  • This year was our best year for canning to date, so let's go on a tour of our pantry and show you what we have! Not only do we show you what we have in our pantry but we touch on a couple of cost-saving tips which we will delve into more in an upcoming video! For now, sit back and relax as we take you on a guided tour of our pantry explaining what we canned, why we canned it, and what we use it for!
    We hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

      Crypto staking. Investment and Trading are three different things entirely. This is also one of the best time to be involved.... I learnt a lot with these platform, make sure to only deal with established firms for your safety.

    Green tomatoes will ripen in the house. I had an early frost, brought in alllll the green tomatoes and left them in trays. Over the next 6 weeks, I kept pulling what was ripe and ended up with 4 more gallon bags to put in the freezer until I processed them into 34 jars of bbq sauce for us. Last year I did green tomato salsa, and we love that as a marinade for pork roast in the crock pot. Pull the meat, put on tacos, etc. So good!

    As pasta noodles are a dried food, I don't think you have to package them specifically for long term. Your store bought pasta will be fine in the package that it comes in.

    • @living.different
      @living.different  Рік тому +2

      Yep of course! I’ll just copy and paste it :
      🍎 Here is the EASIEST apple cider recipe you’ll ever use! You will need:
      * About 10 apples
      * 3/4 cup sugar
      * 1 Tbsp cinnamon
      * 1 Tbsp ground all spice
      * Water to cover 2 inches above apples
      Bring all ingredients to a boil uncovered for about an hour.
      Put the lid on and simmer for another 2 hours.
      Strain out chunks and then strain again through cheese cloth. Fresh apple cider, it’s really that simple. You can then process it in half pint jars for individual servings and water bath for 15 minutes. It will last on the shelf for up to two years!
