Massive Food Preservation Day to Feed My Large Family of 11

[@JamerrillStewart]

Happy 😊 day, good friends!! Thanks again to Ritual for sponsoring this video! I love their vitamins because they smell good!! Remember to Click here www.ritual.com/JAMERRILL20 20% off during your first month! Hope you have a beautiful weekend. Today I'm canning 50 lbs of carrots 🥕

[@karlaasbury3003]

Idea for next year

[@karlaasbury3003]

Your own diary so you'll have a better idea for next year

[@karlaasbury3003]

It depends on the apple size and weight. Keep a diary so you'll have a better idea for next year

[@wtb61]

My mother canned a lot if applesauce. She saved the skins to make jelly. The peels are full of pectin naturally.

[@angelapattillo6299]

@jamerill Stewart I can’t wait for the 40 freezer meals it always gives me ideas I would love to just one day come cook with you hey maybe that’s your next adventure host small cooking groups and people could bring there food and supplies and have a jamerill cooking day how fun lol alot of work but fun 😂

[@jau2552]

Hey Jamerrill - don’t forget you put quite a bit of applesauce in the fridge in two huge containers to eat right away!!!

[@edenridgefarms]

Yes this is exactly what I was thinking!

[@ersatzsugar3385]

The estimates given for yield are notoriously unreliable, across all fruits and veggies. There are variances by type of fruit, age, processing method, etc., but you're better off making your own notes for the future and going by that. You're doing great! Thank you for sharing your journey 🌷

[@joyceprice6749]

So true. I just do my own counting and can til I have what I want. Have a great day. 🌻

[@2redbird1]

Calculations are always way off. If you add the sugar it would come closer but most people don’t use the recommended sugar. You’re not doing anything wrong.

[@SaraM86]

If the skin and and core i Cook with and the food milled it would me more. But maby not 40 more

[@mschilepepper10]

You all said what I was about to say 👍🏻

[@dartab96]

That applesauce is becoming sort of expensive b ut I'm sure your family will enjoy it. are you going to freeze dry any apples?

[@lindapenland2360]

You know what, don’t worry about the math. You’re doing great things canning for your family. It is what it is😊😊😊

[@susiek2434]

I used Permanent marker to mark all my jar tops, if you want to use the lids for dry storage (or whatever) you can erase the marker writing with alcohol and a paper towel, it will take all the marker off.

[@jeanniemccall9484]

Did you forget to count the one large bowl of applesauce, and that other rectangle container, that you put in the refrigerator? You've done a great job of making all that applesauce for your family!! ENJOY!!

[@Maryqc1960]

my mom always made jelly out of the peelings and cores. Your applesauce looks wonderful.

[@jennygeorge6591]

Pears were beautiful!! What a great feeling getting all this goodness prepared for your family to enjoy. I love seeing you in your new beautiful kitchen with lots of space. Yes and Amen!!

[@janhoke7796]

Jamerrill you are such joy! Recently suddenly widowed you bring joy! Look forward to your videos! God bless you and your family!!

[@JamerrillStewart]

I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for watching, Jan 💜

[@mom2emsopmax]

What a great way to spend my morning with my cup of coffee while the kids still sleep!!! Love ya, Jamerill!!

[@marthaely8244]

In the area of Ohio where I live, there is an Amish family who converted a barn/ shed into a restaurant. Very beautiful, rustic design with beams, vintage items on the walls. And one long shelf with canned tomatoes as decor! I thought, oh, Jammerill would love that! Our church had a reunion there this evening. It was wonderful!

[@sharonmccallister7957]

No need to peel and core apples when making applesauce. Usually my pot of apples cooking looked more soupy. Maybe it was the type apples. Yours looked very pretty in the jars ,(Just use your food mill).

[@sharonmccallister7957]

The recipe you used for the applesauce did it say to peel and core? Maybe if you use the food mill instead would make some difference.

[@maryables6752]

My goodness. You are doing amazing in your canning. You will have alot of food put back. It's alot of work. I canned back in the 1980s thru bout 1995. My husband passed away 😢 in 1996, and I haven't canned anymore. My back is bad and bad health, I couldn't do it anyway. But, I enjoy watchingyou so much, I have learned alot from you, you are an amazing lady. And your family is beautiful.......

[@moxleyfamilyhomestead]

All that food looks yummy. I love seeing home canned food on my shelves. It makes you so proud to see your hard work.

