I've been canning quite a bit these days. Canning USA has some nice videos like this one on canning chili.
With all the talk of the economy pressing down on us, I figured it might be a good idea to can some food at today's prices. Why not can food that costs less now for eating when the same food will cost more?
Chili
4 lbs. ground beef
4 tsp. salt
2 c. onion, chopped
6 T. chili powder
2 garlic cloves, chopped fine
2 tsp. paprika (optional)
2 qts. canned tomatoes
1 tsp. pepper
Brown ground beef, onion, and garlic. Add remaining ingredients. Cook slowly for 15 min. Fill jars to within 1 inch of top. Process quarts 90 min. 10 pounds of pressure.
Precious moments with my husband and children are like bubbles. They appear suddenly, float by gently and disappear. I'd like to try to capture them here. Grandma always told me "It's the best time of your life when your babies are small." I'd like to prove her right and savor every minute.
