End of the holiday season sales can save you SO MUCH money. Sarah bought every bag of frozen fresh cranberries to make homemade cranberry juice concentrate. It will be shelf-stable for 18 months after she preserves the juice through canning.

This was the first video I've watched here and what a joy. We are actually cranberry farmers and I can honestly say I've never heard anyone who's not a cranberry farmer talk about cranberries as thoroughly and with as much love as you did here. I make my own juice, too and you're right the color and flavor is phenomenal. Thank you so much for supporting the cranberry industry.

@pennynewell3459 3 года назад

Our favorite homemade juice is cranberry. I always buy all I can after the holidays. I also mix them with blackberries and make jam.

Sarah, I appreciate you and Kevin and the girls more than words can say, but I wanted to try and say how in just a few ways. I grew up on a homestead for a few years and my mother and grandmother both grew up their whole lives on homesteads, so they taught me a lot. Both of them have passed, but you have, unknowingly, picked up the mantel. I am physically disabled, so haven't been doing a lot of the things I used to, but you have inspired me to do some things and to start a small garden again. You've made a difference in my life and I thank you

Sarah, I saw someone use a wooden TV tray, they turned it upside down and used hair ties to hold the four corners to the legs, set a large pot under the cloth and pour in the stuff to drain. I have been using this method since then and I set it on my table and let it drain all night. Works like a charm, I use it for jelly or grape juice.

@cathyvincent3510 5 лет назад

Another thing to use for UTI or getting sick in general is eating fermented foods such as homemade sauerkraut (fresh not canned). The probiotics in them naturally boost your immune system and within minutes I can feel a difference. If you take a couple of spoonfuls every hour or every few hours you will notice a big difference. If you only have pickle juice you can do the same with that and it also works well. Hopefully this gives you another possibility to help you feel better.

We always buy several bags and turn them into sauce. We chop them up, add cinnamon, cloves, anise, black pepper, and sugar. We then let it simmer in the slow cooker several hours and then water bath can it. Sooo much better than textureless tin can cranberry sludge from store.

@Greens5511 5 лет назад

Now I loved this video and idea! Super great idea and HUGE money savings!!! One thing I do to save even more money and time in instaces like this when taking things from the freezer to either cook for a meal or can like this is I take them out of the freezer usually the night before so they have time to naturally get to room temperature then start the cooking process. Doing that saves me time cooking them on the stove and money spent on gas. Also another way to easier ladle things into my jars I use a glass measuring cup with a handle so in one motion I can see that I have enough amount in the measuring cup and there is a pour spout on the cup. Well Sara I am going to make sure I check out the freezer section of the grocery store this weekend to do this! Such a great idea that I have never thought of nor did I even know how to do! Thanks!!!

I do a similar process, not to make juice for drinking but for the first step for making cranberry and port jelly ( in England we use it for an accompaniment to roast poultry eg, chicken, turkey, duck even roast pork) The pulp that’s left is then made into Christmas chutney which is fantastic with cheese or gammon ham (cold cut)

How do you make the cranberry sauce with the chunks in it. I didn't think I'd like it till I tried it and I liked it. Chutney sounds great too.

@elizabethprior4968 5 лет назад

Cherrie Mckinstry No the jelly is a clear deep purple set jelly. I include some freshly pulped and juiced Bramley Apple juice with the sugar in the final jelly process so there’s a lot of pectin - no gelatine is used and there’s a good set. The port is added near the end before putting it in the jars. Unlike the USA, the British jam making process does not include a bottling water bath in the process for jam or jelly making. The chutney recipe I use is one from Mary Berry the British cooking doyenne.

I bought 20 bags when they went on sale for .99 ..that was a good deal here.

@annwithaplan9766 5 лет назад

@Lucille Carpenter - I replied to someone else the other night, saying that all the other stores in the area were out except the local Ingles ($1.49 bag) and I was going to go in the morning. Well, I got there and found 16 bags and they had marked them down to 99c each too! I bought all of them. So now I have about 46 bags in the freezer. I use them in my juicing, so if I use half a bag per week, they'll last me the entire year. : )

You could put waxed paper behind the towel to protect the cupboard, if needed.

