Big Nectarine Harvest-
Here's how my weekend went.... Dave harvested all the nectarines, a big haul! I canned 19 Qts. and froze 15 gallons in ziploc bags. I am SO TIRED, but we got a lot of fruit! I also made a huge, lasagna-pan-sized cobbler, yummy! Surprising considering we had a major pruning done of it. I'm off to bed early tonight! My back is sooooo sore....
Just part of the harvest, we had 3 coolers full and one laundry basket
cobbler/crumble
Great stuff, no flavor or yellowing
big one!
My outdoor steam canner set up, nice when it's only 78 degrees...
Hubby's brother-in-law cans outside too. I may do that next season. Those nectarines look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWow, how wonderful to have all that put up for this winter. I can understand the sore back. Hope the good night's rest helped.
ReplyDeleteSince I have a glass topped range that's my only option right now. Yes a good nights sleep would be good!
ReplyDeleteYour nectarines are beautiful! Do you have any tips or tricks for peeling them efficiently?
ReplyDeleteHow many nectarine trees do you have? That is a bumper crop! I love your outdoor canning set up - it makes so much more sense. I almost wanted to dive into that big, gorgeous pan of cobbler/crumble!
ReplyDeleteDianna, since the skin is smooth I don't peel, just trim off the bad spots. No fuzz like peaches!
ReplyDeleteSusan, 1 tree! Loaded this year, more than ever. I have a glass topped range so no indoor canning for now. It creates more room too...
