[@stevehucks660]

We noticed on your page that the winter giveaway was open until Feb. 8. But this is Feb 11 when you announced??

[@nancyowen6936]

I always open both ends of my paste can! No waste!

[@jolinbarilla2229]

Thank you.

[@myrageary4920]

Thank you!

[@debbiecrouch709]

You have such great videos so informative. Stay warm!

[@sistermaryam8204]

Chelsey, next time you use a can of tomato paste, try opening the can on both ends and then push the final lid through. No waste off your tomato paste or scraping.

[@michellehommes9773]

That is a brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing it.

[@lenorabrown7797]

That's the way I did it as well. Now I buy either the tube or the jar.

[@christym6128]

Genius! Thanks.

[@northernkarma9296]

Clever!!!!!

[@suemcknight9051]

@sistermaryam8204. Glad you wrote that out…I was thinking it while watching Chelsea scooping & scraping. My mom is who taught me to do that (& I’m 80, so that was a long time ago!😉). I’ve done that my entire life & got upset when some of the canning companies started making the bottoms of some cans differently- - preventing that nifty trick from being possible 😠. It is such a wonderful way to clean out a can …use it mostly for tomato paste & cranberry sauce!

[@JW-es5un]

Chelsey, I myself have been a Canner for over 45 years. Now we used to eat Pinto soup beans & cornbread once a week. You are correct when thinking by salting the beans when you can them keeps them from getting mushy in the process of canning. It does harden the outer shell of any beans. Even when cooking dry beans by adding salt when you start cooking keeps the beans from breaking down. Also I too soak & drain my beans & cook for 30 minutes. This removes some of that gas. I still cook for a family of 4 adults &one teenager . We are 3 generations in one farmhouse. HAPPY CANNING!!!GOD BLESS from West Central Indiana USA Farmland

[@mimiholland3929]

I just bought 50 lbs of beans and was feeling a little overwhelmed by the giant bags sitting in my kitchen. This video was exactly the motivation I needed to get started! Your enthusiasm is contagious! Thanks!!

[@kimdowning8736]

Hi Chelsea, I love your videos. Wanted to tell you and your viewers about another Canadian You Tuber, Glen and Friends, he does a cooking show and makes a lot of videos from old cook books, like you do. He also has another channel about airplanes...where he raised money to donate to Hope Air. These pilots fly people from remote areas of Canada to get medical attention when needed. I thought that was very interesting.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

He's awesome! Someone shared him with me awhile ago and he does a great job on his channel.

[@carriecreates1207]

Home canned beans are also good, for people like me, that live on the Gulf Coast and experience hurricanes etc. We are often without power for a week or two. You CAN'T pull out the crock pot to cook beans. You CAN open a home canned jar of beans and cook it over your camp stove. You do a good job with your videos.

[@vickiwood9192]

Interesting video. RE: salting beans...America's Test Kitchen suggest brining beans overnight to help prevent both tough beans and mushy beans. Brining causes changes at the cellular level, which I won't pretend to understand, without causing the beans to taste salty. Per pound of dried beans, add 3 tablespoons of salt to 4 quarts of cold water. Soak overnight and rinse thoroughly before cooking. While cooking, season the beans as you normally would. Thank you for your informative videos.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I need to look into that!

[@kittyrichards9915]

I hope I remember this for future canning. I hate mushy beans, but don't like to go against tested methods.

[@amandar7719]

@@LittleMountainRanch Chelsea, I thought I’d heard somewhere that putting a dash of organic cider vinegar in the soaking brine also helps to breakdown the compounds.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I wonder if this goes for canning them as well?

[@cathysosalla]

I laughed when I saw the parchment paper on the lid. My gallon sized jars are old also, so I put parchment paper on the lid too.

[@Sylvie_M]

I learned a great tip about getting the tomato paste out of the can easily.....cut the lid off both ends, then using the lid at one end, push the whole can full of paste out the other. Works like a charm.

[@ginnylong5326]

I absolutely love watching you can. You explain it so well that even a beginner like me, feels at ease to start canning.

[@cathydavis9259]

I do not know how you get so much done!!! I love your videos, great ideas lessons and examples both long and short term.

[@CountryGal65]

I live in TN in US I love the way you present your shows simple and easy to understand ,thank you for all you do!

[@MelissaStewart-i4e]

Love that you are giving back to the community! The All American would be a great gift

[@GeorgiasGarden]

I love that you said “plan your dinner that canning day” I always do this. I found quickly I was tired and the last thing I wanted was to have to make dinner. ❤

[@plot1895]

A super teaching video. I canned jars for the first time this winter and it’s good to be able to watch you and check what I’m doing.

[@sheilamartin5196]

I am already receiving your newsletter but just wanted to say thank you for offering this giveaway…for those of us who always borrow a canner when it is available, this seems like a huge gift opportunity. So, thank you for providing us a chance to receive a canner as a gift…WOW you all are amazing.

