[@berlyn1187]

Hey Becky, my method for skinning tomatoes is to cut them in half, cut out the core and put them on a baking sheet, cut side down. Put them under the broiler for a couple minutes and watch them, when they start to wrinkle take them out and the skins will just pinch right off. Super easy and way way faster than the water method!

I am loving the fact that almost every other day you have another video coming out. Im thinking with a baby on its way, you might want to spread out your video’s so you have something to run while you go without sleep that very first month. You can always interrupt some video’s that may be out of step with the actual date, with some holiday video’s that are current. Don’t forget to have some extra video put aside. You’ll need them once the baby arrives. ALSO, running things a bit behind schedule is also good for video’s when you announce your going on vacation. It’s best to make those announcements, AFter you’ve already gone and are back home. This one is more about safety. Love your Video’s !! Keep them Coming !!!

[@BeLLaRN19]

Becky!!! I damn near had a heart attack when you switched the bowl for the pot of enchilada sauce! Calling my doc to increase my Zoloft dose tomorrow, lol! Thank you for being so positive and giving me something to look forward to, as well as keeping things in perspective. I am a nurse with parents who have and are battling major health crises, on top of the stress of COVID. You've inspired me to expand my garden, make homemade garlic powder (I currently have onions in the dehydrator on the porch to make onion powder), to learn about canning and to appreciate the products of all of my local farmers. If it weren't for these positive distractions, I don't know where I'd be emotionally, but I appreciate you, unknowingly, getting me through those dark days. As a side note, we struggled with infertility for years and then quite randomly became pregnant at the onset of Covid. Low and behold, your little miracle has a similar due date to mine, 12/11! Although she decided upon an earlier debut, Miss Mia Louise has brought me joy I had never known, and I know your little one will do the same! Sorry for the super long post, I just wanted you to know how much you've helped me over the last year. ❤️😊

[@SuwanneeStation]

My family tilled, planted, tended and harvested vegetables to feed our family of 7 every year and my dad's sisters family of 4 Canning was an every summer thing. You name it my momma canned it. She had one stove top canner like you. We had a potato bin that our years worth of potatoes was kept in. It was a layer of straw then potatoes and alternating until all the potatoes was in the bin. My momma's jellys, pickles dill, salt brine, bread and butter pickles yum. Wonderful memories. It does my heart good to see a younger generation carrying out a labor of love.

I’m usually not a big commenter but I just had to compliment you on your editing (which I know really isn’t the main focus of the channel) I love how you finish every sentence you started even if the location changes in between and I also really like how you often already cut to you doing the things while you still explain them. Your videos never feel too long because of this and I could watch it for hours and hours and I look forward to them every time 🥰

For all of us out there wondering about the chili Becky mentioned- GWAH-HEEYOH. They are dried mirasol chilies and soo versatile in Mexican cuisine

[@BizzyBee30]

It's much easier to remove the seeds before you toast. You don't want the seeds, seeds will cause whatever you're making to turn bitter. Commonly used dry peppers you'll see in stores. Guajillo= Mirasol Chipotle= Jalapeño Ancho= Poblano Pacilla= Chilaca Mulato= differnt poblano variety & different level of ripeness New Mexico= Hatch Birds Eye= Thai California/Colorado= Anaheim Seco= Serrano

[@lisapop5219]

I have to disagree a bit. Some of the peppers change names depending upon how they are preserved which changes the flavor. For example, jalapeño fresh is very different from the smoked chipotle.

[@Puddingcup110]

@@lisapop5219 that’s because it’s smoked. Its turned into Chipotle in adobe.

I’m probably repeating something someone else has already said but your quartz counters are not as tough as your granite ones. They do stain but you can use soft scrub on them. Also, be careful about putting very hot pots or pans on them. Best to use a trivet or folded towel under them.

[@dianatennant4346]

Just a tip and we used to do this in the canning cookbook that we always used and it looks like you print out your recipes each year so if you've got a journal or something mark down how big of a batch will fit in your large pot. It's just helpful to you you don't have the guessing games if you're doing you know 20 times your recipe mark down someplace that you can do 20 times that recipe in that pot which looks like this is going to be a long-term pot in your kitchen. Also markdown along with that any ideas that you think you could have done a little better on it or add a little more something or a little less something so you've got to running commentary

The stirring you did was relaxing to watch. So nice you were gifted that huge pot. Great video Becky.

