Canning Hamburger Soup

[@momsmanykards364]

Rosered Homestead on KZbin did a very good test on several electric canners, using a probe that measures the temps inside the jar of food to make sure the canners were producing high enough temps for the food being processed was in the kill zone for the amount of time required. The Nesco 9.5 qt. Passed this test. I would trust it. The lady testing the canner is a professor as well and follows canning procedures safely.

Hi Colleen, I’m 72 yr’s old & watching you cook reminds me of my Aunts & Nana when I’d watch them cook , I grew up in a 3 family home in Brooklyn,NY all family, I know we’re miles apart but it seems we were cut from the same cloth some how, same recipes, same methods, I truly enjoy your videos so much it truly brings me back. Thank you

I just found your videos, and I do enjoy them! We seniors have got to stick together so we can lead the younger sisters in canning! I am looking for meals in a jar mostly, because I live alone and do not like cooking for only myself unless it is in big canning batches! I really enjoy your recipes, please keep them coming!

Thank you for your wonderful videos. We live in the White Mountain area of Arizona, elevation 5,660 feet. So it is very important that any low acid food we can must be processed at 15 pounds.

I love the tomato paste in a tube. I always struggled with that to do with the remainder of the can when almost every recipe calls for only a couple of tablespoons of paste.

If you have a dehydrator, dehydrate your tomato paste; then powder the dried pieces as needed into powder. Rehydrates amazingly!

I wish people would stop saying it is not approved. They DO NOT test or approve canners, they have a list of standards/guidelines of safety features that a canner should have. Love your videos.

[@markmanning7882]

Although, to be clear I am referring to the Nesco and Carey Canners, not regular pressure cookers.

[@oursilvermoments6028]

Hello Mark, Thanks so much for following along. When I first started sharing Nesco canning recipes I had several people tell me they were glad they were not members of my family because they thought I would kill them. I always felt that a company would not release a product for large markets if they hadn't tested it for after. Almost two years into using the canner Rose Red Homestead, a scientist, did her own independent testing of the canner proving it reaches the temperatures and pressure needed for safe canning. I am happy that you are enjoying following along. Best wishes, Colleen

[@brendaseader1669]

Colleen, I've just discovered your KZbin videos, and enjoy them so much! Thank you for your thoughts on Carey Nesco...I have used one for the last 4 or 5 years, and appreciate it for the same reasons you gave. People here in US are in some cases, so scared of using one for canning; in fact, I've gotten booted from a couple of FB groups for encouraging folks to try one. Just finished 5 pts of dry pinto beans, and will be starting some "baked" beans this afternoon. Thank you for the time you spend to help people learn this very useful and economical craft! Can't wait for your next recipe.....

I discovered your videos yesterday when looking for a pizza dough recipe. Your bread machine videos were very impressive. I bought mine three years ago, used it once, then put it away.

Wow... I don't know if I've ever been first,lol... I love having soup on the shelf, such an easy meal. I think you would know more than anyone if your jars are good and sealed. I've heard good thing good things about the Nesco canner. Everyone should do their own research on everything they can. What's good for someone might not be good for me or vice versa. I use the paste that comes in the tube. It's so easy. Especially when you only need a few tablespoons. Wow that actually went pretty quick.... I qualify on the lazy side every now and then. But I don't mind canning broths for how many days it takes and have it for the year. I do both? lol We haven't really run out of anything here. When I see something I but it. The flats for sure. Dollar General had them I picked up 12 boxes. I thought that canner only held 4 pts.. That great is holds the 5. It holds 4 qts right? Nope my butter is on the counter also... I love cooking with the butter milk. Add you honey to your butter milk it will mix in easier. I have those same collins glasses your cutting the biscuits with..lol. I love drinking juice out of them. The biscuits look great! Have a wonderful time at your daughters. And thank you again Colleen

I do you like beef stock when I making beef and noodles. Also, I like the beef stock when I am making beef stroganoff. Answering your question about butter, we keep our butter on the counter that were use it out of. I do have several sticks in the refrigerator. Just so I have them stable enough so when I want to put it on on the counter, I can. 😊

Hi Colleen , your soup and Biscuits look delicious ! And I think you could even exchange the Hamburger meat for ground Chicken or even Sausage meat and make different versions of the soup snd if using Sausage maybe add chopped Kale or Spinach to the soup ! What do you think ? I thought of the Chicken because my son has Gout and isn’t able eat red meat or any processed foods because it will throw him into a flair up with his Gout and I don’t know if your familiar with this disease but it causes intense pain snd swelling in the affected areas that usually last for 1-2 weeks ! There is medicine that can be taken daily to help keep down the flair ups , but my son is allergic to some if the ingredients in the medicines so he can’t take any of them !! So I will make your delicious soup for him using Chicken and I know it will be delicious !! Thank you again for your delicious recipes , God bless ! ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈

There are so many things here in the US that have been used, some for generations, that are not "USDA" approved. These range from foods to jars and lids - We call this "Rebel Canning."

