Growing Garlic Is Easy! Planting fall Garlic is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding experiences for us gardeners. Planting garlic cloves in the fall allows the roots to begin growing, and when winter arrives and the ground freezes, the plants go dormant. Once the soil warms up in the spring, the garlic will start growing again and producing the bulbs.

News Flash; Tomatoes are growing

News Flash; Tomatoes are growing

Well, the tomatoes are out! Phew, I hear you gasp – I know you’ve been worried about their progress. Covid is still lingering like a teenager hoping to cadge a tenner when they already owe you twenty. We cannot seem to shift it. The tomatoes slipped way down the list of things to do. Barely watered for the first few weeks of April, they nonetheless survived.  I even managed to pot them on,…

Italian Style Tomato Sauce

 I got this recipe from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving book. It’s one of our favorite sauce recipes, and well worth the effort! I only made minimal changes.

Ingredients:

5 lb plum tomatoes

2 finely chopped onions

2 finely chopped celery ribs

3 finely chopped carrots

4 cloves garlic, finely chopped

4 TBS bottled lemon juice

2 tsp salt

½ tsp freshly ground black pepper

½ tsp crushed red pepper

Prepare canner, jars and lids.

Blanch, peel, core, seed and chop tomatoes. Place in a colander and let stand for 15 min. Discard liquid and puree tomatoes in a food processor.

In a large stainless steel saucepan, combine 1 cup of the tomato puree you just made, onion, celery, carrot and garlic. Bring to a boil stirring frequently. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 5 min.

Add the rest of the puree one cup at a time.

Stir in lemon juice, salt, pepper and crushed red pepper.

Bring to a rolling boil for about 15 min stirring frequently.

Ladle hot sauce into hot jars, leaving ½ in head space. Remove bubbles and adjust head space. Wipe rims with white vinegar and close to finger tip tight.

Water bath can for 35 min. This makes about 3 pint jars.
