"I do not know where this recipe came from. A friend gave it to me. This is THE BEST SAUCE I've ever had!! We use to like dining out at Italian places but not now. Not after eating this sauce. I don't think there is any sauce that will taste as good as this. My Husband eats this stuff by the spoonful. It is that good!! (I don't claim it..."

"These wonderful tomatoes can be put on toasted bread with cheese to make bruschetta or you can add them to pasta dishes. They also make yummy garnishes and are good in salads.

"This was the first recipe for dill pickles I ever made, and it's still a favourite. I like the technique it uses of making the pickles right in the canning jars, rather than in a crock.

"A delectable late Summer and Autumn preserve that I concocted with a glut of ripe, juicy red tomatoes and ground chipotles........smoky hot and yet very subtle!

"A wonderful addition to any cook's pantry, this lavender infused vinegar is easy to make and adds a certain j' nés quoi to any savoury dish. Use it in my Lavender Mayonnaise or to flavour a salad dressing – all the lavender taste but not the chewy lavender buds! This vinegar retains not only the flavour of the lavender, but also the..."

"This makes a Big Batch, about 2 gallons of veggies. This recipe is based on several other recipes, trying to put together a single recipe that my mother-in-law, who is taking massive doses of Coumadin and can't have vitamin K, since it interferes with the Coumadin. She really misses her veggies, especially salads, but we are trying to alleviate..."
