My mom used to take me down into the cellar and show me all of the things she had canned each autumn . The jars glistened like jewels. She smiled and was so proud of her hard work. I swore I would never do any canning. After mom and dad passed my husband was able to salvage that shelving unit my dad had built to hold mom’s canned food. Guess who started canning 😊.

I started pressure canning about 10 years ago. It was a natural progression from homesteading and food prepping. I’m 65 now. Don’t know what took me so long. My dad bought me a pressure canner when I was 20. I didn’t know how to use it and no one in my family who ever canned food was alive anymore! I threw it out when I moved cross country. Duh. Now I have 3 pressure canners. Every poultry carcass becomes broth. I just took the leap to can potatoes and pumpkin purée. We have been buying canned purée for our dog. I have 3 free pumpkins sitting on my porch and processed 2 already. I also can leftover soups and stews. I have so much ready food in my pantry now. I love it.

The best part of canning is that first snow storm. My husband brags to his co workers about the food room in the basement. When they are rushing to leave work and stop for groceries, he just laughs. There response - what are you going to do? He says well it depends on my wife. We have everything we need in the basement. We have a freezer of meat and a room filled with veggies. We could have anything, soup stew, casserole. Steak, chops and baked potatoes, anything. We won't be eating pizza and fast food all weekend.

Here's my favored processing - buy another chest freezer. Cut the stem end off of big Roma tomatoes, double up all those bread sacks you keep - fill and lay flat in a chest freezer. Keep stacking. Take a sack out mid winter. Dump them in the sink . use the sprayer w/ hot water. The skins slide right off them I sauce them in the winter when we can use the stove heat in the house. 1,000 X less messy. And the saucing in the winter makes the house smell good. Or knock how many tomatoes you need for soups or chilis.

I learned from Becky at Acre Homestead that if you strain off some of the juice and jar it as your tomatoes are cooking down, you get two products for the time of one and your sauce gets thick more quickly! Definitely doing that next time!! Thin juice for cooking rice or making soup stock is awesome to have! Just can it too!

While this is all common sense, very few people focus on preparing ourselves and the homes before canning. The less distracted we are by in the adjoining spaces, the more productive we are. This actually goes without saying on most projects but especially with canning. Thanks for reminding us of the importance of being well prepared in advance of canning day. This is a great lesson for new canners.

I unfortunately learned the hard way to wear shoes while canning. I was branching tomatoes in a pot with a pasta strainer insert. When I quickly put that full strainer back in the boiling pot just wearing socks, it sloshed up and over the pot giving me a third degree burn on the top of my foot. Many many days and Dr. Visits later I was okay. Lesson learned!

I did something similar with refried beans, but while wearing canvas sneakers w a loose tongue. The beans slid out of the pan as i mashed, landed on my foot, the tongue allowed beans to pool up in one area. I rushed to take my shoe off and my skin was already thin, red and bubbled with a huge blister. In that instance, barefoot wouldve almost been better. I need steel toed hip waders with my lack of coordination.

Chelsea, I have heard that over the years, the tomatoes that we can have been modified and the acidity of said fruit are inconsistent. That is ,not as acid as the old stock... That is why we have been adding a little lemon juice to the process. My grandmother taught me that back 40 years ago! 500 pounds of tomatoes, wow, you must see them in your sleep! Best~k

In Germany we usualy do waterbath canning goods in Weck-jars. According to the Weck canning book, which is literaly the Canning-bible does not require for any additional acid in tomato sauce or canned plain tomatos. This ist common sense since around 1900. To keep it extra Safe, you could just use a pH test strip.

Great video, Chelsea. I love the way you think. Fyi, I started pressure-canning tomatoes (skin on) without added acid a few years ago. These were grown in my garden, no pesticide sprays. I merely rinsed them in cool/warm water to remove dust and dirt, quartered them, cut out the stem base, and packed them into jars. I, too, questioned the logic of adding acid when canning under pressure and chose to ignore it. We have eaten some of these tomatoes over two years after canning -- and the last jar tasted as good as the first, with no ill effects. I've done this with Roma and Beefsteak tomatoes with equal success.

Lots of good tips even for less enormous canning days, thanks! An Italian friend taught me a trick for getting thicker sauce without cooking it down. Use a food mill or whatever method you like to turn the tomatoes into thin sauce. Let it sit overnight in the fridge. It will actually separate into 2 layers. Ladle the thick tomato sauce off the top, then can the remaining juice separately. Obviously, that won't work for hundreds of jars of sauce, but if you've got just a few gallons of thin sauce, it's a time saver.

OMG! Finally, someone who thinks like I do! I understand the need to add the lemon juice if you are water bath canning your tomatoes as the acid in tomatoes has changed over the years. However, I don't understand the science behind why you have to add lemon juice to tomatoes when pressure canning. Pressure canning kills everything in low acid foods. All I hear is "that's what the USDA recommends" and "just do it". But why would you do it when pressure canning tomatoes if you don't do it when canning beans or chicken or carrots, etc.

