Hey!!! I'm so excited for baking season and completely cleaned our ovens this morning so they're all ready to go! 🍞🍪 In next Sunday's video I make a sourdough starter and also canned beef in our new electric pressure canner, or "smart" canner. 🫣 Not sure if I like it or not yet though. 🤔Also, the cranberry jalapeno jam is really good if you like sweet and spicy, it's excellent with cheese and crackers!! 🧀 When I need more, I will make a video on it. 😁
Look at the beautiful colour of the cranberries 😮. You could put a big splash of lemon juice in as it has pectin in it. I use it in pineapple jam and it takes a bit of the sweetness away too..😊 I love it when you have a little bit left over then you can eat it straight away 😉 I've said it before and i will say it again, you really do work hard in your garden and then your kitchen, anything you grow does not go to waist 😊 I obviously write my comments as the video goes on as you added lemon juice to the next cranberry jam you made..😬😉 You need to grow your own cranberries 😁 I absolutely did enjoy this video...❤🐮🐮🐮
I love the color of the cranberries too!! ❤️ Adding the lemon juice to the cranberry jalapeno jam got it to firm up much quicker, I'm glad you mentioned that. 🍋 I like it when there's enough left over to try right away too, it's always the best fresh out of the pot. 😋 I try not to waste anything but definitely could do better with using everything we grow, like turning scraps into vinegars, or drying tomato skins to make tomato powder... someday I'll get there!! 😁 I have to research more about growing cranberries. I would like to grow our own! I always thought that they needed a bog to grow in, and we are not set up for that, but there maybe other ways. Thank you so much Manda Moo!!! I show the garlic peeler in next Sunday's video. 🤗
@TheBourneHomestead I have just bought two "honey berry " bushes. I hope I can get them to grow OK. They look delicious. You will have to get Steve out with a shovel to dig a big hole and put some pond liner in it then fill it back in with compost and leaves from the woods, that will make I nice bog.. 😁🐊🐸🐄🐄🐄
Oooooo what's honey berry!?! Please share a video about them. Are you planting them at home or a the big garden? Hahaha, I'm going to look into growing cranberries and see if there are ways to do it. 😆🐊
@TheBourneHomestead they look like elongated blueberries but I believe they taste like honey. I will send you a photo on messenger of the lable,, Yes. Please please please have a go with cranberry 🙏 💕 🐄🐄🐄
Finally, someone else that eats the seeds! I notice that pepo varieties of squash have the best tasting seeds, then moschata and maxima are not so great. But no noticeable difference in the amount of sweetness in the flesh, they all have a huge range.
That's so interesting!! I've only tried roasted pumpkin seeds, and the Lady Godiva ones are my favorite as they have no outer shell. I don't think I ate any of the seeds from that giant pumpkin we grew a few years back, but I can imagine why those wouldn't be great to eat. So it's usually just the CT field pumpkin seeds or smaller like sugar pies that we eat. Maybe I'll try the seeds from the butternnut and honey nut squash we grew this year. 😊
lady Godiva, carving pumpkins and feild pumpkins are cucurbita pepo, so I don't think that any other squash would have better tasting seeds. Acorn, spaghetti squash and delecata are also cucurbita pepo
@@phillippinter7518 They are both pepo, but the lady godiva seeds do not have a shell, that's why I mentioned them separately. 😊 Crookneck pumpkins or moschata squash, like butternut, generally aren't eaten for their seeds, but I would like to try them. I have grown "state fair winner" pumpkins (maxima) and have not eaten those seeds as they seem they would be woody and difficult to roast. 😁
I don't wash them until I'm storing them in the fridge. They can sit on the counter for a while with the bloom / cuticle, but we go through a lot of eggs and it's easier when they're all ready to go, especially during busy mornings.

I know I have said this before but your choice of music makes it so enjoyable!!
Thanks! Glad you like it! 😁🎶

Why dont you leave the bloom kn the eggs?
