September 17, 2012

a wonderfully busy day.....LOVE getting a bunch accomplished....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

cut the salmon into chunks for canning....put it in a mixture of 2 quarts water
 with 1/2 cup canning salt... let it set for 1 hour


drain for about 10 minutes and put in pint or half pint jars


process in a Pressure Cooker for 100 minutes at 10 lbs pressure


we opened the little one....and it tasted WONDERFUL!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

then onto smoking the rest of the salmon...
soak it in the same brine solution....

placed it on the racks of the smoker


2 1/2 hours at approx 225 degrees....


then the seal a meal comes out....


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

thought I was done canning greenbeans....and then Ross asked if I had
done any dilly beans this year....so we picked another 10 lbs of beans...


I had never heard of dilly beans until we moved here....basically instead of pouring water
over your beans when you can them....you pour the same mixture you use for dill pickles...


we put up 16 pints.....that should last him a year!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

and then for dessert we picked a watermelon...sooooo sweet!!!


Watching Monday Night football....

Pleasant Dreams!!!
