Preserving Summer Harvests - Hot Sauce, Dips, Cordial and More

We've been harvesting tons of delicious produce from our summer veg garden and while we love to enjoy it fresh, we also try to preserve a lot for the future. Join us for a day in the kitchen where we turn a load of summer crops into roasted tomato and pepper pasta sauce, a zingy kaffir lime and chilli hot sauce, two Mediterranean inspired dips, some watermelon cordial and some sourdough flatbread.

Well I wouldn't mind five minutes in your store cupboard. What a tasty batch you made from your produce. The bread looks delicious x

Nothing better than going to the pantry to select jams, sauces, chutneys, preserves etc. My Vacola unit runs hot at harvest time!! ❤ 👋 🇦🇺

Is that a pet name?

Nothing better than cooking or preserving food grown in your own garden. Love this video too.

[@rachelfrees1268]

Never too much garlic. Love the bits in the Hot Sauce. Hey, it’s your pot of sauce, double dip all you want. Signs of a good cook and a successful recipe.🎉

[@sirius_li]

Global knives, Le Creuset cookware, Microplane zester. You definitely mean business.

That was pure "torture" watching the two of you eating your lovely lunch!! Wow the wonderful foods you prepare

[@padimills1494]

Such a treat to have a video by make do grow on a Monday morning. I just love you guys cooking together. Thanks.

[@kdclothes]

We did a water bath this year with a huge metal pot over a wood fire out in the garden. The pot was gigantic. We did 200 bottles of tomato sauce last week

[@geraldinebinghamgadsden1920]

WOW

[@Pete-nl8ok]

I like that you do this together, sharing the work load. The enjoyment is so much better as the reward. Thank you for sharing.

[@jack44stamp89]

I am thoroughly enjoying seeing your kitchen garden content. You are both so knowledgeable about so many things,. A complete joy to watch and learn too.

[@denisemastromina7821]

Its great, we see you growing (stuff) then giving us what you actually do with it all, love it !!! Really enjoying these type of videos 👍👍👍

Thank you for sharing this video!❤ I admire your hard work in filming, editing, baking, cooking, preserving skills, building craftsmanship, etc. Everything you do is excellent and perfect ✌️😊✌️

[@Neilhuny]

Chilli and Kaffir (?) Lime flatbreads? Sounds heavenly The whole video was heavenly: that's what a good life is about, grow it, process it, eat it

[@joannecalcutt6724]

From US. Almost every brand name of flour here is available in all purpose AND self rising. I’m 71 and my mother always used S/R to make biscuits. Love your channel. ❤

[@ktyl-fh3rc]

We also use self rising cornmeal for making cornbread in US.

[@vickihoneycutt456]

My kind of lunch nothing like eating what you've grown yourself makes everything taste better. My husband daughter and I would eat from our garden like you are doing. Miss those days so much! I hope you have many more years if enjoying these kind of days.

[@LaReynedEpee]

So much tasty stuff!

[@kdclothes]

Beautiful bounty from your garden. You will enjoy these tasty treats this fall and winter. I love a well stocked pantry.

[@Adogslife54]

Pick your limes after a good rainy spell. That will be more juicy.

[@rhondadorey1723]

Excellent garden/ preservation 23:12 video. I agree with you about the Vitamix, best tool in the kitchen. I really enjoy the two of you working in the kitchen. I'm always hungry afterwards. 😉👍💗🇨🇦

Great to watch, especially the tasting, I was with you every step of the way. Delicious.

[@katiadp2145]

Wow,guys everything looks so delicious!!!❤❤

[@bacinob]

From Serbia...Loved watching your creative recipes. Just finished bottling 100 kg tomatoes, poured hot sauce in hot bottles, then cooled bottles very slowly under heavy blankets (no boiling needed) never had a bad bottle in 30 years of bottling. As for sterilizing glass jars for peeled tomatoes canning, I sterilize the empty jars in the oven at 100-120 C for 10-15 minutes. Works great... with age I try to minimize my exposure to boiling water.

[@theresecosgrove9140]

Love the Kaffir lime zest addition. These are fun videos.

Hello, you two. This was a very relaxing and satisfying vlog. You can tell you're both in your hsppy place bc your voices are so calm and inviting. Anytime you're up to doing these, these nice long garden to table how-to's are such a oayoff to watching you work so hard. Your not-planned lunch menu was perfect, farmers style, having at table what's in arm's reach. What you put together following what yiu had a hankering for are inspiring. 😉

[@saraoum91]

I'm moroccan and i have to say, you did well with the Zaalouk (aubergine inspired...), o6nly advice is to always put cumin when it's already cooked so it doesn't turn bitter.

[@alexstavrou]

What a great episode 😊

[@minniepearl14]

Yes we have cake flour. Your videos are very informative 👌🏽👌🏽

[@suewhipp6228]

So great to watch you and hear you both doing home preserving, just like we should all do it according to our own tastes and availability... Miss my garden sooo much now but spring is in the air in SA. Down to the lasts in the store cupboard soon it will all be back!! Lovely for gifts, sharing and eating with family and freinds!!

