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

[@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.

[@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!!

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@UghUgh1234]

Put a splash of vinegar in the canner with the water to prevent the jars from getting discolored

[@ginnylong5326]

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

[@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

[@sandraburke1258]

My mother used a bit of BAKING SODA to her Beans to reduce the gases.

[@vlunceford]

Well, I’m a day late for the canner giveaway but I have 2 AA canners already. I have been canning for quite some time My thinking was that if I won, I would be able to gift it to someone else who really needs it. But that’s okay. I signed up for the newsletter and the PDF. I just found this channel and this is the first video I have watched on it. Absolutely wonderful! No nonsense, excellent presentation, precise instruction! Thank you!

[@ingeranneamundsen7722]

You are a great teacher! Thank You!

[@crookedstrings3009]

Dear Chelsea, thank you very much for your smooth canning day pdf !! I will apply this to my canning and food prep. Best regards from Franc, C

[@donscott6431]

One “glug” is about three “scooches”😊

[@deborahstewart2322]

I would rather can in winter makes the house warm .

[@sherrymahsburn4317]

Hey Chelsea I hope you and your family are well

[@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. ❤

[@janamerican]

Almost a jar of beans per week!

[@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! ❤️❤️❤️

[@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! 😊

[@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!

[@reginathompson9350]

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

[@bethalmond5184]

Worcestershire sauce = wuss-ter sauce 😊 wish canning was more accessible here in the UK

[@Bennettfarm]

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

[@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.

[@sueholte451]

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

[@patriciakoester1580]

Outstanding video thank you Chelsea Patricia (Daniel)

[@karawonder4492]

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

[@anounimouse]

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

[@LynLvs2Laugh]

Excluding baked beans, green beans, & chicken tortilla soup we are a bean free household 😂😂

[@laurabox7919]

I always love your videos! Thank you for your time!! I wish i had your energy!! I love canning and dehydrating, but it is only me, so I work with much smaller batches.

[@PatriciaDILLON-o8x]

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

[@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!!

[@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 😊

[@jonathanstarn3728]

Thank you for the video! I have just recently started to add the canned beans into the pantry, so it is very helpful to hear and see how easy it really can be. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@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!

[@geriegert1558]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I really enjoy your videos.

[@deannemory1568]

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

[@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.❤

[@DianneNash-nh5vu]

Thanks Chelsea!😘

[@ronniebrace2917]

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

[@beverlywalling1417]

Read up on flat sour if you leave jars in hot canner too long…really enjoy your show…❤

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Yes, they need to be taken out fairly quickly after the pressure comes all the way down.

[@OurIntrovertedHomestead]

I'm totally excited about your giveaway, as I'm trying to learn as much as I can about canning, and I'm unable to afford a canner... we'll see what happens!💙💚

[@karentuthill8308]

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

[@jackiegagne2625]

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

[@TrishaS2930]

Noticed that as you are removing your jars from the canner that you will tilt them at times to remove the water from the top, it is recommended that this practice is avoided as it could result in preventing a seal if any particles from inside seep under the lid. On another note, you are not pronouncing "pasta" wrong, as you said, you live in Canada and that is how it is said. We all have accents, regardless of where we live. When I went off to college, I was told I had an accent because of how I pronounced the word "car". My home town was only 125 miles north of the college!!!😅

[@melaniemorris7757]

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

[@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

[@jaimerein7959]

What an awesome giveaway!!!

[@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.

[@lassie7777]

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

[@louisechilds5444]

I would love to be on your email newsletter. Thank you

[@evaarnim]

I've always wanted an all American canner.

[@lazettaoneill9258]

I would love to have your cookbook. I am already signed up for the newsletter.

[@LisaTurek-px9jc]

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

[@Heartbeetnutritionist]

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

[@pattynelson305]

I already have your cookbook and have been enjoying it!

[@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.

[@teresareade8221]

I always enjoy all your videos 🥰

[@sheilamalone227]

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

[@sharorganic5841]

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

[@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.

[@jeanettewaverly2590]

After a lifetime of friendships in the Latino community, including 29 years in New Mexico, I’m pretty knowledgeable about cooking with beans, lol.

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

[@lindaweber3083]

Always love your videos

[@selfsufficientliving]

What an awesome giveaway!

[@kirstenstoremski3874]

I literally started canning so that I would stop forgetting to soak beans lol.

[@jolynnpuente347]

Great videos! I’ve learned a lot from 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.

[@melaniecampbell5584]

Yay!! I’m so excited ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@elizaC3024]

I love canning beans, it gives me fast food meals. 😅😅 I soak mine, then I cook them for 30 minutes with 2 teaspoons of baking soda to help them be more digestible.

[@sarad2083]

Wow! I really need to can some beans as well 😅

[@donna5754]

Great video as always .

[@mayramartinez7532]

Thank you so much for this video on canning beans, I’ve been so intimidated on doing it and you’ve illustrated so well that I’m now thinking of buying an all American canner so I can finally can my own beans. Thank you so much.

[@georgebanks8804]

I Learn A lot From You & Dan. And Your Channel (people comments) 🤙🤙🤙

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I have such a wonderful comment section. You are all awesome and so kind!

[@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.

[@marthamacaulay5656]

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

[@naomihartman6623]

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

[@jeremyjonesone]

You should build a class and let people buy it. Full range of canning options. Would be amazing and make passive income.

[@cherylrowland5470]

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

[@arkansashomestead2926]

I made your beef stew and it was delicious! Thank you

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! 😊

[@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!
