Georgia-grown cuisine flying to new heights, shores on Delta menu

By Dallas Duncan
Georgia-grown cuisine is now traveling business elite on the menu, at least.
Thanks to a recent collaboration between Delta Air Lines and Georgia Grown Executive Chef Linton Hopkins, Georgia ingredients from as far north as Young Harris all the way to Bluffton and Vidalia are making their way across the pond.
"When you fly out of Atlanta, you should have a taste of Atlanta flying with you. I want to tell a story of where you're flying out of, where you're coming from. I think that's a fun story to tell for the traveler," said Hopkins, who owns Atlanta's Holeman & Finch Public House and Restaurant Eugene.
After winning the 2013 Delta Cabin Pressure Cook-Off, Hopkins was selected to assist with Delta's menu development in certain markets, said Peter Wilander, the airline's managing director of onboard services. The Southeasterncentric menu is featured in the business elite cabin seating on flights from Atlanta to London-Heathrow, Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Paris.
"We want food that is contemporary, that is recognizable, that is what we would call `durable.' We want menus that would survive the transition from a restaurant-type environment into a commercial-type environment and onto an aircraft," Wilander said. "[Hopkins] is an extraordinarily talented chef. He was also intrigued as to how he could take sort of farm-to-table restaurant concepts and apply them ... to onboard a commercial aircraft."

Hopkins' Southern-flair recipes must be easily translatable into being mass produced, while still retaining restaurant quality, Wilander said. That's where the cooking techniques come in Hopkins included simple, braised and slow-cooked dishes that can get better while sitting.
After the menu items are fully prepped in the Delta flight kitchen and other such facilities in the metro area, they are loaded onto carts, brought to the aircrafts and served to patrons.
The menu was implemented Feb. 1. Its dishes include pickled Georgia shrimp and vegetable salad, cream of Vidalia Onion soup and warm sticky toffee cake, and all feature ingredients from Georgia and its surrounding states. So far, the slow cooked beef brisket and White Oak Pastures chicken pot pie are the frontrunners in customer popularity, Wilander said.
"Not only had [our chefs] designed great food that we can execute on the aircraft, but they really cause us to raise the bar on our attention to detail and execution. It's improved our customer ratings and customer satisfaction, and that's what all this is about for us," Wilander said.
Being part of Hopkins' Delta menu was "a nice cherry on top" for the Thomasville, Ga.-based Sweet Grass Dairy, said Gabe Goodlett, director of sales.
The featured Sweet Grass Dairy product is its signature greenhill cheese, Goodlett said, which is a "soft, double-ripened cow's milk cheese."
"It's just really rich, just showcases the milk that our Jer-

Georgians reminded to limit movement of firewood

Courtesy Georgia Department of Agriculture press office
As the temperatures continue to drop, Georgians are using increasing amounts of firewood in fireplaces, wooden heaters and campfires. The Department would like to remind consumers to limit the movement of firewood due to potential pest and disease infestation.
Firewood can transport many invasive pests, including the emerald ash borer, Sirex woodwasp, Asian long-horned beetleand gypsy moth as well as diseases such as beech bark disease, sudden oak death and oak wilt. Infested trees can be cut, split into firewood and sent to other parts of Georgia and the US, thereby expanding the range of these pests.

Campers, hunters and others also move firewood, often hundreds of miles, before their stash is burned. Given time and right temperatures, these insect pests can leave the firewood and infest new areas before the wood is burned in a campfire.
Due to this pest movement, several states passed regulations and quarantines on firewood. In order to prevent and control the movement of these invasive pests, it is important to follow a few simple rules when handling firewood:
u Wait to buy firewood when you reach your destination. u Use firewood from the area where you plan to burn it. u Do not leave any unused firewood behind. For more information on the pest and firewood movement, please contact Mike Evans in the Plant Protection Division at 404586-1140.

