Home Canned Salsa with Mrs Wages Mixes and Forjars lids.

[@debbiesheets5585]

I love the fact that you can use canned tomatoes! BTW, forjars is a game changer for me❤️

[@doloresterrell5334]

When I give a jar away of the Mrs wages ppl say how good the flavor is. I just say thank you and never say anything different 😊😊

[@Miss.C.]

That’s what I plan on doing. Thanks!

[@imaprepper1866]

Linda , I have made this Mrs. Wages salsa and my family loves it. It’s the only way to go. I use my own tomatoes from my garden.

[@kyfaithhavenfarm9228]

I love using this in my home canned chili beans. Gives them awesome flavor and no need to add other spices. No need to add the vinegar as it will be pressure cooked with the beans.

[@carolynmoody9460]

great idea how much do you use per jar?? thanks

[@liancabastian6732]

That's a great idea, thanks for sharing 😊

[@kisefac9163]

How long do you pressure cook?

[@melissaholamon1699]

I make this same salsa, but I take my immersion blender and pulse it a few times, leaving some chunks mixed with some smooth.

[@ljmike5519]

I have heard that the longer you wait to open a jar the flavor intensifies. But I'm definitely making this a lot as the possibilities is exciting. Blessings

[@welschicaWA]

So appreciative that you did the math. I just scratch my head when I try to calculate that stuff. Great information all around, thank you 🙏🏻

[@ds333trueloveforever5]

A few years ago I tried this just for fun. WOW I was surprised. I now have this in my pantry. I still have a few jars of the name brand stuff, but I'll probably be giving them away. In my opinion, Mrs Wages, by far, beats the store bought stuff, HANDS DOWN.

[@tarabishop8499]

This is so good, love Mrs Wages salsa…thank you❤❤❤

[@kathleenelliot5305]

Sorry you had that learning experience. I watched your other video on canning Mrs Wages salsa and tried it. I opened a jar today, diced some fresh onion and chopped cilantro in in and it was really good. Didn't really like the taste right after it cooked. Was a good surprise. Thank you.

[@WillowsGarden]

Even though you had to start the processing over, it looks good and easy. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed evening!

[@RebelGirlNC]

I discovered this salsa last year and we love it. I bought a large container on Amazon and bought tomatoes to make more this winter.

[@maryannbergeron9531]

Oh wow! I can’t believe you had to start reprocessing again. Great lesson! Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@maryannbergeron9531]

I am so excited you made this salsa. My friend gave me a jar of her Mrs Wages Salsa at Christmas and I couldn’t believe how awesome it was. I just found a package of Mrs Wages at the grocery store and grabbed it. I thought I would have to wait until my garden came in but now I’ll be buying diced tomatoes and make myself a batch!!! Awesome video and explanation especially the headspace using the tool. ❤️❤️❤️

[@karenbell9598]

LOOKS YUMMY! I LOVE MRS WAGES

[@jonsims5494]

Just made some Salsa with this product... great mix!!! turned out amazing!

[@astone3871]

My “sharpies” and they are the actual “sharpie” brand wash off in the water bath canner. So I have started using a paint marker if something needs labeled before processing.

[@vickiegossett7214]

Thank you so much, I am not sold on the ball waterbath canner. I find the stove top is faster. Mrs. Wages products are wonderful.

[@deborahrusignuolo7612]

Looks delicious and so simple even for a beginner canner like myself. Thank you for sharing

[@chrisb5391]

They look delicious. I think I will give that a try. Thanks for sharing.

[@SueD.]

Thanks for sharing how to do this with canned tomatoes. Please update us on your canner.

[@LisaLindenmuth-sl2sz]

I was wondering how long you can the juice left from draining the tomatoes. I loved the idea that you had, but I wasn't sure how long in the waterbath canner. Thank you. Loved your videos!

[@maggieparrish8438]

I love Mrs Waages last yr did 60 pints down to last 4.

[@cindyupton7357]

I have never used. Mr wages. Till I’ve seen these. But I’m going to try the salsa

[@katehouser3683]

That looks easy and delicious. Can't wait to try it.

[@pikecreekfarm]

I have used this for years. We all enjoy it so I stick with it! Lol

[@CookingwithCatLover0330]

I love these videos. Thank you!

[@maggieparrish8438]

Love you videos.

[@philipbailey7430]

Didn't know I could skip sterilizing jars. It looks really good

[@TheOrganizedPineapple]

I love salsa, have never made my own!

[@jessiegibson9023]

Good video thanks looks good

[@KSOKrafts]

I can this all the time. its my husbands favorite.

[@donnaingle1359]

Looks yummy

[@iartistdotme]

Great instructions - and you used a coated enamel pan to cook tomato sauce! Extra points to you.

[@liancabastian6732]

Looks soo delicious 😋 thanks for sharing. I have the same one, keep us posted

[@jam7453]

What are your suggestions for the most reliable lids? Kerr, Ball, FORJARS, TATTLER, HARVEST GUARD, etc? I’ve heard that some don’t provide a good seal. Any real difference between utilizing them in either the water bathing or pressure canning methods? Also any best suggestions when taking off the lids from a sealed jar to prevent damage so one can reuse them. In your experience, how many times are you able to reuse them. I would imagine the rings would last indefinitely as long as they do not get damaged; EX: dented or rusted. Thank you in advance & thank you so much for what you do & helping provide the knowledge & experience that you have gained!!! Keep it up!!!

