Instructions

  1. 1 Inspect 4 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until ready to use. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water. Alternatively, sterilize jars in the dishwasher.
  2. 2 Combine peppercorns, celery seeds, mustard seeds, and allspice berries in a small bowl; divide evenly among the prepared canning jars.
  3. 3 Pack onions vertically into jars, alternating tips-up and tips-down to snugly fit.
  4. 4 Bring water, vinegar, and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Pour hot liquid into jars over onions, leaving ½-inch headspace at the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after filling to remove air bubbles. Wipe the rims of jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw-on rings.
  5. 5 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 15 minutes.
  6. 6 Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 6 to 12 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down.
  7. 7 Store in a cool, dark place, undisturbed, for at least 4 weeks before serving.

  2. 2 Transfer sausage mixture onto a large piece of parchment paper. Use damp hands to shape into a 4-inch-thick log. Roll up in the parchment paper, compressing it as much as possible. Twist ends tightly to seal. Place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 24 hours.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
  4. 4 Cut ends off the parchment paper and unwrap sausage. Mix liquid smoke with water and generously brush over sausage. Roll sausage back up in the paper, then again in aluminum foil, sealing it tightly and twisting the ends in opposite directions.
  5. 5 Line a baking sheet with a wire rack and place sealed sausage on top. Poke 5 or 6 holes across bottom for excess moisture to drip out.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until a probe or instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 150 degrees F (66 degrees C) and no higher, about 1 1/2 hours.
  7. 7 Let sausage cool in the pan until room temperature, at least 30 minutes. Give ends a tighter twist, then refrigerate at least 8 hours, or overnight.

  2. 2 Combine strawberries, onion, vinegar, sugar, currants, mustard seeds, salt, red pepper, and star anise in a wide, nonreactive 4-quart pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once it bubbles, reduce heat to medium; simmer gently, stirring often, until mixture is thickened and a spoon drug through leaves a trail that doesn't fill in immediately, about 1 hour. Toward the end of the cooking, make sure to stir every minute or so to prevent scorching. Remove from heat.
  3. 3 Working with one jar at a time, remove empty jars from canning pot. Using a wide-mouth funnel, carefully ladle jam into jars, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace. Use a clean wooden chopstick to work air bubbles out of jars. Check headspace again and add more chutney if necessary to bring to 1/2 inch from the top.
