Sometimes my vacuum sealer won't seal regular mouth jars, and it's not because of knicks. But I learned a great tip from Rose Red Homestead: take an extra regular mouth lid and lay it upside down on top of the lid you want sealed to your jar. Then vacuum seal your jar. When you remove the attachment and that extra lid, your jar will be sealed with that bottom lid. Works every time for me now. Just thought I'd share.

[@theIAMofME]

THANK YOU! I have the same issue with regular mouth jars and the foodsaver. I would put an extra lid under there and it sealed BOTH down! Now, I know to invert it! Again, thank you!!

The molasses I buy comes in a sealed glass jar and lasts forever it seems. I finally ran out and had to buy a new jar and I had sticker shock because the price had gone up so much. I think I had had the old jar for 10+ years!

[@n.watson8497]

When I have a recipe calling for brown sugar, I add the "white" sugar directly to the recipe and then add the molasses separately. For one cup of dark brown sugar, I will add 1 cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons molasses to the recipe. It always works and saves a lot of time.

[@deannajordan9031]

I wondered about doing that. Until reading this, i would mix them together to make it the texture of brown sugar. I wondered if the textute was part of the attribute needed for the recipe.

[@cheryladams5175]

I buy maple syrup from a syrup farm in glass gallon jugs. Once opened it should be refrigerated. I put the syrup in a pot snd bring it up to a boil and can in 8 oz jars. Never done molasses..

[@theIAMofME]

That is what I was thinking. I have those Costco (Kirkland) plastic bottles of syrup (that have shrank btw). One time I didn't refrigerate it. There was this weird white stuff when I went to pour some. Looked it up and it was a type of mold. I worry that repackaging might be a problem over the long haul. Once you open it...I don't know. It's good he re vaccumed sealed it though. I do however do this with my honey.

Rudy.... you can also use a piece of "press & seal" under the lid when you put it back on. Seals the lid, not as good as vacuum sealing, but the seal is between the glass jar and lid and adds extra sealing power to the existing cap on that jug

If you have difficulty with a food saver lid sealer not sealing, try giving the sealer, still attached and pressurizing, a small turn and that should create a good seal.

You need to do this with hand sanitizer too. The alcohol in the sanitizer breaks down the plastic over the years.

[@TheTraceyLynne]

Excellent suggestion for long term storage, will definitely do this. Unfortunately for me though, it’s gonna take me a lot longer. I don’t know why, but our molasses in Canada, is very thick and slow to pour. We have an old saying “slow as molasses “. Yours just pours out nicely. And ours comes in little milk type cardboard containers. So I’m definitely going to switch all over to glass, but will take a long time 🤣. Thanks for all your help and ideas, I truly appreciate it!

[@kanderson8981]

You're right Tracy, our molasses are way thicker. Must have something to do with the processing of it, not sure but man its tasty stuff! Good on oatmeal:)

[@monana8706]

I usually heat my jar of molasses by running it under hot water to "thin" it and it pours out well then. Allows me to get every wonderful drop of molasses from my jars😊

There's a big difference in cane juice, cane syrup and molasses. Unless i was educated incorrectly molasses is made from sorghum, not sugar cane. We have an "Old Mennonite" community here that raises sorghum and makes molasses with horse drawn grinding/pressing process. I love to watch the juice wind backs and forth across the hot griddle being cooked over a wood fire.

[@luwrolstad1274]

Thank you, @Amanda H. I appreciate being corrected, so i don't information others incorrectly. I just thought the molasses was cooked longer than sorghum, hence the color and taste difference. I prefer sorghum for taste.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you a heads up on pet food. I was talking to my PetSmart manager today and he said his vendor came in for Royal Canin and I forget the second brand, but they are owned by Mars. He said they are stopping production of pet food for the foreseeable future because they can't source enough of what they need to make both people and pet food. I looked up what Mars owns for pet food when I got home. They produce 41% of the pet food in North America! Right now it's a couple of their brands, but if this gets any worse it could get really bad.

Wow thanks for showing that you vacuum sealed the maple syrup. I thought that you couldn’t do liquids.

[@imstillright9261]

Honey has stayed good for many many years. If syrups or honey is reduced to around 82% total solids. It needs no canning and will resist bacterial growth for a very long time. Normally store-bought honey will be in that range of 80 to 82% total solids. Maple syrup is typically around the 75% range and will spoil without refrigeration or further reduction. In the case of sweet viscous liquids, it is the higher density of sugars to liquid ratio which prohibits bacterial growth.
