I'm glad you redid this video, probably a lot of people missed the other one. Thanks to you and Kneady (Heather) I love having home canned celery on the pantry shelf. My fridge always freezes veggies and over the years has cost me so much money in wasted celery. No more...now it is waiting for me when I want it. Plus hubby isn't too fond of it and with it already cooked and softened I can add just enough for some good flavour without the crunch factor alerting him. Thank you, Bev!

Thank you so much for this! More than 30 years ago I canned celery, carrots and onion together and water bathed it. I didn't know much about canning then, but it didn't kill us:). Not too long ago I was looking for the time for processing celery in a pressure canner and found out that you shouldn't can celery. I didn't understand because you can add it to recipes. I'm glad you did this because I'm gonna can some now. I missed having it handy.

Bev, you need to check out a celery video... Out Little Homestead, Canning Cream of Celery Soup. I thought it would be good to have on hand for recipes-- but she saved some for supper, too! My thoughts--Eww!!! But she's right-- it's fabulous!!! I canned some 3x, and we've eaten every jar as soup for a meal. I've never used any in another recipe-- it's been too precious, we had to eat it instead! Lol. It's DELICIOUS! Give it a try. 😂 ❤

You need to face that fear. I also was afraid of pressure canners so I just hot bathed everything. I thought it would explode or something🤯. There are some rules to using a pressure canner but the lid locks and it has vents and it is impossible to explode. There are also electric canners. On Rose Red's channel she demonstrates using an electric canner. Watch these women canning channels and the more knowledge you get you will become more confident.

Canning lid shortage? Here's an alternative: I just came across this channel yesterday and think this may be an answer to prayers and this lid shortage. I do not normally use tattler type lids but this is genius. I do not know her but her method works using the seals and not the tattler type lids. Short video 5:36. I really like the metals lids and using the Tattler seals lets me continue to use my lids. I understand the seals are good for at least 6 uses, solving the shortage issue for me and I hope you too. I just purchase 100 in bulk of each size from Tattler and they shipped the same day. I plan on vacuum sealing the ones I do not need until I do hopefully keeping them from degrading from the elements. i think the Tattlers are better for tomato and high acid canning. Here is her info, she shows how this works: Kili’s Kitchen: Aug 15, 2020 How I open metal lids to prevent damage and reuse them - even after the seal on the lid itself is compressed by using Tattler/Harvest Guard seals.

I don’t know what they do at the national center for food preservation. I have written to them and asked them questions and not gotten answers back. Except to tell me they don’t answer questions on the weekend. And then never answer my question on the week day either. But if a lot of people are trying to can celery and the National Center is wasting their time telling them that they can’t because it’s never been tested, why don’t they just test it. It seems to me that they only approve things that were tested many years ago. I don’t think anybody’s doing any new testing. I don’t even know if there’s anybody in that office. Maybe they’re sitting at home. Too many people are trying things on their own because nobody is testing them in the national center. They do refer to a lot of Balls recipes. That makes me wonder.
