Pressure Canning For Beginners

[@jdelany8026]

JUST AN AFTER THOUGHT. MY MOTHER BOUGHT A PRESSURE CANNER IN THE EARLY 50'S. SHE WASN'T ONE FOR READING INSTRUCTIONS. WHEN IT BLEW . THE WALLS , FLOORS, CEILING, STOVE,AND ANYTHING ELSE IN THE KITCHEN WAS DECORATED WITH THAT DAYS SUPPER.THE CANNER WAS NEV ER USED AGAIN. THEY SAY THAT MEMORIES ARE THE ALBUMS TO YESTERDAYS TREASURES. I AM 85 I REMEMBER IT LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY..I HAD TO HELP CLEAN IT UP HA HA

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Yes, that used to happen with the old pressure canners. They are much safer now but you still have to read the instructions LOL

[@WanderingVeteran]

What a nightmare! I can only imagine.

[@Tomes23]

How dreadful! 😳

[@cathywilliams6306]

J Delany my mother did it was split peas..whole kitchen was green! That was a childhood memory! I am 70!

[@chrisapplewhite6660]

The pressure canners were just as safe as they are today. The problems was the people operating them at the time were so stupid they were not aware of their own actions hence why all of you had to help clean up their problems...it's only today now with technology you can't get away with any bs or you are held accountable, back then people were disgusting and had no morals or core values

[@ladyann5778]

Thank you for explaining this i had no idea what i was doing

[@CanadianPrepper]

Added this to my prepping food playlist, great tutorial. Very simple and easy to understand

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Thank you, Nate. I appreciate it.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Thank you!

[@janicejurgensen2122]

I agree! Very good and now I feel ready to make my first attempt! Thanks

[@serephiamccabe]

Didn't know you can can veg and meat and liquid?

[@Jbarton81]

What a woman! I’m absolutely determined to be like this in the coming years of my motherhood and wife hood. I’ve had no training and didn’t grow up in a homemade home, but I am so sure this is a path that leads to greatness!! Thanks for sharing this, it’s so very well done!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You will do well. There are so many resources on You Tube and elsewhere that can help you in your journey.

[@Jbarton81]

Prepper Potpourri Thank you! The last week has been full of great information and even a little trial and error from just such sources. 😊

[@amandaatchley6873]

Beautiful comment!!!

[@polly8844]

I agree!

[@jjo5375]

Well done. Not too fast. And you didn't assume your viewers know each and every step, or the reason for them. Valuable video. Thanks! : )

[@jerieb2809]

Great video, FYI Death Valley is one of the few places in the US that is below sea level.

[@jaytee2642]

You've taken away a lot of the voodoo mystery of canning, but where I am now has an electric stove. I've cooked on gas my whole life and I'm still getting familiar with the heat adjustment on this electric stranger in my kitchen. My next home WILL have gas, so I'll probably wait til then before I dive into the Mysteries of Canning. It doesn't look quite so scary and intimidating any more. Thank you.❤

[@AmeenahAli1]

Thank you a million times over for doing this detailed video, you’re a great teacher! God Bless...

[@gregbrownward4347]

agreed. she is a PRO !!!

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

Thank you! I'm trying to get the word out that for those who may have glass Mason-type canning jars within the distance of the concusion blast of a nuke strike, the preps are subject to breakage from the concusion of the blast. Recommend cardboard, bubble wrap, rags or whatever you have, to place between the glass jars. May our God continually bless you and yours!

[@asylum119]

Thank you. I am an introvert who has taught myself to use Linux, code in multiple languages and self learnt many other things in life but this canning voodoo has me looking up online vids like I was Sheldon teaching myself to swim.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

I hope you enjoy canning

[@Jchathe]

Haha, I enjoyed reading your comment 😂

[@Hunter-vp3he]

This lady is so adorable! Thank you for this helpful video.

[@forgedabouted]

Just wanted to let you know me and my girlfriend really appreciate you! I have invested a few hundred after subscribing to you only a few days ago and me and my girlfriend are so ready to begin canning and dehydrating food ! Love and bless!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Happy canning!

[@chewsgum]

I just found your channel yesterday and I have to say I absolutely love it! Today’s the day I get that canner out of the box!

[@rachelpotsko3305]

This was so great! I am new to canning and so excited to get started.

[@Whatisalex]

Thanks for the video! I’m not new to bath canning tomatoes etc and now I’m use to doing that, I’m moving into meats and stews, etc. this was really helpful in choosing a pressure canner. I can’t wait to go out and get the supplies now and get started (and clean my fridge 😂) Thank you!!!

[@justin806806]

Broke my heart hearing this nice lady talking to Google spying devices in her home :(

[@PrepperPotpourri]

OK Google and I are best friends...