One thing that crossed my mind, and is an additional benefit of all of your hard work, is that you are taking a perishable commodity, that is price sensitive to inflationary pressures and locking that price in at the time of purchase. Your pantry is actually a savings account earning real interest directly proportional to inflation over the course of the following year, an absolutely brilliant hedge to inflation.

All I've ever added when I waterbath my tomatoes is the salt. I've been doing this way since 1962!! I learned from my grandma, and we tend to do as our teacher does, did. Haven't lost one yet. That was a lot of tomatoes. Loved the video ❤

You mentioned that ketchup is a big hassle to make. Presumably because it takes hours to boil it down. I don't can, but I have a theory (I'm a great theorizer 😉) that you could dehydrate/freeze-dry most of the tomatoes, mix them with a few raw ones and boil it for a short period. Do you think that would work? I'd love to see you experiment with it. Great video as always (wow, such good editing :) ) and your stamina is impressive.

It works. I cook the ketchup for an hour to mix the flavors good. I also add extra spices so is full flavored after I add my cheaters tomatoes(freeze-dried and powdered tomatoes). I would not make ketchup if I couldn't do this. I also use cheaters powder for tomato paste

I freeze dry slic ed . they are so tasty,but when they are tossed into soup they just disintegrate really add to the soup. I also snitch some some for a snack. I usually process 5 bushel of tomatoes. When they start to ripen in the garden I gather them, blanch and peel, and put in a gallon. Zip lock and put in freezer. On a day in November I get them all out and put in my huge cooking pot and them make sauce and then it all tastes the same. When all the kids were home we had salsa cook offs. The older kids made their own salsa and then they invited friends over to snack and judge. All the leaves in the table big bags of chips in the middle and let the fun begin. Made long-lasting memories❤

Great work! When I bulk can a lot of tomato sauce, I do the same as you - wash and core, leave skin on - but I run the tomatoes through the Vitamix before cooking. It’s much easier to blend when it’s not hot and the sauce reduces nicely.

WOW! I started organic gardening and canning in 2009. I am totally dedicated and addicted to both! They keep my right brain clicking, constantly solving problems and coming up with new crops to grow and veggies to can..... and then the rewards! We are empty nesters, so thank goodness I don't have to do huge volumes like you. Love your style, presentation, great directions and comments. I have one other friend who cans jelly and gardens but that's it. Sad none of my other friends are canning. But they sure do admire my dedication and enjoy some of the benefits. Great great video!!!!!!! Love the wood on the kitchen ceiling too. I wish I had gotten into this younger. If we were in our 40's....I'd say LET'S go HOMESTEAD! But in our late 60's I'm delighted to have a HUGE back yard that provides all the space I really need. (and a big front yard I'm tempted to spread into) LOL! Keep up these videos!!! You have another follower!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could make tomato juice with the liquid at the top of your pot. Just a thought. I make spicy juice with hot sauce, some with lime juice, some with salt and black pepper and some with fresh basil and marjoram. My son loves it. 31 dozen pints of juice on my tomatos last summer. The harvest sucks this year in Edmonton, too. Love your channel. ❤

My best guess is that the time they give you for pressure canning is to process the tomato sauce faster but would not kill the botulism spores if the tomatoes are not acidic enough. Plus the nutritional content would probably go down with extra processing.

Found youu today, on a day I'm processing ONE box of tomatoes! I made 5 quarts of marinara and almost 4 qts (5 pints, 5 halfs) of blended style salsa. I use my PC as a steam canner. I'm less than a year at canning and i have yet to water bath bc I learned I can steam can in my PC saving water & time. Plus I have a very small kitchen. Tomorrow will be more meat canning. I've leaned more than toward single ingredient jars. I am sure I'm not the only one amazed at your results! Praise God you have helpers! Many Blessings from Deborah in West Virginia!

But I am having fun trying new recipes and canning things I’ve never done before. I did a jar of tomato jam just for the fridge and found it very like a spicy catsup. Ended up using it to make some very tasty baked beans. I’ll probably can two or three pints for the winter. As always really enjoy your videos!

Balsamic vinegar is a nice tasty change to lemon juice. Just add more cause 5% acidity is less than acidity level of bottled lemon juice. But for a few jars of salsa or bruschetta , is a nice change.

New subscriber here! I’ve got to say, your efforts on your property upkeep, gardening, canning, etc is so motivational! As a fellow Canadian (Southern Ontario), and a new mom myself, I’d love to hear about your homeschooling journey. How you got started in it, and how you choose which curriculum to follow, how you incorporate homesteading into your lessons. I think that’d be a very interesting video for a snowy winter day. It’s all so overwhelming to look through the various curriculum options, especially the lack of Canadian written ones. Thanks, and keep up that great work! You’re such a good role model for your kiddos!