[@AbigailGerlach-zt1sh]

Looking at all those tomatoes and I'm thinking I need to buy a bunch of tomatoes for a tomato, eggplant and feta pie. it's a layered, deep dish pie that is soooo good!

Hi, Kylie and Guy. I could almost smell the deliciousness that you were cooking! Your lunch looked amazing. I have tomato-red pepper-roasted garlic sauce on the stove which I will be processing soon. See you soon❤️❤️

[@michaellinahan7740]

Here in Melbourne I have 2 Kafir lime trees that produce many kg of limes. My wife is Thai so we do use plenty of the leaves in soups and stews and, of course, green curry but few people use the limes themselves; some Thais use the juice as a hair tonic and some use the rind in red curry paste, finely chopped they do add a zing to stir fry dishes. I once made some lime pickle with them but they do need a long time to soften. I have not paired chilli and kafir lime I will have to try that. Last summer I grew chocolate bhuta and Aiji lemon for the first time; the chocolate bhuta is V.V hot but one or two in a hot sauce mix with Habanero and piri piri makes a very good flavourful sauce. The lemon Aiji are med hot and add a nice citrus note to stir fry dishes and I made a small batch of sauce with some grapes which turned out very good with cheese sandwhiches.

[@farmkay]

After washing jars I put them in a warm oven to dry. Then get the oven to 200 leave jars for 15 mins, remove and then put the hot food in, seal, set on bench till seal pops.

[@tessasinclair6315]

All my favourite things to make... and eat ❣️👌🏼😋🔥 Kylie, taste, eat and double-dip all you want. Nothing that the heat from cooking and canning won't kill off. Thank you, for a most satisfying vlog 🤗🙏🏼 ..... Pity we haven't worked on the ability./functionality, to taste, while watching. Yet!

[@luciaelaine_]

[@pb973]

Yes. We have self rising flour in the USA. I use that flour for my biscuits. Your sauces look so yummy.

[@JaniceSeagraves]

You two are getting a lot of use out of your new kitchen. I recently learned to can jam, so I'm interested in how you two are canning.

[@katiebice3905]

My mouth has been watering thru the entire video. YUMMMM. I miss growing my veggies like I did when I lived in Oregon. Living in AZ, it is just too hot and I cannot get anything to grow before it is burned to a crisp.

[@jennichristie5264]

Yum. Writing down the recipe for the Moroccan style dip. Hopefully I got it down mostly!

[@maseeharassack7525]

Thank u so much for sharing your life and banter. You guys give me hope. So envious of your relationship😊❤ "In a gap"😂😂😂

[@LGoKo]

I sterilise my jars and lids for jam in the oven, pre warm wash, heat oven to 100 C and keep in oven for at least 15 mins. If I have rubber seals for mason jars I put in boiling water for as long as needed. Much simpler and cost-effective than sterilizing in water bath or dishwasher. Everything sounds mouthwateringly delicious!

[@bacinob]

I sterilize in the oven as well, safer than dealing with boiling water.

[@jcr_jcr]

OMG that lunch looks delicious. You are brilliant cooks.

Literally beautiful both in color and content. I've never seen jars like yours. Those are nice also. Good video. You two are fun to watch while cooking. LOL

[@QuestMieke]

Another easy method if you don’t have a dish washer (nor do I): I just sterilise my jars and lids for 15-20 min. in a preheated (130 degrees C) oven (not higher as the glass may break/crack). I place the rubber seals in boiling water for about 10 min. Once the jars are sterilised, I fill them with the hot food, or liquids, whilst still warm to preserve cracking. 🫙🍅

[@MAKEDOGROW]

Yeah, I don’t like the oven method, I pretty much always burn myself 😂

[@jeannamcgregor9967]

​​@MAKEDOGROW I just put my jars in the water bath canner so they boil while I prepare the preserves. I'm making a batch of Mexican salsa right now.

[@MAKEDOGROW]

I do that if I’m going to do hot-hot-hot but on this occasion I knew that wasn’t going to happen so I didn’t bother

Just watched #28 again. Have you experimented with the cucumber/mint again? I’m going to try it; skinning the cucumbers lightly, spearmint and less sugar. Of course, lemon juice. I cannot pickle another cucumber! Worth a try. Your dips, sauce and bread-perfeito! 🤗

[@MAKEDOGROW]

We’ve had a couple of disastrous years with cucumbers so haven’t had a chance. The same book that we got that recipe from has an interesting lemon verbena cordial that we’re going to try instead 😀

Will have to try the aubergine tomato dip, a tip for sauces get a simple tomato mill from one of the Chinese stores, much easier than pushing thick sauces through a sieve and produces a great smooth sauce
