Here and on my Facebook posts, I stress organic, home canned, homemade, in the descriptions. Why? The reasons are very simple, what I use will give different result than what you use. So,
Q. Can I use _____ fill in the blank to make this recipe.
A. If it is similar likely but I can't guarantee that. I do know the taste will differ.
Q. Can I use refined white sugar instead of organic cane sugar.
A. Yes but you won't get the same flavour profiles. Refined sugar adds sweetness, organic cane sugar adds flavour and sweetness.
Q. Do I have to follow USDA canning rules?
A. No, your kitchen your rules. I am Canadian, so USDA has no bearing here nor does any other government agency within your home. I highly recommend following safe canning guidelines but even I am septal of some of those.
Q. Why organic?
A. There are certain chemicals I do not want in my foods especially dried foods where the concentration increases. Organic certification also ensures non-GMO.
Q. Why homemade?
A. When you make something from scratch, you know exactly what is in it.
