My Dad had 32 aunts and uncles. Both of his parents were 1 of 18. They were the youngest of their 17 siblings. My Dad has 167 first cousins. You guys are creating a legacy that used to be common place. Do the older kids ever sit down and think about the possibility of how many nieces and nephews they could have? Or how many grandchildren you could possibly have? How fun!

When you stack your canned goods, please put a piece of cardboard between the bottom and next row. It lessens the direct weight on the jars below. Please don’t stack more than one high. Your beans look awesome! Dehydrate some Roma tomatoes,grind into powder when done….great to use in so many soups and dishes! Dehydrate yellow squash, cut like potato chips, and zucchini. Great for snacks. Slice apples….slice bananas…..great snacks that are dehydrated. Enjoy, Love, Bev in Maine.

Be careful stacking your canning jars. The weight of the one on top can break the seal of the one it's on top of. It can also provide enough weight that if there's any fluctuation in temp it can seal it back and you would never know the seal was broke, but the bacteria already wormed it's way in.

When my kids were little I canned beef, chicken, rabbit, and as many vegetables as I could get my hands on. It wasn't unusual to have over 500 quarts at the seasons end. When I looked at it all it gave me such gratification. Now I only do tomatoes, potatoes and winter squash. I have never done dried beans but watching you has dried beans on my grocery list and I'm going to try them. My family is grown and out on their own and my husband has passed but watching you and your family brings back so many memories. For that I thank you. God Bless.

I found that my cabinets had more space than I thought on the lower ones for my jar’s of canned goods with organization. And in closets at the bottom in the cases for the jar’s and so on. Anywhere you can find for the boxes to fit but not in the garage because you do not want them in the heat. Even in the basement on some shelves you build with wood and big wall bricks.

[@lynhanna917]

what I love about canning the beans is you can use the liquid in the dish because you know exactly what went in the jars. It is so nice when you run out of something you don't have to go to a store you just "shop" your store room. You do a phenomenal job I have no idea how you can do all that you do and have a new baby. I cut back on tomato plants this year and froze tomatoes as they ripened on the vine. Saw a youtuber who cans her tomatoes with no spices but salt. Instead of trying to find a recipe that goes with spicy italian tomatoes she adds the spices that are needed when cooking the dish. I thought this was brilliant.

[@midlifemama8420]

Yes. I am freezing tomatoes and will take them out to can salsa. A friend said to cut the things out and cut in half and when they defrost the skins come right off. Then it’d easier to chop and make.

[@lynhanna917]

@@midlifemama8420 You don't even need to cut them in half as they thaw the skins fall right off. What I have done is wash them, let them dry then as I am putting them in bags I cut the stem end out just by running a small knife in a circle around the stem as this takes most of the hard core out. When they thaw it is harder to remove that part because the tomato really doesn't hold it's shape. I found putting frozen tomatoes in my crock pot on low helps to thaw them faster (just pull thawed tomatoes from the bottom) remove skins and toss tomato in your sauce pot.

May I suggest you keep a notebook of what foods you can AND where you’re storing the food, along with a list of the foods you’re storing posted on the inside of the cabinet door where you store the food…I also can foods, I live in a small apartment and have to be creative in finding places to store the foods. If I didn’t make these lists I would be at a loss to know where I’m storing my food… so happy to see you canning, what a blessing for your tribe… God bless you…❤️

[@rosifaith]

I love that you're learning to can! My mom was Amish so canning was passed down as easily as learning to wash the dishes well! Did you know that you can use your pressure canner to steam can instead of having an extra solely waterbath canner? Just let it vent for ten minutes like you would for pressure canning, then start your timer for waterbath times. Makes it so easy!

[@OurTribeofMany]

I wondered about that! Thanks for the tip!!!

[@georgiegirl6815]

Amazon has rechargeable desiccant packets for moisture absorption. Put them in the jar with the kale chips. They will change from orange to green according to the moisture level in the jar. Great idea to can cooked ground beef.

