There are several different designs, and just as many sizes... I know they'll all get some kind of use, eventually. But I did find some that were perfect for the lids of my fig jam....
Now I just have to make a couple more batches so I actually have some to give away for Christmas - that stuff is well-loved, to say the least!
I did a little more canning with my bonus day off on Monday... I made some strawberry jam and the chili-tomato jam (it worked this time)! A few photos...
Strawberry...
Cooking and mashing....
Almost done...
Skimming off the foam...
Letting the husband sample it on a piece of toast (it was heavenly!)
Finished product...
Chili-Tomato Jam:
Lots of peppers... ( Ieven bought two habaneros, but I only put one tiny strip of each one in it - really ratcheted up the heat!)
I was smart enough to wear gloves this time!
cooking it down....
The days bounty! 6 jars of strawberry jam, 7 jars of the chili-tomato jam, and only one tag fastened on them!
Have a happy day!
