Last month we told you all of our plans for a Bufflao Rising Can You Can party. Despite a low comment count on the story, it was Facebook “shared” left and right, so we hope you all are looking forward to it as much as we are.
The mere mention of it on my personal FB page had some of my favorite chefs throwing down the gauntlet. See below for sheer entertainment value (identities withheld to prevent any possible embarrassment to you, me and those involved). Needless to say, after this little tête à tête, I think we’ll have a special categories for chefs (or maybe just for feet?).
If you’re still hoping for inspiration, or are nervous about canning for your first time, please remember that Lexington Co-op is hosting some basic canning classes this summer, so take advantage of the opportunity. Also, an acquaintance of mine over at Good Food Jobs recently posted this website, Sweet Preservation, which is a great place to go for cool recipes and other fun stuff. And, last but not least, when I was in the Co-op over the weekend I noticed they had a few cool canning books for sale (see image above).
Are you planning to join us? Pre-registration will go up next month so we can book a space large enough to hold all of you. We are really excited about all of the feedback we’ve gotten on this event and are looking forward to meeting all of our fellow canners!
So tell us, what can you can?
