So those will have to be pressure canned. Though I will leave a few to see how long they keep so I'll know for future years. I'm going to can in pints though. The kids are gone and my husband won't eat them, so pints can get used up. I think quarts would go bad too quickly.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374112132766543914.post-42630899802894155592012-10-08T08:12:37.554-05:002012-10-08T08:12:37.554-05:00Pressure canning is terribly time consuming but it...Pressure canning is terribly time consuming but it sure makes it nice to be able to can items you otherwise could not safely do so. Good thinking to pressure can the sweet potatoes since you were having trouble storing them. I have done that with regular potatoes too and it worked out well.kitsapFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120640838501186514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374112132766543914.post-46023659477229100392012-10-08T08:09:20.707-05:002012-10-08T08:09:20.707-05:00Those sweet potatoes look AWESOME!!
