CANNING: Celery

[@gingernotturno5365]

nothing more exciting than the popping of canning jars :) it makes me happy

[@prayingitup3297]

Thank you for this; it has saved me so much time! Praying you and your family UP, sweet Heather!

[@blessedbloominghomestead9134]

I love canned celery, it's so versatile! Ever need a cream of celery soup & don't have time to run to the store? Make a white sauce and make your own, it's much better than store bought. (side note: I love hearing you "blabber"! You bring such joy to me!)

[@heatherinparis]

Love your longer videos focussing on what's happening in your day.....they're the next best thing to being able to drop by.

[@LindasPantry]

I love to can celery and carrots with dill it is so wonderful to have on the shelf great tutorial! Thumbs up as always :)

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

thanks Mama! OH I have to try combining them now! :D

[@myrarichins5618]

+Linda's Pantry I never thought of using dill, sounds delicious, gonna try that... :o)

[@ravenblackhawke]

Dear Daughter,, I save the soft inner celery leaves and chop them and add into tuna fish with diced onions, some lemon juice and Hellman's Mayo. Delicious!.......the rest I do can, and I love your video too. Change nothing Heather....the longer the better!!! Love your video's just the way they are informative, enthusiastic, filled with your endearing laughter, and you are, a very sweet gal:). Blessings and hugs:).

[@leighgoldsmith2917]

Love the long vids, with all the blabbering its just like you are talking to me while I am in my kitchen doing something or another, you keep me company.

[@seriouslyjesus]

Heather, thank you for your Joy! I have been watching your canning videos all day. I have been in a little bit of depression and I have been feeling overwhelmed by..."Everything...lol" and hearing your voice and seeing you taking such care with the food that you give to your family has been very healing for me. I love you Heather. Thank you.

[@pamelastokes2964]

I love and appreciate your videos. If some people don't like them, they don't have to hang around and watch them. It's that simple. You can't say it, but I can. I don't have a channel to worry about. I really enjoy the watching the whole process. Thanks for including us. Pam in South Carolina 🤗

[@countycalling]

I find myself searching your videos each time something new is coming up for me...I’m so grateful for your ability to share, I love your little giggle, your excitement when doing these videos. I really enjoyed this video. I have a box of celery coming to me and this will be great for the pantry for me and several neighbors. Thank you again as always. You’re a blessing

[@jenniferrosario1489]

I'm watching this video in March of 2021. I didn't go through the east coast power loss but I did go through 6 months without power after a category 5 hurricane. Unfortunately at the time my pantry was destroyed and I lost 95% of my canning jars which were all full at the moment. It was just heartbreaking 💔. Because we were hit by a previous category 5 hurricane🌀 3 weeks before and were without power for 2 weeks I had canned everything in my freezers so it wouldn't go bad. I'm working to have enough jars to can what we have in the freezers in case it's needed, plus filling my shelves. Buying them again has been a complete nightmare but I'm steady working towardsreaching my goal. Long way to go still. Love your long videos and your babbling.

[@melaniescoggins9133]

I love seeing the complete process from start to finish! Thank you so much

[@victoriawyatt9496]

I prefer you long videos because you teach SO much. Always a thumbs up, Heather!!!

[@gramalaney]

i prefer the longer videos as they show exactly how to do it ..... your videos are awesome thank you!

[@sheilawood1804]

I realize this is quite a while after the fact, however....you are very kindly doing these videos so we can learn and do and try. You make them as long or short as the spirit moves you to do. :)

[@nancyhahn4182]

I really enjoy hearing you talk during your videos! I always learn something new every time I watch you do a canning session. I'm one of those who likes to watch the entire process, so please keep the canning videos coming! Love ya, Heather!

[@Bellanoctumn]

I love your long winded videos!! as a staybst home mom, you are my company too!! I love to play you loudly while I mean my house and cook and can! please don't stop making these delightful videos!! 😍😍😍

[@dutchess1960420]

We lived 10 days without the power from that storm. I love canning knowing I have food🎉. I am enjoying watching you can.

[@Trayceg]

lol I couldn't help but giggle at your excitement about every detail of your canned celery ..."oh their poppin" "do you hear them popping away under there" too cute...good job! God Bless xox

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

hahaha it is the little things in life that seem to bring me the most happiness. hahahaha thanks for watchin!!!!!

