/ck/ - Food & Cooking

OP here, I'm gay if that matters. Thanks.

I made apple butter a few weeks ago and that was the first time I ever canned something. What do you can OP?

In the winter we always have a large pot of stock simmering on our woodburning stove. We can it. Also can tomatoes and jam. Other vegetables we freeze.

>>12919644
beans, tomatos, peaches, salsa, corn, stock, stew, clams, pumpkin.. that's all i can think of right now

No

I canned a fart once. It was still stinky as hell when I opened it probably 3 months later.

fermenting is nice put i prefer shelf stability

>>12919790
Some cans are 1 year old and only 2 are fermented

>>12919798
i don't get it

>>12919803
Using oil or sugar isnt fermentation. Its preservation

>>12919830
don't you worry about botulism?

>>12919839
Its not meat and how do you think they make jam and jelly? A big amount of sugar is pretty bad for bacteria, they get diabetis.

>>12919850
i was referring to the food stored in oil
sugary shit isn't my thing

>>12919855
nope, it turns brown or black when its contaminated + its cooked. I hate it so not eating it

>>12919619
That can not.

>>12919861
botulinum doesn't look or smell like anything

>>12919861
and cooking it only destroys the toxin, not the spore

>>12919839
Botulism is hard to get unless you really don't know what to do

>>12919883
storing food in oil is a good example of not knowing what to do

>>12919885
Good thing I don't do that

>>12919890
good thing you don't read the thread either

>>12919877
>>12919882
Im not speaking about Botulism. BTW, Botulism is a bacteria and they have no spores. Molds have spores. Pic related me

>>12919890
>>12919885
Guys, we have a few 1000s miles between us. Its prety normal in Yuro

>>12919897
Nice spores!

>>12919895
>reading the thread

>>12919897
endospore you fucking pedant

>>12919922
Thats better, just call it endospores. I worked 1year with that shit inside a aircleaned room with spores... Fucking boring and fully autistic working process

>>12919897
>>12919938
>pedantically correcting people when you can barely communicate in english
botulism is an illness, not a bacteria btw

>>12919961
Not sure if troll but im not looking for that full name only to be correct. Thats not /sci/ !
>Clostridium botulinum
>Botulinum toxin

>>12919630
do you cum in your guests food because you're a degenerate

>>12919976
that's better
just call it botulinum
>Clostridium botulinum
>Botulinum toxin

>Botulism, the illness caused by the above

>>12919990
Everybody knows that vatniks are slow. I had that back in university, fucking biology. Going to make a russian dish now, wanna see?

Yeah man, I love trying out all different things, I always have one jar of something new/experimental on the go. I keep some things canned because it makes it cheaper if you can buy and preserve them when they're in season and it cuts a lot of time out when you want to make really tasty sandwiches, pizzas, topped pastries. A few items I always have stocked are:

Dill and wholegrain mustard pickled cucumbers
Roasted red peppers in olive oil.
Pickled roasted beetroots
Light garlic and rosemary brined artichokes

I also keep the zest (no pith) from any citrus i have, and chuck it into a jar of high proof vodka, once you have the citrus from at least, for example, 6 lemons or lime or 4 oranges or 4 grapefruit then leave it for two weeks, strain and add simple sugar syrup to reduce the alcohol down to about 25-30% and desired sweetness then you'll have a delicious homemade limoncello for sipping or grapefruit liquer to get the tequila out and those Paloma's on ice.
