Your first job is to use tongs like used for many hot items coming out of a pot. Pickup the burrs by the lip and tap them against the side of the bucket while in boiling water. This will release the nuts after a few taps and then you can pickup the nuts with the tongs. You should be aware of tiny worms that may have enter through tiny worm holes. The mature worm will have chewed its way out of the nut.Now with that said, you need to removed the shell. This can be a tricky procedure since the chestnut must be allowed to vent or it will expand and explode. If you first cut them in half it will prevent an explosion and will permit the nuts to jump free of their shell. I would throw away any wormy looking nuts in this process. These nuts are still a problem because cutting them in half is not totally accurate and the knife can slip off the nut. I would either take an old cutting board or buy a small new one and slit a groove about six to eight inches up the board staying close to the middle of the board. It is possible to cut a number of nuts at one time in less than then the time in attempting to cut one shell at time. Permalink -- click for full blog post "How do I harvest chestnuts?"

Permalink -- click for full blog post "Dandelion Benefits and uses" Jul 31, 2009, Recipe For Canning Banana PeppersA gardener had a question about canning banana peppers since this gardener had a very abundant crop. Here is a canning method that can be followed: The peppers should be canned whole so You can slice them later if you want. If you so desire, you can slice them in rounds about 1" wide and throw out the stem tops. As for canning them, there are lots of ways to do it. This seems to be an excellent method for you... Take the jars you will be using (usually pint jars or quart jars if you have a lot) and wash them along with the rinds and lids in hot soapy water. On the stove, put a pot of water on to heat up for your lids. Also heat up enough vinegar for the amount of peppers you are canning. Just use plain vinegar-no seasonings at all. Set your jars up and fill them with your peppers (leave about 1/2 to the top for filling purposes). Turn off your water for the lids and rings (but leave it on the stove to stay hot) and put your (unused!!!) lids in them. The reason you do this is to heat up the thin layer of adhesive on the bottom of the lids. DO NOT BOIL the lid though! Next fill the jars with the hot vinegar, place a heated lid on top and secure tightly with a jar ring. These will be very hot, so be careful! Set the jar aside and let them cool. You'll hear each one "pop" while it cools and that means it has sealed good.
