I
am just starting these pages, and adding them to the old recipe book website because
most canning recipes are "old recipes." You know, the kind where you
stood by and watch your mom or grandma do their thing.
I, myself, can remember my mother doing some homecanning even in the 1950's. I particularly remember her making the Green Tomato Relish, and some jelly where she poured the paraffin on top.
