I just watched Heather of The Kneady Homesteader and her video on what she loves and doesn't love to can. She said you are fantastic so I headed over here and just subscribed. I look forward to watching your videos!
Heather is the one that pushed me on to CZcams! Here I am! I love her and been watching her forever!
Exactly what I would have wrote, and you did!
Same here! 🌻
Ditto!
Yep, me too! New subbie here ❣️ Thanks Kneady ❣️
Ok, now I am super excited for your sweet and sour sauce video!!!! 😆👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Fantastic video, Sis and thanks again for including me. ♥️
I love that Sweet n Sour sauce! My heart is full and glad you could be apart of this wonderful collaboration!
I came over from That 1870's Homestead and she said you were great. I just watched you and I really like your honesty and your do's and don'ts'. I grew green beans, canned 119 pints jars and was very proud of myself until I re-read the instructions. I only pressured canned for 10 minutes. I had to toss all 119 jars out and I still have not grown any green beans and that was 10 years ago. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Rhonda for sharing that very sad story! Maybe this will be the year you do can Green beans again! I can easily a hundred jars of either quart or pints and half size jars! I’m so glad you are here! Welcome!
All the best,
LeAnne
😢
I came over from Mouse Toes and I'm really glad I did. I feel a binge watch coming on. Thanks for doing reviving this collaboration. Take your pinto beans, drain them off and add them to your taco meat. I've left them as they are and I've smashed them. It's a great meat stretcher and you are using up you beans.
OH great tip on the beans Judy Domke. This is such a GREAT channel I am glad you are going to binge watch her!
Thank you! That’s a great tip! I love MouseToes she always brighten my day when I watch her!
The will/won't can again are my favorite collaboration! So helpful as to how to improve or avoid wasting time and money.
Yes we can’t be wasting food or time!
I laughed so hard when you talked about swiss chard! with you on pickles; when we came back from Spain where for 2.5 years I did not get ONE pickle spear with a sandwich I went hella crazy canning pickles. Took us 4 years to eat them all and Vern would say " oh a pickle spear with beef stroganoff; OK" . GREAT tips on how to use your jars for different meals too.
I’m glad someone heard what I was saying about canning Swiss chard! Thanks MouseToes for being apart of this collaboration! Everyone needs to watch your video! I loved that message of canning safely!
Oh I love this woman! When she doesn't like something, it is in her voice, her face, and her words! Love it! I will go back and watch more of her videos!
Thank you Deb for your very kind words! You’re absolutely right! I’m genuine.
@@MennoniteFarmhouse Thank you!
I love that you've made this an open collaboration. Some have been closed but like you I believe the more the merrier! Very gracious of you and I hope your channel finds great success!
Yes! I thought everyone’s opinion is worth while to listen to especially when we might not agree! Thank you for the very kind words, Georgina!
I love my canned, pinto beans. We eat them often. Dehydrated are really good, too.
I'm glad I found your channel
Welcome, Abby, I’m so glad you are here!
LeAnne
I really enjoy watching and listening to your channel. I usually watch your videos while I'm quilting. ❤
That’s great! I’m putting a quilt together right now… of 12 inch Ohio stars. They were orphan blocks [20] that were hand pieced and hand sewn together that I bought at a Salvation Army fabric sale. I cut more blocks to make a good size quilt and I’m putting them on point.
Been canning for 3+ years and always looking for new, good canning channels so here i am. Looking forward to your content. Thanks for sharing with us and for all your hard work bringing it to us.
Welcome! I’m so glad you are here and I hope you love the content of the channel!
Loves: tomatoes, jams and jellies, soups, beans, meats. NOT SO MUCH: red tomato jam, green pepper jelly, and that's about it. I love to can.
My favs for canning: Meat, green beans, potatoes, beans, applesauce, jams, several types of tomato sauces, soups, broths, chili, meatballs in mushroom broth.
I haven’t tried meatballs yet but maybe some day!
I really LOVE your personality 😂 straight forward, humble and funny. I appreciate your honesty tips & tricks to this canning journey.
Thank you so very much!
"...because he cried" LOL! Your video gave me lots to consider and was very entertaining. :)
I’m glad! You found it worth your time to watch! What’s funnier is my husband is very quiet around most people! Thanks for watching
Thank you for sharing your can again keepers .and your not can again. Love the honesty. Happy Tuesday ❤
Thanks Jamie!!
Most welcome,
It is so much fun to hear how one person loves canning a particular thing while it ends up on the never again list of another canner.
