Ball Mason jars

First to recommend

Description

For pickling and preserving all that stuff that we bring home from farmer’s markets. And where DO we find the time to do all this cooking while farming and raising children? Easy, we don’t watch TV, and we suffer all children, interns and houseguests help with food prep.

Curing: Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt

7 people recommended this item

Description

Rim your margaritatini with kosher salt. The little crystals are far more delighful than plain old salt grains. Also, the flavor's richer... not "saltier," per se, just better.