[@kardiaheart]

Even though I will never can celery, I figured I'd watch your vid since sleep is being so elusive tonite and my bronchitis is keeping me up big time. I am amazed at you. Makes me wish I was 20 or 30 years younger. Seriously. I want to be just like you, in being totally committed to a healthier, more economical lifestyle. Some may call us all old fashion, but this is the future people, believe it. This is going to be our reality, not the Jetson's lifestyle. And I so want to embrace it as you have.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

kardiaheart oh no!!!!! so sorry you are sick! oh man, bronchitis is the worst too! take care of yourself, sweet Mama! rest those lungs as much as you can. takes weeks and weeks to recover from that! ugh. Keep me posted on how you are doing! xoxoxo

[@bethpalmer2720]

I love watching your videos, it's like I'm there for a visit. Please continue talking to yourself. Love, love

[@terryflores2487]

Appreciate the long winded videos. Love ya girl.

[@debbierodgers2955]

My name is Debbie Rodgers and I live in Leitchfield,Ky. I am a newbie and I don’t care how long ur videos are. I like it because u show and tell exactly everything u do.I did 25 pints of chicken thurs and fri. Everyone sealed except 2. My fault. I didn’t tighten my jars enough. When I got ready to take the rings off the lids just fell off. We had bbq chicken for supper with fried potatoes and brown beans and cornbread. It was delicious. I love watching your videos. I am a little nervous when I tighten the rings because I’m afraid I won’t get them tight enough. Second batch was perfect and beautiful. Now I’m going to do pinto beans.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

Fantastic!!!!! 😄👏🏻 I am so excited for you! So happy you found me AND in the rings, just twist them until you feel resistance. Then you’re 👍🏻 golden!

[@loriwilliams8709]

I want to can. I've tried Hatch Green Chilis and pickled green beans so far. My list is very long for what I want to try. I didn't know you could can celery. You just made it look so easy. I keep getting stopped at the thinking process of it all. Making it a big, daunting process. I've just recently realized you can do what you just did. Get a few bunches of celery, or a few bags of carrots or potatoes.....or WHATEVER. Clean the jars, chop the product, throw it in the canner and move on with your day. I want so much to just do it. You are my inspiration....keep doing what you do, Heather. If others don't like it they have a fast forward button to help them through. The rest of us just really love listening to your 'babbling' (as you call it). You are a very cool lady and I, for one, enjoy what you do. Peace in, peace out! : )

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

+Lori Williams awwww thanks mama!!!!! The sky is the limit for you! The prepping is probably the worst part. Once you actually start to can that's when the fun begins. Try buying petite organic carrots. Something prep replied. All you do is rinse and throw them in the jars. Start simple then work up from there. It's less intimidating I find. Green beans are fun and easy. You have to snap off the one end and them cut them if they are super long but easy and I know at our Kroger they are 99 cents a pound so you can get a lot of jars processed for about $10! Home canned green beans are amazing. Hahahaha just give me a holler anytime if you have any questions!!!!

[@anthroariel]

Your videos are as close as a person can get to a neighborhood coffee clatch where we sit in the kitchen and enjoy each other's company. I really miss having neighbors like you. Thank you for inviting me in! 🤶🌹💗

[@ordabee]

I had to come back to this video, canning celery today for the first time, and I realized you posted this video on my birthday

[@pamelastokes2964]

Love watching the entire process and your long videos! You don't give yourself enough credit. You are a very good teacher and I have learned so much from watching your videos. 🤗

[@sugarNspice6869]

I LOVE your 30 min. video's.Can't wait to see lots more LONG video!!

[@ShellbieeLou4]

I found you by browsing canning videos and I just adore you! You are just so sweet and you have a great attitude. I love to watch you can, it is so very relaxing. Also I am newish into canning so watching you jar up a few is really nice. Thanks for being you!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

That means so much to me. Thank you so much. Happy Canning, Mama!😁👏🏻❤️

[@geg3758]

So so excited, never knew i could have celery in my pantry. We've recently had a huge power outage here in Australia. My wake up to be self sufficient xxxx

[@NavSteff]

I love your long winded videos..LOL I have never canned, but have been watching every video you have to learn and to get ready for this adventure!

[@AussieAngeS]

Awesome Heather. Great idea to can celery. I like your long videos

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

FitAnge S Love you, Mama! :D

[@jenniferasbury7564]

Canning celery is an awesome idea! It is a new one for me. Thank you so much for sharing your celery canning routine. I continue to pray for you and your family. God bless you all!

[@maryannbergeron9531]

I just found you and I love your babbling, helps me to know exactly what to do. ❤️❤️❤️ You are definitely my teacher now.

[@lyndiaroot333]

LOL! I loved listening to this...it reminded me of me! When I'm canning I put my laptop on the counter and pull up yours, Lindas or Noreens videos and just listen to y'all. It's like you're keeping me company. Keep doing what you do! The haters can just move along...... ;-)

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

hahahaha i love you sister-friend!!!!

