I have a mirro 16 quart canner. My weight after i put it on it gets up to pressure and then lets all the pressure off at once? It doesnt jiggle. Is that normal?

Lorrie, Have you made this as a sauce without the Italian herbs, just lemon juice, salt & thickening agent? I would like to have plain sauce, so to use for non Italian foods.

Good evening ma’am. I wanted to first thank you for all the recipes and canning videos you put up. I am bran new to canning this year, and I have been wondering if I can dry pack whole okra, or sliced yellow squash. The dry pack method you taught me is awesome. And I would love for my okra to stay buttery and whole and cut back on the slime by dry packing it. Also I would ad that I only water baths my cans. I dont have a pressure canner. Any suggestions would be of great help. Please be blessed❤

The one that I have doesn't have the lock one the handle and the vent is screwed on. My mother -in -law just gave it to me. I have never pressure canned before, just water bath. It's pretty large.

This is the very best instructional video that I have seen on KZbin, and believe me, I have watched a lot of them. YOU have a real talent for explaining everything from little to big. It was so clear and precise. I'm thrilled and I wanted to take the time to let you know how much I appreciate you! Nothing is worse than trying to learn how to do something and the person making the video forgets to explain a step!!!

Lorrie, if i use frozen broccoli or cauliflower, it gets wimpy when thawed. Does that make it similar to blanched or should it be blanched a little anyway?

@JoyfullyOrangeDeborah 11 күн бұрын

I learned my lesson about adding broccoli to meat for canning (i tried beef & broccoli base). It was horrible! I will only can broccoli with broth and maybe with like time veggies. Thank you for teaching us so much Lorrie! Many Blessings to you and Roger! 🧡🙏🏻

I got 3 #10 cans dented & cheap recently. Tomato paste, tomato sauce, and green chilies. I need to recan them into smaller jars. I've done tomato paste once before and that is a pain in the backside to get air bubbles out. Idk how long to process the green chilies for. Many Blessings to you and Roger! 🧡🙏🏻

I think I would like to use 1/4 pint (4oz) jars (for individual 1 serving size) what would you suggest for processing time? Would you stick to the standard processing time 1/2 pint time (20mins) Or would you lower the time?

@j7ndominica051 12 күн бұрын

The glue will dissolve in any hydrocarbon. Use white spirit. It's a fraction of gasoline that evaporates. Or some kind of food oil. Heat the jar up by pouring boiling water inside. Then you can take the label off in one piece. Then pour the water into the next jar. Some glues are water soluble, so it's worth trying that first. If you stick to standard dimensions and depth, you can get TO-66 and TO-82 replacement lids. Plan ahead before buying food. You can match the diameter in a supermarket by comparing to a known food item. Annoying when they stray away from 66 by a few millimeters. The smaller lids make a very firm mating. The bigger ones often do not aftrer they switched from 4 to 6 threads. The lid deforms under pressure and lifts up.

THANK-YOU, thank-you, thank-you.... I Dry Pack potatoes and love them. I have been searching for Dry Packing carrots. We don't like carrots in a can from the store. Typically, we steam fresh carrots. Your way I can keep them in my pantry. BTW, this is by far the best and most informative canning video I've watched. Teaching is your gift. p.s. I will be sharing this on Facebook.

@blueraven2345 19 күн бұрын

Could I ask you a question please? If I am not using the steam bath method and I am submerging the jars in water, when the 15 minutes is up for quarts do I turn the heat off and just raise the basket and let them sit in the pot for 10 minutes and then remove the jars, or do I raise the basket and leave lid on for 10 mins, then take the lid off and leave for another 10 mins ? I am trying to make sure that they are subjected to heat for long enough with this question., or perhaps it’s more about reducing the risk of siphoning and thermal shock to leave them in your canner for another 20 minutes total after the initial 15 minutes? Finally, how long should pints sit in the water to be processed? Sorry for asking for more details, and thank you again for your videos.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. I have only been gardening vegetables for a couple of years and have gotten to the stage where I have so much produce now that I have to learn how to can, but it feels like a bit of a minefield with so many different opinions on how to do things. Ypur videos set info out so clearly and since you have been doing this for such a long time, I feel confident in following your procedures. I swear, it feels like spending time with your favorite auntie. 💛 Thank you again.

Thank you for this, I love your videos because they are so thorough and address all the questions that everybody would have. I would like to ask one thing however, and that is according to the national center for home food preservation, “dry packing vegetables without water or liquid may be extremely hazardous”, what is your opinion on this statement ? Obviously you are happy with the method and viewers must choose canning methods at their own discretion, but if there is anything you could add I would be grateful to hear it, since I am fairly new to Canning. Thank you.

@millermeadows6359 21 күн бұрын

I personally am a believer that one MUST learn safe canning practices.....before they should bend the rules to suit their personally preferences. I'm HUGE on proper canning times. But scoff at "approved recipes". I respect the NCFHFP..... There is no denying that they have done their research. But let's be honest. They are also in a carefully controlled lab situation....hair nets, gloves, PH strips.....the whole 10 yards. Did they HONESTLY compare their results to Grandma Jones.....100 miles down the road on her farm that canned the exact same thing?? There IS no comparison. No results. They just tell everyone that THEIR way is the only "safe" way. Their recipe, is the only "safe" recipe. Many other countries cannot even own pressure canners. They do everything by hot water bath. They are still alive, well, and happy! And another thing the NCFHCS do not tell people is.... Even PRESSURE CANNED low acid items, like meat and veggies should be boiled, baked or fried to 212°F for 10 minutes before consuming them. Pressure canning something does not automatically make it "fail safe". You will not find me, or my family members eating pressure canned chicken right from the jar. Grandma, and Mom....taught me better than that. I'm not "against" the agencies. Some of what they teach is very well founded. But some of it imo.....is total bologna. They do not endorse canning pickled eggs at ALL. My family has canned shelf stable pickled eggs for GENERATIONS, (Using undiluted 5% vinegar) consumed them, and we are still here to tell the story and share the recipe. I take the agencies with a grain of salt.

@blueraven2345 21 күн бұрын

@@millermeadows6359 thank you so much for taking the time to go into such detail with your response. I have been forming the same opinions as you state here but as I said, I am new to this and I don’t have a history of generations in my family with Canning, in fact, nothing at all, so you can imagine how carefully I am trying to tread in this field. Thank you again.

I did a bunch of the dry pack potatoes after I watched your video on the potatoes. They turned out great. I have dry packed them with steak before and that is delicious. I am going to do some dry pack carrots after we get most of my carrots I have canned in water used up. Got a lot so it will be a while. Great video Lorrie.

I love your channel. I just found it today. I’m getting set up to do small potatoes, frozen thawed room dried corn. And from frozen , green beans. I could buy raw beans. But will I see a difference in raw vs frozen ?

@millermeadows6359 22 күн бұрын

I don't suggest dry packing corn. The natural sugars will scorch and brown it a lot. Add water to corn pack. Previously frozen green beans need the support of fluid in the jar also. Best if used in a canned soup application. Freezing breaks down the cell walls of green beans, making them soft. Use frozen green beans in a soup where you "expect" a soft veggie to be.
