Today we are canning corn! I've never canned corn before so I didn't know if I'd like to prepare it as a raw pack or hot pack, I'm bringing you along to show you all the details!

2 suggestions.. 1) when you cut the corn off the cob, then turn your knife 90° to the cob and scrape the cop to " milk" the juices out of it.2) when hot packing..use all that huice..that's the best part! That's what make creamed corn

Great comparison for me. I’ll do raw pack next week thanks. A tip: those corn cobs are what I’m after, the canned corn is a side for me. Corn stock, canned, is an incredible pantry staple for soups, sauces, etc. there are several you tubers with recipes.

Thanks for the video, I was mulling over the same issue. I think that when you showed us the comparison of pre cooked versus non, it was the white kernels that seemed to suffer the most colour deterioration. I love my Ball Blue Book and am very loyal to it, so thinking of canning creamed corn, the non blanched version appeals to me. As you said, it is a shame to have to discard the liquid produced by boiling the corn, only to have to replace it with kettle boiled water.

Enjoyed the video! I was wondering what the texture of your corn was like. Was there any crispness to it, or was it essentially like commercially canned corn, texture wise? I just watched a video of someone water bath canning corn, and in the comments, someone said they would never pressure can corn again because it just turns to mush during processing. I can't really see that pressure canning would be more likely to turn the corn to mush since it's only a 55 minute processing time vs the 3.5 hours shown in the water bath canning video. I am aware that water bath canning low acid foods, like corn, is considered an unsafe preservation technique.

Use a Bundt cake pan when cutting corn. You put the corn in the volcano middle part, use an electric knife and all the kernels fall into the cake pan, it's wicked smart. It isn't my idea but damn clever and you can cut a lot of corn without stoping and it’s all contained.

The "extra stuff" is the 'germ' out of the corn kernels. They probably came out in the pot you cooked the corn in before you hot packed it. If you had used the hot pack cooking water, you would have had more flavor, but would likely have had some of the germ from the hot water in your jars. The would have looked more like your raw packed jars then.

it's only necessary to use vinegar if you are canning things that contain fats. the vinegar cuts the fat, otherwise just water is fine. also anytime you use plastic with heat it degrades the plastic and it releases chemicals called dioxins that are carcinogens. best to use wood maybe? anyway I have never canned corn either so this is great info for those of us just starting with canning corn. like other viewers I would also like to know how these held up and which was better over time.

@FermentedHomestead3 жыл бұрын
Great question! My understanding is that corn is a low acid food and should be processed in a pressure canner to kill off bacteria, mostly botulism, that can survive standard boiling water temperatures (botulism loves the low acid and low oxygen environment of a canning jar). When food is processed in a pressure canner the temperatures go much higher (240+) and reaches the temperature needed to kill off botulism that could be present on foods. It’s a bit of Russian roulette to waterbath can corn. I highly recommend visiting nchfp.uga.edu where they have all the tested and approved methods for preserving foods, this is where I got the recipe for this video 💜