[@TweetyBirdFan2010]

I love having beans on the shelf. I do it as a single ingredient and others seasoned. It just makes life so much easier for any meal.

[@reginathompson9350]

I can year round since we love the convience of just opening a few jars for quick meals while having busy lives.

[@angievictory2332]

49 jars of beans is awesome!! I am so tickled that we have the same bowls that you enjoyed your soup from!! Have a wonderful day!!

[@melaniemorris7757]

I canned 3 different kinds of beans for the first time this year. A qonderful, versatile and flavorful addition to the pantry!

[@anounimouse]

I LOVE it I see that your new bread machine/mixer has found its new Home!!

[@sherrymahsburn4317]

Hey Chelsea I hope you and your family are well

[@DawnPalmer55]

Regarding the flat sour thing, watch Rose Red Homestead. She is extremely knowledgeable about canning. Have dreams of canning for the first time this summer and would love to win an All American canner! Good luck everyone! 😊

[@donscott6431]

One “glug” is about three “scooches”😊

[@STEVENLEWTER]

Pro tip for the tomato paste- open both sides with the can opener and then just push it out!

[@leannekenyoung]

OMG! 😱 Chelsea I would absolutely LOVE to win a canner!!! What an incredible prize!!! Thank you for your generosity! 🥰❤️🙏🏻🍁🇨🇦

[@catracampolieto8989]

I have quite a bit of dry beans. I should can some. The beef stew looked so delicious. How kind and generous to have a give away. Have a great day.❤

[@karentuthill8308]

Chelsea, you are the absolute best!! Thank you for always being so helpful and supportive ❤

[@traceyvaile7625]

I love canning beans too, work now, reap the rewards later. I really should be using my roaster oven more, they're so handy.

[@kariblackwood5811]

Love seeing folks share how food prep was done in the past. Haven’t canned in a few years but definitely will be doing it again soon!

[@CatladyHomestead]

You are a great inspiration to me, love your videos and how you explain so much of what you are doing. Maybe one day you will get to watch me doing the things you do 😊

[@photororo52]

Thank you Chelsea! You constantly amaze me by your energy and enthusiasm! I am relatively new to canning, so I’m going to take ALL tips and begin canning beans for my pantry. Love your videos! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jeanieelmer9853]

I always add ginger to any beans I cook to cut down on the gas.

[@LynLvs2Laugh]

I ❤Beef Stew. It is always so filling and comforting.

[@puremayhelm]

I'm in Manitoba Canada and love watching your videos. We also homestead and love canning dried beans in the winter months when I have more down time.

[@danettecrossley7912]

For those days when I am to busy to cook I have freezer meals casseroles bags of meat marinated to throw on the grill bags of cooked beef, chicken bacon etc I spend a day filling the freezer for when I'm busy, sick,or lazy😂 also make bread dough, biscuits etc freeze

[@sandraburke1258]

****Ladies what you cook in bulk today saves YOUR Energy and YOUR money as your washing dishes once instead of dozens of times while saving Time, Water and Fuels/Electric and your Money (as prices go up) not to mention in a crisis like no power days your food is eat now ready.****It's Friday today have a wonderful week-end

[@barbvandeneykel6547]

I used to be scared of pressure canners until i saw your show. I still don't have one but one day... thank you!

[@jackiegagne2625]

As I can't get beef, I would use pork shoulder in the stew. Yum!

[@XOjmmXO]

I really enjoy watching your big canning days! It is stunning! I struggle doing one canner load a day! It is truly inspiring!

[@Niamh07421]

I have a tip for you- take the lid off one side of the tomato paste- then use a can opener to the other lid- then just push that lid through the can and it all comes out in one shot- learned this from watching my Italian friends mothers making sauce

[@sharorganic5841]

Good winter thing to get out of the way instead of being on the busy summer canning time🥕

[@Bennettfarm]

You are so funny. You’ve been canning an awful lot this winter after saying you would take a break 😂

[@almostantiquemn]

I thoroughly enjoy watching your channel. I'm a Homesteader wanna be Hoping to someday have a small farm. Lord willing. Raising twin 4year old boys at 59 years young.

[@karawonder4492]

I love watching you cook and garden u remind me so much of my late mom thank u for sharing with us ..

[@turaunamims1024]

Thanks for all the great info! It's so nice to have things on the shelf and ready to go! Also, I totally love your sign saying Remember, as far as everyone knows, we are a nice, normal family! Ha ha! That's awesome!

[@sheilamalone227]

I love your videos! They inspire me to do more! Thanks for showing the older recipes.

[@lassie7777]

Those lids on your gallon jars can be sprayed painted your choice of colors that would go with your pantry.

[@Chooch88]

I have used so many of your videos to help me can! Canning is life!!

[@TerriLaBarron]

Those look amazing! I have never been one that liked beans, but I have recently discovered there are a few I really do enjoy! Black beans are one and butter beans are another! Thank you!

[@lynsmith2698]

Great video as usual. I prefer canning beans the same way as you do . That is so nice of you doing an international draw as well. Good lucky everyone 🇨🇦🌷

[@evaarnim]

I've always wanted an all American canner.

