I am new to your Homestead Channel, one of my Employees wife told me about you. I have a large farm here in Northern Arkansas that several Employee families live here on the farm. One Mexican family, 3 mennonite families and a widow LDS lady and me. All have there own homes. We fenced in about 6 acres with high fence to keep out deer, elk, bear and wild hogs. This is our garden and orchard. In that area I built a tool shed / garden tractor Storage, also a canning shed/ slaughterhouse. All concrete walls and floor with drain. There are 3 old Gas stoves 2 commercial refrigerators and 4 large chest freezers. With a 4’ x 16’ stainless steel table down the middle. I am 70 and have been farming sense 1977 and live here sense 1988.

Great explanation of the difference between water bath canning and pressure canning. I make my own chicken stock but I struggle with storing it in my tiny apartment freezer. You're making me think about investing in a pressure canner. I think one year of chicken stock would pay for the canner. Great video thanks

Hi Josh and Carolyn, I’m Karen From North Queensland in Australia. I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it. You both give such amazing advice and inspiration. This is the first time I’ve ever been able to have a proper veggie garden and fruit growing because I used to live in a small apartment in Sydney until recently. Now I have a quarter acre block. Not everything grows well where I live owing to the heat and humidity and many traditional summer crops we have to grow during our tropical winter. Even then brassicas are pretty difficult to get past the leaf stage, the heads just don’t form before it gets hot again. The bugs are also a problem. They eat absolutely everything here but so far I’ve restricted my spraying to organic products. I have a preserving question for Carolyn. Is it possible to can (we call it bottling in Australia) homemade mayonnaise or similar products such as hollandaise or bernaise sauce? Thanks and regards, Karen

With modern canners, as Carolyn mentioned, the weight can be jiggled off of the lid, and if it is a Presto style canner with seals, it will have a dime-sized rubber plug that will blow out of the lid if it gets too over pressured. That’ll let the steam out fast!

For those who do not know: Dry canning in ovens is NOT recommended by the glass manufacturer that makes the jars we use in North America. (Newell Corp. owns Ball, Kerr, Bernardin, etc.). The glass is not tempered for use in that type of process. Please, call the company of the label you use and confirm for yourselves. Believe what they tell you. They do not want their customers dissatisfied with their products because they were used incorrectly. With the cost and scarcity of jars not being easily replaced in the current situation we're in today, risking those precious jars in such a way is not worth it. Even if the glass does not break the first time, the dry heat of an oven weakens it for use afterwards.

Diatomaceous Earth in food grade is an inert natural additive to dried goods that actually kills or irritates bugs and worms that try to parasitize your food. It consists of diatom skeletons. Diatoms are(were) tiny, almost microscopic beings that have a simple skeleton. Millions of years ago, when little else existed on our planet, there were diatoms dying and starting to pile up their skeletons. The rough surface of the DE particle is what discourages the parasites. There are guides on how much to mix in with stored grains, etc. to effectively protect them if they are stored in sealed, impermeable containers (canning jars, or five gallon buckets, for example).

I LOVE your Sunday video/podcast!!! I rarely have time to listen on Sunday but instead put this on in my kitchen and listen as I work. In light of the fact that this now a podcast too.....I am going to assume many more people are listening in their cars or with headsets. Okay so this same thing happens with another KZbin channel I really like and like to listen in the same way.....but here is my issue. When one person talks soft and the other person has a way of speaking that they almost yell the first word when they respond to the other. So when I have to turn up the volume to hear the soft talking person it literally hurts my ears when all of sudden the loud speaking person talks. So I either have to strain to hear the soft talker or put up with getting jolted when the loud talker speaks. I know both ways are perfectly normal and who you are....I just thought in case there were a way to tweak this for this type of formate I would love it :)

The three weight regulator for Presto canners is not aftermarket. In Canada we don't have places to get pressure gauges tested, so the canners(bottlers) mainly sold at box or hardware stores here, are without a steam pressure gauge, and have the three weight regulator. Presto regulator. There appear to be advantages and disadvantages to both systems. I bought my Presto online. It was cheaper and there were more versions online. I noted that some Canadian reviewers said to make sure to also get the three weight regulator. I didn't know why at the time and already ordered mine...ok though, it is the one I wanted. I discussed this with a rep at Presto, and they said for sure I should switch to the three weight regulator, especially being Canadian. There is in fact an after market 3 weight regulator for my Presto, but I got the original one that comes with their no steam gauge version. Presto confirmed to me that the vent pipe that the regulators sit atop are identical. I like the idea of the three weight system. Can be improved a bit. I like having the gauge as a reference at least. Would be nice if the gauges were more durable and able to be calibrated at home. I ordered an extra gauge too. I may find a simple way to test the accuracy myself.