I have also abandoned dill pickles, preferring to put up relish which I use more often.
I love canned pumpkin. I agree there is work involved but pumpkin is so readily available that I don't fret over waste when I am pealing it. The rind, and guts I trim away go in my worm bin and are turned into fertilizer before I know it. I've trained myself to think ahead and puree and drain a jar of pumpkin the day before baking with it. Any leftover puree is added to my collie's dog dish, she likes it and I understand its very good for their digestive system.
I think we think the same way.. I can talk for ever on how I feel about what i have canned in the past.
You are adorable, and absolutely hilarious!! I've subscribed. God bless you, girl!!
Thank you! I’m so glad you are here! God Bless you!
Sweet and sour sauce? Yum! The chard looks difficult…but if your hubby loves it, that’s super sweet to make it! I need to try your French onion soup. Happy canning!
we quarter the pumpkins and throw them into the oven in a roasting pan. once cooled scrape out the flesh. It's now sweet. fill your jars and pressure can. great for a side instead of mashed potatoes or for tarts and pies. much easier than peeling and blanching. And you might want to try the no soak method for canning beans. they don't get as mushy. I agree though that small batch cooking for beans works also. And I agree with the peppers. you can throw frozen peppers in a fry pan and you'd never tell them from fresh some things are not can-able. lol that's why these types of videos are helpful
Thanks LeAnn for hosting this collab - I’m new to canning so I appreciate everyone’s opinion!!
Thanks JoAnn, I’m glad you find this content interesting to listen to!
Beans! Potatoes! Meat! Stocks! Things I won't be canning again, hamburger, fruits because i can't have sugar. I will make for gifts. I agree with you on bell peppers. I throw them in my bread dough, drained first. I can't waste things!
Sounds great!
Here to check out your channel. Someone said it was needed?
All I see is someone doing an Excellent Job!
Tell everyone The Internet.Police said so!
Sweet and sour sauce recipe PLEASE....AND CANNING.
💖😁
Will do when my home grown tomatoes ripen! Thank you for watching!
You are absolutely precious!!! I love this video. Thank you!
Thank you for the very kind words!
Here's a few tricks for crisp pickles: add horseradish leaves or grape leaves, make sure you start with crisp cucumbers, and the best tip, let your brine cool before pouring over your pickles. There's enough acid in the vinegar to kill everything.
Thank you! I might try again next year but I have so many in the cellar still!
Excellent and well done video LeAnne! I love that you gave detailed explanations of why you would or would not can certain items again. You’re providing valuable info to newbies. Also, I love you acknowledged lessons you learned.
Thanks Lisa! I hope this collaboration helps the next person from saving food
It's very interesting hearing what people will and won't do again! Thanks!
Thanks for watching, it’s a subject that’s dear to my heart!
Heather sent me here and I'm glad she did! Can't wait to watch a bunch of your videos! Subscribed!
Welcome! I’m so glad you you are here! I love Heather! Lots of my content has her spirit in it! Thanks for watching Kelly!
Hi honey. Pleade feel confident in sharing your canning videos. I am a 65 yr old experienced canner but love to watch and learn anything I can. Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for encouragement! I did 39 quarts of red beets last week with some help… thank goodness for help!
I used to can. I'm almost 77 years old, and I loved the pretty glass jars showing my harvest I worked so hard to put up. Now I freeze most foods. One thing I wouldn't can anymore when I did is ketchup. It took a lot of tomatoes to get a decent amount of ketchup. 🙄🤨😁
Ketchup is a lot of work. My husband made me a electric pot stirrer so I can make it with less effort for my birthday last year. I think was more for him than me… He loves my ketchup.
Bought some wide mouth jars pints and quarts for meats!!! Do all types of meats even pike fish bones and all tastes like salmon almost!!!
That’s wonderful!
I love your energy. I stumbled across your channel after making onion jam and now I'm hooked! Thanks for all of the great recipes!
Welcome! I'm so glad you are here!
I totally agree with not doing Bruschetta in a Jar! Not as tasty as I had hoped.
I love how real you are! Just saying it like it is
That’s me… that’s how I was raised by my folks.
Canning meat is my number one!! I can't can enough of it!
Same here!
Hi Leane this is Karen from South Jersey I'm 54 years old been in jersey all my life. I am coming over as an invite from Heather of the Kneady Homesteaders Channel. Nice to meet you 😊. I'm actually surprised that I never heard of your channel until I heard Heather mention you. Now that I'm here I'll be doing a marathon of your videos so I can catch up on your entire channel and looking forward to watching.