[@kathleenzimmerman8227]

Yep!!! I do the same thing... and feel the same way. :-D

[@myrany8407]

It is actually power outages that is driving me to learn to can. I am in Hurricane country (Louisiana) and after Rita parts of this Parish were out of power for nearly 3 weeks. It was just dumb luck we were in a part of town they got back online in a couple days. Having grown up in Detroit it was an eyeopener for me. Bless you for doing all these videos you are giving me the courage to try.

[@robertacooper3997]

You do you! Your 30 minutes videos are very informative. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@nikkijones9536]

Love your 30 minutes videos. Rather watch you then watch TV!

[@mmmbad]

I really enjoy your 30 minute videos. Please keep doing them! I like watching the various steps to canning. I'm considering giving it a go! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@cinnamongirl622]

I love the long videos...I usually watch with a snack so I don't get hungry lol Your videos are like mini-movies,I enjoy watching the "procedure",I learn something new,and most importantly,you and your family always make us smile. *likes the video* :D

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

cinnamongirl622 hahaha thanks, Sweet Mama! :D

[@BrendaC-cf7td]

I could watch you for hours! Some days . I do Lol. Hugs

[@lisamichelle1612]

I love your "long winded" videos... keep them up. So much more like listening to a friend vs being taught.

[@Bullybugger]

Love it. I have baby carrots and celery in pressure canner now! Great job! Thank you!

[@bethpalmer2720]

I love your videos, it's like I'm there for a visit.

[@gippywhite]

I know I’m just learning this stuff, but. I’ve come across several places that say it’s ok to reuse your lids. The Amish do all of the time. They just simmer them with I believe baking soda to “fluff up” the rubber on the rings. As long as the rubber is not broken, cracked, worn down, or have little holes, then you could be good to go. Many of the people I’ve seen use the lids like 3-4 times and then reuse them again on vacuum sealed dry jars. Just a thought. Save some money and some storage space. And whichever kind of video you prefer doing is fine by me. I’ll take what I can get! Much love!!! 💙💙💙

[@kimdudds]

Love your longer videos. I'm learning so much. I also love listening to you. Xxx

[@ammiedoering4205]

Oh my, long time ago 😘. I just watched your newer video on celery. Love to you and yours.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

thanks Ammie!!!!

[@thegreymarchhair564]

Hey Heather... I love your longer 30 minute + videos, I turn you on and listen to what you have to share while I am busy doing my housework, or whatever craft or whatnot I am doing...I love it, because as you said ( you are my company)...Kenny works from 3:30 pm until 5:00 am...So I spend most of my time alone, and I love your company, you make me smile. Thank you for sharing bits and pieces of your life with me. Blessed Be and Smooches...

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

+The Grey March Hair awwwww this made my night. THANK YOU! And tell Mr. Kenny I said HI! I used to work the 4pm-1:30am shift and it was ROUGH! he is a hero!

[@june201955]

The length of your video's are fine! But all that I usually need is watching about 2 minutes of them before I start getting hungry. Haha!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

hahahaha! xoxox

[@greenmouseguard]

I love your long video’s Heather I feel we all are friends I spend so much time with you You keep me company Teach me Alot And I enjoy your conversation If people want it shorter Let them fast forward God bless you sweetheart Linda from Ct 💋❤️🙏🙏🙏

[@lynnette3020]

love your videos , so helpful for a newbie canning

[@kimbelcher5685]

I just love chatting with you. I am so glad you did this video I have been wanting to can celery. Can't wait for your other teaching videos. Love to you and yours. :)

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

thanks, Kim!!!! :D xoxox

[@indianamena3432]

I love your 30 minutes videos. I've learned so much from them. Thank you for taking your time to teach us how to can.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

awww thanks Mama!!!!

[@PeenkCupkake]

I love your canning videos so much that I started watching your canning playlist in order. this camera is amazing compared to the other. I subbed and saving most of your recipes in my own playlist for reference. thank you for sharing with us. ♥

[@marisolplatt3347]

Love this celery canning. Didn't think it would turn so nice. Keep up the Chatty way you do is all great! Thanks !