[@moxleyfamilyhomestead]

Also it depends on type of apple and their water/sugar content on how many jars they make. It’s varies so much.

[@heidifrank4547]

I usually add a third a pot of water to my apples that are cooking. Also, using a food mill will maximize using all parts of the apple. You do not need to peel your apples when using a food mill!

[@sophomoric1605]

This right here. A food mill will make a huge difference. It also seems like all the tasting, and reserving applesauce to eat fresh on the first night may have reduced her number by a bit.

[@nekonoai]

@@savannah1449 I do this as well!, it's a real time saver!

[@addyttudejones1130]

I think it’s bc you condensed the apples instead of slices or chunks being canned. Also you saved a couple containers for the family in the refrigerator. In any event those jars will be thoroughly enjoyed and so much healthier. ❤

[@clarioncall8449]

When I make applesauce I don’t peel and core them; just cut them in half and cook them and then run them through a food mill. I think you get more loss when you peel/core them than if you just cut and cook them and then mill them afterwards. I have very little waste usually. But the pigs enjoy it!

[@rhondabowen4189]

I agree, Clarion. My mom did it that way and it’s how I learned.

[@kari-gs4eq]

Yes!

[@ingoseltmann9702]

Look the videos from the Channel "A Country Life" . A few days ago she showed how she makes apple sauce

[@juliagatewood5202]

I use a food mill as well…then I freeze the applesauce.

[@livingthroughthechaos]

@@juliagatewood5202 just wondering does it freeze well? I was thinking of making some to freeze and worried it would defrost and be watery.

[@lisabreeding1861]

Apple cider vinegar and apple jelly are good for all the cores and peelings. Put in the freezer until you get all the fresh produce processed.

[@sarahjscooper]

I'm in full canning mode right now too.. just canned 20lbs of apples and I'm starting up on canning all the cherries I froze during the summer! Trying to free up some treasured freezer space! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@mistygoodson4025]

I make apple peel jelly and syrup. To make it fun, I melt down either red hots or hot tamales candies. It turns into a brilliant color and it’s so good!

[@pamelagoodman1348]

Oh my gosh. I remember red hot applesauce.

[@juliehinkel608]

Agreed - the cinnamon flavor is just delicious

[@susandavis8028]

I have the utmost respect for you handling all of your children and homeschool and farming,etc. God love you!! I’m VERY impressed!!!

[@Butter-Cream127_3]

Jamerrill, I’m learning so much watching you in the canning process.

[@tinerea7464]

Its a beautiful sight seeing all those jars. I believe youll be fine with your canning shelves in the kitchen. Imagine having your coffee, sitting in your Mama chair and looking at all your canning goodness❣ Yes and AMEN❣😘

[@JamerrillStewart]

I hope so too! 💕

[@davidwright8850]

I bake the peelings with cinnamon/sugar delicious..the kids loved them. You can also dehydrate them.

[@karenstamper3019]

Watching your canning adventures reminds me of helping my grandmother when she canned. I was her peeler and heavy lifter. She used to put vanilla and red hots in her pears. The red hots made them pink. Being that we were a house full of girls, we always thought she made them just for us cuz they were pink. Love watching your adventures and you sharing your family and yourself with us!

[@cathygesch6817]

I always cook my apples with the peels on and then put it thru a sieve to get the peels out of the applesauce. We do cut the apples up into smaller chuncks and remove the core and any bad spots. My husband helps too.

[@hairstylist58]

Jamerrill, Get your self one of the industrial sized immersion blenders! It will make it so much easier for you to smooth out the apple sauce. Also, you can leave the peels on the fruit, it adds to the nutrition and it will blend down fine, if you don't like the texture you can strain it. Really the best apple sauce ever! Love it!

[@debraigo2711]

Those peeling scraps could be cooked up with water and strained to make amazing apple jelly, or juice to drink or add to another fruit for a mixed jelly.

[@melissav1416]

There is so much variability in bushel to quart estimates! You are also doing a much healthier version, so that is a lot of cups of sugar you have not put in your jars. You are seriously doing great. I keep a food preservation journal with notes about things like this. If you can, get more apples.

[@roszcutler9724]

Their estimate’s are not reliable that’s what I found when I got a bushel of tomatoes 🥴 I’m so happy for you finally working in your new big kitchen! I love watching your videos on cooking and canning. I have been watching since your videos on storing wheat grains in Mylar bag’s. So I have plenty of that put away, thank you and May our Good Lord bless you and your family. You go girl!!!