HOW TO GET YOUR GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE
Program promotes agriculture, farms, agribusinesses

Mail to: Published by the Ga. Department of Agriculture Gary W. Black, Commissioner

By Dallas Duncan
The Farmers and Consumers Market Bulletin reserves this space in every issue to feature a member of the Georgia Grown program who joined at the gold level or higher. This profile is an added benefit to these program members, as it shares their agriculture story with tens of thousands of Market Bulletin readers.
In addition to the Georgia Grown profile, members who join at the gold, platinum, diamond or founder's circle levels receive benefits including discounts on Georgia Grown merchandise, customizable Georgia Grown marketing materials, features in the Georgia Grown newsletter and magazine, sponsorship benefits and more. All Georgia Grown members have the ability to use the Georgia Grown logo on their product packaging, promoting their locally

grown produce and agriculture-related goods. "Our revamped Georgia Grown logo was designed to identify
products grown or produced in Georgia. We hope consumers become familiar with the logo and the quality it represents," said Matthew Kulinski, deputy director of marketing for the Department. "Consumers look to purchase locally grown products and are willing to pay more for agricultural items produced by their community." Georgia Grown members run the gamut, from small farms all the way to large agribusinesses. Since the revitalized program began in 2012, the Department received more than 250 paying members, 700 website listings and a number of corporate partnerships. To learn more about the Georgia Grown program, how to get involved or purchase Georgia Grown merchandise, visit www. georgiagrown.com.

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN

GUEST COLUMN: Deadline for UGA agriculture

scholarships quickly approaching

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2014
agriCULTURE

There are great things

happening at the University of

Georgia College of Agri-

cultural and Environmental

Sciences. Enrollment is near

record-high, graduates are

getting top jobs and they

are making a difference in

Georgia's No. 1 industry,

agriculture. We measure our

graduates' success to deter-

mine if we are providing them

WEST

the tools they need in the

working world. A number of

metrics indicate we are doing just that.

Among UGA's 17 schools and colleges, CAES

graduates rank second in placement (jobs, graduate or

professional school) and second in starting salaries. UGA

is 18th among the top 50 public institutions nationwide

and among Kiplinger's top 100 public institutions for

value -- cost to get the degree compared with earnings

after graduation -- UGA ranks 10th nationwide and first

within Georgia. Couple this with the fact that UGA CAES

is the No. 4 agricultural research college in the nation and

one can see why our students are doing so well.

Everyone knows that gaining admission to the Univer-

sity of Georgia is very competitive. But did you know that

if you don't enter as a freshman, there is a great oppor-

tunity to gain admission to UGA as a transfer student?

By meeting transfer requirements one can transfer in as a

sophomore, or more commonly as a junior. Transfer stu-

dents complete core coursework at other institutions, but

get their major course of study from UGA, from which they graduate.
Did you know that students can transfer to the UGATifton campus or UGA-Griffin campus and earn UGA degrees? Students transferring to our extended campuses are eligible for UGA CAES transfer scholarships, lowering the cost of going to school. In addition to the CAES transfer scholarships, there are funds specifically for students entering the UGA-Tifton academic programs.
The March 1 deadline for CAES scholarship applications is approaching rapidly. However, since the transfer application deadline is April 1, there are also Tifton campus-specific scholarships students can apply for through September, for those who transfer later than the regular scholarship application deadline.
At UGA-Tifton, students study with world-class scientists who are developing the latest agricultural technology. Students accompany scientists into their field laboratories and learn face-to-face the latest in agricultural innovation. These hands-on learning experiences give students the knowledge, experience and confidence to enter the workforce with the tools to be excellent employees.
There are outstanding opportunities on our campuses in Athens, Tifton or Griffin. If you are interested in agriculture give us a call at UGA-Tifton, where "You Can Stay Close, and Go Farther."
Joe West is the assistant dean of the UGA-Tifton campus, one of three campuses in the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. A former dairy scientist, he now provides leadership at UGA-Tifton and is a part of the administrative team led by UGA CAES Dean Scott Angle.

GUEST COLUMN: Producers invited to Georgia Organics Conference this weekend

This isn't hyperbole --

Southeastern farmers are

protecting the planet.

Stay with me here.

Environmental steward-

ship is a goal for any grower:

treat the land well, and it will

provide. By its very nature,

agriculture affects the envi-

ronment. That effect can take

a toll and even make farming

HATFIELD

more difficult. Growing has always been

hard work, but farmers in

Georgia and around the country face new challenges:

ever-worsening soil erosion, ever-weirder weather and

declining pollinator populations.

Luckily, innovations in sustainable agriculture

mitigate even reverse myriad environmental, health

and agricultural production problems. More than 800

growers, gardeners and consumers will be exploring

these techniques at the 17th Annual Georgia Organics

Conference, "Green Acres: Saving the Planet One Bite at

a Time," Feb. 21 through 22 in Jekyll Island, Ga.