[@LisaTurek-px9jc]

Awesome job! One jar broken is totally acceptable and more than often expected.

[@naomihartman6623]

Chelsea u are such a good teacher u should become a home economics teacher I learned a lot from this

[@lindablank]

I just got your cookbook delivered today. I can't wait to try your recipes.

[@marilynnergord7993]

Thank you for showing this. For anyone who has not made home canned beans I will tell you they are so, so,so much better than store canned beans. They are delicious & you will likely find you eat them often. Can beans!,

[@deecooper1567]

Great presentation 👍💖👵🏻❣️

[@SerenityHomestead]

I love having beans on my pantry shelf. Your stew looks delicious!

[@jessicaj1377]

I have dreamed of having an All American canner.

[@sueholte451]

Thank you Chelsea!! I learn so much from you. I have quite a bit of dry beans I'm going yo can!!

[@cindyparker9920]

I have always had the all American canner in my wish list! I have lots of dry beans that I need to get busy and can!

[@MySwellGarden]

Thanks for another great video! What an awesome giveaway. A pressure canner! Woohoo!

[@vanessap1769]

Glad I found your channel. I love watching you and learning some new things along the way.

[@Heartbeetnutritionist]

Thanks for this education on Pressure Canning, it makes me so nervous 😬

[@BevLoveNlife]

Thank you Chelsea, I’m so looking forward to the giveaway ❤️ And thank you for teaching me how to can beans, you are so clear with your instructions! 😊

[@sandralafond3818]

What a wonderful giveaway - either the canner or the book! Love your videos, Chelsea. I learn so much from you ♡

[@marthamacaulay5656]

I have only canned beans from dry, I will try to do it this way next time. Thanks for sharing.

[@kimsampleshall7137]

I love cooking beans, my little tip is cooking them in chicken broth or stock it brings it a notch up and another one is add a whole onion if cooking on the stove, or chunks if canning, so good! Hugs from NW Ga. Love your channel!

[@NancyMancarious]

Ok.. I have to say, I was a big believer for the white colour for the upper cupboards,... But this saje green looks so good. I thought it'd darken the place, but yeah that's not the case.

[@ShansBackyardGarden]

Chelsea what an awesome giveaway!! My husband and I love your channel!!!!

[@valarielorenc5656]

I'm fairly new to your channel and really enjoy your content. Your enthusiasm for home cooking and gardening is inspiring. Thank you.

[@ronniebrace2917]

Great video-thanks! Your stew looked delicious! I add butternut squash or pumpkin to make it more filling. It’s really good.

[@peggyreid8749]

Hello I grew up in Quesnel many years ago. I love watching you every week .

[@Beezign]

I am quite new to pressure canning and have canned both chicken and beef. Love them both as it makes a quick and easy dinner!

[@leahwahl8436]

I love how you cook big! Im just starting on my canning journey and you inspire me. I just signed up for the newsletter and it said the giveaway deadline was the 8th.😮 I hope it was a typo.😊

[@BethMiliken-hz4gn]

So glad to see this video. I just canned 7 pints of pork and beans. I just winged it but now know how to do it right. My dream is to have an All Ammercan pressure canner!

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Just make sure you did it right enough that they have been canned safely or use them up or freeze them right away.

[@PatriciaDILLON-o8x]

Use a pasta pan makes it easier to soak things.Just lift and it's just easier.

[@deannemory1568]

I have been saving beans to can I am excited to try both ways.

[@debdoherty3226]

I will try canning my black beans. Thanks.

[@exploringallgenres]

I love bulk canning days but its certainly a lot of work. I'm intrigued by your roaster tip, about putting water under the insert - my roaster says to not do that.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Yes, I have seen a comment by someone who worked in the factory who said the same thing.

[@rebeccawallace4240]

You have such wonderful, loving video s,you are a work horse girl.

[@blueheronhill]

Here’s a suggestion, when using tomato paste take off both ends of the little jars and you can just push out the paste thru one of the ends and it comes out cleanly.

[@DB-fo4vg]

I have never canned beans before. Thank you for the video showing how you can them.

[@vampirelilly100]

Your videos are always so interesting and knowledgeable. I hope that by watching more of them I get the courage to start canning in the future!

[@grammysue7355]

I’d love a pressure canner so much. I only water bath because they are so expensive for me. Good luck everyone!

[@cherylrowland5470]

Love your videos. There is so much info. I’ve been canning for years. Always something new to learn! So thank you Chelsea 💗.

[@maryh8230]

Love your videos. I learn so much. Black beans, yum!

Thank you Chelsea for the great video on how to can beans. Alberta neighbour here.

[@SJC49]

That beef stew looks amazing! I love making one pot meals - a fair bit of prep but so nice to know dinner is set to go and there will be leftovers as well!😍🇨🇦

[@melaniecampbell5584]

Yay!! I’m so excited ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jonathanstarn3728]
