Bingeing on your videos and the accompanying ads with 3 purposes in mind. Revenue for you. Knowledge for me. And having you on the screen keeps you and your family on my heart and in my prayers. God's blessings mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually on all of y'all.

[@petethemeat9010]

This is Mrs Pete. I’m on that same wagon. I’ve watched some a few times.

[@MidwestGirl]

Binge-watching The Kneady Homesteader videos to show my girl Heather some love! Keeping you all in my prayers.

[@blessedbloominghomestead9134]

That's how I'm spending the day also 💖

[@Alexis_9339]

Watching multiple videos today. Hope you’re having a progressive day in therapy! Praying for you all.

[@jillsnyderhughes4891]

I'm a new subbie, and I'm binge watching too! May all of you heal body and mind and the memories of love be a warm blanket of healing.

[@keepingourhome7271]

I so much agree with ‘the healing of homemade’. An example always in my heart, my daughter-in-law & son lost their baby just days before the due date, she was in so much pain, you can only imagine, she didn’t want to do anything, at first. One day I had her over and we just worked in my kitchen, cooking, talking, being quiet together, just spent all day together. She told me, later, that day helped her turn a corner towards healing, and getting back to her love of cooking for her family. So, my hope is for Heather to find herself, again, kneading her breads, feeding her family, learning to smile again, learning to laugh again, learning to embrace life again. Hugs.

[@carolbarthold3839]

Praying for a speedy recovery Heather! God bless you and your family!

[@brendastrandrigdon6201]

Onions are what makes the world go round in flavor, I don't know what we would do without them in our food.😍

[@susanbaker8130]

This is pretty painless duty, learning all of Heather’s yummy cooking ideas! God bless your healing! Soon you’ll be cooking, growing and creating again.

OHHHHH MYYYYYYYY guess who has a 50 pound bag of onions just waiting for something that looks this AMAZING!!!!!

woohoo! slay it, Susan! 😆👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@jillbritton2676]

At thanksgiving I boil the turkey neck with onions,garlic,celery,carrots to make giblet gravy. I take the onion,carrots,and celery and put them in my vita mix to purée then add it to either the gravy or stuffing. There is a surprising amount of flavor still in these bits after all that boiling

[@tinacostner3069]

Good Morning ☀️ just going to stream your videos today. Probably learn new stuff and definitely get ideas for what I’m canning this year. I’ve made the jam it’s amazing. Need to try the onion stock. Have a blessed day and praying for your speedy recovery. ❤️

[@morehn]

What is weird about that? Everyone loves cooking onions. I heard of someone who used to saute onions before having guests to make the house smell good.

[@jackxthexreaper736]

😂 I love you ladies but you’re weird. I’ll cook with onions but I dislike them so much. Something About the texture. I don’t like them any way... raw, sautéed, fried, cooked.... I do like Funyuns though!

[@joanhenschel3511]

You make me want to can! Your videos are so well presented, and it's super exciting to watch. I trust your therapy is working wonders, Heather.

[@vallis1469]

Onions....along with garlic, are food from heaven! Thanks for the video. Like you, I'm addicted to canning. It is the most empowering and satisfying time in my life. xoxoxo

[@veronicawalters4534]

Omg I make a caramelized onion and balsamic hummus and it takes forever to carmelize the onions and make the balsamic reduction. THIS JAM WOULD BE PERFECT!! Add a couple spoonfuls to my regular hummus recipe!!! What a wonderful (and delicious) shortcut!! I'm so going to make this!! Thank you!! 💜💜💜

[@kauaipeg5478]

I made this and gave for Christmas at first everyone made a face, then they got brave and tasted it!! WOW they loved it and I love it myself.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

😆👏🏻 that is awesome!!!!!! It’s such a unique gift!

[@pegpeg3939]

Ok..I'm going to try it.i grew a whole lots onions this year

[@stephaniehill655]

I don't know if you are still getting your message on this video, but if you do...I made this for a jelly sale for my church!! And oh my sister, it was a big hit! Everyone loved it. Thank you for sharing this recipe and God's blessing over you and your family my dear sweet sister in Christ.

[@rlynnmiller5485]

Oh my, I made this jam this morning and I couldn’t wait. Just had some on toast smothered with cream cheese. It is AMAZING! I’m going to get more ingredients and can some more for us and have enough for gifts. Next time will mix kinds of onions. That’s a great idea! Don’t bother answering this just continue to rest and heal😘😘😘

[@michelles5765]

Made this for the second time today. We love it! Have had it on meatloaf, porkchops and now ham! Thanks for sharing

[@WestVanMom]

Fabulous video. Made this a few years ago and just got back into canning recently. Just my two cents, but if people find the liquid to be too thin here’s what I’ve done: Strain onions from sauce; add to jars to 1 inch head space; add liquid to reach 1/4 head space and de bubble. Process normally. Worked well for me.

[@acountrylife]

Thanks for sharing how you use the onion jam and stock. It really gives me ideas 💡

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

😁👏🏻❤️

[@arizonamountainwoman3750]

I made this recipe and WOW!! It is now my favorite, and I put it on everything. Tried your meatloaf with the Onion Jam recipe and my husband loves it. Getting more onions to can more. Thank you! Oh, I also made your onion broth and both of these recipes will be on my pantry shelf from now on. Sending you strength and prayers every day. We love you!

[@terryflores2487]

Praying for you and your children and sending soft hugs. You are soooooo inspiring. I just canned up ten jars of the sweet onion Jam and started my onion broth. Now I just have to look for more room to store my canned products. Not much more room under my beds or in my closet. LOL. I wish I had a basement, but no such look in south Texas.