[@JW-es5un]

SECOND COMMENT Honey as a old fart lol been canning for 45 years don’t worry about the amount the book says you should get this amount of jars pints or quarts. Yes size of the fruit or veggies & weight does play into the count. I DROVE MY SELF IN TO MIGRAINES TRYING TO GET WHAT THE EXPERTS????? SAY. Just be your Happy Mama self & can bake & cook homemade stuff. Making Memories is what matters in the end🥰❤️💕. SWEETHEART YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. Everything is looking great. GOD BLESS FROM WEST CENTRAL INDIANA FARMLAND ✝️🇺🇸🥰🚜

[@vicki4345]

Thankyou Jamerrill for the code and info about ritual. I am 68 and live alone and hate to cook so you know my eating habit is not good. So I thought I should jump on this offer and maybe help my old body out a little to get some vitamins. Thankyou So Much! Love your kitchen and you make my day when I see you have a video up. You are 'one hardworking woman' for sure!!

[@sammia4227]

I canned pears this year, but I canned them as pear sauce. Same process as making apples, and it’s delicious!

[@hayaclark2767]

That sounds awesome

[@Sandra-pm3it]

I made crockpot pear butter. It is delicious.

[@suzannahernandez1229]

The orchard I bought apples from this year (my first time ever), their baskets are 1/2 bushels. The same as the boxes of 2nds they sell. So the 1 bushel I bought of 2nds I ended up with 13 & 1/2 quarts of sauce. & a bunch of peels we gave to our chickens.

[@mollysmith6055]

You probably got this comment many, many times but if you had a Victorio/Squeezo type food mill you would get more yield from your apples. When I use mine (not that brand name but a good knock-off) I run the pulp through the hopper twice and get the maximum amount out of the cooked fruit or veggies. And the best part is you only need to wash and chop the fruit...the food mill takes out the peels and seeds for you and you can still feed the final 'waste' product to your animals to become bacon or eggs. You are doing such an awesome job providing healthy, home processed food for your family Jamerrill. It is a lot of hard work but really worth it.

[@JamerrillStewart]

This sounds great!! I'm going to try it this way next time 💕

[@judyraterink3484]

Just finished 83 quarts of apples. They are alot of work, but worth the goodness.

[@DianePahl]

As someone commented below, it all depends on the variety and how the apple season went. Up here in the north I've noticed the apples are much smaller than other years - probably because of the lack of rain we had. I noticed the same with the tomatoes I purchased. Basically, it's a crapshoot from year to year. Next year, keep an eye on the summer weather and rain quantities where the apples are grown and you may get a better idea of how many to purchase. My motto has always been, overbuy, lol.

[@ciaranolan3983]

You're living my ideal life. Bunch of babies living off the land in a house we all love. Thanks Jam! You are the inspo.

[@yvettegerry9862]

My sister-in-law made pear jelly for the first time,it was so good , we put it on biscuits and it tasted like apple pie ! Love your baby pigs 🐖 ❤🐷Jamerrill go watch Jennifer on a country life you will love her . She has something I think it’s food strainer ,you don’t have to peel anything saves so much work !

[@katiek1856]

I follow her too, for several years.

[@hopelk]

I follow Jennifer Brockman too....she & Jamerille have much in common...cranberry harvest comin' up!!!

[@AliPrieta]

That sounds exquisite

[@lenalyles2712]

By the time you peel and core, and cook down you only end up with about 2/3s of a bushel. I never cooked my apples, I ground them loaded the jars and pressure canned them like my grandmother taught me. She never had a problem with spoiled or grainy applesauce. Pear honey, pear butter, and pear halves in natural syrup is always a hit with our family.

[@cynthiagilbert]

Was so excited when your video popped up! So enjoyed all this canning you have done ! Amazing stock pile !

[@kelsijackson1905]

This year was my first time canning. I did peaches first. Then I did pears. I learned after the peaches you could use the skin and cores to make jelly so I made pear jelly. I then did apple sauce, apple butter, apple jelly and apple pie filling. I didn't get as many jars of apple sauce as the book said either.

