Pressure Canning Korean Beef for the Pantry Shelf

[@miamor282]

I am Korean, and I have been canning korean food. I found it hard to find canning recipes for Asian food. So, one day, I would like to start a channel and share how I do it. My recipe is a bit different from this one, but kudos to you! This looks good!!!

[@miamor282]

gochujang is red pepper powder and glutinous rice porridge based paste fermented with yeast from fermented soybean. Mild sweetness, spicy, delicious stuff

[@vondamorphew3505]

Miamor282…sounds like a good idea!

[@growandpreserve]

Wonderful, Mia! No doubt this is an Americanized version. Great idea to start a channel yourself! We all need more variety in our pantries and on our plates.

[@janecantrell7155]

I think they call this Bulgogi. It used to be my favorite dish when I lived in Korea. NOW, I am excited to consider canning it! AWESOME!!!!!

[@jmsuther01]

I would love that!

[@dorothybrooks7830]

I made this!! I canned six pints and we tried it last night. I served it over fried rice and topped with chopped green onions. I found Gochujang and used two tablespoons, it wasn’t as hot as I expected. This is definitely a winner! Thank you for this recipe, I love your channel.

[@growandpreserve]

Great, Dorothy! So glad you like it!

[@crazymama73]

So happy for you to share all of these wonderful varieties of meals in jars! Thank you again for sharing! I love how so many that you have posted are cold, it is so much easier!

[@growandpreserve]

Totally agree cold packing is so much easier (and fewer pans to clean)!

[@FFDfirechef]

OK, .... I made this tonight with only one modification, I added about a 1/4 cup of "Panda Express" sweeet red chile sauce to the mix, allowed to simmer on the stove for about 4 hours and then served over white rice. OMFG this is hands down the most amazing recipe ever. Can not wait to make, and can several more batches. Ms. Carter I have been binge watching your videos and you are are definitely an inspiring lady. I'll be canning about 12 pounds of ground beef tomorrow.

[@growandpreserve]

Excellent! Thanks so much for reporting back.

[@lorimcmichael5846]

Oh Carter! What a fabulous project... so delicious. It's hilarious. Often when im watching someone else prepare a good recipe (as Becky did in this case) i say to the screen, "you should can that just like Carter does! 😂❤

Awesome, Shannon!

[@kathycumming637]

Gosh this looks amazing! Definitely going to make this one. Carter would you be able to do a show on what each cut of beef can be used for in Canning. Again I'm new here so could I substitute the Stew Beef for another cut?

[@growandpreserve]

Interesting, Kathy. I'll try to work this info in as I can. You could certainly use either chuck roast or brisket in this recipe.

[@teresatrump8366]

Looks delicious.

Thanks, Kim! Good to see you here!

[@ttschrock7126]

This is delicious. I made it yesterday and just love it. I also did the mango salsa.... I loved it more when it was raw. The Korean Beef, oh my goodness it is delicious!! I may have to can it next weekend!!! We will go through those last 5 jars quickly.

[@ttschrock7126]

Will you do a pantry video of your most favorites to can (and eat) and the ones you will not be doing over?

[@growandpreserve]

So glad you like this one! Give the mango salsa a few weeks on the shelf for the flavors to settle in.

[@growandpreserve]

Fun! I'll put it on the list. Thanks for the suggestion!

Looks good I may try canning some.

Thanks, Chevy! Let me know if you make it!

[@barbarawiley9853]

This is such a great idea. I will try it this week. I just purchased the presto digital canner and am looking forward to using it. I have the all american 921 its too big for smsll batches. I would probably use gochugaru/ korean chili flakes in this instead of gochugang. I believe goghugang has thickeners that may not be safe in canning. Your substitutions work too.

[@growandpreserve]

Barbara, you're going to love the Presto electric canner. I only pull out the AA these days if I have a larger batch.

[@karenm7433]

These looks fantastic and I LOVE Korean beef

[@growandpreserve]

Excellent, Karen! I think you'll like this one then!