[@PaolitaEstrada]

Hi Becky! I'm relatively new to your channel, it was recommended to me about 2 weeks ago and I've been watching all your past videos. I've found so many awesomeness recipes that I want to try out (baked oatmeal is going to be my first). It's so inspirational to grow your own veggies and fruits, though this is hard for me as I don't own a house yet but maybe in the future. I just wanted to say thank you for always being so positive and for the inspiration to make more homemade meals for me and my husband 😊

[@wingandaprayer7777]

Becky, you are always such a great joy to watch! You make us laugh, sometimes we shed a tear with you and rejoice when there is good news. Thank you for all you do! Tell Josh we love it when he pulls a cameo shot with you! You two are just so cute together! God bless!

You're so kind and modest and everything you mentioned so far (lifestyle and avoiding gross ingredients) is right up my alley. Quick subscription! 😊

Next time toast the peppers on the bbq so as not to smoke or smell up the house. It’s dangerous to over fill the blender with hot stuff. Leave it at least half empty. Slower speeds also.. stay safe.

[@kristenevans4557]

I would do some tomato soup. That would be a tasty addition to your pantry. You could always do a tomato bisque concentrate that you add heavy cream to after you open the jar and go to heat it up. That would be a huge time saver. I use enchilada sauce when I make a Mexican rice. Add enchilada sauce and chicken stock as the liquid for the rice, salt as well as some cumin and you get that delicious Mexican type rice. Yum. Girl, you got a LOT done! Whew, wore me out watching. LoL Great job.

[@kristenevans4557]

@@pennynickels5216 I can try to figure one out. I’m like Becky, and I don’t do things by recipes but technique.

[@kristenevans4557]

@@pennynickels5216 Sauté 1 large onion, 2 stalks of celery and 1 good size carrot- peeled, finely diced in olive oil at medium heat with 1 T kosher salt and 2 tsp pepper until translucent (onions) add 2-3 Tablespoons Arborio rice and continue to sauté for 5-10 min. Add 2 Tablespoons tomato paste and as many cloves of garlic that you like. For me that’s about 3-4 good sized ones grated over a fine microplane or crushed, and sauté until the paste deepens in color. Add 1 large can or 2 small cans crushed tomatoes and 1 container chicken stock or homemade. Cook over medium heat for about 30 min and check seasoning. You may need to add a teaspoon of sugar to offset the acid in the tomatoes. I add 1-2 teaspoons of onion powder and garlic powder. Purée soup with a stick blender (easiest) or a blender and add 3/4- 1 cup of heavy cream. Stir and taste for seasoning. Serve with fresh grated Parmesan cheese.

I just started canning a bit this year. I bought a water bath canner and then asked for a pressure cooker for my bday. I was scared to do it at first. Made 2 batches of corn in it and it was way easier than I expected!

how exciting! There is so much you can do with it! Have fun! 😊😊

Silently crying inside because my daughter just got an epippen a couple days ago for tomatoes 😭 I loved cooking with tomato everything. I absolutely love tomatoes too. Looks amazing tooo!! I love watching all your videos Becky! You inspire me to have my own homestead one day. 💜 I impatiently wait for your videos to pop up every time I get on KZbin.

[@dellal5930]

Food allergies suck! I carry 2 pens because of allergies to things like coconut, fish oil. Coconut is popping up in a lot of things these days. For your daughter, tomatoes are a difficult thing to substitute. Is she allergic to them raw AND cooked? I can't have them raw, but once cooked or acid denatured (lemon juice), I can have them. Peace be with you. :) Della

[@leesahuddle2854]

I'm sorry to hear that! My daughter's and grands have some food allergies. One is deathly allergic to mangoes and anything in that "family" and onions! I cook so much with onions for my hubby and myself, so when I make goodies for her and her family it's very different!

Becky you are such an inspiration to me! Its so nice that you are getting some extra canning done since next year you'll have your precious baby to look after also. I get to live through you, watching you garden, cook, can and all the amazing projects you and Josh are doing to your home. I am only able to cook small meals now and not very often. I am mostly bedridden and in a wheelchair on good days. My health has been deterrating for a few years, and your videos bring me so much joy. I'm so thankful for you for always bringing such happiness, joy and great ideas from your heart and home to ours! God bless you always!

[@cowgirlchelle1]

I peeled my tomatoes and then dehydrated the peels and then blended them into powder and added them back to thicken my sauce. It worked fabulously.

I think it’s so interesting to see how many variations of enchilada sauces are out there, and it’s awesome!! I was born and raised in New Mexico where red and green Chile is grown in abundance. Enchiladas is definitely a FAVORITE in our home, and I usually make them once a week. LOL I currently live in Arizona and have been fortunate to find the Chile we love! Thank you for sharing the wonderful recipe for the sauce you made. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@livingthroughthechaos]

I’m in Az also and just wondering what chilies you use for your sauce?