Fantastic!!! I have a bag of cranberries and I want to make a small batch for this week. But you’re inspired me to want to go out and find some cranberry deals and can!!

@patsygravitt2031 5 лет назад

I love cranberries and like you I grab every bag I can get my hands on. I use them in my baking, making cranberry sauce, and mixing with other fruit to make juice. Love your old fashioned ways of doing things took me back to my mama's.

@enyeterlin9466 5 лет назад

I'd add a length of wax paper between the cupboards and the tea towel. But extremely interesting. I've only made the cranberry sauce with sugar.

Good idea

@lynnmasoner7627 5 лет назад

You should try adding a cinnamon stick and orange peel. During cooking then remove before continuing. The added flavor is fabulous.

@enyeterlin9466 5 лет назад

I do add grated orange peel and the orange juice, plus cinnamon stick and nutmeg. I just kept my comment short. It is fabulous. I need to go look for cranberries today.

@lynnmasoner7627 5 лет назад

Never thought to add orange juice to it I will have to try that but I don’t grate my peel I just add it whole and remove when done cooking .

@enyeterlin9466 5 лет назад

@@lynnmasoner7627 yeah why waste the orange. I might eat a few sections but the majority gets squeezed in the sauce while preparing.

My mom puts a broom top of 2 chairs (backside facing the other backside and the broom is on top) and she hangs the towel with the pulp on it, the pot is between the two chairs on the floor.

@J3rs3yM1k3 5 лет назад

I was going to comment that this is how we used to strain elderberries. I guess a lot of moms have two chairs and a broom. ;)

Now that I'm healthy again, I just might try this! I've never EVER canned anything before but this seems not too difficult :) Finally, after everything I've learned on this channel, I've found something I think I can manage lol! Thanks, Sarah!

that would be really good with a mixture of apple juice....I love cranapple juice!!!!!! I enjoy all your videos!!!

@pamelaleitman9200 5 лет назад

Clarence Clark what kind of apple juice do you use? Do you make your own?

@heavenscenthomestead4242 5 лет назад

Great find! Believe it or not, but I found that one of the best strainers is a 2 part honey strainer. The bottom strainer is really fine. Makes the first strain go much faster. Then you can strain through cloth if you want it clearer. I use it for broth too. I may have to get another one for my honey. LOL

@pamelaleitman9200 5 лет назад

HeavenScent Homestead not sure what do you mean the “makes the first strain go much safer?”

@heavenscenthomestead4242 5 лет назад

oops...meant faster. Darn spell check. Thanks for pointing it out.

This is so clever! We squeeze and freeze lemon juice from our tree to make homemade lemonade concentrate. Never thought to do cranberry! Thank you!

@mamabear1260 Год назад

Thank you for sharing I just saw a deal at Walmart and remembered your video. Going to try it this weekend.

@YolklahomaRocks 5 лет назад

So YOU bought them all LOL! We looked for cranberries for a relish recipe at Christmas time. Every store in 4 areas had NONE! Thanks for this video. We will be on alert next year for clearance. We love cranberry juice so we will make some concentrate. We like it mixed with other fruit juice as well.

@penelopepenobscot4475 5 лет назад

One of my favorite jellies for gifting is jalapeño cranberry. Everyone thinks I am gourmet, but I'm really just frugal. Just follow your favorite cranberry jelly recipe measurements, first having simmered 10 jalapeños in the cranberry juice. Most recipes suggest removing seeds and inner membranes, but not enough heat for us that way so I remove stems and just slice in half lengthwise. Of course you strain before canning. Makes a lovely, deceptive pink jelly that packs a punch!

I love making cranberry juice. We get cases of cranberries for under $10 Canadian here ... at discount produce stores. I found if you did a first wire mesh strain... then ran the batch through a cloth it sped up the process. That pulp leftover I used with some sugar and made fruit roll ups. I can't wait to see what you did with your pulp.
