Fall/winter canning season 2015/16

Since I started doing random canning it's not unusual for my hubby to see the canner on the stove at any time day or night. Got the time down to if making chicken broth its 40 min for pints if chicken is added its 70.

Doing a lot of soups now

Canned Split pea and ham 4 pints on Saturday night.

Made a chicken noodle soup that I am going to freeze in smaller containers.
I used  4 pints of broth one that I made from the broth when I did a chicken Adobe (yum!) and also one where I made a raspberry vinaigrette. Soup was very flavorful and added dried celery leaves from my celery plants that I restart.

Really enjoying this journey of making my own recipes on a budget.