Thanks Karen! Believe it or not my very first CZcams video was apart of The Inspired by Kneady series on her channel last spring! Heather asked me to make a video and how could I not do it for her! I showed how to make yogurt because in January 2021 she mentioned in a video she wanted to learn how to make it. Now 9 months later here I am! You will notice Heather spirit is in my videos maybe not the ones with strawberries but the rest is!!
My mother canned something called 'mock olives', they had the texture and flavor of green olives, delicious!
That’s interesting!
That problem with pickles persists here! I had to "clear shelf space" the other day. I was shocked how many pickles were there that were several years old.
I heard the other week any cucumber with seeds are too big for pickles… so maybe I will try next year.
There is a Ball book about canning small batches. That's how I would do cucumbers. Small batches relish, dill,bread and butter.About your beans don't pre-cooked your beans before you can them that is if you're just canning beans. And if you still don't like the look of them just make them into refried beans afterwards then.On your pumpkin's I scrub the outside of mine pumpkin real good then cut them into chunks then drain them then peel them afterwards its alot easier that way.Or cut them in half and try roasting them, scoop out the inside and use in a recipe that way. Or just store your pumpkin's whole as they are. For later use their good for 6-8 months. I would use pints or pints and an half instead of quarters for your canning of pumpkins the only difference is I mashed the vegetable before you put it in the jar. It's enough for 1 pie,1 cake, 1set of cupcakes. But you probably already know this so I'll will stop talking. But here's a recipe to help get read of some of your not so good looking beans. Its called Mexican casserole it doesn't look good either. But my kids love it. They even ask me to make it on their birthday sometimes. 2qrts of drain pinto beans mashed, 1 can of cream of mushrooms, can cream of chicken, 1 4oz can of green chilies peppers, 1lb of ground beef with 1 onion chop cooked and drained off any fat, then mix altogether, next spray a 9×13 pan with oil, 1st layer of your casserole is 1 large bag of doritos chips crushed spread out evenly on the bottom of the pan, next layer of the casserole is cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend of cheese )your choice you will need 4 cups,last layer is the meat mixture pour on top cover tin foil bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Like I said it doesn't look good but it sure tastes great.
I love I’ve found your channel. Your cooking ideas to keep variety and avoid food boredom. ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
I’m a new subscriber-came because of this collaboration and recommended by several CZcams friends.
Welcome! I’m so glad you are here! I hope you enjoy my content!
So shocked that your beans didn't work. My husband and I love my canned beans. Not mushy and he loved them for his specialty, chili beans. Thanks for this collaboration.
Thanks Sally! I might try them again 2LeeLou Creates talked me into canning them again. Lots of comments I have had said to try them again. Thanks for watching this wonderful collaboration! I have personally watched all of them atleast once!
It surprised me how much I liked canned meat when I started. Also, just discovered cowboy candy. So good.😚
Oh and I came from KNEADY!! ❤
Welcome! I'm so glad you are here!
"Pickles of every sorts and kinds..." I understand that. My pickles always get mushy. I do however love canning and useing relish.
Same here we use relish way more often!
I know what you mean - the biggest hit in our house was MUSHROOMS - I couldn't put up nearly enough of them, the kids would eat them out of the jars when I wasn't looking ... but made some at the cabin, and just the change in wells changed the taste!
I just opened a jar of mushrooms I canned a few weeks ago in a video and they are so amazing good!
I’m so glad Teresa told me about your channel. I agree about most of your choices too. I’m going to watch your playlist and I hope I can get enough time to add my point of view.
Wonderful! Welcome, I’m so glad you are here!
I found you through Freedom Homestead. I am excited to see what your channel has to offer :).
Welcome, I’m so glad you are here! I love Tangi’s channel. I have been watching her for four years now!
Hi coming over from Rachel and The 1870’s homestead.
Welcome Lanette! I am so glad you are here and enjoy the content of my channel!
2leelou sent me! Subscribed! Had to laugh over the Swiss chard and pickle discussion lol 👍
Welcome! I am so glad you are here. Yes Swiss Chard is not my favorite thing to can or eat!
I love your video and laughed with you too. I love your honesty and I can’t wait to see more. Hugs❤️
Thank you Terra!
Just found this collabration and I am having a great time working my way this topic!!
Wonderful! Enjoy, I can talk for hours on what I like and don’t like canning!
I appreciate your honesty.
Thank you! It’s who I am!
Totally agree on the pumpkin, won’t can it again. And yep way too many pickles!
