Canning ColeSlaw

[@kathieponder7708]

Thank you so much for the instructional content. I especially enjoy your live, behind the scenes ❤

[@brendahere]

I was given 23 pounds of cabbage and made sauerkraut. Never made it before. Did two recipes. One hot water bathed and one fermenting. It will be fun to see how it turns out. If I get some more cabbage I will have to make your canned coleslaw. Thans for the video.

[@WillowsGarden]

Yum Bev, canned coleslaw is so good. I use cabbage, carrots, onions and green peppers when I can mine. It’s whatever you like. You’re a hard working woman Bev. Have a blessed day everyone ❤️🤗

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

❤❤❤❤

[@longarmsupplies]

Water bath, Yippee! I still haven't got the new valves into my ForJars canner...must get that done asap. Going to the farmers market tomorrow. My garden was a disaster this year due to me spending most of my summer helping my daughter getting the house she's moving into reno'd.

What a yummy treat to have in the pantry and I absolutely love that apron you were wearing 🌺🧡🌺🧡🌺🧡🌺

Thank you so much 🤗

❤I really enjoy the visits in the kitchen & “the behind the scenes”. It brightens my day to have everyone’s company. Bless you, Bev🙏Aloha🌺

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I'm so glad!

[@auntdayskitchen6315]

I never thought of canning coleslaw, but if you and me requires me to make sauerkraut when I have an abundance of cabbage. But I will have to try this. And if you grew up with a creamy slaw, when you open the jar, you could just add a little mayonnaise.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

That's what I did I just took the slaw out of the jar with a fork and let it drain and then added a bit of mayo

[@MaurenEckersley]

I love your videos, still catching up on a lot, but I noticed in one older one that you had frozen quarter pieces of cabbage for meals that you made and it worked out perfect

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes we did but I would rather have cabbage dehydrated are Camden coleslaw or canned with tomatoes

[@judykent5776]

I'm gonna make some as soon as I can get some cabbage. We love Coleslaw. Thank you!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Sounds great!

[@c-shellsurfhawaii2413]

🌺Aloha, Bev! The coleslaw looks so tasty. I miss my mom’s coleslaw. You put some much hard work & love in to your work & it shows. Have a blessed evening 😊

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thank you so much!😘

[@kandi8640]

I made canned coleslaw last summer. I really love putting it on hotdogs or burgers. I also have that slicer under a different name. It’s the only one my family trusts me with because of my fingers. Lol. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Sounds great!

[@Monkchip]

I didnt know that you can "can" coleslaw. Thanks once again for showing. ❤

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

You are so welcome!

[@Jomama02]

Well when those huge cabbages come in this fall, I will be testing out a batch of this! This is my favorite type of coleslaw! I've got 3 medium hot peppers on hand so maybe I'll try those in a small batch. As long as they aren't set your mouth on fire peppers. Lol!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

After how we tried it he asked how many pints I had when I told him I canned 12 he said you better make more LOL

[@kathieponder7708]

❤nice work island

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thanks 😁

[@TheCornerLot-t8r]

Thank you! I've canned an obscene amount of veggies this year, so this recipe will make a great side dish to compliment them. I'm definitely going to can this and bean salad for sides this winter. ❤️

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Great idea!

[@mollysmith6055]

This was fun to watch, especially after being treated to seeing the behind-the-scenes. I haven't canned coleslaw since my mom was alive, she enjoyed it. Hubby isn't a veggie eater and I can't eat a whole jar of coleslaw myself so I just get to enjoy seeing yours. Can't wait to see the zucchini video whenever you upload it. Thank you for always being so informative and inspirational, Bev.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Whatever you don't eat in the jar put the jar in the fridge for next time

[@Justamomdoingthestuff]

So much work but well worth it in the end. 💕

[@juliamason8393]

I love to eat the cabbage core. It has to be peeled of the tough pieces of cabbage stems but once it is clear, it is very tasty with a little salt. Cabbage is one of my favorite vegetables.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I'll have to try that! I do the same with broccoli I peel the stems and eat the stems

[@Lenasquilting]

We love canned coleslaw. Well done Bev.

[@LauraMacMillan-el2kc]

Another great video, Bev! If you have a silicone baking mat to place between your slicer and your island countertop, it will prevent your slicer from sliding around on you. The mat is flexible so you can just pick the whole thing up and just pour your sliced veg into your bowls when you're done. And it's super easy to clean the silicone mat up afterwards! I bought mine to roll my pizza crusts out on ( it's pre-marked into several different sizes of perfectly round concentric circles,) but the longer I have it the more uses I find for it.

[@LauraMacMillan-el2kc]

Forgot to mention: I wouldn't slice (with a knife) directly onto the silicone mat. They are pretty durable but I don't think they'd hold up to that for very long. :)

[@user-xb7sj2uk4u]

Didn't know coleslaw could be canned.Learned something new. Thank you Ma'am.