Take crop rotation, a time-tested technique dating

back to 6,000 B.C. that boosts soil health by balancing

nitrogen and phosphorous. It also mitigates pest problems

and soil-borne diseases.

Add cover cropping -- which, among other things, re-

duces soil erosion, lessens water runoff and helps control

pigweed -- and you have a one-two punch against many

of the problems that require expensive inputs and create

declining yields and declining water quality.

The Georgia Organics Conference will have re-

nowned experts from the University of Georgia, Auburn

University and the University of Florida on hand to talk

about innovations they've developed, as well as longtime sustainable growers who can speak from a wealth of experience.
In all, we're offering 32 educational sessions and 11 in-depth workshops, which will cover everything from crop planning to using high tunnels to grow tropical niche crops.
One workshop will explore UF research on how grafting to resistant rootstocks manages nematodes in tomatoes and watermelons. Another session will cover Auburn silvopasture research, which combines agroforestry with forage and livestock production. A team of UGA researchers has been studying cash crop production in the cool season using summer cover crops as an alternative to fight relentless weeds and pests, and these researchers will present their findings at another session. Experts will also discuss new federal agricultural policies and the changes climate change may inflict upon the South.
Farmers have been learning from each other for generations, and we're humbled to gather so many of our state's growers to continue this valuable tradition. Add in regional and national experts, and you have an incredible weekend of learning and fellowship with other farmers.
Agriculture is Georgia's No. 1 industry, and our state's growers are on the frontlines of increasingly challenging farming conditions. But they're also part of the solution to these problems.
Brooke Hatfield is the communications coordinator for Georgia Organics, a statewide nonprofit that connects organic food from Georgia farms to Georgia families. Her dad, a pine tree farmer and longtime Market Bulletin subscriber, is going to be really proud to see this byline. For more information, visit conference.georgiaorganics.org. Walk-up registrations will be accepted, and residents of Camden, Glynn and McIntosh counties can attend at the reduced early bird rate.

Letter from the editor
History tends to repeat itself. I've noticed this in fashion trends: the muted florals of 1994 have come back to haunt the runways; retro cat-eyes and spider lashes are making waves in the cosmetics world; "The Great Gatsby" inspired all sorts of dapper looks at costume parties. History also repeats itself in the food world. I didn't grow up canning, or pickling, or even eating pickles. I doubt many of my friends did, either. I mean, I'm sure I'm kind of an oddball for not eating pickles until about six months ago, but I think you get my drift. In addition to being several generations removed from the farm, most Americans are probably at least one or two generations away from being otherwise self-sufficient on preparing our own food. We might grow some cucumbers in our little backyard or patio gardens, maybe stake up a tomato vine. And then, however many days later, suddenly we're harvesting two handfuls of fresh produce a week and holy smokes, what to do with it all! Most of us probably will cook a few meals with it, get tired of only eating tomatoes and cucumbers and then start handing the remainder of our harvest to friends, family and neighbors. But lo! The Ghost of Food Heritage Past is back in 2014, and she's got a lot to teach us. Canning and pickling those fresh vegetables (and fruits!) isn't just something reserved for the stay-at-home housewife, as some would have us believe. Canning, pickling, making our own jams ... it's hip! It's in! It's the cool thing to do! Anyone can do it! And if you think you can't, there are Extension agents, restaurants and other locations that occasionally host classes. Or, you can turn to page 12 and get some pickling tips from Decatur's own Doux South! Creating your own food is not only hip, it's become a much-appreciated art form. It's a whole lot more than simmering some blackberries until they congeal into a jelly it's finding the right balance of flavors, the right consistency to get across a food story. Restaurants are making their own artisan butters and jams in-house, showcasing local ingredients and modernizing these food crafts so they don't become lost arts. It is a really nifty part of the local food movement, in my opinion. And, thanks to modern food technology, it's also a lot simpler than when our great-grandmothers and grandmothers were creating processed food back in the day. For example, I recently came across a recipe in our archives for apple butter where the first step was, and I quote, "Prepare a fire." I give many kudos to whoever reads this column and is inspired to make some apple butter old-school style over a fire. It's probably a good skill to have if you get stuck without power in one of these winter storms we seem to keep having. But whether it's being made over a fire or with boiling water on the stove creating our own canned food, pickles, jams, etc. is a pretty good step for agriculture, I think. It's kind of like the "give a mouse a cookie" story. When you give someone a cucumber, they will want to pickle it. When you give someone pickling lessons, then they want to preserve ALL their vegetables. When they preserve all their vegetables, then they have too many, so they sell some, starting a small food business. When they have a small food business, they want to start growing their own ingredients (think the story about King of Pops from the Jan. 22 issue!), and when they do that, boom people are back on the farm, continuing to increase Georgia's agriculture production and impact on the economy. Though I don't see myself starting my own food business anytime soon, I do look forward to bringing some of these retro food trends into my kitchen this year. Aspics and Jell-O salads, however ... I'm thinkin' those should probably stay in the back of the pantry, along with those 1994 floral print denim shorts. Otherwise I'm going to have to start referring to food trends as haunting literally.

