Joe must keep that fishing knife strapped to his belt...used only for cutting onions and potatoes and only to be used by Joe! Seeing those blue enamel pots reminded me of my childhood!
“After you’ve made a mess getting sugar all over the kitchen” 🤣🤣 You crack me up Melissa! You must have been looking at me cooking in my kitchen when you said that!
I just adore Rhubarb!:) They've had on going problems at Trinka Davis Veteran's Village, in Carrollton, GA. with the Wi Fi, and it's still a major problem:( I finally got Wi Fi at 1245 in the morning, 9/26/2020. We are still on lock down. You guys are my lifeline for all things 'Minnesota' that I love and cherish! I was born in 1965, at North Memorial Medical Center, in Minneapolis. I left to join the USMC in 1987. Semper Fidelis

Load those shelves up for winter !! May must have thought that you were cooking for her ! I think Chunky is a happy boy ALL of the time he is with you lol ! You guys Stay Safe !!
Love watching and learning. My grandma use to make Rubarb Pie. Oops spelling sorry. I need to try this can't wait. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Love to cook and feed people and make them happy. Thank you again for your time. Sincerely, Michelle Pup Harley and Kitty Liam from Arlington, Massachusetts.
I've made and canned Concord Grape Jam, apricot jam, plum jam and habanero red pepper jelly. I give you credit, Melissa for the effort involved! A labor of love...or not wanting to waste. Either way, a lost art of which I am trying to learn and appreciate!
Hi Melissa,I love to watch your canning skills!I have never had rhubarb jam but know I would love it!I am sure the cinnamon will add great flavor.Take care Melissa 😋
Thanks Melissa, I sure wish I was back home so that l could go crazy canning again. All the extra space that I have here is filled lol! Great video! 👍👍👍💯💯💯
Ann from Alabama here! That looks good! I've never had rhubarb. I definitely want to try this! Also, if you would let us know if Joe likes it with the cinnamon! LOL! Y'all have really been harvesting the fruits of your labor! LOL! The beans you put up looked so pretty. I used to can every summer. There's nothing any prettier than canned goods on a shelf! We would listen for them to make the popping sound! Thank you Melissa, for sharing! 😁
My Mom baked a Rhubarb and strawberry pie and it was delish. If you don’t like Rhubarb you would never know there was any in the pie. Melissa you have become an expert at canning. What’s next. ?
I don't like Rhubarb but I love jam and I bet the jam will be delicious because it is being fixed by wonderful hands. Do you ever make sassafras tea in the winter time. ? I love that tea . I've heard the sassafras thins your blood. It's an old wives tale. Your going to be all set for winter what with all your canning your doing. Nice to have a big garden. My yard is just to hilly for a good garden. The jam looks delicious. Stay safe.
apple and rhubarb seem to go together well. Apple skin is a source of natural pectin also. I call it spring tonic because if you eat a bunch of it you tend to be more regular. good on ice cream
This looks DELICIOUS--can't wait to try the recipe! Have you ever considered putting a sound bite of a rooster crowing when your web page opens? I think that would be so cool!
Hey Melissa, I caught the “doohickey !” Thanks for doing rhubarb jam, it looks so 😋 yummy. My grandma would make all kinds of foods with it. Her and I both love rhubarb. The price of it in the middle of winter is just ridiculous. I hope you found some to freeze with some strawberries. You mentioned vinegar in the pot, how much do you normally put in? I could hear Chunkie tearing up the house in the background. I am so glad that he has overcome his tendency to eat cats. Lol He found a nice home with people who love him. Have a wonderful weekend with lots of doohickey’s to make your work easier and more fun! Thanks for the recipe! TC. Vicki from Iowa 🦋
@@astheroostercrows6435 I don't have hard water so I don't get that white film but I've heard others say they after the jars have set 24 hours, remove the rings and wash the jars in warm soapy dishwater that has a splash of vinegar. They say it takes that film right off. Rhubarb with cinnamon sounds divine. Thanks for sharing! Yum.
Wow! Melissa that is a lot of cutting. Your doing a lot of Autumn processing from your harvest. Being diabetic those cups of sugar scare me. I bet the farm house smells yummy?
I almost did some with alternative sugar but didn't have enough rhubarb to do both, I decided I will do the sugar alternative (sugar free) jam next year
What’s your take on time of year for cutting Rhubarb? Here in Mn/WI I was always taught never cut it after the 4th of July, gives it time to replenish the root ball.
@Yaya 38103 did you hear the story of girl making something & she said that's way her mother always did it & her mother's mother before her. So someone asked why her mother did it so she asked. Her mother asked her mother(grandma)so grandma said i don't know why anyone else did it that way but my pan was too small!!
I love strawberry-rhubarb jam, but have never tasted just rhubarb jam. My mom always gives me rhubarb and I never know what to do with it. My attempts at baking pies have been disasters. I can make a tasty rhubarb dump cake using cooked rhubarb and canned pineapple (in juice). I use either strawberry or cherry chip cake mix.
How can anyone not like cinnamon? I start the day with cinnamon in coffee and drink iced cinnamon & ginger tea all day long (even during the winter). Will sometimes end the day with a shot of Fireball.
Yes I hope she uses them so I can learn out to use my attachments as well! I think she probably has a lot more attachments than I do for my kitchen aid. Maybe if she had them out and visible she would use them more. My kitchen aid is on my counter so it’s right where I use it but the attachments are put away until I need them.
It tastes sour but when it’s cooked it’s a yummy treat! As kids we would get a little bowl of sugar with a washed stalk and dip it in the sugar to eat. Too sour without the sugar! You can make cakes, pies, wine, breads, jellies, muffins, almost anything that a fruit would be used in. It’s easy to find and ask neighbors for as well, to plant in your own yard. It usually requires 1 pie in return for some plants!
Hey girl, what’s happening up at the farm? Is there anything new going on there? This is Monday here and it looks like the rain is trying to move in some but the sun is stronger than the rain, and it keeps pushing the rain away. The leaves continue to change. I just love fall. I have heard through the grapevine that canned pumpkin is going to run short this year. I guess some folks are cooking the small pumpkin’s from the store and freezing the meat now. You didn’t plant pumpkin did you? We seem to have some canned at our grocery store though. Well, give me a shout, kinda bored here. TC. Vicki from Iowa 🦋
Hi Vicki, it's been pretty ugly here for about a week. Sunday was really the only nice day in over a week, cloudy and chilly and the leaves are falling fast. I did see that 2 years ago up here it was already snowing so at least it's not doing that yet. Where I'm from we never did much with pumpkin, we had so many fruits that we made pies with. I've been wanting to make a pumpkin pie to try my hand at it though. I did read though that the pumpkin you buy in the store is not actually pumpkin but squash as pumpkin is too stringy.
As The Rooster Crows I love pumpkin bread and pumpkin cookies as well. I’m really use to pumpkin pie and bread at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Yes, no snow here as well, that’s good. It’s starting to get into the 40-50’s at nighttime though. This is my favorite weather. I see that Joe put on an update video so I will check that out! TC Vicki from Iowa 🦋
As The Rooster Crows ohhhhhhhh!!! Yes! That helps? Ok ! Good to know. I use purified water and only will do a couple of batches to avoid it. But that’s very helpful to know ! Thank u 🥰
Is it possible if I shorten the recipe, put in regular glass jars and keep in frig? I don't water bath food or can food. Just wondered if I could do jelly like that for short term use. Thank you Melissa.
@@astheroostercrows6435 thank you. Does it have a strawberry taste? I can't eat anything with seeds and heard rhubarb has a similar flavor. Sorry all the questions.
