Hot Peppers and Winter Prep

I finally found some habanero peppers, so another batch of hot sauce was canned. 


I used my own serrano and jalapeno peppers for this batch. I got exactly 4 - 4 oz. jars this time, and boy is it hotPersonally, hubby and I much prefer the first batch using cherry bomb (hot, but not burn-your-mouth-off hot).  It's all up to your taste I guess.

Did I share the recipe (BHG) link?  Triple Pepper Hot Sauce




I put more dandelions on the freezer.  I am pretty sure we'll be well stocked with greens, but I have another list that needs filled before the snow even thinks about falling.   


The barn cats are eating up a storm.  I am taking this as a warning to prepare for a bad winter.  They are already trying to fatten up. 

Today?  It's another day with tomatoes.   And the next day too.

  1. Good on you for the dandelions. They are a prized dish here but didnt think anyone outside Europe really ate them. They drink the dandelion vegetable water as well.

  2. you sure have been busy.
    I have not done any canning this year. We have a house we are trying to get ready for the market, so until then I don't see to have time for anything else.
    I hope next year is a better year.
    Happy Canning :)

  3. What are you going to do when your tomatoes are all canned? I bet it won't be sitting on your porch, relaxing. I really love hot stuff, but I can't take too much heat anymore.

  5. local alien, thanks for visiting my blog. Yes, we drink the tea here too, as well as eat them. I also bake a bread using the petals, as well as make jelly. All very good, but the jelly is much work.

  6. Oh Sandra, I bet you are busy. Getting a house ready is so time consuming, along with raising animals. Take care!

  7. Susan, I have a feeling I will be making some jellies when the tomatoes are done. And peach jam. Hubby is a "hot pepper" guy, so the hot sauce was for him, and a few recipes I use it for.
