Here's a slightly different version of Pickled Beets called Phat Beets from Martha Stewart. http://www.marthastewart.com/338448/phat-beets?czone=food/pr... Mid Atlantic Musings Quote | Post #722915 (3)

Well here is a delicious sounding recipe for making jam from The Herb Companion. It uses two of my favorite summer garden items, peaches and lavender. http://www.herbcompanion.com/cooking/quick-jams-lavender-pea... Mid Atlantic Musings Quote | Post #732046 (4)

We still had a couple jars of beets from last year, but we just did 6 more pints this morning. Our daughter discovered them last year when we went to Fla so we made a few jars for her. So far, Gary has made jellies this year, cherry, raspberry, blackberry and strawberry. And I made 20 jars of pickles. Then I freecycled the rest of the cukes, I was pickled out - lol. We ordered a bushel and that was way too many - lol I'm up in the air about tomatoes. We'd have to buy more jars, buy the tomatoes. I know they would taste so much better, but not sure if I want to do all the work. Maybe in a week or so, I'll feel like doing them. http://cubits.org/TartWarmersandMore/ New - Plants for Sale - co-op prices Quote | Post #732082 (5)

Whoa Pam, Cherry Jelly sounds really good. I don't think that I've ever had any. Mid Atlantic Musings Quote | Post #732088 (6)

You cook all the juice from the cherries and that gives you the juice to make the jelly. Comes out ruby clear. http://cubits.org/TartWarmersandMore/ New - Plants for Sale - co-op prices Quote | Post #732093 (7)

It sound delicious Pam. Do you use a cherry pitter? Mid Atlantic Musings Quote | Post #732104 (8)

No, Gary just split and squeezed them. Since you are cooking the juice out of the cherries and drain them through a sieve, it doesn't matter if you miss a pit or too. There is no pulp in the jelly. http://cubits.org/TartWarmersandMore/ New - Plants for Sale - co-op prices Quote | Post #732135 (9)

Ok, I see. I was thinking more along the lines of a preserve or jam. Mid Atlantic Musings Quote | Post #732144 (10)
