Chef I don’t do much canning, either. Mostly pickles. I’ve only done water bath canning, too. I need to see about a pressure canner, though, since I have so much freezer space taken up with homemade stock.

Chef I water bath mainly, but do some pressure canning. Been doing it off and on for quite awhile. Mainly pickling, kraut and salsa. Also a bit of fermented veggies.

We have been canning since the 70’s, but used to probably do more back then than we do now as we had bigger & more productive gardens & I learn something new it seems every time we do something & forget even more. We use a big Presto Aluminum Pressure canner, but not always in the pressure mode. we have canned preserves (jellies, jams, etc. I call them all preserves just about), fruit butters, pickled this that & the other (Okra, Asparagus, Peppers, Onions, Oiled Peppers, regular pickles, Turnips, I am sure I forgot something), Spiced fruits, Green Beans, Asparagus, Tomatoes, King Creole Sauce, Peas, Hot Sauce, Okra, & Chow Chow. Then we dry things, mostly peppers & we have tried watermelon, & some other fruit slices. We probably do more preserves these days & dry peppers, but not too much because we have a lot.

Anyone have a favorite quick dill pickle recipe? Just haven’t found one that really nails it…
Parksider Find someone that grows grapes and get some leaves from their plants. I never was very happy with my home canned dills until I found this trick to making good crunchy pickles. Put a grape leaf in the bottom of the jar, pack the jar with a recipe that sounds good and place another leaf on top, seal and process. I’ve opened jars that were 2 years old and they are still fresh and crunchy. Soggy pickles are the pits!

@Fat-Bob Well that is interesting. We have grapes & maybe we need to get serious about pickling again. We haven’t been really serious about them since the 80’s & before them we pickled up a lot of cucumbers, radishes, & even turnips & grew all our own too. We had a good hot bath method & a good refrigerator method (the crunchiest). However, other than a friend’s really good conversion recipe, we don’t do that many any more, but we need to try this.
