In regards to reusing lids, I always reuse the jars and lids from jelly, beets, spaghetti sauce, anything that has that little inner rubber seal for my water bath canning. So far it has worked for me also!

[@plddc614]

Also if you watch water bath canners in other countries they use lids like classico also

[@countycalling]

I’m always amazed at how easy you make it! I found an app that saves you greatly on produce, pantry, meats, dairy……I was just looking at what was available today low and behold they have three pretty good size boxes of oranges, missed varieties, but about 25 ish for 3.00! I’m was thinking what the heck can I so with these (my old hands can’t squeeze anymore). Check one of my favorite channels and behold there you are canning oranges! I’m off to get two boxes of oranges. Thank you!

[@delnacarruthers9335]

Great video as always! Thanks for sharing the classico lid reuse. When I watch canning in foreign countries they all use those metal screw on lids.....sounds like ball does not want competition !

OMG I can't believe it's that simple! I've been pressuring canning for years and never did a water bath....WHO KNEW! Oranges were just on sale but it's just me and my husband so I passed on it but! I won't anymore. TFS THUMBS UP!

So easy!! 💕🇺🇸

Water bath Salsa too,instead of pressure canning.I reuse them jar's,& it works,Olives jar's,Pickle jar's, Spaghetti jar's.

I water bath everything, even meat. I'm addicted to canning, lol

[@6stringgunner511]

Awesome!!!! I'm gonna can a couple dozen quarts of oranges. I want to stock my pantry. It's gonna be a long cold dark Winter. Gotta have vitamin C and sweets available. Remember to stock up your pantries. If your pantry looks full? Add just a bit more. You'll want extra to barter or help others less fortunate. Take care and thank you for the video.

Awesome 👏🏻 I will start checking the prices of oranges in the grocery store this weekend. I avoided our HUGE farmers market this year because of COVID and the HUGE crowds the market attracts. Just being cautious 😬 Not much canning this year. I have stocked up on a lot of dry goods, and canned goods from Azure Standard, and the grocery store. I also placed several orders with an awesome Amish bulk food store near by. Doing what I can this year. Thank You for the wonderful content you put on your channel ❤️ Blessings from Green, Ohio ❤️🌱

Thanks for showing the process. btw we don't even have these 2 parts lids where I live in europe, so you're safe :p To be extra safe you'd go for a full glass jar and a sterile disposable rubber ring, but it's totally possible to reuse plain old jam jars as long as the lid doesn't rust and does have a sealing joint as you show.

I use a potato peeler to lightly scrape the white pith off after peeling. Just lightly scrap it snags pith and peels off fairly easily

[@sheilawixon3858]

Jenny if you soak in enzyme pectin after peeled it will pull more of the pith off. I get it thru amazon.

[@michaelpardue2400]

I don’t like using those One Piece lids because I’d never know if the seal fails. I also found that I can’t clean them well enough to get the smell of tomatoes sauce off of them 😂😁

You are so Brilliant with Canning. Love it. Do they darken or stay the Pretty Color?

[@maureen3134]

I'm so glad I found your channel! I was really looking forward to giving canning oranges a try, and when I finally started the process this morning I quickly realized I should have done my homework about the oranges. After a little research, I have found that navels are best for canning, and at this point (July), I will need to wait until November for them to be in season again. I purchased mine at a large bulk store (the C one), but when I started peeling them this morning it was evident they were all wrong. They didn't peel well, when I tried to separate the sections they kept ripping, and the taste was not good at all; I chalked it up to a still new canner learning experience 😊 I will not be deterred, however, and plan to give this a try again in November.

[@voodookitchenmama]

I live in Florida and in the local Wally World today, oranges were 82 cents...EACH!

[@cookiemama4]

We need to look for local orange orchard farmers! They need the business and we need the oranges. I live in California, you in Florida, so there's no reason for them to be overcharging us in the 2 citrus capitals of America! 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊😠

[@voodookitchenmama]

@@cookiemama4 I agree! I worked in the citrus business for years and this is totally outrageous. However, Florida has destroyed thousands of groves, due to "greening" and other issues, to say nothing of the building and paving over of our rural lands that once supported orange groves. We have several local small groves here that offer "u pick it".

[@cookiemama4]

@@voodookitchenmama I will have to look up the you- pick-it places for oranges. There are more people, thus we need all the food we can grow! We used to grow enough food to feed the world, but those who are re- wilding our lands are causing starvation.. I'm going to can all the oranges I have jars for, which is only about 4 cases of quart, and some pint jars. I'm saving my other jars mostly for potatoes and meat.. Hard times are coming... PS: California has also destroyed a lot of orange groves! I think I'll plant an orange tree.. :)

[@voodookitchenmama]

@@cookiemama4 good idea to find some U Pick it places. I've even stopped and picked grapefruit and kumquats I've found growing along the roads (I'm out in the sticks) where no one lives. People sometimes forget to look at what's growing right around them.

[@michellemccarthy2667]

I'm just seeing your video. I bought oranges and I'm about to can them your way! Question: you mentioned you were saving the peels. How were you preserving them.and storing them? Love you simple approach, i..I.. new fan and subscriber. Bet I will learn lots

[@KathrynCurtiss]

I've candied the peels (boil them then coat them with sugar) and also made them into a cleaner by soaking them with vinegar in a glass jar then poured it into a spray bottle.

[@iartistdotme]

I think the trouble with using the Classico lids is that it may hold the rubber seal in place even if it didn't expell all the air when canning. This may allow bacteria to be present that you don't smell or see. As my Vet once told me when he saw me give my huge dog a turkey bone, it works well until the one time it doesn't and then the dog may die. I never did it after that. I reuse my lids but only for dehydrated foods which I seal taking the air out with a air pump. That way I don't feel like I'm wasting money. Good luck and even though we have an orange tree, I never thought to can them. Have you ever canned the juice? Thanks for the video.

[@emilystevens7837]

It's now a year later, just wondering how the quality of the oranges are and how they held up and if they taste great. Thanks!