Just one correction to using the oven: You absolutely CAN use the oven to truly sterilize EMPTY glass jars. Surgical instruments are sterilized by heat that way. What many get wrong, though, and You guys seem to have mixed that up in this video is that one CANNOT safely sterilize a FILLED jar, because the water in the food inside the jar will keep the jar's content at 100°C/212°F maximum, regardless of the temperature of the dry hot air of the oven. It is ONLY the water content that restricts the oven method to low-pH-/high-acid foods like jams/pickles etc. Otherwise: Good video!

ALL foods can be water bathed as long as you follow the guidelines, even meat. We have been doing it in Europe for hundreds of years successfully. Just because the USDA hasn't tested it doesn't mean it is unsafe. It means they haven't tested it. Pressure canners are actually banned in Germany as an unsafe way of canning and are only really an American thing. You do you but it can be done safely with water bathing..

@doloresreynolds81453 жыл бұрын
Steam doesn’t provide enough heat for safe canning. You have to be able to maintain the temp above boiling (212) for high acid and above 240 for low acid foods for a significant period of time to make the food safe. Steam doesn’t carry heat well into the food. I suggest getting a short siphon hose and a small billows pump (they sell cheap setups to use for gasoline transfer in the auto department, it would work fine for water if you never use it for gas). Your sink drain is lower than your stovetop, so most of the water should siphon out of your canning pot, though you will have to wait until it cools off a bit first.

When you use your 19 jar canner, are you still using just ONE burner?

Hi, I pressure canned my first 2 batches of hamburg and want to know if my first batch is still OK as I only set the pressure at 11 psi, but only check my altitude at the second batch to be at 2,150 feet which should have been at 12psi, which I did set at 12psi for the second batch. Thanks

I prefer to dehydrate my bone broth in the oven and make bone broth powder. It takes up so much less space and only 1 level tsp is needed for a cup of broth. Then I’m not destroying the collagen in the canner and I don’t have the expense of jars and the time investment. I love having my organic nutritious bouillon!

Could you share how you dehydrate in the oven? Or where to learn?

Lisa Chimento I have a square pan about 2 inches deep I like to use. First I line it with parchment paper. I put a couple of cups of broth in it. Sometimes I do this with two pans. I put them in the oven at 170 degrees and leave them for hours, sometimes even overnight. When dry it looks like a shiny brown glass, sometimes with cracks. I pick up pieces. If not completely dry and brittle, dry longer. Then when dry I cool it to room temp and then break it into pieces to grind into powder in my coffee/spice grinder. It is very concentrated. Basically, one tsp makes a cup. So it takes little space and I can get as much or as little as I want. You could also just store the dried pieces, but I prefer the powder so I know how much to use in recipes. You could add salt if you want, but I prefer just to salt the finished product. I learned to make bone broth and to turn it into bouillon watching Mary’s Nest. One other note...Mary recommends saving vegetable scraps in the freezer for bone broth. Well I prefer to dehydrate those too. I simply keep them in a ziplock bag instead of trying to find them in my disorganized, overcrowded freezer.

@@JaniceCrowell I saw your comment last night and thought about it all day while working. I came back to ask how you did it and someone else had and you answered! Thank you! Love Mary's Nest. Learned about her from the Texas AAA magazine. :) Thanks again!

@@jennbasil Mary is amazing. I've learned so much from her. Sometimes her videos are a bit long, but honestly, she goes into the details I needed as a beginner in most of these areas! She really almost always explains every question I have by the end of the video!

@@janicecrowell1537 I love KZbin as opposed to other video hosting platforms because I can speed up or slow down the videos. I begin watching all videos at 1.5 speed and sometimes go faster and can slow down for the parts I want to write down or make note of. Captioning helps too unless it blocks what they're showing at the bottom of the screen. I watch these pantry chats at 1.75 speed. When I do a live workshop and it's at normal speed I kinda go nuts. LOL! I agree, Mary is VERY thorough. I'm gonna find her video on bouillon. Again, many thanks!!

I canned tomato sauce recently but I noticed some water got in my jars during processing. The jars sealed, but are they still good?
