Links: Meyer Lemons, Pour Spouts, and Winners

My yearly order of Meyer lemons arrived from the Lemon Ladies on Saturday and I can’t wait to dig in and preserve them in a bunch of different ways (this post details some of my favorite ways to transform them). I also have some good pieces coming up this week, including a tutorial on how to pressure can dried beans, a plan for all those questions you guys asked me in this post, a new Preserves in Action, and a peek inside one of my current favorite cookbooks. Now, links!

Want to have a jar with a pour spout? The Kitchn shows you how to make one.
A trick for quick jar labeling.
Cinnamon apple snack cake. I want anything with the words snack cake in the name.
I’ve got half a dozen rapidly ripening pears on my counter. This loaf looks ideal!
Want a change from a tomato-based salsa? How about this dried chile version.
Purple mustard!
I adore quiche. This mushroom leek goat cheese version seems pretty darn divine.
Parsnip cake with candied kumquats. Could anything be more perfectly seasonal?
