5 batches of preserves – just over 10 liters of goodies for the winter are ready and waiting for the winter ahead – what a weekend! There are 58 bottles in all – sweet cherries, golden raspberry jam, multi-currant jelly, red raspberry jam and gooseberry jam. None have added pectin and all are from Ontario. [...]

It’s mid July and the cool of summer has been extending growing seasons. Today’s post is a short reminder – our version of a public service announcement. 90 Minutes of work today can bring you fresh flavour beyond compare come winter. 90 minutes can make the difference between a chemical-filled, poor tasting, imported, gellatenous composite [...]

Our friend Margaret Mulligan is back (here and here). Margaret gave us a call and asked us if we’d like to “help” her Sister and Brother-in-law with their sour cherry bounty – they had picked all they wanted and the rest were destined for the lawn. We were more than happy to help – and [...]

It’s the end of my 3rd batch of preserves in two nights. 3 liters of strawberry jam, 4 jars of preserved strawberries in syrup and 3 jars of stewed rhubarb. It’s going to be a good winter. This post may not be very exciting to those of you who do not make preserves – I [...]

There are few things in life that I adore more than a surprise. I actually like the feeling of being surprised more than the content of the surprise myself. Those who have been reading for a while may recall the story of one of my most favourite servers in the world, Heather, who would regularly [...]

This is about as easy as it gets – set aside a few hours and you`ll be off to the races. This applesauce will be as good as it gets – it took me 5 or 6 hours to turn 75 pounds of apples into 9 liters of sauce (36-1 cup bottles) but you could [...]
The Hidden Pleasure of Preserving

It’s been a while since we’ve put a posting up about preserving – the Canadian winter certainly limits options to create new preserves (although it is certainly possible) and it’s more about consuming than creating and making new preserves…or so I thought. Preserving is the closest thing we have to time travel. It’s an amazing [...]
