Thanks Nancy, Mike, Pearl and Jim
Yes there were no air pockets as I added it to the jars this only happened after the canning process.
So my fears have been abated and I won't eye that jar with suspicion in the cupboard anymore.
Wild garlic soup recipes
1 carrot
1 stick of celery
1 onion (white)
Massive bunch of wild garlic
Potatoes (just enough to thicken the soup slightly)
Salt and pepper
Vegetable stock
I don't know if you guys have wild garlic in north america, but the bottom of my garden is full of it right now. It likes to grow by rivers or damp shady spots and has a short growing season, 1 month or so.
It's very common here in the southeast of england and the west country and I'm not sure if it is up north.
It's just about to come into flower now and it is at it's best when young.
Thanks
Dan
