I’m seriously hooked on this canning thing. I think I found a new hobby. I’m so hooked that we made another 12 jars of pickles tonight (yes…12…putting us at 18 total) and 2 jars of strawberry jam (to test out the recipe). I’m really excited and can’t wait to taste the pickles! I figured it out, and with all the edible supplies for the 18 jars of pickles we made, it comes out to $1.22 per jar. Not bad at all! And I can reuse the jars and stuff, so those costs will be absorbed over the life of the jar! I’m a dork.
- 3 jars of dill seed @ 2.99 each = 8.97
- mustard seed = 2.69
- Gallon of white vinegar = 1.49
- 1/4 container of pickling salt = .50
- 11 lbs. of pickling cucumbers = 9.38
- Total: 22.03 / 18 jars = $1.22 per jar!