[@emilasmith4279]

Good morning! What a fun project! I’ve never canned in my life but my parents did. I bet that beautiful kitchen smelled wonderful these last couple of days. ❤❤❤🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏

[@liddierose7063]

I don't believe your boxes had a whole bustle in them. That's probably why. I love watching your channel. Love your whole family.

[@kendrabeal9900]

I believe the amount you end up with depends on the type and size of the apples you start out with. I have never gotten the amounts that those books say you should get and I have been canning for 50 plus years. Just make a note to yourself for next year of how much you actually got.

[@dianabarnes8538]

I canned pears a couple of weeks ago. I love canned pears with cottage cheese. I also made a few jars of pear preserves,so good on a biscuit. lol

[@carriem1945]

Newer subscriber and you have been instrumental with my new passion. Had my first proper garden this year and first time water bath canning. Received my Presto canner yesterday and more adventures are starting today! Thank you ❤

[@beckyluvstoscrapnsew]

One tip my nana taught me was if you don’t have a full canner is to fill extra jars with water so it’s full up and the jars cannot move around in the canner …the only time she had broken jars is if her canner wasn’t full ..although jars can obviously crack from trauma they get before they even arrive to the consumer or from getting knocked about in the sink etc ..

[@PeriwinkleBluetag]

I know you're not being sponsored by Kitchen Aide but I would love it if you demonstrated the peeling attachment, etc.

[@beckyoverstreet7478]

I was hoping that we would get to see the Kitchen Aide Peeler in action too! Blessings!🌸

[@deeburke7320]

I live love love watching your videos. Your family should be well fed this winter. Thanks for sharing...

[@ashleywyatt4494]

When I first started canning fruit, I was buying from local farmers and markets. I had a similar issue happen and it turns out what I was calling a bushel wasn't a bushel at all but a half bushel. I'm not saying that is your issue but it would explain the difference in your apple math! I love watching you, thanks for all you post!

[@mgraham6625]

Jamerill, you are an inspiration to women everywhere! No matter what barriers pop up, you face them head on and keep plugging away until a resolution is achieved. Thank you for being such a fine role model for women in this day and age. I know it can't possibly be as easy as you make it seem. Your upbeat spirit shines through, and your guardian angel must be working overtime! Thank you for being you!

[@JamerrillStewart]

Thank you so much for all of these kind words! 💜

[@Pamela-gm5sx]

Jammerill you have blessed me with these canning vlogs so much! I've had some bad days lately and these have been so sweet for me to watch! Thank you!!! As my father would say blessings on you! Pam

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Do you also watch Becky from Acre Homestead? And Rachel at That 1870s Homestead? They are good too.

[@joyceprice6749]

Jamerrill not everyone has the same amount when canning. It depends on the size of the fruit and vegetables also the types. I like to mostly if I can make apple sauce from granny Smith but will do any except red and yellow delicious because they're to watery. When you're finished you can figure everything out and write things down. Great job young lady. Love your videos. God bless you all. 💙🌹💙

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I use mostly Golden Delicious apples for my applesauce. I love the flavor. I usually mix other apples in to give a more complex flavor.

[@unleashedpatriot1802]

I use what they say as a very general estimate. Apple size, core size, paper thin peelers or thick peelers, moisture content, consistency preferences, they all make a difference. I have been canning for years and I have had bottoms break out of my jars occasionally too, usually faulty jar. You are doing GREAT & getting a lot done! ♥️😉

[@hairdebi]

You said in your pepper video the other day that chickens will eat hot peppers,I thought you were wrong about that. Yesterday my hens got into my garden and they were eating all my Serrano peppers and loving it. It looks like you were right. I’ll be giving my pepper scraps to the chickens from now on. I’ve been putting them in my compost bin.

[@vanessarheadart9708]

Apparently chickens can not taste HOT, so your peppers will be fair game to them 😁 It was her pigs that wouldn't eat pepper scraps, they weren't hot though they were a mixture of sweet peppers like California and Banana. Fussy pigs.

[@cynthiagilbert]

I have heard chickens cannot taste hot peppers like we can !

[@donnadavis613]

I don't think birds have the taste sensors that would discern spicy flavors

[@joyceprice6749]

😂 you won't need to put hot sauce on your eggs. 😂

[@elainem9909]

Your eggs may have a little heat to them.😂😂😂

[@timvandermey4792]

I always leave the peal on. Wash the apples well in soapy water and rinse. Quarter and remove core. Cook down slow. Blend.