[@631959]

Thanks so much. You have eased my mind about Pressure Canning. I thought it was much more difficult and dangerous. Thanks again.

[@christywright2188]

I'm a beginner canner and really appreciate all canning information you've provided thank you. Great idea using round steak wouldn't have thought of that. I've never tried fried Cabbage but will be this year. Your whole meal looked delicious thank you again. Missouri Wrightchk

[@patriciamiller-schwartz6767]

Bought a American Pressure Canner. Yes I'm one of those who is a bid scared. I enjoyed this video and learn alot. Will be watching again and again. I'll be reading my manual very carefully with a high lighter in hand. Thank you.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You will do just fine. Enjoy your canner :)

[@KahlestEnoch]

So the next time someone tells you the got a pressure canner as a gift and they leave it in their cupboard, tell them the can ship it to me in Canada I will gladly take it off their hands lol. Thank you for this video.

[@vivalafrance9547]

Wow \sage advice on using a real pressure canner. So appreciate the USDA LINK TOO!!!

[@ninababy8]

You are such a great teacher! You have made me happy that invested in a Presto digital. But so much of this relates. Thank you

[@CookingwithCatLover0330]

I'm watching this again. I pulled out my All American Canner today. I messed up as the lid wasn't on right and I didn't notice it in time. I will start over tomorrow. It's not a fail if you learn and I did. Thanks for all the videos on canning. I am rewatching them and the Canuary Videos.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Oh no! It can happen.

[@kirstinjohnsonerikson7080]

Thank you SO MUCH for helping me through my fear of using a pressure canner. Tomorrow is the day! I feel much more confident about the entire process.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You got this!

[@debiscooking9770]

Enjoyed your video. I especially liked that you took this video all the way to the end and showed how to prepare it. Well done my dear!

[@mirimum57]

This is great! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge :)

[@kimberlygiacometti6041]

I re-use spent lids for my dehydrated foods. Just my 2 cents. Still a bit 'scared'; but not the right word. I am watching your video....and reading my manual 'on line'. Yes to all that were gifted a pressure canner....google your make and model and there is sure to be a manual for your canner. Again, my folks 'pressure cooked' beef stew; made fruit preserves by cooking the jams for a while(never water bathed); we survived a year after her 'canning preserves'. Those jams never lasted a year...so again, no worries of poisoning. Sara(Ourlivinghomestead) got me to finally do 'waterbath canning'; I think your video will ease my mind enough to do 'pressure canning'...TY so very much.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You CAN do it!

[@ilovelucy654]

you are a great teacher. thank you..

[@garyzweigle5860]

You tube suggested your video of ‘before you buy a pressure canner’ yesterday and I watched it, noting you recommended watching this video afterwards. I just purchased an All American 915 pressure canner because although I wanted a larger one, this one fits in the limited space I have for clearance on my stovetop minus the overhang of the upper oven above the stove. I smiled seeing you still using a pan to heat your lids even though you stated earlier that it is not required anymore. Old habits die hard, huh? I also had a good laugh when you asked Google about Colorado Springs elevation because my Google device heard you so I heard the answer in stereo. Anyway, looking forward to using my new pressure canner even more after watching these two videos of yours! Thank you!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Enjoy your new canner!

[@Tomes23]

Very comprehensive. Thank you ma’am!

[@longarmsupplies]

Thanks for posting your playlists on the Canuary video. I knew you'd have a video that explained the All American for me. Thank you so much!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SweetTater]

This is a very informative tutorial. Thank you so much.

[@susananderson9619]

Grandmoms lived with us when I was young. Grandmoms did alot of canning, freezing, so I'm a little familiar with pressure canning. But I'm 63 and on my own , now. Next week, with deposit of my social security, I'm buying a pressure canner.. I debated between canner or dehydrated. I can't afford a freezer dehydrated, unfortunately. Maybe after I get a few paychecks in near future. I don't have farm animals, not a garden, only one bush tomato plant lol. I hope to buy seasonal produce and meats on sale. I hope to get a months worth of canned stuff. I will have to move from this house in the next month or two. Thus just as produce booms . I'm praying I can do this. I'm in central Virginia.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You can do it!

[@TheDuglas63]

Absolutely wonderful tutorial , I feel a bit more confident. Thank you.

[@brendagallik6451]

Thank you for a great meal in a jar. Love it for the ease of dinner night. Looks yummy.

[@FredSmid]

Thanks very much for the effort you have made towards our success (and safety). Very easy and simple. I learned a lot more watching this than I did reading my Presto manual.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Glad you found the video of value. Happy canning!

