Recipes
for Mixes
Although the method of stocking the root cellar is virtually a thing of the past,except for those very fortunate individuals who have home grown vegetables,we rely on grocery stores for all our needs.However,we have lost some quality in the mass production and pay dearly in some instances for convenience foods.Some of the recipes are for products that taste like the more expensive ones usually bought at the grocery.
Many
years ago when I camped out a lot,making up mixes to use in camp was a
matter of routine.It was a lot easier having cornbread already mixed
and
placed in little bags.(This was before the packets now found easily.)I
still love making as many home mixes as possible.These are just a few
found
in my cookbooks and over the Internet.

Canning Butter | Canning Peanut Butter |
2 qt Skinned, shelled, roasted-Spanish Peanuts
2 tb Salt
4 qt Skinned, shelled, roasted-Virginia Peanuts
If you use shelled, salted nuts, omit the salt in the recipe. Makes
about 6 pints. In addition to the basic equipment for boiling water
bath canning, you'll need a food grinder or chopper or you can use a
blender or food processor.
1. Organize and prepare equipment and work area.
2. Grind nuts in grinder, chopper, blender, or food processor, Add
the salt and grind again until smooth and creamy.
3. Pack into hot jars to within 1 inch of top, trying to pack so that
no air bubbles remain. Remember to use a non metal tool for packing.
4. Wipe tops and threads of each jar with a damp clean cloth.
5. Put on lids and screw bands as manufacturer directs.
6. Process in a boiling water bath, 1 hour for both 1/2 pints and
pints. Check water bath about every 10 to 15 minutes and add
additional boiling water, if necessary, to keep jars covered with 1
to 2 inches of water.
7. Follow basic steps for boiling water bath canning, 10 through 18.

Cut 2 lb. into pieces and put into a pan and melt it slowly until it bubbles and then simmer for 5 minutes
Pour
into sterile jars that are in the oven and have heated to 250 degrees
for
20 minutes, take 1 jar out at a time and fill within 1 inch of the top,
put
on lids and rings and set a side. Do all the butter this way.
Now
that
you have it all in jars and lidded, set a side until it pops and
is
cooled.
Place in fridge so it will harden and then turn up side dow a few
times
this will keep it from separating. Shake well a time or 2 when
hardened
and store on shelf. Estimated shelf life, 3 years.