[@Cordelia0704p]

Exactly what I needed to see thank you Heather :)

[@diannecans9622]

You crack me up! I just started canning last year also (self-taught, like you) and it's so fun to see someone get as excited as I do after a successful canning project. Been catching up on your videos as you go through this journey. It's great to see little Mason grow up through them. What a sweetie! He'll be a good big brother. Would love to see what you think of the canned celery once you open it to use. Been considering it since I saw Bev's video but have only dehydrated so far. Would also love to see some ideas of how you use your home-canned stuff in your recipes. That's one area I still struggle with - along with trying to figure out how to store everything I've canned and dehydrated!!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

you know, i think i am going to make my chicken pot pie filling..... using ALL home canned foods. the chicken i canned, the celery, carrots, green beans and potatoes! i will make a video opening up each jar and showing you how it looks, and show how i make a home cooked meal using only my own canned ingredients! :D

[@kathleenzimmerman8227]

SEEEEEE?!? What an EXCELLENT IDEA when the A/C is on, and you don't want to thermal shock your jars!!! I never would have thought of that!!! :-D

[@armidaperez5360]

Love informative videos and your s are refreshing!!! You've got a sparkling personality and it's refreshing.

[@wonderbubbles4092]

I really enjoy the longer videos. Not only do you "chatter" in an interesting manner, you tend to include obscure bits of information. Your videos are more in depth on the science behind modern home canning. I learned from my grandmothers, and they weren't very scientific. Exelent cooks, lots of practical experience and they didn't take chances on health, but not scientists.

[@crazyldy002]

You were saying about we are your company and I had to laugh, I have a sign hung in my kitchen that says, Of course, I talk to myself sometimes I need expert advice LOL Have a great day :-)

[@marvelenelavigne7427]

I use the scraps for stock. I will be canning celery next week. I have canned celery last year and it was delicious

[@Sharone123]

Appreciate your videos! You're a joy to watch!

[@lanaebarb5280]

I love your canning videos! I am also home alone everyday, and it is nice to hear a human voice. I have never canned cekery, but I think I will after watching your video. I don't mind your "blabber" at all. You make perfect sense! I am happy for you on your coming baby! Congratulations!

[@lumbali]

Don't change a thing girl! Keep doing your videos for as long as you need to. I enjoy every minute of your videos and I look forward to watching them everytime you post them. It is time however, for you to stop referring to yourself as a newbie. You're a pro now, even if it's the first time you make something. I learn from you, so you're the teacher and I'm the student. Love the belly too. Missed seeing Mason in this video ... he's so incredibly cute.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

lumbali hahaha I will stop thinking of myself as a newbie. My husband laughs and looks at all my canned foods and says, you can more than any noob I have ever seen! He thinks I have moved past that stage as well. LOL I really appreciate you saying that to me.

[@sherwilliams7047]

I Love your longer videos as you make us feel so welcome & part of the family Thank you keep up the good work

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

Welcome to the fam!!

[@thethegreenmachine]

There was a big storm where I used to live that knocked out all the power in the area and all roads leading in (not the whole state, but a big chunk of it). They had to fix the roads before they could come in and fix the power lines. It was at least a day. I don't remember losing any food, so it probably wasn't more than that for me, but I know some areas had no power for a few days. Yup kinda eery, kinda cool, mostly boring. Not much open. The bars had candles going. Keep on blabbin :)

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

:D

[@TxgrlnGa]

Lol blab away! 🤗❤️ I’m home alone & if someone comes here, they’re all mine! 🤣🤣

[@viclyncrafts]

Heather I really enjoy videos no matter how long they are. I take my laptop to the kitchen turn it on and you're right it's like you're with me love it! lol my sister lives in California and we go shopping all the time by way of the phone. Thanks for all the hard work sorry u have to put the baby down to do it ;)

[@BluheartedGal01]

I love your videos. Thank you for sharing your canning experience. I didn’t know it was possible to can celery.

[@janpresley3804]

Rewatching all videos hoping this helps. Many healing prayers for you and your family 🙏🙏🌻🌻❤️❤️

[@kristihoward7016]

Babble on girl!!!! Roll with it:) I get so inspired watching your videos:)

[@kendrasmith6637]

Love watching your videos. I am learning. 😊

[@kathrynivelasquez2480]

keep on keeping on..you're great hon.

[@zxsma]

Love the idea of canning celery. So many times I need a little for one dish or another. Just dehydrated a couple of bunches last week. But canning it up will definitely be a plus in my pantry. Thanks for the video. I have a old mirro that works wonderfully, the dream is a all American lol.

[@l9878]

Nice video. I never thought of canning celery but makes so much sense. I live in a fairly remote area and I can't think of how many times I wanted to make a soup or stock and realizing I had no celery. This will make it so easy and I will always have some on the shelf. Thanks!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

tou are so welcome, Kay! I use canned celery more often than I even thought I would!

[@jlhh767]

Love your video. Trying to get back to my canning. Thanks

[@shawhit3462]

You did a fine job canning the video. Isn't Bev great? Love your videos, keep them coming. Give Mason a hug for me and of course the baby!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

haha will do!!!! and YES, I have learned so much from her!