Awesome that you!
This was fun to watch. We need to can more and it was good hearing your good ideas and the things you won't. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Rich and Holly! I’m glad you enjoyed this! Take care!
I do refrigerator pickles or pickled onion one jar at a time. My favorite thing to can is meat.
Wonderful!
Wonderful video with lots of great information! Side note: Beautiful eyes! Your dress even matches your eyes.
Thanks Tonya!!
I make my pickled onions refrigerator style. They stay crunchy that way and last for a long time.
That’s how I’m going to do them from now on!
You don't have to cook those beans one minute before you can them. You put a "scant cup" in a quart jar, your salt and spices. I add a jalapeño and garlic because that's my style. Then pour in boiling water to the fill and throw them in the pressure cooker for 90 minutes.
Now beans in summer with out turning the kitchen into a blessed sauna.
With excess peppers, try the NCFHP marinated peppers! Great to pour over a roast in a crockpot or include in a pasta dish. A definite Italian flavor that we love! Plus you wb them
Thank you! I will give that a try!
So happy to have found your channel. Love it. How have I missed it.God bless.
Ima, Welcome! I’m so glad you are here! My channel is only 9 months old and CZcams likes to guess what you might want to see. Thanks for watching! God Bless you and yours!
nice sharing my new friend. keep up the good work.
Thank you friend!
GG Deb here...I love this video..keep making them.
Thank you! Will do!
I would love to see how you make the sweet and sour sauce.
Will do! Thanks for watching!
Im new at this so this was very good information.. Thanks! 😉
Thanks Barb! I’m glad it’s worth while!
For the peppers, they work better as tomatoes, peppers and onions, or pickled peppers, or pepper jelly. All of those are water bath canning and the peppers hold their shape and texture. And I use tomatoes, peppers, and onions (TPO) for everything...TPO and hamburger and elbow noodles with salt and pepper to taste is a great goulash that my family craves. It will also work as a chili base, as spaghetti sauce base, a tomato soup base, its endless.
I have made pickled pepper strips, pepper relish and pepper jelly the year I pressure canned them along with dehydrating them.
I just watched the "kneady" too and showed up here!
Welcome! I’m so glad you are here! I love Heather! If you love her channel you will love mine. It’s inspired by her since she got me on CZcams!
Love your honesty on your mistakes
North Carolina here
Pennsylvania Native
Very nostalgic watching all your videos
Some foods ive forgotten about that I ate as a child ..and will make again
Thanks to you 😊
Thank you! I use to live In Carlisle and that brings memories back. I’m sure I will make more Pa Dutch food in the future!
So happy I found this channel 🥰
Yay!!
Thanks for sharing. Please don't give up on canned beans. They are one of my favorites. Rebel can them 1/2 cup for pints, 75 minutes,. They come out perfect.
I’m going to try something other than pinto… they are just mush!
Thank you!!! Such amazingness!
Thank you! Too kind!
Thank you Leanne for organizing this collaboration. Being a new canner this is so helpful. I love you channel.
Thank you! I thought it was so important with new canners like yourself to learn from what I have done. Just because canning is work and you don’t wanna waste time and or money in these projects!
Strawberry lemonade concentrate, Chilli starter, pizza sauce have all been a yes in my house. I will not can much salsa cuz we don't eat it!
I canned a bunch of peppers, too. My big mistake was that I should have peeled them first because if you leave the skin on they will be bitter. Or at least that's what happened to me. I did them by themselves and I also did them in Pepper Soup without peeling and it was a soft bitter mess! On the other hand, I made another batch of Pepper Soup but this time I peeled them and it is REALLY GOOD.
I’ve done Heathers French Onion soup for a Long time, it makes the best Roast beef. My family raved about the flavor it gave the meat, and I add it to most of my soups!
I’m about to make more of that soup! I just love that soup when I’m sick!!
I do all my beans DRY they are perfect!! Try it sometime they are great! I also do DRY pack potatoes they are awesome (chop, soak, rinse at least 3 times) jar up no water
Yeah, with peppers, I'm right there with you on not canning them. I don't care for them that way either. I either freeze or dehydrate mine if I have an abundance. I like seeing what you and other people like and don't like to can. So interesting!
Exactly!! I love watching these types of videos and getting everyone's perspective on canning!
Thank you for this collaboration.
Thank you for watching! It was so fun to do!!
Agree on not canning bell peppers!
Yes!
Thanks for sharing your canning collaboration 🤩!
Thanks for watching sista!