[@lynnvail254]

Your instructions were thorough & clear. This video was easier to follow than the All-American manual. Thank you.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Glad it helped

[@craftsandcrabgrass1859]

Thank you so much for making this excellent, easy to understand video! I've done water bath canning for a year now, and my husband just surprised me two days ago by telling me to buy the pressure canner that I have been wanting, but after bringing it home, I was nervous about using it because I didn't know what to expect, and I don't have anyone to teach me (I learned water bath canning on my own as well). I've saved this video so I can watch it again, because I've got some carrots and beans from my garden that I want to preserve for the winter. You are an excellent teacher, and should give yourself a pat on the back for making such a great video!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

I love how we all learn from each other. I was glad I could help you on your canning journey. Happy canning!

[@victoriaarsenault6837]

This was the best video I’ve seen yet and gave me lots of courage to order my All American and give it a go. Thank you!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You can do it!

[@melboe6842]

Started canning in April. I have learned so much from you (and the canning community). I appreciate you spending your time to teach complete strangers a new skill. (Plus the whole, shtf things to think about - they don't all apply to me, but they are good to think about and keep in mind.)

[@PrepperPotpourri]

That is awesome!

[@sylviadasilva4870]

As I'm sitting here in my little apartment, waiting for my new pressure canner to be delivered, I started searching tutorials on how to do it properly. I cannot overstate how happy I am to have found this lady and her EXCELLENT videos!!! I have subscribed, and I'm sure that I'll be back often for further info as my knowledge grows. All I had to rely on was my mother, when I was a kid, canning at the end of every summer after harvesting from our garden. Thank you, a million times over!! (Oh, and wish me luck-at 69 yrs old, this is my 1st attempt at canning!) Plus, I have an electric stove!!!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You CAN do it!

[@pennynewell3459]

The de-bubbler, is also used to measure headspace. Great video.

New to canning! I’ve steam canned and water bath canned. Now I need to get a pressure canner so I can pressure can!

[@PrepperPotpourri]

I hope Santa delivers one this season :)

[@PrepperPotpourri]

[@MM-gn4db]

Great info!! None of my favorite recipes have "canning/processing times'' to them. How do I know how long to process them for? Where can I get "times" for salsa, already cooked beef stew, etc. Do I just follow the times for any salsa, or any beef stew recipe?

[@PrepperPotpourri]

It is not recommended to can your own recipes. That being said, I do. I process for the time that would be recommended for canning the meat or fish contained in the recipe by itself. In the case of beef stew, 75 minutes for pints and 90 minutes for quarts. I do not believe that pre-cooked salsa will change the processing time

5 Years ago I bought two 16 qt pressure canners at a thrift store for about $8.00 each. What a find, you can find a used one at all not. Took them out and used one for the first time this week, canned carrots. It worked great. I want to do beef stew now.

What a great thrift find!

I canned for years using 15 lbs of pressure. One day my mom came to visit while I was canning and she asked, why are you canning @ 15 lbs of pressure? LOL!!! That day, I learned I was supposed to be canning at 10 lbs of pressure! LOL! I absolutely love your videos!!!! You are a very good teacher!!!

[@lynhanna917]

great video, found you from The Kneady Homesteader. Here is a tip if you get a canning lid stuck in your kitchen sink strainer basket (they fit inside the basket and can be impossible to pry out with a knife or screwdriver) do not panic, bail out the water in the sink then get a drill or electric screw driver, put in the appropriate bit and attach a self tapping screw and just screw the screw into the lid. This screw will allow you to pull the lid out from the basket. The next time you are in the canning section of a store you will notice that there is a silicone gizmo that fits over your strainer basket to prevent lids from going where they are not wanted.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

I love The Kneady Homesteader's channel. Thanks for the tip.

[@momaisey]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am one of those who has bought a canner (about 3 months ago) and I'm petrified of using it. It is however, very shiny, from me polishing it every day though!....I find it difficult to read and understand instructions (I am more a visual learner) I have searched and searched for videos from someone who will show me the start to finish process. I don't mean just the filling jars or timing/pressure side of things, I mean the part where you put the water into your canner and measure it. It may sound a bit pathetic and trivial, but when you learn visually, it's a godsend. You are also very clear and calm in your instructions. So thank you once again. Morag (Scotland)

[@PrepperPotpourri]

The hard part is just starting the process. Once you do it you will be fine :)

[@crawfords2009]

I knew this was the right video when you said "and people are afraid it might explode" Bingo!! That was so me. I was a little nervous but your step by step instructions did bring some confidence. Thank you doesn't seem to cover it 🤗

[@wandawilliams3110]

I've been watching so many people pressure can. However, you've given me the courage to start. I too have the "Presto 23, quart canner". Thank you for the awesome video. Now, I'm not so scared. Subscribing.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

You can do it!

[@anonz975]

Soooo true! I bought a pressure canner and left it in the box for 9 months. It is scary the first time! So I eventually did a dry run with just water and brought it up to pressure...and it didn't explode...so I used it to can.

Yep, once you gain up enough courage to try it you are fine