Korean Ground Beef is a meal in regular rotation at our house. We cook Bulgogi as well. I never thought about canning either one. I am going to try pressure canning the Korean Ground Beef because we have so much ground beef right now. I love your pantry meal videos.

[@growandpreserve]

Thanks, Mavs! I bet it's great with ground beef.

This looks amazing added to list! Even though I've just spent the last 3 days filming and canning unplanned due to an emergency. So glad it's over but somehow I'm now planning more 😂 I think I have a problem

It's a good problem to have, digit! Did you lose a freezer?

[@mrs.bissonnette7498]

That looks tasty! Are we supposed to wash our lids prior to using?

[@growandpreserve]

Personal choice. The government has figured out that 10 minutes of processing sterilizes everything, so they say washing lids and sterilizing jars are no longer necessary.

Thanks, Paula! Keep me posted!

[@madmecyr]

So funny. I saw that episode of Becky's and tried it last night. I was thinking it would be an easy canning conversion and here you are this morning! I did have that Korean seasoning it called for and I only put in a quarter what it called for and hubby still thought it was too hot. I think I might try the squeeze of siracha next time. I'm going to see if I can divide each ingredient into each jar rather than mix and then divide. A clove of garlic/jar; 1/4t pepper each jar etc.

[@growandpreserve]

What a riot! We're definitely on the same wavelength

[@carolallen6219]

I bet that is delicious! I would never have thought of canning it as a shelf meal even though I did see Becky’s video when she made the dish. I’m thinking she did it as freezer meals. We love gochujang here. I renamed my typical fried rice dish to Fusion Fried Rice because I use Chinese five spice, gochujang & tandoori global fusion rub by the spice hunter. It is a blend with several items popular in Indian dishes like cinnamon, cardamom, coriander, etc. The rice is hugely popular in my family!! we don’t find gochujang super spicy. Thank you for this idea!!

Carol, your fusion fried rice sounds amazing!

Hi Carter... I so wished you would share your Cauliflower Mash Recipe and how you make in the Vitamix... I have gotta try the Korean Beef as I love it and served on Cauli Mash... Also you can ship me some of those home grown GA/TN Tomatoes any time! LOL

[@growandpreserve]

Hey, Debbie. I'll try to get caulimash in an upcoming video. Super easy. Steamed cauli into the blender with cream and butter, salt and pepper to taste. Blend it up. Yum.

[@tdoonie8244]

This looks really good Carter. I'm definitely going to give this a go. We love the flavor of Korean beef, and I like that I can control the ingredients in this one versus some of the store sauces.

[@growandpreserve]

Good, T! Keep me posted. I'm with you on some of the unnecessary ingredients in many of the store products.

[@ShannonLivesey]

Also, you can grab a small container of gochujang ( go-chu-gang) at Trader Joes. Its in a small red container. Its so so good!!😊

[@growandpreserve]

Good to know, Shannon! I'll do it the legit way next time!

[@joferris3661]

the marinade tasted really good going into the jars. everything went as planned. I did quarts. Your instructions are great and clear, really like the video. Sadly, eating this one was kind of boring.... slightly spicy beef chunks. I followed your measurments/recipes exactly, so I don't know if it's supposed to be like this or if I missed something. My possible tweaks, cuz I LOVE korean food, this however did not taste like korean food. I think I would omit some of the broth and make more of the marinade if I were to can it again, and possibly let the marinade sit on the raw meat overnight before canning. but it may be perfectly flavourful if just slow cooked and eaten right away. I'm wondering if the pressure for 90 min kind of eliminates that nice tangy, sweet, gingery, garlicy flavour from the marinade

[@growandpreserve]

Feel free to tweak the flavors to suit you, Jo!

[@brendahone2509]

I love Bulgogi and this looks like its that. I need to try making this soon. My only problem is adding the oil? I thought we were not suppose to use oil in canning? Thanks for showing us this. yumo

[@growandpreserve]

Yes, I believe it is quite similar to Bulgogi. Small amounts of oil are not a problem at all. You will find oil in many hot pack canning recipes, including those from Ball, as veggies need to be sauteed, meats need to be browned, etc.

