DO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW
HAVE A GAMBLING PROBLEM?
Canning season
approaching
June is the perfect time of year
to inventory jars, lids and freezer
containers. Stores are featuring
the newest food preservation
supplies and advertising special
prices. Knowing what you have
on hand and estimating needs for
this summer will help save
money. Buying food preservation
supplies on "special" rather than
waiting until produce is ready
saves money and time.
If you plan on making jam and
jelly, check the expiration dates
on pectin products. The expiration
date will be printed on the
package. If you don’t find the
package. If you don't find a date,
it's probably because the pectin
was produced a long time ago.
Using pectin more than two years
old is a cause of jam and jelly
failures.
Check the date of production on
canning lids before you start the
canning process. Lids produced
more than one or two years ago
are less likely to give a reliable
seal (especially if they have been
stored in a garage with
temperature extremes).
Now is also the time to make a
conscious effort to use up last
year's preserved foods.
Although you can still use
preserved foods that are more
than a year old, the quality and
nutritive value o f the food
decreases with age.