[@caroljane75]

Congrats on your canning success. Helpful hint with the ground beef that I learned just as you are about to. If you can it in broth, it just dumps out. When you can it without broth, which is what I do, it’s a little harder to get out of a regular mouth jar. Much much easier with a wide mouth jar. Another thing with hamburger that I never thought of until I saw a KZbinr do. Meatballs! I hate rolling them. But if you just suck it up and do a lot at one time it’s easier. Roll them, bake for about 10 minutes….don’t want to try to can a glob of raw hamburger cause won’t work…put in jars with a liquid, water, broth, sauce. Real quick meatball hoagies or any other dish. You can’t can grains. Can only use spices and herbs…or veggies…as a filler in the meatballs. If you stack your jars, you can lose the seal on the bottom ones. Put a piece of cardboard in between them. I bet that soup you made would be good canned! Try canning chunks of beef…like roast. It is so good! Good luck! Have fun!

[@jgutscher3339]

You're doing a great job with canning! Waterbath canning is similar but you cover your jars with water. If you don't have a waterbath canner you can use a huge soup pot that has a lid and put a pressure canning rack on the bottom so the jars don't break. You are being very productive in your stage of life with little people. God bless you all.

[@marseillestephenson1984]

We've switched from water bath to steam canner, and I recommend that bcuz it uses less water/takes less time to heat before you add the jars

[@slgoad]

Also be aware if you run short of vegetables to can, many larger farms , near the end of the harvesting, have "you pick" time for vegetables. I have picked tomatoes, green beans and corn to can/preserve. If you pick yourself, the cost is discounted. Make sure to take some boxes, bins, etc to bring vegetables home. Also, it is possible to can chicken, pork, spaghetti sauce, and soup base. The possibilities are endless. Way to go on learning new skills. I am of the same mindset, always like to be learning and trying new experiences. Love watching the older kids cooking and experimenting with their own spin on recipes.

I also bought a ball fresh tech waterbath canner... I absolutely love that also... you can do large batch canning it that... things I love about both canners mentioned... both a very easy to use, both are electric so it frees up your stove..

[@terryhenderson424]

Keep your assorted glass jars from grocery store purchased foods then make spice mixes, spice packet mixes, and even quick bread mixes. If (lol) you have storage capability, from back in the day and ever since, i prefer to measure and portion individual batches per container as opposed to making a multiple batch mix to dip from when actually bsking; it seems like the levening agents don't stay distributed evenly. - The beauty of these items is that they are more of a measure and shake/ stir activity and can go far quicker for a prolonged time's worth (dependent upon quantity made) of prepping with upto a reasonable cost savings.

Hi Sarah. I'm of italian descent and both sides of my family are from Italy. When you make Italian lasagna you should only use ricotta cheese mixed with parmesan/romano cheese and of course your eggs, salt and pepper. I live in Philadelphia PA and we have the Italian market on 9th street and a lot of Italian restaurants. Ricotta cheese is the real Italian method of making lasagna. Hopefully I didn't offend you. I know its delicious with other cheeses and that's okay if you like it. Linda from Philadelphia PA

[@aprilmiller2982]

Way to go busy momma! Something I've learned over the years is to make large quality and either freeze or can leftovers. Last two years when I make soups I make in large roaster oven. Have a meal for now and several for the future. One mess and home cooked meals with no mess later. Like I've said before, canning is addictive, healthier, and cheaper after the initial start up. Water canning is going to be a breeze for you. So much faster production! If your family love salsas and relishes there are some amazing recipes for them on pinterest. I usually do triple batches because I share my canning with friends and family.

I noticed that you stacked your canned beans in your cabinet. I read that you need to put a piece of cardboard between the layers to keep the bottom ones from becoming unsealed. I learned that from roseredhomestead on KZbin.

I’m so glad you started canning, it’s so wonderful to go to the cubbard and have already cooked food that only needs heated.

I mean this when I say this.....I'm so so proud of y'all for cooking up ahead of time and canning your foods so you can have good health. We do the same thing. We love cooking up ahead of time and canning my foods.

You remind me of what I used to do 20+ years ago for my family as far as canning. Every year we’d have a big veggie garden so I would can everything from the garden (lots of tomatoes.) I’m from NJ so we have a really good growing season. I also did meat and fruit. Our storage room was always filled with canned food. My kids also loved dried beef flavored with teriyaki.

Yes, we are the garden state 😃

😂 I love the caption with Peaces face at the end " Who are you talking to?" I got a good laugh out of that :)

That's a kombucha kit! I know because I just bought one and have my first brew on top of my fridge! 😁 I don't mind the real life noise, my house is just as loud with half the kids, lol. Your canning is amazing! Things like this I think teach my kods that you are never too late to learn a new skill.