[@susantester5398]

I made this Korean beef and it was delicious!! I was going to make 2 batches but had to stop in middle of canning. How long do you feel the soy sauce mixture will last in the fridge?

[@growandpreserve]

So glad you like it, Susan! I would say at least 3-4 days in the fridge for the sauce would be fine.

[@debbodenhamer7140]

Carter, do you typically replace sugar with the same amount of allulose in your recipes? I just got some allulose & I’m excited to make more of your canning recipes. But I wasn’t sure if it was a 1:1 replacement for the sugar. Thanks!!

[@growandpreserve]

Hey, Deb. I do a 1:1 replacement, but technically allulose is 70% as sweet as sugar, so add more if you prefer. Keep me posted!

[@lisapop5219]

Gochujang is a spicy fermented soybean paste that is a staple of Korean cooking. It is available in the Asian food section of grocery stores. It comes in a little red tub. There are 2 other varieties that are similar but not the same, one green the other brown. They are very full of umami goodness. They also seem to last forever in the fridge. I've never thought about canning it before.

[@growandpreserve]

Excellent info, Lisa! It sounds delish.

[@lisapop5219]

@growandpreserve it is but it is very different at first. You're welcome

Question: how do you make your cauliflower mash? It must be good if you fooled David!!!

[@growandpreserve]

Hey, Gina! Steam cauli florets until fork tender (about 12 minutes). Add to high speed blender with a bit of ghee/butter/butter flavored coconut oil, salt, pepper and milk of choice (I use full fat coconut milk). Blend until smooth. Let me know if you try them!

[@karenpage9383]

Well dang! Add me to the list of those who plan on making this ASAP!!! Oh and Carter, I realized I was hoarding the asian plum sauce so guess who just brought home more plums while they are still in season so I don't have to ration the first batch! I got a question for you too.... do you see any reason why I couldn't dry can red potatoes like you did the russet? I know red are less starchy and more "waxy" but I would think that makes them a better candidate 🤷‍♀ I have an excessive amount because the Red Norlands out performed the 3 other varieties we grew this year.

[@karenpage9383]

OK, I'm going to answer my own question 🤣 I just went digging online for more documentation on dry canning potatoes and found a recipe by The Canning Diva, where she went so far as to have her potatoes laboratory tested! She says to use russet, red, or yellow in the recipe. So that answers that!!! Guess I officially have 2 canning projects on the to-do list!

[@growandpreserve]

Hey, Karen! Sorry I missed this earlier. Yes, you can definitely dry can red potatoes. So glad you like the plum sauce. Let me know how your potatoes and the Korean Beef turn out!

[@growandpreserve]

So interesting! Do you still have the link to her discussion on test results? Would you email it to me?

[@growandpreserve]

Just found the article. Thanks so much for pointing this out, Karen!

[@karenpage9383]

@@growandpreserve My pleasure! The more I learn about how they can in other countries and in the Amish community, the more I want to venture out from "approved" recipes. I am curious though how one goes about getting your canned food laboratory tested?!? I've been digging in her website and haven't found more info on that yet. I did see some stats about how low the incidence of botulism is in the US. I remember Leisa at SuttonsDaze did some research and found like 75% of all cases were indigenous peoples of Alaska canning seal or whale blubber. The research Canning Diva found was that only 43 cases over a total of 18 years were from home canned veggies, and the CDC states some of those cases were from folks who ignored signs of spoilage or didn't know any canning procedures or that there are risks involved with just sticking food in a jar and screwing the ring on 🙄 I do wish there was a crowd sourced way of funding more testing by the NCHFP to get more recipes "approved", if only for the sake of the people who are terrified to venture off script.

When you put the jars in your electric canner did you skip the jar warming process?

When I do a cold pack, I add the filled jars to the canner before it starts the "jar warming" process. That way, everything is gently brought up to temp.