[@desireediaz5331]

@@livingthroughthechaos we get Hatch, New Mexico green Chile from VERTUCCIO FARMS in Mesa, AZ. We bought 90lbs about 2 years ago, and I still have a bit left in my freezer.

I got a Warner tomato processor that I replaced the sauce master.. It’s heavy so sits on the counter & can process tomatoes (removes the seeds & skins) awesome tool in minutes & easy to clean! Made a huge diff in making anything tomatoes & berries.

[@melissalong1944]

Hi Becky. It always makes my day to see one of your video's up to watch. You know, when you make your ketchup and remove the peels of the tomatoes, you can freeze dry tomatoe peels and make them into a powder for soups and other tomatoe products. You can even reconstitute them in some water and make tomatoe paste. BTW, they chili's you couldn't pronounce are said like: Gwa hee oh . There is a YT channel called Views on the Road where two hispanic sisters cook and share their recipes for classic and traditional mexican food recipes. You should give them a look see, you might find some other recipes you might love as well. Mole' sauce is another traditional mexican sauce when made at home is a staple and wonderful. Looking forward to your next upload! take care

Hi Becky. With some of my tomatoes, I made tomato sauce in my slow cooker. I took off the stems,& core, cut of the tomatoes. Cut them into 4, add red onions, & yellow onions, added my frozen peppers. Yellow, green, red, orange colored peppers. Put them into the bowl, add your spices. Mine are Clubhouse Italian Seasoning with the red lid only, rosemary, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, turmeric, salt, no pepper due to my deadly allergy to pepper spices.

Thanks for sharing your canning day! It is a lot of work!I can the same: I can enough so that I only have to can each item every other year. My Grandmothers canned the same as well. AND...it also allows for different crops in the garden so you can rotationally garden and keep pests under control!! Love the taste tests!!

[@MaritaCovarrubias01]

Sometimes you can get bitterness from the pepper steeping liquid. Make sure to taste it before blending it into your sauce. Chicken broth is a nice substitute.

[@aprilninthr2886]

[@vysgiyi]

My family is from Albuquerque, NM and I would have told you the only chilis that are used in enchilada sauce are from Hatch, NM. I legit had no idea you could or should make a mix of chilis! And seriously that sauce master is genius. Ive never known anyone who had one and straining the sauce makes this labor of love a nightmare. I'm so excited you were able to make so much of it so quickly! I was also shocked how quickly you were able to make that tomato sauce, Those dried tomatoes are totally a game changer. Can't wait to see your next project!

[@rondamcbride6607]

Becky love all the wonderful recipes. In New Mexico we make red Chile sauce with a garlic, salt and the red Chile pods. We rehydrate the peppers and blend and run through a colander to take the seeds and peelings out but we love hot 😁🥰 we then layer with corn tortillas and cheese. It is often served with pinto beans and Spanish rice

Your theory of canning is exactly the way we felt! Can it while it’s available, next year might be zero!

[@lindabirkes-lance8915]

Becky, I loved watching today’s canning video. My only problem is when I see you pick up and move those unbelievably full bowls of tomato purée/juice and then you carry it somewhere!!! I can see myself jiggling the pan and then dumping that beautiful sauce all over the place. Thanks for all of your inspiration.

[@DjChelan]

I can not even carry a cup of coffee with out spilling, so I too got nerves when she picked up those very full bowls!

[@dcmc7383]

This was so cool to watch. I think I have wayyyy over-worked some steps in my preparation for canning. Everything doesn't have to be perfect (e.g. skinning the tomatoes) to still get a good product. I am so going to make my own enchilada sauce. I'm also glad the strained pepper/seed/skin product is going to be used for seasoning....I was thinking "that stuff could be gold" when Becky said she had plans for it. Becky rules again!

[@chris109]

With any extra tomatoes, you could slice them thinly & dehydrate them. They come out nice & crispy. Then store them in a glass jar. And whenever you feel like eating a BLT sandwich, use the dehydrated tomatoes instead of fresh! The flavor is fantastic & there’s no juiciness trickling down your arm when you eat your sandwich! PS. I heard about this on RoseRed Homestead.

[@kelseywood5167]

My son joined me in watching your video tonight (he is 3.5 years old) and when you started putting the Enchilada sauce through that sauce master, he said "I want to make a volcano too!" 😂 he thought it looked like one of those volcano experiments! He has now watched 2 of your videos with me and he is hooked like me! They really calmed him down and I think this will be a new routine for us. Thank you for all you do and for bringing my little one and I together ❤️