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN

ARTY'S GARDEN:

Help the birds this spring

AMERICAN robins build nests of mud, grass and other plant materials from gardens.

Poet Geoffrey Chaucer supposedly started the link between romance and St. Valentine's Day by claiming it was the day birds chose their mates. While I am not an ornithologist (and neither was Chaucer), I am a romantic and bird lover. Even if Valentine's Day is not exactly when they begin courting, I know most birds will be nesting soon. That is why I leave plenty of nesting material in the garden when I begin the spring cleanup in February and March.
As I remove dead stems of perennials, I cut and break them into pieces about three to six inches long that are suitable for building nests. I scatter these around the garden and stick them into the chain link fence or into the crotches of trees and shrubs as a source of nest construction materials. Tufts of dead grass and daylily leaves get the same treatment.
Too many gardeners strive for tidiness that borders on sterility. Don't leave your garden so clean that it becomes barren for birds. It is satisfying to watch a bird come into the garden and leave with twigs or dead leaves in its beak. It is even more satisfying to find a nest consisting of materials you have provided.
Some materials are preferred more than others. The wiry fronds of maidenhair fern are especially prized for their strength and flexibility. Thin, gray stems of anisacanthus find their way into numerous bird nests. Plants that provide fibers are also sought out. It is fun to watch a Carolina

wren or a mockingbird pulling fibers off the dead stems of erythrina or stalks of Turk's cap malvaviscus. The stems of anise-scented salvia are chosen frequently, but this may be due to their abundance in my garden. Moss, mud, spider webs, cattail fluff and pine needles are a few other natural nest-building materials birds use.
You can also leave brushings of your dog or cat's fur or some of your own hair in the garden. Don't leave any strands longer than three inches, as adult birds or nestlings can become entangled in them. Do not leave dryer lint or pieces of fabric as these may hold too much moisture, fall apart or present other problems.
You may want to plant trees, vines and shrubs that make good nesting sites. Sasanqua, climbing roses, abelia, Kurume azalea, flowering dogwood, yaupon, American holly and Eastern red cedar are a sampling of bird favorites because of their branching patterns and the cover they provide.
Consider putting in a nest box (a.k.a. birdhouse) to encourage birds. Do not choose a decorative or brightly colored one. Those are meant to appeal more to you than to birds. Many garden centers have a selection of nest boxes designed for specific species of birds.
Arty Schronce is the Department's resident gardening expert. He's also a lifelong birdwatcher and a horticulture graduate of North Carolina State University who encourages everyone to discover the pleasures of nature and gardening.

MENU: Dishes highlight
Southeastern food heritage
From Page 1
sey cows are producing," he said. "That's our cream-of-the-crop product; that's what put us on the map."
The cheese was specially requested by Hopkins for the menu. It's paired with two additional cheeses as part of the "Sweet Delights" section of offerings. Though Sweet Grass products have been featured on menus across the US, this is the farm's first time to make an international appearance, Goodlett said.
"We've got folks that are international travelers that are going to be sampling a lot of what our hard work is," he said. "It's really one of the most humbling things that we've ever been a part of, menu-wise, and it almost leaves you speechless."
One of Hopkins' missions in designing recipes was to spotlight Georgia produce. "It's a celebration of Georgia's vegetables, tying in the local produce and seasonal change of produce," Hopkins said. "We're all fresh tomatoes in summertime and Vidalia Onions in the spring and root vegetables and kale in the winter." And then, his personal favorite dish. "After the vegetables, I thought about chicken pot pie. Georgia has great chicken and great vegetables that go into chicken pot pie, and I have the bakery to make the puff pastry," he said. "I think that's going to be the star dish. ... Except for the celery and the salt and pepper, everything is from Georgia. That's 99.5 percent that's full Georgia products." He said his goal is for this pot pie to fly on every plane out of Atlanta, and for the menu to serve as a reminder of Southern food heritage. "Chefs didn't create food. Our job is to protect it and keep it going and nudge people along. When you get into the food business, you get into the human memory business and why we gather together as humans and I think that's really important," Hopkins said. "This is about crafting a menu around good food, the way I cook and eat, for this specific environment. ... I want to turn people's heads on this idea of, `Oh, it's airplane food.' That doesn't mean it should be bad. You should have good food everywhere, no matter where you are."

