    [quote=Micah68;267703]These are some old family recipes that I thought might help someone out if things go bad in the economy.


    Lemon juice

    If using fresh lemons, squeeze out the juice and strain the pulp out if desired. Heat the juice in a non-aluminum pan and then pour in jars leaving half inch headspace. Water bath fresh lemon juice for 20 minutes, or store bought lemon juice (I buy it in gallons and recan it) for 15 minutes.


    I want to recan store bought lemon juice..... what would be the shelf life of this ??? Thx

    AL- no, borax and washing soda are two totally different things. But both work very well as washing additives.

    a minimum of several years - I think the oldest I have ever used is 5 years? I haven't had any go bad, I just use it up.

    You are welcome. All those laughing at my recipe might just wish they had it someday.....mice and rats will always be plentiful, I fear.

    Contentment is NOT the fufillment of what you want but the realization of how much you already have.