[@lorahargrove9710]

🤩1ove to try it it looks fabulous

Hi Heather, I hope you are well. I tried this recipe over this past holiday season, and it was a HUGE hit with my family! Continued blessings to you on your road to healing.

[@valh9858]

Thank you. I'm going to make this. It looks delicious. It would be great on a bacon grilled cheese sandwich. I love some sweet with salty.

[@dennismcatee1313]

After I watched this I went to aldi's. They had them. Thanks as I have been looking for one since I first saw you using it.

[@inapickle9153]

I just got a bunch of onions and my first though was, make onion broth. Then, I decided to make the onion jam along with the broth. I have a couple of roasters going with broth and I have a few pounds of diced onions ready to go for the jam. I am hitting up Aldi tomorrow for balsamic vinegar. Thanks for this post. Blessings 💕💕💕

[@cherylsigler]

YUMMY*** I NEED to try this with Rabbit and Lamb. Thanks so much little mamma🌻

[@sarahcontento9516]

Hi, Heather, I love when you turn on the camera. I would love to see you make the apple pie filling. I just made a strawberry pie filling and it is delicious. I also just got my first pressure canner and have been learning where my sweet spot on my stove is. I think I have it figured out and now I am ready to rock and roll. Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving me the courage to take the plunge. Being in the kitchen and sewing are very therapeutic for me.

[@BrendaC-cf7td]

Hi, bought onions from Costco for this . Can't wait to try it. I don't think it will last long here. Thank you for doing this video again. Best wishes.

The spots on onions could be mold or bugs. I use the brown peels for chicken soup if they're clean. Makes it nice and golden.

[@reeree6682]

Thanks for the heads up on the pan. I scored one today along with the skillet!

Heather, I just canned your Sweet Onion Jam and I can’t begin to Say How DELICIOUS it is!!! We had some beer battered fish and I used the Sweet Onion Jam on it and just about passed out! It elevated the fish and made me think of All the Fabulous Ways to use it in a dish! Thank You So Much bc I can’t wait to Try it on and with a lot of different things.

This is so good on a sharp white cheddar sandwich!

I made this for the first time about 4 months ago after watching your older video. It's amazing! I made 8 jars and I think there are only 2 left. Soon time to make more. I tried it this weekend as a glaze on a oven baked ham and boy was it delicious. Thanks for the updated video. ❤

One of my favorite sandwiches is leftover chuck roast, swiss cheese and onion jam made in to a panini. So good! Heather, have you seen any canning recipes for bacon onion jam? I have seen plenty of recipes for a single jar, but I want it on my shelves. It would have to be pressure canned for sure.

[@debbiekiehl9166]

Hi Heather! I have watched you for a long time via Roku where I couldn't subscribe or comment. So happy to finally have a laptop to connect on. I've gardened, canned and dehydrated food for my family for 43 years and still do. Enjoy your videos and enthusiasm for so much of what I also love doing. I even home schooled both of our children - back in the days before it was as common place as it is now. God bless you - keep up the good work - you're a great teacher and encourager.

[@carmalitayanock9584]

[@cindyjo9093]

I LOVE the Vidalia onion chopper.....it's good for a lot of veggies. I used to dread chopping onions!!! I've gotten mine at Bed Bath and Beyond. I buy 2 at a time now when mine get dull blades.

[@dizziechef9502]

I love Linda’s pantry too. She’s a survivor like me.

[@beckystahl5830]

OH MY!!! Give me a jar of this and a spoon and I could eat this right out of the jar! I made a batch of this yesterday which was my second attempt in the past 2 days. Unfortunately I burned the first batch while caramelizing the onions and had to go back to the store for more onions! Thank you, Heather for this recipe! Prayers for continued healing for you and your family! Merry CHRISTmas!!!

[@patriciaribaric3409]

I have to thank you for showing how you roasted cauliflower for mac n cheese. I wanted some pasta salad last week. I replaced the pasta with roasted cauliflower. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite!!!

Yes Aldi has the ceramic/cast iron pots again. I bought mine last year and I love it, but when I was in the store a couple days ago they had them again!!

[@mollysmith6055]

Oh how I wish hubby loved onions as much as me. :( I've made a batch of this but gave it as gifts along with a small sheet of ideas of how to use it. Your Aldi pan is so pretty and I bet it heats up like a dream being enameled cast iron. If your onion chopper ever goes on the fritz try this one from Amazon (sorry the font is so large, I don't know how to fix that) Vegetable Chopper Pro Onion Chopper by Bellemain Heaviest Duty. It is so much nicer than a standard Vidalia type chopper and easier on my hands since it is angled and has great attachments. I love how you give great basic instructions for canning during all your videos, Heather.

[@khouston1965]

Heather, I've been watching your canning videos for just a little while, this past year or so, but I absolutely LOVE watching you can!! You're always so happy & so informative. You're such a huge inspiration to me!! I've been wanting to know the answer to the butter questions that everyone keeps asking about. If the butter solidifies on top of the jars is it still ok to keep on your shelf for a while? Plus, I was wondering how much water you add to your pot for the Onion Stock & how long you cook it for? Do you simmer it for a while or simmer & boil? Or do you have a video that I haven't found on making this stock? I've never made homemade stock before & I would really love to make some very soon. Thanks again for all of your inspiration! I feel like you're a close friend, except I can't ask you questions when I want. 😢 Lol 😊

[@loramcclamrock5549]

😇Sounds delicious! Watching and praying for you and your family.❤❤

[@suellenw561]

I recently made a few jelly jars of the onion jam. The "syrup" is thicker than I thought it would be. Another time, I won't heat it so long or will add a little water. The "syrup" that was left is in the refrigerator. I've used it on the meat for several evening meals. Today was on pork steak. I didn't taste the vinegar but sure tasted the brown sugar. That was good because I don't care much for vinegars.