FEATURE RECIPE:
Chocolate Cobbler

Editor's Note: Lydia Black of Commerce, Ga., wife of Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black, submitted this family favorite! The recipe makes what some might call a "floating brownie." It is best enjoyed with vanilla ice cream. Black recommends using butter and pure vanilla when baking it. Yields 12 to 15 servings.

Ingredients: For the cobbler 1.5 cups self-rising flour 1.5 cups sugar 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 1 tablespoon vanilla flavoring 1.5 cups milk 1 stick (half-cup) butter

For the topping 1.5 cups sugar cup cocoa powder 2 cups boiling water

Instructions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Melt butter in a 9x12-inch pan. 3. Combine (from cobbler ingredients) flour, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla flavoring and milk. Pour
evenly over melted butter, but do not mix. 4. Combine remaining sugar and cocoa powder in a small bowl for the topping. Sprinkle mixture
evenly over the cobbler mixture. Do not stir. 5. Pour boiling water over the try topping. Again, do not stir. 6. Bake for 30 minutes. Be careful not to overcook, as the cobbler will be dry.

Ms. Lydia might get us for telling, but your Market Bulletin staff thought you should know that she was the Outstanding Graduate of the UGA College of Family and Consumer Sciences in 1980. She holds a master's degree in consumer economics and is a former county Extension home economist and family and consumer sciences teacher.
All recipes have been tested for accuracy by Georgia Department of Agriculture home economists unless otherwise noted.

VISIT WITH A VET:
New tool for monitoring blood calcium concentrations in dairy cattle
Visit with a Georgia veterinarian in this monthly feature. This edition comes from Dr. John K. Bernard, animal and dairy science professor on the UGA-Tifton campus.
Hypocalcemia, known as milk fever, is a condition of low blood calcium concentration that negatively affects performance and health in dairy cattle. Cows with clinical milk fever are more likely to have other diseases including retained placenta, mastitis, ketosis and left displaced abomasum, or LDA. Though the incidence of milk fever has declined to approximately five percent with improved close-up dry cow nutrition, it is estimated that 50 percent of all dairy cows in the US experience subclinical hypocalcemia. Cows with subclinical hypocalcemia have lower milk yield, decreased reproductive performance and increased odds of ketosis and LDA.
Blood sample analysis is the traditional way of evaluating a dairy cow's calcium status. The sample is analyzed for total calcium concentrations. This is calcium that meets three specifications: bound to plasma protein; in an ionic form associated with low molecular weight compounds; and free ions. Metabolic functions such as muscle contraction, blood clotting and bone formation are supported by the free ion form of calcium.
Ionized calcium measures these free calcium ions, which are readily available for the aforementioned metabolic functions. This provides a better estimate of true calcium status. The proportion of total calcium that is ionized is not constant, and changes with lactation stages. Occasionally, some calcium concentrations indicate the cow is not ill, but looking at ionized calcium concentrations confirm she is in a state of clinical hypocalcemia.
Ionized calcium concentrations of less than one millimol per liter are considered indicators of subclinical milk fever. Both ionized calcium and magnesium levels can be used to evaluate nutrition in close-up dry and transition cow nutrition, as well as diagnose milk fever and grass tetany that occur around parturition or early lactation.
Recently, an electrode-based method was developed for rapid measurement of ionized calcium. This method is both economical and available to researchers and producers, and a unit is located at the University of Georgia Veterinary Diagnostic and Investigational Laboratory in Tifton, Ga.
Samples of ionized calcium and magnesium should be collected in a green top (Lithium Heparin) with a separator gel Vacutainer tube, or a "tiger-top" gel-separator tube. The sample should be allowed to clot, centrifuged to separate the plasma or serum from the blood clot and refrigerated immediately. The frozen sample should be packaged with an ice pack and shipped for overnight delivery to the laboratory for analysis. The pH of the sample is measured and used to calculate the final result.
Do not remove the cap from the collection tube. Exposing samples to air or long storage can change blood pH, so it is important to collect and transmit and process samples quickly in a laboratory to obtain valid results.
For questions about submitting ionized calcium and magnesium samples, contact Anita Merrill at 229-386-3340.

