It's a great time of year to be canning. If I had the time, I'd be picking up a ton of peaches at the farmer's market to make peach jam with! But other things I've enjoyed canning in the past have been cranberry jelly and my all-time favorite apple butter. What is your favorite canning recipe?

I can tomatoes, tomato puree, tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce, peaches, pears, fruit cocktail, soups, broth, pickles, relishes, applesauce, various sauces, caramel sauces, etc.

This reminds me that I need to go out while the tomatoes are available and can some for the winter. They retain so much of the flavor and it's great to get nice tasting tomatoes in January.

A few years ago I canned my own crop, but I can't grown my own where I live now as the deer eat them before I can pick them.

We prepare our jars, and fill them indoors. But we process them outside with this huge propane burner so the heat stays outside.

I really only can the peeled tomatoes. They're quite useful in recipes that call for sauce as you can toss some canned tomato paste in as a thickener.

I've never canned anything before, and if I did, I would probably sell everything I canned. I don't like canned fruits anyway.

Neither do I (canned fruits) but I love them homemade!!! There is such a big difference!