[@stephaniewest-white2777]

I just love waiting and binge watch your blogs because it comes up one after the other. Me and hubby were just talking about how we tackle canning. We set up a line for certain canning projects. I like to peel my tomatoes and I cut the bottoms in a x and do hot boiling H2O and then to a water bath and my hubby peels them. Its sweet and fun to spend time with my best friend. Also my babies are all grown now but I do have grandbabies. Good luck cannot wait for more great vlogs.😀😁😋

[@artemisfowl66]

I think you said you were getting a steam juicer. You can put the apple scaps through, get a surprising amount of juice to can then give the scraps to the pugs after. Alternately you can freeze dry them, put through the blender and make apple dust to sprinkle on desserts and ice cream. You will get loads of juice from pears. Loving your videos.

[@tmor1937]

Start a canning journal. It save me figuring out stuff every year.

[@mariaverrillo9170]

Great job canning preserving food is lots of work …..🇨🇦🙋🏼‍♀️👍🙏🏻

Going to the grocery store is worse. 😂

[@debrajones7349]

OMG!!! How did I not know about that mixer attachment! I have an apple orchard and process apples for weeks and weeks in the fall. I just ordered it! You made my day, thank you!

[@JamerrillStewart]

Glad it was helpful!

[@pamelaberends]

Hi Jamerill, My mom didn't peel the apples, she would quarter the apples, cut out the core and she threw the apples in that way. She liked the extra vitamins that were in the skins and the beautiful pink color. She would put the cooked apples into a colander and stir till all that was left were skins. It was sooooooo good! She liked Courtland apples. I used any and all apples mostly bc they needed to get used and easy peasy addition to dinner and my house smelled so good and tummies were filled. I wish I could do some myself. Tfs

[@seylerfam7025]

The applesauce and pears turned out magazine perfect.Your family is blessed to have you as such a loving mother that does so much hands on to raise them healthy,happy,smart and so well fed organically.Great job mega Mama !💯👌❤

[@nininoona]

I purchased a bushel of winesap apples this year for canning. From that bushel, I got 10 quarts of applesauce and a gallon jar of dried apples. After gifting/eating about a dozen apples fresh. So variety and size of the apples are key. Im not partial to any variety of apples for sauce, I just buy the largest ones they have. I don't have any fancy equipment for processing my apples so I peeled, cored, and cut up all my apples by hand.

[@alicewhittington5506]

Also I have found while doing large batch canning if you keep your new jars warm in the oven on the lowest setting then they're always ready to be filled with the warm liquid helps the flow

[@barbaraswader1799]

Girl, you are a wonder woman. I do not see how you do all the things you do. Love your videos.

[@BassingirlCrafts]

I think it has to do with how much moisture are in the apples themselves and how much water is added :)

[@ntfhomestead8651]

Good morning lady! In my experience, I get 10-11 qaurts from my 22 qaurt roaster and about 7-8 qaurts from my water bath canner full. Ive been making bulk applesauce for about 10 years and the approved methods dont ever seem to yield what they say! 1 bushel usually yields 7 qaurts of pie filling. 1/2 bushel gives about 5 quarts dehydrated apple chips. And for apple butter you might as well not measure🤣. I think the peel and core to jelly ratio is about right. Hope this helps a bit!

[@ingridzacharias8697]

Also, 1 bushel of apples makes 20 pints of raw apple sause. For raw apple sauce, they use the peels too. I noticed that you are using mostly quart jars for canning your apple sauce. So one bushel of raw apples will make 10 quarts of raw apple sauce, so also if you cook the apples down, they will take up less space, and as a result, you will also get fewer quarts as well, because you cooked your apples.

[@JamerrillStewart]

Thank you for your thoughts, Ingrid! I'll try it another way next time 🤗

[@tammyr2966]

Wow! You got so much done! Way to go! Those pears look amazing! I love to can peaches and pears!

[@shonahira3643]

Hi finally I have finally subscribed from NZ living in Australia ..I personally want Thank You been watching You on utube for sometime now .. been such a blessing after losing my Mum to cancer over a year ago I watched You as a debrief from after at the hospital and after her passing ..I'm hooked so much to look forward to ..as for the apple's and growing up on a kiwifruit orchard with apple trees etc it's size of the apples also

[@melissanash6801]

I agree with other commenters that the yields are always off from NCFHFP along with the fact that you didn’t use sugar ( I don’t either) which bulks it up. Also, they’re assuming you’re using a food mill or Victorio strainer which would increase your yield. When you use a food strainer, the peels and cores all go through it and the waste is significantly less - producing a higher yield. These are the things we learn when canning! We do what we know to do at the time we know to do it. Your Kitchen Aid attachment is amazing for things like pie filling or canning sliced apples.

