Wow! I would have never even thought about using squash for lemon pie filling! A few years back someone gave me way more zucchini than I could use so I used them in my 3 day sweet pickle recipe and no one could tell they were eating zucchini and not cucumbers. So this squash mock lemon pie filling makes sense! Thank you so much for this video.

Very new to canning and eager to learn. Can something like 3fruit marmalade be steam canned and do you have a recipe/ video? Enjoying all your recipes and methods explained so well.

So sorry I have not seen your reply sooner! That is ONE thing that I hope youtube improves at some point. There is not notification when someone "replies" to a comment. Yes, a 3 fruit marmalade would be absolutely safe to steam can. I do not happen to have a recipe nor a video to share with you however.....

I've been told the reason for not canning pureed pumpkin or pumpkin pie filling is that even in a pressure canner you can't be certain that it will heat all the way through. This leads to bacteria growing in the pumpkin and food poisoning. If I want to can pumpkin I dry can 1 inch cubes and mash it later.

Yes, pureed plain pumpkin can be a density issue....however, you can thin it a bit with water before canning to make it a bit more fluid, and heat will transfer more easily. Or, do like me...add sugar (and spices) which increases safety to make pumpkin butter....then simply add eggs and milk when going to use for a pie.

Miss Lori Been so busy caring for my elderly Aunt, and now taking care of the garden. Can't comment much these days, but always watch and 👍. But this time I HAVE to comment. I was excited when I saw this video!! I LOVE lemon anything! But I must ask your indulgence to explain my experience , which I call "Abbot and Costello make mock lemon pie filling"...both parts played by me. First, I do not have a food processor. Need I say more? Over 4 hours grating all that zuchinni. I lost probably over a pound of it because I grated my thumb knuckle into it. Boy, that hurt. So I had to throw all that out, bandage my thumb, get a new bowl and start all over. I cooked it down, pureed it, then added the slurry of tapioca starch and sugar. I poured it in ever so slowly while whisking constantly. However, it ended up not very thick, with clumps of the starch all in it. I wasn't giving up regardless of how it turned out. So I then scooped it from the pot, through a strainer to catch all the clumps, into a bowl. Then I just started putting it in jars to can it. It was not thick at all. I was going to can it anyway. I thought maybe I could just mix the liquid in yogurt or something. And it looked like a bomb blew up in my kitchen. Even my floor was sticky. I was tired, frustrated and well, mad. So....the next morning I opened a jar. And Miss Lori, it was the thickest, richest, smoothest, most DELICIOUS lemon filling I ever tasted! I was dumbfounded. It was like God had pity on me and performed a miracle overnight. It was perfect. It's beautiful! It was so worth it. Thank you SO, SO much for this recipe, Miss Lori!! (However, I will not make it again until I can get myself a food processor! 😂)

Oh my sweet Judy!! I am so sorry to hear of all of those trials! As I said....if you are grating by hand....you need to get yourself some POWER tools! Lol! THAT was a lot of hand grating to do my dear! I can well imagine you were hot, exhausted and frustrated to say the very least. I cannot explain the clumps....as I have never had that happen with Tapioca flour. You mixed it with the reserved sugar...and then added some water and whisked it well to smooth it? Im thinking after you added it to your hot pie filling in the pan....it simply needed to cook more before you put it in your jars and those "clumps" would have been mixed out, along with the filling thickening up. BUT....I am so happy to hear that it thickened during the canning process and that you love it!! May I add.....if this ever happens again with the clumping, simply wiz the whole mess in your blender again hun! No need to struggle straining out the clumps. I just feel so bad that you struggled so much getting through it my dear! God BLESS you and keep you sweet lady! And thank you for your continued support and wonderful comments. My prayers for your aunt....and also for YOU as her care giver!

I am new to your channel & I am subscribed. I have to say girl, you are a genius. Just finished cooking & thickening the beautiful yellow lemony pie filling. Being a diabetic, I use a blend of 1/2 sugar & 1/2 stevia. OMG, the flavor is fabulous. Thank you so much for your creativeness. I was wondering about the foam that was created when I blended the squash. After canned, I am hoping it will disappear. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I have only just begun harvesting my zucchini & yellow squash. Thank you again.

...kind of. Rhubarb and Strawberries are both....fruit. Higher in both acid and natural sugars. Zucchini and Summer Squash are low acid. If canned alone.....the needed process time by hot water bath is very long.....OR you need to pressure can them. The amount of lemon juice, and sugar I used increases the acidity and safety. Virtually turning a low acid veggie with a long canning time....INTO a high acid fruit, with a short fruit canning time.

I was excited about plenty of squash this year but I was infested with aphids and the the dang Beatles! I was going to shred a huge amount and freeze for Zucchini bread through the winter but only got minimal squash.. I would have really liked to make this mock pie filling… ☹️ Thank you so much Lorrie!

Hi Lorrie, Can we use thawed zucchini and yellow squash? Thank you.
@millermeadows6359
@millermeadows6359 Ай бұрын
You can, but it will be mushy. Freezing breaks down the cell walls of zucchini, making it very soft upon defrosting. So although yes, it would be "safe" to do so....I don't think the results would be what you hope for. This works best with fresh squash, and it remains firm for frying ECT....

I weigh my Squash on a kitchen scale before shredding.....so I have never measured it in cups. But I would guess by the volume in my large pot, that it is around 28-30C of fresh grated zucchini or summer squash.

I have been off line for a few days....I'm SO sorry I did not see this until now. Yes. At any time, if you have jars that will not fit into your canner you can refrigerate and process them later. Just allow them to come back to room temperature before canning....to avoid thermal shock.

It's much like any other canned pie filling. It thickens a bit during canning. And chilling makes is even more set. You can always make a little corn starch slurry...heat your filling and thicken it more before placing in your pie shell if you prefer....

@millermeadows6359 Жыл бұрын
I did say "potato starch" near the end of the video. HOWEVER.....sometimes my mind is going a million miles a minute, and I stumble over my words. I DO think that potato starch is a viable alternative to the Tapioca starch I am using. I simply have never experimented with it in this recipe....and do not have a measurement to offer you.

I have used corn starch for many years in my Apple Pie Filling..... So yes! You can! Corn starch....IS canning friendly! After many years of exclusively using corn starch.....I am now using Tapioca Flour for all of my Pie fillings, so sadly, I do not have a tried and true corn starch measurement for you on my recipe for Mock Lemon Pie Filling. Make a "slurry" of corn starch....and then add it slowly to your pie filling.....simmering until you reach your desired level of thickness. In storage....your corn starch thickened items WILL separate. Simply shake, or stir.....to reincorporate before use.

I said "potato starch" towards the end of the video....... Sometimes as a recipe creator, I have so many things going on in my head....they come out of my mouth unintentionally. I have NOT experimented with potato starch with this recipe. And I do not know what the results or measurements would be using that product..... Wish I could have answers for ALL the questions......I'm always thinking of alternatives....but can only provide my personal experience....and in this case, it is Tapioca Flour/Starch.....or its equal measurement of Clear Jel. I do think that potato starch is a viable alternative. I simply have never used it in this application and cannot provide detailed measurements or long term shelf Storage results.
