Episode 6: Canned Heat
Posted in Episodes on Dec 5th, 2011
This episode examines the development of home canning and how Indiana residents have utilized various aesthetic and technological methods both in the past and today. From the innovative “Pie In A Jar” technique to family recipes for sweet pickles, from the history of the Ball Jar in Indiana to drying beans, Hoosiers contribute to a rich landscape of food preservation.
For this episode we traveled to Muncie, home of the Ball Corporation Archives; to Sechler’s Pickles in St. Joe; Lisa’s Pie Shop in Atlanta; as well as visiting with Harold and Jo Ann Jackson in Salem, who preserve foods from their home.
