    BERRY CANNING 111xxx no ingredients Berry Canning Procedures Canning, if you have a lot: Because cranberries, like most berries, are highly acid, they don't need much heat to be safely canned (or bottled). You can process them in sterilized jars or bottles for 20 minutes in boiling water (vegetables, meats, other non-acid fruits are not safe to can this way, you should process in a pressure cooker). Water bath (non-pressure) processing can be done in any large, deep pot. Put the jars on a rack in the bottom so they don't touch the bottom. You will need to use the type of glass jar that has a zinc cap and a rubber washer ring. If you can find them anywhere any more. Leave at least 1.5-2 inches empty at the top of the jar, put on the ring and cap, screw it tightly, but then turn it back 1/4 inch, so it's sealed against the water but can vent a little pressure. Water must be at least 1 inch over tops of jars. Bring to boil, and boil for at least 20 minutes. Remove jars. Screw lids down very tightly while still hot, so cooling juice will pull it down to a tight vacuum. This same canning procedure can be followed with high-acid berry jams and jellies, but for low-acid foods (including tomatoes) use a pressure cooker. Right they didn't use to have them, they used to have a lot of spoilage and food poisoning. Traditionally, fruits were preserved by drying.

  • Nama-Namibia-Flyer-Kids
    Have you ever had a Thanksgiving without turkey? What about pumpkin pie or cranberry sauce? Maybe you don’t like those things, so a Thanksgiving with- out turkey and pie doesn’t sound so bad. Did you know that Thanksgiving is an American holiday? That might seem obvious to you, but what if you’re an American living in another country? That would mean you probably would go to school on that day. It could also mean that all those American Thanksgiv- ing foods that you look forward to might be hard to find. Americans living in Africa, who are determined to celebrate Thanksgiving upon their lives, often come together with their fellow Americans living abroad to pull it off. It’s a beautiful thing. Someone will go all over the city to hunt down a turkey. Some- one else has corn syrup and pecans sent in a package for the pie. Someone else will barter at the public market to get green beans for the casserole. It takes a lot of work, but somehow, with everyone doing their part in community, it turns out to be a great day. The Nama of Namibia are an unreached people group that were some of Namibia’s first dwellers that lived and worked on communal land. Centuries of being pushed out of their homelands has left them scattered throughout Namibia, with the largest concentration living in the central part of the country. They are a peo- ple who know how to enjoy “today,” and community remains extremely important. Their culture is preserved through poetry, songs, stories, crafts, art, and the community.