[@lindabopp6579]

Thank you Bev this is a great way to have coleslaw on hand. I'd cut back on the sugar a bit for my taste. God Bless 🙏❤🙏

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I pour the syrup off and then add Mayo when I'm going to use it

[@judybrooks5711]

I have watched this twice. Very intriguing and oh, the crunch!! Got to try it. Bev you have taught me so much. Thank you. I did not see you rinse the cabbage...or do we not rinse? Thank you for your teaching and your response.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I didn't rinse it I just took it out of the jar with a fork and let it drain before putting the mail on

Bev, can I use red cabbage? I've got 12 heads in the garden I need to do something with.

Hello friend wow first time I seen pickled coleslaw fine job hugs and love

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thank you so much

[@BelovedLeah]

Oh!I wish I’d known this in the spring when I could buy bulk cabbage from the farm $10.00 for case of 16 heads. Cabbage will be available here in the fall. Woo hoo! I will do this then. Always looking for ways to preserve cabbage. THANK YOU MRS V😉😋🫶

I loves my wife's fresh Cole Slaw. I would love to taste this kind!

[@lifewiththevolfies]

It's crunchy and delicious

[@suzannegormley1504]

Hello from Oregon How long should the jars set on the shelf before you can open the jar?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Play should be up there 2 weeks but I opened my jar in under a week and it was delicious

[@sunshineacresdreaming8351]

I'd really like to know where you got the chopper.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

It was sent to me as a gift. Pretty sure you can get it on Amazon or even at Walmart

[@tonjabock3289]

How do you prepare the coleslaw once you remove it from jar

[@thewoodenspoon9679]

Beautiful Bev! I’ve never seen that done. If there is a way you will find it!

[@midwestern925]

This is in my list to do yet . . .

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

[@user-hq3gn5xy3m]

Saved this video. What a deal! I made a different recipe with purple cabbage and the taste wasn’t there. I found out it was the purple cabbage. Ty for your recipe will try that with green cabbage. And for sure dehydrate, since it rehydrates so beautifully! Like fresh cabbage. Why doesn’t everyone do this?😊

[@brendagale5595]

Sounds good

[@angelal6700]

Yep, those mandolins are dangerousse. Mom sliced tip of finger almost completely off. That was last year. And can openers aren't much safer. When I was kid, she took hold of a lid from a can, and that jagged edge sliced into the web of flesh between thumb and forefinger. 🙄

My favorite coleslaw EVER!❤

[@valjalava1951]

Good job

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thanks

[@susanorris8838]

Looks good. How crispy is the slaw....just wondering.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I will do a follow up in a week or so.

[@bettyanngoulet3411]

Can I swap Apple Cider Vinegar for white vinegar?

[@lifewiththevolfies]

Absolutely

[@BelovedLeah]

What is the texture of mixture upon opening? Is it soft like sauerkraut or still a bit crunchy?

[@hummingwind8869]

Hi Bev, couple of questions, did you rinse all the salt off the veg? Also, is this a very sweet coleslaw? Thank you as always, you are a gem. 💕

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes I rinsed The cabbage before putting it in the pot. Yes it is suite with a vinegar bite.

[@hummingwind8869]

@@OurHalfAcreHomestead thanks Bev! 💕

[@debbiealtman5373]

Ok looks goid

[@citygirlhomestead]

do you just drain the juice and make cole slaw dressing before serving?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Apparently you can eat it as is or drain it and add any kind of creamy dressing like Mayo

[@donnarichey144]

Thank you have to try this. Can I use the steamer doing this? or do you advise not to use it? Can I do in qts, I have pints I did, but have a large bowl and want to get done was going to do qts. Is that not a good idea? I did see you said about qts.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes, absolutely

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes you can but I prefer boil bath

[@cookiegirl2cookie197]

Did I miss it or did you rinse the cabbage and onions before canning the coleslaw?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Yes it was rinsed

[@karensearcy3141]

Hi Bev! What do you use canned coleslaw with? I’ve never heard of canning it.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

As a side dish or a pickle. You can rinse it off and add Mayo if you want a creamier one.

[@karensearcy3141]

@@OurHalfAcreHomestead Thanks! I’m gonna try it. Sounds so good!

[@veramcglaughn5663]

When you open the cold slaw do you drain it and add mayo or just eat as is?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Either or

[@47retta]

I've never heard of cooked coleslaw!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Me either until last year apparently you can eat it straight from the jar or you can drain it and add Mayo

[@jeanphillips1030]

I never heard of canned cole slaw. Toi much sugar in the brine.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

It can be rinsed off in mayo added
