Caraway Apple Sauerkraut

Caraway Apple Sauerkraut

Sauerkraut is a traditional staple food for a reason. It’s a delicious way to naturally preserve fresh vegetables and even fruits into and through the winter months, and is more digestible and nutritious than it’s component parts. You can scale this recipe up to make a large batch or down, just keep the ratios of salt to cabbage the same (you can use slightly more salt to taste but not less). The nutty caraway seeds are delicious with the sweet apples and tart pickled cabbage.

Classic Southern Pecan Pie

Classic Southern Pecan Pie

This traditional southern pecan pie is a great addition to your holiday pie table, or to bake and make any day special! It has a rich, caramel flavored filling, with buttery pecans and a flaky pastry crust. I recommend a homemade all-butter crust, but you can use your favorite quality store-bought crust in a pinch (though the pie won't be quite as good).

Zuppa Toscana – Sausage, Potato, Kale & White Bean Tuscan Soup Recipe

Zuppa Toscana – Sausage, Potato, Kale & White Bean Tuscan Soup Recipe

This pressure canning recipe for Zuppa Toscana is a flavorful, substantial soup that combines Italian sausage, potatoes, white beans and greens to make a delicious, pantry-ready meal. This recipe was developed using the guidelines in FNH-00065, "Canning Soups and Sauces", a bulletin released by the University of Alaska, Fairbanks Cooperative Extension, which permits using diced celery and onion in make-your-own brothy soup recipes, even though those two ingredients do not have listed individual processing times per the USDA Choice Soup canning guidelines. It has not been individually lab-tested but was written in accordance with these safe-canning guidelines. You can also skip the pressure canning steps, simmer the soup until done, and serve or freeze right away!
