There are enough Amish around here that use ice blocks that you can buy the blocks here locally but I'd have to spend money to do it so I look for other ways. I do enjoy drying things, we do that a lot too.Mrs. Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06356736479776982230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2322268008200499912.post-46392965920591501212010-06-09T16:43:16.702-07:002010-06-09T16:43:16.702-07:00That is so interesting!

But I when I have a household I am going to try to preserve all my food without having a freezer. I like the idea of a having an ice house. Do you have an ice house or thought of having one? We know of some people that live without electricity and they have an ice house and it is really neat! <br />~GraceMiss Grace Elizabethhttp://theupperroad.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2322268008200499912.post-84035720039273109552010-06-09T07:26:31.346-07:002010-06-09T07:26:31.346-07:00Grace,

We usually make our own homemade lemonade (there is a recipe here somewhere) but sometimes I just having a craving for the "junk stuff", it has high fructose corn syrup in it so it's hardly healthy. :-) I poured the concentrate into pint jars, put on the band and lid and put it in the canner and processed it for 15 minutes. Since I don't use my freezer anymore this is the way I chose to preserve it. I hope that helps.<br />Mrs. GMrs. Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06356736479776982230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2322268008200499912.post-81828257107326989302010-06-08T19:12:25.245-07:002010-06-08T19:12:25.245-07:00What is lemonade concentrate? and how do you can i...What is lemonade concentrate? and how do you can it?<br />I do not do a lot of canning, I do do a little bit of jam but that is about it for me. <br />I like to persevere food without canning. One thing I am going to try doing this year for the first time is beetkraut (lacto fermented). I will put it in soup and eat it in the winter. A really good book that I have found to be a good one is: "Preserving Food Without Freezing Or Canning"<br />I really like the jars that you use! <br />This is a good article. I think more people need to think about how they are going to persevere their food. I hope alot of people read what you wrote. <br />~GraceMiss Grace Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909290796747189595noreply@blogger.com
