It’s been an embarrassingly long time since I pulled together a post featuring photos from the Food in Jars Flickr pool, but that doesn’t mean that there’s not an world of goodness in there. Even during these quieter canning months, so many of you have been making lovely preserves. Here are a handful of the prettiest!
Rebecca from the blog Cakewalk made a batch of glowing kumquat habanero marmalade. Aren’t those perfect circles of sliced kumquat gorgeous!
Sweet-tart marmalade made using green lemons by Jennifer. I love her preserving blog. It’s called Putting By and you should add it to your feed reader.
Spiced kumquats! These pretty little guys were made by Sarah who blogs (with her sisters) at Three Clever Sisters. The recipe can be found here.
Though here in Philadelphia, we’re about as far removed from tomato season as you can get, over in Australia, they’re harvesting like crazy. Here’s the preserving work of Flickr user and Aussie rastis100. Aren’t those jars and bottles terrific?
Finally, a few small jars of homemade maple syrup from Susy at Chiot’s Run. The volume of gardening and food preservation work she does is so inspiring!
I always love seeing these posts and looking at the Food in Jars Flickr pool. Often I find inspiration to put something up that I never thought about. Love seeing those Australian jars and all the shapes/sizes of jars people use – so fun!
Nossa, que inveja! Nunca provei xarope de bordo! No Brasil não tem esta planta… aqui nossa temperatura é sempre quente… raramente cai neve… na minha região, nunca caiu neve!
I love Flickr – there’s plenty to feast your eyes on; so many gorgeous photos of deliciously tempting foods.
do you have a link for the purple sauerkraut recipe?
I don’t have a link for it, but you can make purple sauerkraut with any regular sauerkraut recipe. Just substitute red cabbage for the traditional green. Here’s my basic small batch recipe: http://www.seriouseats.com/2011/12/in-a-pickle-small-batch-sauerkraut.html
Ha! I didn’t even recognize my kitchen.
Awesome post! I know I saw this post before, but didn’t realize you’d used my photo! Thanks! Your site is a great resource for all things good. I make sure to pass it on to everyone I know.
