Thanks! I'm new to the bottled sauce game and you gave an excellent presentation of the process. Lots of good detail and ideas simply presented. And thanks for the links to the products used.
My three favorite foods, my three favorite life saving foods. Medicinal miracles ,medicine is food and food is medicine. Praise Jesus, praise God. Praise the Holy Spirit. Can I get a Hallelujah and amen.🕊️❤️🥰🔥🙌
Just some advice that if you didn't have a disc to put in the bottom of the water bath canner you can also use a towel put it down in there first and then put the jars on top just an idea
Great video! It should be mentioned that fermentation increases the complexity of the flavours in the sauce however if heating for “shelf stability” it will kill healthy part of the fermentation process leaving you with very tasty hot sauce without the health benefit of the fermentation process
@prettyprettycapricorn6431 they went crazy haha. This was a couple years ago and I have since moved to 7 acres. We got about 8-10 pumpkins total, but boy do those vines like to spread out!
RU-vid is not a great source for food preservation recipes. There are plenty of approved pickle recipes online and in published materials. Online just search for what you want to pickle and"extension" and you will find many picking and canning recipes from county extension offices throughout the United States. These recipes have been tested and approved and many times you will find that"grandmas family recipe" was actually an approved recipe. But find them yourself it's good to use tested recipes when preserving food.
@@ericw1641 I would ferment then add some roasted peppers to the mix at time of processing. Roasting could sterilize the peppers and make them take longer to ferment.
Do you work full-time? Is it difficult to manage time between taking care of the house and work as well? Would love to experience some of this type of life, especially since I am in the same area. Keep up the great work!
@Warl0ck96 I do work full time. It can be a handful for sure, but I wouldn't have it any other way. If you are interested, I'm hosting a Poultry Processing Workshop on the farm in Oct. Shoot me an email at virginiagraceliving@gmail.com is you'd like more details!!
I’m about to make these pickles. I have pickling spice. Is that ok to use instead of the fresh stuff? Also, I only have pink Himalayan salt. Is that ok? It doesn’t say it contains iodine. TIA!
Was the Brine hot when you added it to the cukes? thank you for this video. I had to throw out 10 jars of dill pickles, they were mush and tooo salty. Gonna try again with your recipe.
It's gorgeous! I sent the video to my husband and said "this is what we want!". I'm looking forward to more videos, especially excited to see your new additions! God bless!