I came over from. Kneady homestead. I really enjoyed your video. I subscribed 🤗 God bless can't wait to watch all your videos
Thanks for hosting this collab. I'm taking notes of things that are recommended and discouraged. When I evaluated my pickle consumption, I realized that I sliced them on burgers, chopped them to make tartar sauce and chopped them to make 1000 Island dressing. Trom that time on I decided to make Dill Relish instead. it meets works for all three uses. Canned pumpkin is on my ALWAYS list. I used it to make pies and pumpkin bread and feed it to the dog. The vet suggested it as a fiber source (nice firm turds). Draining the pumpkin doesn't bother me. I know if I want to bake with it I need to prep it the day before. I use up any leftover in Pumpkin Oatmeal. For me the best peeling technique is slice the pumpkin and then remove the peel from each slice using a knife. Yes, it is a little time consuming.
Thank Linda! I’m glad you are taking notes about on the topic! I’m glad you realize that about pickles. I rather can relish than pickles. I love the crunch of store bought pickles when I’m at a gathering! I might try your method of canning pumpkin. I just hate not using the whole jar when I open it. I don’t have dogs or chickens that would eat it. Thanks for watching!
LeAnne
Great subject, thanks for sharing! ManyBlessings!
Thank you and God Bless you!
Thanks for your sincerty
Thank you Bonnie for watching! I hope you learned something.
All the best,
LeAnne
We love pickles! We eat about a jar a week. I have never canned pumpkin myself. I always buy commercial. I don’t can beans either. They get mushy.
I will send you my pickle stash! Lol
I can pintos and make refried beans out of them. Or season them for chili beans. ..
Girl, run those pickles through the grinder and use in salads all summer. Potato, macaroni, chicken, egg, tuna...we eat it on hot dogs and burgers as well.
I totally agree…. I make relish and skip the pickles.
I always blanch my greens before chopping and filling the jars. Save the liquid, after cooking the greens, just wring them out in hand sized balls...chop as fine or rough as you prefer to, the fill the jars, top off with the blanching liquid.
I will try that! I really have problems with siphoning when canning Swiss chard in quarts. Pints seem to do well but husband insist in me canning in quarts. I keep telling him he needs to help. Lol
@@MennoniteFarmhouse 🤗😁
Very informative. Lots to think about as I begin my canning adventure. 😊
Thank you! I have lots of canning videos on my channel!
I made pickled coliflower and use pickle crisp. It does stay crunchy.
Agree with most. Love canning meats: hamburger, chicken, beef roasts. Haven’t tried pork…yet.
Love canning potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, tomato sauces, broths & dried beans. I do not precook them. Watch Heather’s videos. My husband loves mushrooms so I can them, for him. Oh and onion jam. Which brings up any other jams/jellies. More that I want to try.
I am done with canning pickles of any kind. They are non-essential, take up space and I would rather just buy them if needed/wanted. So far that’s the only thing that I can currently say that I will not can again.
Wonderful! I make dip with onion jam that’s yummy! I’m glad you enjoyed this collaboration! Thanks for watching Renita!
Thank you for sharing and a big thank you for sharing you mess ups. This is how we learn. Can’t wait to watch some more if your videos😊
Thanks for your very kind words!! ♥️
I eat a lot of sweet pickles and use them in chicken, tuna, and egg salad- I can 14 day sweet pickles and sweet lime pickles - old fashioned recipes that take your chicken salads to the next level - also i grew up eating the sweet lime pickles so yeah. I love them and can’t find them in the store & now I know how to grow cucumbers so It’s very economical for me.
That’s great!
I'm brand new to canning and found this will/won't video so helpful. Thanks for your time on this and look forward to exploring your channel more.
Welcome! I’m so glad you are here!
I pickle bell peppers with garlic.
Thanks for all your insights.
Kris in Orlando
LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT VIDEO AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Thanks Susan! Monday I will have my favorite casserole out in time for Gregs Kitchen Casserole Collaboration!
I’m with you on the pickles. I stopped making them years ago. If I want a pickle I just buy a small jar for my husband and myself. The things that I do can every year for my husband is corn relish and potatoes. Even as many years as I have canned I am still learning and updating all the time. Great video.
Thanks Karen! I can corn relish once every few years just because of all the pickled things down there. I want to find the right kind of potato to can!
Enjoying your channel very much. Thank you.!
Thank you Deb! Thanks for saying that!
Very interesting. Love it it helps us beginner canners. 👍😊
Yes! It’s handy to see what works for people!
