Please help with recipe and processing time
Comments (8)I'd recommend you just go with the recipe Melly posted and halve it, which is quite easy to do. You can delete the nuts with no problem. You may have more clear jelly in the mixture, but other than that it's not an issue. Yield will be less also. The Blue Ribbon Preserves recipe has lemon juice added to compensate for the reduced pH due to the addition of coconut while the recipe you were originally looking at doesn't. Coconut is low-acid, so I wouldn't add it to a recipe that doesn't account for it. The processing times for all jams are the same - 5 minutes if you're using sterilized 4 oz. or 8 oz. jars, 10 minutes for hot clean jars but not sterilized. I prefer the 10-minute time. In the long run I think it's a saving of effort and I have not gotten as strong a seal with jars processed only 5 minutes. Then you add 5 minutes to that for your pint jars, just as an extra measure of safety. So as Ken mentioned, 15 minutes will be great. Carol...See MoreI HATE sweet spaghetti sauces, help with recipe!
Comments (11)This is still my favorite. From Ellie Topp's Small Batch Preserving. CHUNKY BASIL PASTA SAUCE 8 cups coarsely chopped peeled tomatoes -- (about 9-12 tomatoes or 4 lb) 1 cup chopped onion 3 cloves garlic, minced 2/3 cup red wine 1/3 cup red wine vinegar 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 1 teaspoon pickling salt 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar 1 6-oz can tomato paste Combine tomatoes, onion, garlic, wine, vinegar, basil, parsley, salt, sugar and tomato paste in a very large non-reactive pan. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 40 minutes or until mixture reaches desired consistency, stirring frequently. Remove hot jars from canner and ladle sauce into jars to within 1/2 inch of rim Process 35 minutes for pint jars and 40 minutes for quart jars in a BWB. Makes 8 cups.

Comments (11)I like the "tried and true" factor of this cooking forum also, can't beat it! Barb, I am the opposite - I prefer to stand and stir at the stove than check my microwave every few seconds - but whatever works, right? Sharon's peppermint bark is terrific (I made some last week to take to my granddaughter who loves it) and very Christmasy and its now on my regular Christmas schedule. I melt and stir on the stove, but I'm sure you could melt in the microwave instead. Diane's Tiger Bark is on my regularly scheduled Christmas program too, its the one that is dangerous for me, I can't stop eating it. Sharon's Peppermint Bark 1 lb bittersweet chocolate 8 drops peppermint oil 1 lb chopped white chocolate 3/4 cup chopped candy canes Line a 11 X 17 inch baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside Melt bittersweet chocolate in a heavy pan over low heat, stirring constantly. Stir in 4 drops of peppermint oil. Spread evenly over pan and chill for about 1 hour. Melt white chocolate in a heavy pot over low heat, stirring constantly. Stir in remaining 4 drops of peppermint oil and then add in candy cane. Spread white chocolate over chilled dark chocolate, spreading to the egde of the pan. Chill 4 hours. Refrigerate just until just before serving then break into pieces. Will keep in the fridge for 3 weeks. Diane's (Craftyrn) Tiger Bark =========== 1 Cup milk chocolate chips 2 Cups (12 ounces) vanilla milk chips or almond bark 2 Cups peanut butter chips 1/2 Cup chopped peanuts Line jellyroll pan with foil. In microwave, melt 3 types of chips separately, stirring until smooth. Pour melted peanut butter chips into prepared pan, spreading level. Sprinkle on peanuts. Pour melted vanilla and chocolate chips on top, drizzling each randomly. To marbleize, use knife to pull through chocolate in wide curves. Refrigerate until set. Break into squares ....See Morekathyg_in_mi
