Yes, I made the crust. Yes, I grew the sauce! No, I didnt make the cheese or cure the pepperoni. It's about balance!

Sunday Funday: when you stay up late preserving fresh, in season produce to have all winter long.

The bouquet from the garden is just a cherry on top.

Crispy Pickled Peppers I follow the NCHFP recipe for Pickleed Jalapeño Rings, but all peppers are interchangeable. Now I have dye-free naturally yellow pickled banana peppers that aren't soggy! to make: 1.Wash peppers well and slice into ¼" thick slices (a mandolin slicer works well). Discard stem end. Mix 1½ cups pickling lime with 1½ gallons water in a stainless steel, glass or food grade plastic container. Avoid inhaling lime dust while mixing the lime-water solution. Soak pepper slices in the lime water, in refrigerator, for 18 hours, stirring occasionally (12 to 24 hours may be used). 2. Drain lime solution from soaked pepper rings. Rinse peppers gently but thoroughly with water. Cover pepper rings with fresh cold water and soak, in refrigerator, 1 hour. Drain water from peppers. 3. Repeat the rinsing, soaking and draining steps two more times. Drain thoroughly at the end. 4. Wash and rinse pint canning jars; keep hot until ready to use. Prepare lids according to manufacturer's directions. 5. Place 1 tablespoon mustard seed and 1½ teaspoons celery seed in the bottom of each clean, hot pint jar. Pack drained pepper rings into the jars, leaving ½-inch headspace. 6. Bring cider vinegar, 1¾ cups water and canning salt to a boil over high heat. Ladle boiling hot brine solution over pepper rings in jars, leaving ½-inch headspace. Make sure pepper rings are covered with brine. 7. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened, clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal canning lids. 8. Process in a boiling water canner according to the recommendations in Table 1. Let cool, undisturbed, 12 to 24 hours and check for seals.
