A Full Day of Canning | Preserving The Harvest

[@MsLisaBrooks]

I NEVER get bored watching you canning and working in your kitchen. I find your videos relaxing and get lots of ideas.

[@abbeyverigin]

Thank you Lisa! I appreciate you saying that

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

One of the things I enjoy is getting new ideas of recipes to can. I can’t tell you how often it has provided a way to use extra produce. Even though I have multiple canning books it just strikes me differently when watching it come together for someone else! Thanks for sharing.

[@abbeyverigin]

I agree! Thanks for watching Cheryl

[@micheleturner2510]

Thank you for caring to share with us. I love watching your videos and watching you work in the kitchen you share so many great things. I just started canning a yr ago and I love it. Just canned the bruschetta in a jar and I can't wait too try it.

[@pamt8430]

A steam canner is the way to go. Less water and time heating it up.

[@sheilaMagilicudy]

Great to see you Abbey. Well that was a productive day. I can always find time for canning. I have been going a little crazy lately but my pantry looks amazing. Great time to do it. Better to grow your own, I don't have the time for a garden but love supporting the local markets. Cheers

FYI: To keep the lovely green color of your green beans you add 30 mg zinc to pint jars and 60mg to quarts. Your green beans will now have that lovely green color.

[@abbeyverigin]

I’ve heard that!

[@Andrea-si2vs]

I haven't researched this myself, but I've read that is not safe advice due to possiblity of zinc toxicity. Something to consider before choosing to do this yourself.

[@preppingmama]

@@Andrea-si2vsmost people are deficient, though?

[@simplydivine5053]

@@Andrea-si2vs 30 mg is a dose for one person each day and I’m sure they aren’t going to be eating numerous pints a day. Spread across a couple of people it’s even less. Besides, manufactures add zinc to green beans, and that’s why they are so green. I guess you better stay away from green beans totally unless fresh.Besides every other product they add vitamins to.

[@jctrumb]

I too am currently canning green beans every week if not twice a week. It's also one of my most used items. 👍🏻I am going to try the bruschetta in a jar, sounds wonderful. Thanks for always inspiring me.

[@sue130]

I made the bruschetta it was fabulous!! Thank you!!

[@abbeyverigin]

That’s great! Thanks for watching!

You do your Anaheim Peppers just like I do. I also get 20 pounds of Hatch when they are in season. (every August). I can them in 1/2 pint jars (15 jars) and that is the perfect size for us to make pork carnitas (aka green chile). I think I will try the bruschetta. I always enjoy your videos!!

[@abbeyverigin]

Thank you Carrie! I need to get more peppers so I have some to can. The bruschetta is great, let me know if you try it!

[@Lynn_Up_North]

OMG, roll up your sleeves! I have a phobia…. Lol

[@letsstartahomestead]

The amount of white you wear in the kitchen both impresses me and stresses me out 🤣😅

[@COUNTS1096]

I came to the comments just to say how impressed I am that she wore a white shirt while canning tomatoes and didn’t end up looking like an emergency room doctor by the end lol. Glad I’m not the only person who fixates on dumb stuff 😂

[@abbeyverigin]

Honestly the only time I manage not to spill on myself is while filming 🤣 with my track record I should probably never wear white and should definitely wear an apron

Cricky the product looks good.

[@abbeyverigin]

Thank you!

[@deniseclark-zo2io]

Hey Abby! I have been growing roma tomatoes for sauce. I have about 8 bags in the freezer, single layered to make pasta sauce when everything dies down from the summer. Do you have a good pasta sauce that you would recommend? I plan on using my roasting pan when it's time to process them. Love your videos!

[@Junkinsally]

Everything looks great! I was going to make the tomato relish (bruschetta in a jar) but totally forgot. I don’t think I will anymore tomatoes get ripe, but will definitely be putting this on the “must can” list for next year. Can never have to make pints of green beans! Such an easy side dish. I have some “mystery” peppers in the garden this year that are the color of a banana pepper but are shaped and have the heat of jalapeños. They green from a package of Bell pepper seeds. I’m going to pickle them and hope they are good on pizza.

[@abbeyverigin]

The bruschetta is so nice to have a few jars of on the shelf. We definitely have some mystery peppers in our garden as well. Can’t go wrong with pickled peppers! Thanks for watching :)

[@cherylb.9766]

It would be nice if she said her tomatoes were not canned with an approved recipe. But everything does look nice

[@abbeyverigin]

@@cherylb.9766 ball does have a tested recipe for raw packed tomatoes with no added liquid. I feel comfortable keeping the skins on

[@sheliaheverin8822]

I made the bruschetta in a jar with my abundance of cherry tomatoes. It seems a little vinegary (I had a partial jar) and not as thick as I'd like. I guess I didn't pack the tomatoes tight enough.

[@abbeyverigin]

Oh no, that is a bummer. Have you tried straining off the brine? I haven’t found this recipe to be too vinegary

[@canthurttotry9962]

I know Forjars is a great lid but has anyone tried the Superb lids? I am always looking for alternative lids just in case. Thanks!

[@megmoszeter3825]

What brand is the pot you made the brine in?
