What's a Hen Party?
by Lisa Fowler on 10/13/10
We are launching a series of canning workshops in October and November introducing everyone to cannery canning....these workshops are aptly named "Hen Parties". Don't laugh....what is the first question that comes out of man's mouth when he sees more than two women in a kitchen; "what are you ladies cackling about"? Am I right?
The first Hen Party is scheduled for next Tuesday evening at 6:00 PM. The participant fee is $20.00 per person and includes hands-on instruction on canning basics, snacks and 8 jars of finished product. What are we cooking? Apples! Two recipes, canned apples in light syrup and apple pie filling. There are a few remaining spots open if anyone else likes to join us.
We have two Hen Parties scheduled in November. The first will be on Tuesday, November 06 and sure to be a Fall favorite, Pumpkin Canning. The second is on Tuesday, November 13 and will be just in time for the holidays for Cranberry Sauce Canning. Do you know how many recipes are out there on cranberries? These will great for the holiday meal and gift giving.
Future Hen Parties will include soups, pickling and jams.....to name a few. We look forward to seeing you at one soon.
