Preserving Summer
Canning and preserving foods are old-fashioned, right? Not anymore. Many are resurrecting their grandmother’s tradition of “putting up” the abundant fruits and vegetables of summer. With the market overflowing with gorgeous produce, students learn the traditional method of canning fresh fruits and vegetables and go home with the know-how to stock your pantry full of canned treasures. You’ll discover the joys of opening a homemade crock of spicy chutney to serve with dinner this winter and the simple pleasure of giving shimmering jars of delectable jams to family and friends.
Each student will take home a selection of items made in class. Class includes snacks and all materials and supplies.
MENU: Strawberry & Peach Jams; Mango Chutney; Red Pepper Jelly; Bread & Butter Pickles; and more