Pickling solves problems of preserving fresh

produce, Southern food trends

By Dallas Duncan
It's common for people to find themselves "in a pickle." But when that pickle includes too many fresh vegetables than they know what to do with, pickling can come in handy.
It can also come in handy when the pickle is having not too many vegetables, but too many containers, as was the case with Nick Melvin.
"My wife and I got married about two years ago and had an excess of Mason jars after our wedding, because nobody took home their gifts they were supposed to," said Melvin, the self-described "pickle guy" for Decatur, Ga.-based Doux South.
His wife wanted to learn how to pickle, and shortly thereafter Melvin joined with his father-in-law to create Doux South, which specializes in creating pickles that capture Southern fare and food heritage. The company name comes from Melvin's hometown in Louisiana being due South of Chicago, where his father-in-law lives.
"We've paired with five or six farmers all over the Southeast. The majority are in Georgia, a couple guys in South Carolina and one or two guys in Florida," Melvin said.
The most popular varieties include Angry Cukes, which are spicy dill pickled cucumbers, and their Italian-inspired tomatoes pickled with red wine, basil and garlic.
For Angie Tillman, owner of Phickles, a pickle company from

Athens, Ga., pickling turned from Christmas gifts to a full-time job after celebrity chef Hugh Acheson told her to put a label on her jars. Phickles' varieties include pickled beans, carrots and jalapenos, with plans to expand to sauces, relishes and even pickled fruits.
"It's been really fun because during the year, the different seasons produce different things, and I get to play around," Tillman said. "When in season, everything comes from around here."
Melvin said the inspiration for pickle flavors comes from the main ingredients themselves.
"We want to showcase the beautiful flavor of a turnip or the sweetness of a tomato or the earthiness of black-eyed peas," he said. "You can pickle anything, you just have to be smart about it."
That means thinking hard about pre-cooking ingredients before brining them such as the black-eyed peas, which can be undercooked rocks or overcooked mush, not ideal for the pickled salad Doux South makes and playing with seasonings and vinegars to find the ideal flavor combinations.
Both Tillman and Melvin advise pickle novices to check out their local farmers markets to see what produce is in abundance.
"Buy in season. Pickling is only as good as the product going into it," Melvin said. "We don't cook the vegetables ... I don't like putting any more heat in the vegetables than I have to. For me, by putting them there raw and then adding hot brine and processing, we've introduced the minimal amount of heat to the vegetables, therefore really keeping the integrity of the vegetable itself."

HOW TO: Pickle your own fresh produce at home

Editor's Note: These pickling tips and instructions come from Doux South and UGA Cooperative Extension.
1. Choose a jar. Make sure there is enough room for the product being pickled and space for the brine to flow around the produce.

4. Create the pickle brine. Heat the brine a combination of spices, salts and vinegar in a stainless steel, aluminum or glass saucepan. Add produce and other aromatics to the jar and pour heated brine on top, leaving a halfinch headspace. Cap the jars.

2. Select produce and spices for the brine. UGA Extension recommends pickling produce within 24 hours after picking. Cucumbers should be unwaxed pickling varieties. It is recommended to use a specially formulated pickling salt, cider or white vinegar, white sugar, soft water and whole (not powdered) spices. Firming agents such as food-grade lime may be added for crisp pickles, if desired.
3. Sanitize empty jars and produce. Heat a hot water bath to 110 degrees and deposit the empty jars, uncapped, in for 12 minutes. Tilt the jars sideways to ensure they fill with water. Produce should be thoroughly cleaned and allowed to drain. Remove stems and leaves, and slice if desired.

5. "Cook" the pickles. Heat the water bath back to 110 degrees and process the capped jars for about 10 minutes. Ensure there is enough water to cover the jars by 1.5 inches. When the lid locks, meaning the button at the top is flat, the vacuum is complete and the product is food safe.
6. Flip the jars upside down after they're done processing. This accentuates the vacuum seal. Once cooled, labels can be added, if desired, and then pickles are ready for transportation to local farmers markets and the next Georgia Grown Farmer Showcase!
