sweet and sour meatball dish in the crockpot... the crockpot is a slow enough cook that it made the purple disappear and my daughter who is not allergic to tomato could not tell the difference..... I also made a cherry ketchup because i want to make a cherry jack bbq sauce... it is dang expensive to make at this time of the year... but the sauce will work well for making a bbq sauce. I have to try a plum ketchup before i dive into the cherry bbq sauce... and find a small bottle of jack daniels ... I have not been in a liquor store in so long I have no idea how small the bottles go.... soon there will be ribs in the smoker tho!!!

    WOW! That sounds delicious! I wish there was a way to trade canning goods! Haha, I would totally love to try some of the things everyone has been canning.

    Hi cheekysaver, have you taken a pressure canner gauge to a car radiator repair shop and had them test it for you?

    That is a good question. No I do not get mine tested. When I got my pressure canner I bought a set of weights. I took off a 5lb weight and added on washers to get my regulator to 12-13lbs. I never need to worry about the gauge now and my pressure canner requires less babysitting. Here is the vid that shows how to do it.

    and on the same note...any tried and true experts at making Hopping FROG jam or Toe Jam? While in NY last weekend, we stopped at a PA Ductch food store and saw so many variations of jams and jellies but I wasn't entirely sure of what we could take home. I do wish that there was one comprehensive listing of cross-border shopping.

    Sorry I am late. When it comes to ginger jelly there are a few recipes when you google it. Unfortunately I don't see one from a reliable canning source. Here is the weird part... frog jam, no problem! LOL

    Hi, everyone! Oh, how I missed doing my canning last year after my accident! I still remember the sweet bread and butter pickles I made (and posted a pic on here) two years ago....that I absolutely must make again soon, now that BBQ season is here....yep, I put them on my burgers, lol. I made some apple chutney last week, but only one recipe, which made only enough to keep in the fridge. I processed mango chutney a few years ago, so I want to do that again.

    Ohhhhhh....with my hubby's help, I can manage this, this summer!!

    Cheekysaver, keep up the great work encouraging us and sharing your wonderful recipe ideas!

    Thanks cheekysaver! I discovered that site last night while browsing again. Looking to add some jalapenos to make it into Hoppin' FROG jam
