My grandfather had wooden troughs full of kosher Morton’s salt in his smokehouse. He would bury whole ham hocks in it for a period of time to draw out moisture, pull them out and pack more clean salt and black pepper on them. Then he wrapped them in old burlap seed or feed bags and hung them from iron hooks to smoke them. The memory of being sent out to the smokehouse with a knife and plate to cut a slab of ham for the family dinner still brings back those smells, something few now know.

I store my salt in mason jars with the plastic canning lid. Don’t use metal because the salt will destroy it.
@girgriffin4902
@girgriffin4902 Жыл бұрын
The plastic lids are also good for balsamic vinegar. I bought some in quart jars, with a regular metal lid, at a local farm store and when I went to use it, it took a while to get it off because it had rusted so bad. Btw, peanut butter jar lids, mayo lids and parmesan shaker lids all fit beautifully on a regular mouth canning jar, for any non canning storage uses. So if you make your own spice blends or want to have a shaker of diatomaceous earth handy to sprinkle in the garden, you've got a great little container to do it.

I use the lid from a Kraft Romano Asiago cheese blend container on a squatty little 8 oz Ball canning jar to keep baking soda by my kitchen sink. I love that I can just easily shake out some baking soda onto a pan with stuck on baked or sticky food residue. I'll have to try some of my other lids from prepared foods to see how they fit and if they make sense for cross-purposes. Great tip! Thank you!

Salt is incredibly important and necessary, of course, but also (I believe) it's mostly taken for granted, by many. When something is ubiquitous and cheap, most people don't really give it a second thought. I bet at least 95% of the population would never think, _"I'd better have a bunch of salt stored, just in case."_ If salt was suddenly not available, or very hard to get, people would then understand exactly how valuable it is. There have been wars fought over salt. Including, but not limited to, the 'Salt War of 1482 - 84,' and the 'Salt War of 1540.' I don't see salt just no longer being available, ever, but I can easily imagine *SEVERE* disruptions in our supply chains. I expect it. I've got *LOTS* of salt stored in various containers, including sealed #10 cans, but I also just added (2) 10 - pound buckets of Redmond Real Salt to my shopping cart, and I'll be buying more. As the state of the country (and the world) keeps deteriorating, I'm stocking - up on everything I can. I've got a really bad feeling, and I learned decades ago to trust my gut instinct. Thank you for the video.

@@RoseRedHomestead I'm sorry I can't give you more details. I came across complaints in reviews on Amazon when I was shopping for Pink Himalayan Sea Salt. There were enough that I took note of it and didn't buy the brand(s) people expressed concern about. I think I have a vague recollection that people thought some pink sea salt was pink because it was chemically altered, but I'm just making a guess. I just noted the concerns and moved on. In trying to find more information about it today, I came across one article that said Black salt turns pink when ground and can be substituted for pink sea salt in that way. I did find another article about research testing of pink sea salt conducted by an independent lab (NRAUS), in Australia, where they tested 31 samples of salts available in that country and found that some samples contained aluminum and lead. Another source added thallium, mercury, and radioactive elements (radium, uranium, plutonium, polonium, etc.) to the list of potential negative components present in pink sea salt. It's just information to be aware of, and each person should make the best choice for their needs and comfort level. Pink sea salt is being portrayed as a less healthy option than it once was though.

I have many salts, but one I keep in stock that most people don't consider is potassium based instead of calcium based. I have Redmond's, pink Himalayan, kosher, table salt with iodine as well as without. I don't have enough stored though. I almost bout a 50lb bag but it had the yellow prussiate of soda in it which is not good for fermenting (if I ever get around to trying it), which most store salts have, including kosher. The sea salts do not have that added, even the cheap ones. As far as the iodine in the salt, many doctors & dietitians have said it isn't enough to do much nor is it always the kind our bodies need. Go figure. Thank you Jim & Pam for all you do! Many Blessings from Deborah in West Virginia!

Pam, in reference to the iodized salt, is it the iodine that would become ineffective? Would the salt content remain the same? Like you, I always want to know "why". Thanks so much for the wonderful videos that I feel I can trust.

@@RoseRedHomestead Hi Pam. In South Africa all I have is Iodized salt in bulk. If this is all I have, I will hzve to use ut for all preserving and preparing food. In your estimation, would only the iodine become uneffective but the salt stays the same and will not become harmful. I have to use it for pickling, making biltong (curing meats), cooking, canning and such. I have no other means; things are not too great here as I'm sure you are aware. Badically my cincern and question to you the scientist (as I am definitely not): I'm worried that there could be a chemical reaction after the fact and that my canned/fermented goods could become toxic. Please could you help? God bless you and Jim for your great teachings. Blessings from South Africa. 😘

Recently I purchased the Real Salt container. I have used it for cooking and baking and am very pleased with the taste and texture. I am also so glad that it was purchased in the container as that makes storage so convenient. Also I went to the store to purchase pickling salt (time of the year) and the price had doubled since last time I purchased ( in the fall). So you are spot on to state buy it before the prices continue to dramatically increase. Thank you Pam and Jim for another excellent video. Your advise and information is outstanding

I bought 25 pounds of the Redman kosher salt also and sealed it in containers I did not see the bucket of salt that you have because I would have bought that. I like it a lot. Thank you for introducing me to this way back. An old wives tale is it’s bad luck to run out of salt. I think that is a left over from when salt was used for barter. Thank you for all that you do.

I started storing salt about a year ago. I think you mentioned something about it in one of your videos, so I started doing it. I have no regrets! You can buy Himalayan salt at the Dollar Tree. I can't remember the size of the package, but it's pretty decent sized for $1.25. I am now fermenting, so I'm using regular salt that isn't iodized. I do want to get some Redman's for long term use and I'm curious about preserving meats with it. I'd love to see you do a video on that. I am raising quail for meat and eggs. I'm curious about preserving fowl with the salt. What do you think? Would it work? Thank-you for always concise and valuable information on sustaining our lives through proper food storage and supplies.

It really helped me with my arthritis, that and changing my diet, there’s a book I read about it by Dr Pavano, it has many types of therapies that people have tried, i found what worked for me. When I see those commercials and I see the psoriasis patient with a small patch of skin and they’re complaining I always laugh because that was nothing compared to what I had.