[@2leelouCreates]

I've used them all. They are all good lids. However, for one time use lids I'm currently using the Forjars lids. I appreciate that they made a great effort to get lids out during the shortage when it didn't seem that other companies did. Their lids are very good quality and I've never had a fail with them. There is not a way to remove any one use lid to make them good for a second use to can with. I put a big 'X' on them and use them for dehydrated or other things I store in jars.As for the reusable lids like Tattler, I have used them for a long time and they work great too. I like to mark the little gaskets with a sharpie marker so I know how many times I've used them. I hope this info helps you.

[@jam7453]

@@2leelouCreates Some have said that some lids don’t seal properly. Not sure if it’s the actual lids or the person not following proper procedures. As for the FORJARS lids makes sense that they’d be able to keep an ample supply forthcoming since they’re apparently made in China. Good tip to mark the gaskets, have already thought of doing that myself.

[@reginawoodside743]

Linda, Thank you for showing the canner mishap. Did you put new lids on for the second canning?

[@2leelouCreates]

Yes I did

[@carolinehatley9393]

Awesome video. Love, love, love your channel. You explain it in detail and make it look simple to the less experienced canners. Thank you.

[@m.walker7907]

I have used Mrs wages

[@gregjean130]

I just love your canning videos. Can you do Mrs Wages bread and butter sometime?

[@2leelouCreates]

I'll see about getting the cucumbers at the Farmer's market.

[@Judten1]

@@2leelouCreates Hello. When using mrs wages we don’t have to put citric acid in each jar?? Hope you see this comment please. ❤

[@2leelouCreates]

@Judten1 Mrs Wages has already added it. In some cases, the instructions will tell you to add vinegar or lemon juice or sugar or whatever additional ingredients may be required, but everything else is already added in the mix. They make it so easy.

[@Judten1]

@@2leelouCreates oh my gosh. I’m so sorry I need your help again. I’m horrid at math!! I have 30 cups of my tomatoes and I have plenty of mrs wages in the 11.2 ounce container. How much wages do I use in 30 cups tomatoes??? Oh my goodness! I will watch your video again to try to figure this out! I’m canning this tonight. 💕

[@donnaingle1359]

Wow

[@ElCompaDee]

U have ever tried real Mexican fresh salsa like molcajete salsa u should try it.

[@bethrichardson5998]

I really liked my electric water bath canner.. had it 4 years and 2 weeks ago it died.. so out in the trash it went .. what a bummer

[@susanvance2585]

What are you going to do about the canner? I have the same one. I have used it to death and it still keeps working. Now I'm worried. Did you contact Ball? So, the salsa looks better than my fresh recipe. I like that it is thick and chunky. I have a giant can of diced tomatoes to use up. Now i know what to do with it. What was the heat between the two packages? Thanks for doing this video... I love your channel. Just found you recently when you were on Sutton Dazes...

[@2leelouCreates]

The difference wasn't huge. I like the hot best. But I like hot salsa. I've had my canner about 5 years and used it a lot. I'm not sure what can be done about it.

[@susanvance2585]

@@2leelouCreates They are so expensive to replace.

[@barbaradumler6503]

@@2leelouCreates I was having problems with mine. If you try to adjust the temp it would stop boiling. Called Ball and asked a lot of questions. Unfortunately, the canners are NOT fixable. I don't have any problems as long as I don't try to adjust the temp down.

[@hollyh9334]

Did you have to replace the lids when you started over?

[@2leelouCreates]

No, just had to start the processing time again.

[@Brineytoes]

I can’t find Mrs. Wages products locally and they are outrageously expensive on Amazon. If this economy ever settles back where it ought to be, maybe we will see products on the shelves again. I’d love to make this and the ketchup! My tomato plants are huge and producing, and I will want to can many of them, of course. I will save your video when there are products to buy at a reasonable price again. Pomonas Pectin is the same way.

[@kisefac9163]

@OcalaBrew our Walmart has Mrs Wages and generally farm & garden stores have.

[@KellyS_77]

Wait....what??? You can label the jars before you process them?? *Mind Blown* Now if Mrs. Wages can just come up with a curry sauce mix, we'll be all set :D

[@IMOO1896]

The package says 40 minutes for less that 1000 feet, seems extreme, but can’t don’t a recommendation other than that. Is there a reason for the extended time?

[@2leelouCreates]

I can't officially answer that but my guess is that the dehydrated vegetables in the packet need time to reconstitute and then process.

[@IMOO1896]

@@2leelouCreates sounds logical. That’s the time on the package. But YTers are all over the place, some even 10-15 minutes. Don’t want to take any chances tho, so I followed directions. This was my first time using Mrs Wages salsa mix and now I know why it’s so popular. It’s wonderful. Thanks for your always informative channel

[@kellytumlin6187]

Can you make it in quarts

[@2leelouCreates]

No, the recipe is specifically for pints.

[@wilsonflanders878]

I canned ketchup using mrs wages ketchup mix,gonna canned pasta sauce using mrs wages pasta sauce mix

[@carolynmoody9460]

oh my I would be so broken hearted if my elec water bath died..so sorry it happened to you.. BLESSINGS 💞

[@judyblaise1639]

The salsa looks great. I’m sorry your canner died.

[@terrywilson7518]

too hard

[@2leelouCreates]

For me it was much easier than having to blanch and peel skins from tomatoes and chop onions and Jalapeños. I've made salsa from scratch and this was certainly a lot less work.