[@cricket516]

I love your videos, length and all. Canning and food storage is all new to me, so I love detailed videos. I do, "quick canning" that you make a brine and pop in the fridge and eat within a month. But I would love to learn, long term canning. Question, why do you take the lids off and wash in soapy water afterwards?

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

you would LOVE it! I take the rings off my jars, the bands..... it helps to wash under those rings, where food can leech out during processing, and keeping them off when you store your jars prevents any rust from forming under there. :D www.simplycanning.com/canning-lids-andor-rings-does-it-matter.html

[@myrarichins5618]

OK GIRL... HERE ITI S,,, I FOR ONE LOVE YOUR LONG WiNDED, (SO YOU CALL THEM).... LOL.... VIDEOS... YOU Are A HOOT TO WATCH, A LOT OF FUN , TOO FUNNY, i LEARN SO VERY MUCH, AND YOU AND Matt crack me up... you say we keep you company, the same goes back at cha hun.... keep those vlogs a coming... the more, the longer the better... you keep me conpany as I can and bake along with you... so.... there !!!!... lov ya girl...

[@marvelenelavigne7427]

Thank you , I appreciate you teaching me how to can celery

[@pgtrish]

When people don't want to watch it all they can just fast forward, you just keep doing you! 🥰

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

you are so sweet 🥰

[@jackie1710g]

I love your videos so don't change a thing. I am Learning a lot.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

+Jackie Stiver thank you so much Jackie!!!!!

[@epayne]

I got my canning kit today! The one with the jar lifter, funnel, and debubbler! I'm so excited Haha

[@BJ7481]

I love your videos length and all. One thing to remember, there is unfortunately going to be those group of people that will complain no matter what you do. So trying to please them will never happen. Besides these are "How To" Videos, you can't rush things like that if you're going to completely inform your subbies that really care about what you're trying to show us. These group of people are probably the same ones I see on other vids complaining about vids being too short. KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDEOS!!!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

HAHAHA you are so right!!!!! and thank you so much! :D

[@ndproducelady]

I used tattler's when I canned my peaches in a lite, lite syrup, but some of the jars were sticky. I had to run them under hot water in order to open. I haven't tried them in a pressure canner because you're not supposed to tightened them all the way down and I'm worried about the mess they might make.

[@helenheyes4281]

Hi Heather, I know Bev has a couple of videos on how to use tattler lids and I think Bexar Prepper does as well

[@kathleenzimmerman8227]

please Please PLEASE..... Just. Be. YOU. !!! Keep on *blabbering*, (as you call it) because you include IMPORTANT DETAILS that we ALL NEED to KNOW!!! I just found you a short while ago (when I commented on the *sad bread* LOL). I am trying to catch up on YEARS of your videos. details, Details, DETAILS. They are IMPORTANT!!! btw.... STILL WAITING for that *Happy Bread*. ROFL!!! GITBIZY!!! LOVE

[@melindabanning4497]

I am watching this today 11/2020 thinking that you have been preparing for this year. You have also learned to use Tattler Lids with ease. You have given me hope for me using Tattlers too.

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

you will love them!

[@anthroariel]

Wow! And just a few years later we learned how to live in quarantine!!!

[@janpresley3804]

Would love to celery, just need to get brave in using a pressure canner. Love love your long videos, very educational. Prayers to you and your family 🙏🙏🌻🌻❤️

[@peggysueaustinmcdaniel2590]

Heather don't change keep talking to us. love ya girl

[@sharonarrendale2724]

Could you use canning crisp like pickles to keep your celery crisp?

[@debora3377]

I love celery, I did not know that you could can it. Great job,TFS. Love your video's

[@aandistudiophotographyvide2986]

You are so pleasant to listen to . With cuteness and clear voice you deliver interesting info. Thanks for sharing. Your bebeling is beneficial. So really I guess it’s not babeling lol

[@frankie2237]

Your long video's are the best!

[@theknittedlamb7387]

Woohoo I did it. I canned 12 jars of celery thanks to you two lovely ladies!! First time I used my pressure canner too...so 2 new adventures in canning accomplished. On to canning carrots next...need to get more jars :0)

[@joycewitherspoon671]

Have you tried using pickle fresh in this? I would think that would keep it a bit crispier like you do the bell pepper and onions. Just a thought

[@marnistanton4095]

I canned celery for the first time...thank you for your inspiration!!!!

[@nicoleshupe2313]

Can I ask why you put salt in the celery? I only ask because I didn’t think you usually use salt. I love celery and having a hard time finding it at our cosco. Canning it would be awesome.
