This is definitely one of my favorite canning recipes. It has an excellent flavor and maintains it's freshness for several months. The picture of this recipe was from product canned 4 years ago. (It got lost in the boxes of other canned foods). It is the last we have. Will need to make a new batch this year. Goes well with picnics, light lunches, hot dogs, hamburgers, ect.