[@robinchapman2048]

Jamerrill, I know this is a moot point but I absolutely love your Apple making , apple canning music, I don't know who chose it but it's definitely puts a spring in your steps. Love the drums.

[@kimpeters8157]

Beautiful beautiful job with this! I think the variable here is the apple size. The usable flesh is what gives you that jar yield. This is amazing. So much admiration for you all❤️😍

[@hdacres9990]

It might be less because you did not use the peels . With peels it is more . Peels cook down too and when you are blending everything the peels are not noticeable any longer .

[@nicoleneubauer2756]

I've been warming my jars and rings in a low temp. oven. I just place them on a baking sheet and get them out as I fill them. Lids still get put in pot of hot water on the stove.

[@nawalal-rida1607]

Yay more than one video in a week lovin' it and bulk cooking day miss them can't wait.❤️

[@joancheeseman9364]

Your apple peeler also over peels your apples. Using a paring knife is tedious but saves far more apple. ( I have a manual peeler/slicer and do not use it because of the apple loss. Interestingly, you can keep the peels, as you know, and use a food mill when applesauce is done. I know I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. It's short time prep vs more applesauce per apple. You are processing a huge amt so you choose which method works for you. I use the food mill but it does need cleaning often. I'd never use my method for the amount of applesauce you process. Whatever method it sure tastes good in ugly January.

[@joancheeseman9364]

Just thinking, perhaps it's the brand of apple and age that determines its water content and vaporization rate when cooking. It is a puzzle.

[@terryhenderson424]

Growing up, we made this amount of apple sauce in a MUCH smaller kitchen but used a manual crank, Foley food mill. We removed seeds, stems, and bad spots thus cooking quartered apples with cores and peels. Back cranking the manual food mill raised the pulp from screen mesh. You could usually add apples again before having to stop and actually remove the pulp. In watching the videos with Kitchen Aides, the Kitchen Aides seem to take more work than the manual food mills. The apple sauce was browner, thicker, less naturally sweet (which could have been related to the apples), and perfect for cooking down into apple butter rather than canning right up.

[@annanewswanger526]

The Apple peeler peels off too much Apple, I quarter my apples, cook them with peels on, then strain through the Victoria strainer. It's messy but I use old towels everywhere..I got 48 quart off 2 1/2 bushel. I cook the apples in Apple juice for better flavor. But you do whatever works for you! I don't have pigs to eat the scraps.

[@jcav7]

I think the density of the apples makes a difference as well.

[@nancymcdowell9607]

Today, I canned chicken legs, and dark and light meat chicken from our local Sam's. It was cheaper to buy 3 already cooked ($4.99) than raw ($12.99) Making apple butter now. You are doi g great. Keep up the good work!

[@naturalsimpleliving]

Will be canning apples, and taking care of all our wine grapes this weekend! Everything looks so incredible Jamerill! What a productive evening! Happy Weekend!

[@fairytale_after_dark6696]

Hi Jamerrill 👋 it's 3am here in the UK and 9 months since you published this video so I'm really too tired to read comments but The Texas Mom on The Texas Boys had a whole apple sauce drama over separation in the jars so she binned it all! So silly, in my ignorant opinion, but she said the Ball recipe was for pints and not recommended for quartz so your maths is right for pint size jars. 😊 I hope you already found the answer or this helps as we're back, in apple season again for this year. Take care and God bless. Thinking and praying for you all. 🙏

Just a thought but years ago while canning peaches I decided to take the peelings ( because there was so much) & I made jam from the peeling’s. Omg…my family loved the jam. I bet the apple peeling’s because there so thin using the spiral slicer would make some awesome apple jam. Probably would need to add the peeling’s of the apple to lemon juice water to keep them from turning dark. Just sharing

Short term canning storage is a wonderful ideal. I myself had a beautiful cabinet made and the beauty of my cabinet it’sI also can be closed with the barn doors if needed sometimes the canning jars can get pretty dusting where I live