By watching your videos, I finally made the investment and bought a Nesco electric canner. A few years ago I purchased the Presto stove top canner. I still have not been able to use it...I am renting and we have a glass-top stove that when I called to see if it was ok to use the Presto canner on it, they didn't recommend doing so since it is an older model stove. I was looking into getting a portable stove burner to use the presto canner on, but I decided on getting the electric canner because it can do smaller batches and I don't have a lot of kitchen storage space. Im planning on buying a house in the next 6-8 months and want a kitchen with a BIG walk in pantry to can to my hearts content. Thank you for posting very informative videos. I look forward to starting my canning adventure.

Could you please video canning hamburger? I have seen other videos pertaining to this, but not using a pressure canner. Maybe combining hamburger and sausage?

[@susandorry6149]

Really enjoyed your video and see you don't warm your jars or lids like I've seen other canners do, is that because of the Nesco canner? I also think I'm going to try your Hamburger Soup, Thank you

Hello Susan, I pack hot into hot and cold into cold but will be more mindful to show the whole process in the future. Cheers, Colleen

I've never seen tomatoe paste in a tube. How perfect is that! I just learned the Amish can al denta noodles in their soup. I'm going to try that. They water bath everything even meat. They have never heard of the FDA.

[@oursilvermoments6028]

There are many canners out there that still water bath everything because that is the way they learned to do it from their mothers and grandmothers. Cheers, Colleen

I love my Nesco & my daughter bought one as well. Carey made them prior and they are now one company. Rose Red Homestead here on YT did a study on it and a few others. It was most reliable. (She’s a scientist/ college professor with multiple PhD’s. So I choose to trust her science.) I have always had good luck with mine and I’m still alive :)

[@oursilvermoments6028]

Hello, I love my Nesco as well and have a great deal of admiration for Rose Red Homestead and how they present the science. Best wishes, Colleen

I use distilled water when I can and have no foggy jars. Just a tip!

[@ejb3488]

I just add vinegar

You didn't wash the celery first?

I have a couple of questions. 1) Does your Nesco manual say what the internal temperature is while canning ?? I have an 8 qt. Instant Pot & I need to compare the temps of the 2 cookers. 2) what produce/meats do you consider not suitable/safe for dry canning ??

[@2200chuck]

1. The temperature in all "canners", including the NESCO, gets up to 240 degrees F, hot enough with time to kill all spoiling bacteria in food. 2. The Instant Pot is *NOT* a canner. It is a pressure "cooker" and never gets hot enough to kill spoiling bacteria. It has 3 temperature settings: 2A. Low - 180-190 degrees F 2B. Med - 190-200 degrees F 2C. High - 200-210 degrees F None of these are high enough to kill the natural bacteria that is in food that can cause the contents to spoil. Don't try to do pressure canning in a pressure cooker. You only get yourself and anyone else sick that eats from those jars.

Its the FDA is organization that your talking about. Your correct they just haven’t tested, but all reviews and videos I’ve seen about the canner are positive and good.

Hey Colleen I sure am enjoying your Nesco electric canner videos. Do you have a French onion soup recipe you could share with us? Thank you for all the work you do to show us how to use this canner.

[@oursilvermoments6028]

Hello Reta, I haven't tried french onion soup yet but I will definitely put it on the list of things to try. Cheers, Colleen

[@joannevans8278]

The Ball Canning book has a good recipe on page290

What is that water or going to the bathroom sound in the background plz. I hv been enjoying ur utubes. Thank u ur voice is very relaxing.

[@oursilvermoments6028]

Hello Barbara, I had to go back and watch it myself to be able to tell you. It was the meat browning in the pan. But at anytime you could here the furnace/AC or the dishwasher running. I get them started and forget to shut them off for filming. All the best, Colleen

[@Susan.I]

So you cook it before canning it. Is that because of the texture of the ground beef?

[@Mickey-jn8hz]

If you could tell me where you got your canner and if they are still available because they are nowhere to be seen here in Florida. I would appreciate it very much.

[@oursilvermoments6028]

I live in Canada and purchased mine through wayfair.ca im not sure how to find them in the US but will have a look. Cheers, Colleen
