I have been using a steam canner for 30 years, and I still love it, not to mention we are in a drought and water usage is a big issue. I also put my jars upside down over the steam holes to sterilize the inside and get them hot prior to putting the contents inside; I do this while I am prepping the contents, so my work flows

@carolclarkson4859 3 года назад

We have a freeze dryer that has been a life saver for this. We took all of the food out of our freezer and put it through our freeze dryer and then onto the shelf. Have freeze dried leftovers this way as well. We love not wasting food.

This was just great. Really informative. And, as a french man, and i am sorry in advanced if i might be shocking some of you, but Melissa, you are just an extremely smart and beautiful woman. Your channel is my main guide to prepare our future family life back to France from China. We will buy a small vineyard and go homesteading...which is really a weird life, yet, in France. Although, homesteading is catching up simply because we are getting poorer and poorer thanks to the European Union and Germany... Thanks again for all this wealth of knowledge you share with us.

Just made blueberry/strawberry jam today using my steam canner. I love using that canner and I always use low sugar pectin with fresh fruit since they are sweet enough.

thank you, finally someone (you) addressed the inside of canner to be 180 degrees. thank you, I made marmalade today. and it turned out great.

I was able to pick up BRAND NEW in the box steam canner at a yard sale for $4!!! I was so excited to say the least. Peach salsa was its first voyage. 🍑

@MidwestGirl 3 года назад

I absolutely LOVE my steam canner - it makes such a huge difference! It doesn't get nearly as hot in the kitchen, it doesn't take nearly as long for it to get ready for your jars, and it's not nearly as heavy. I just got mine last year, but wish I had it much sooner! Oh, how I love to hear those 'pings'!

@tammycraine7493 3 года назад

Do you mean compared to a big pressure canner?

@practicallyheidi8505 2 года назад

@@tammycraine7493 No compared to a water bath canner only.

@practicallyheidi8505 2 года назад

I love that I can easily keep my jars hot upside down the the steam canner. Putting empty jars in a water bath canner to keep hot is a nightmare of floating and having to dump out hot water.

I just bought 2 steam canners and LOVE them!!! So easy to put anything that needs to have skins removed in the canner and steam the skins off. So much faster than boiling. Wish I would have bought them years ago. So much faster and less heat added to the house.

@sherriewise8325 3 года назад

I watched Mary's nest video, to check the set she would put a plate in the freezer and would put a spoonful on it. To check she would draw a line through the middle. If it was jellied it was set. Just another way to do it.

I've never used a steam canner before but it seems like a quicker/easier method of sealing jars vs. water baths. I just harvested a large batch of raspberries to make jam with. Great video!

@practicallyheidi8505 2 года назад

It is amazing. I just bought 2 and I used one for steaming peach skins off and the other kept my jars hot. I even used it the other night to steam my sweet corn for dinner.

Who disliked this video?? Haters gonna hate. Thanks for the video.

@nancyinboise9643 2 года назад

I've been using a steam canner for years to but a different model. I actually think an outside because I have a glass top stove and it keeps the kitchen cooler. I very rarely ever had a seal fail and I've never gotten sick and there are several extension offices around the country that recommend these. They're definitely lighter weight easier to move and mine holds five or six quarts at a time grateful. If it's really hot inside your house you should try canning outside! I use our glass top patio table and Coleman camping cook stove with propane

How so?

@cortneykonopasek2023 Год назад

I found this recipe and wanted to know if it would preserve well for Jam. I wanted to substitute the sugar for honey. What are your thoughts? Mixed Berry Jam 16 cups of berries 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup chia seeds Cook down your berries until soft & then use an immersion blender. I don't like my jam chunky so I blend until I don't see big chunks. Put back on the stove, add your sugar and cook down until it's a tad thicker. Add chia seeds and simmer for another 20 minutes or so. Jar up and can, freeze or eat fresh!

Love this method. To get a bit more cherry-lime flavour could I add lime zest? I have never added zest to jam so not sure how it would impact shelf life.

Yes, you can add a bit more, not a problem

Hi How to make a sourdough bread type texture without the Sourness, as it make my stomach suffer. Please let me know. thanks.

@hekjagothrathsdottir1768 3 года назад

Can you also use freshly pressed juice? In most recipes bottled lemon juice is used. I usually buy fresh organic lemons here in Germany. Thanks 😊

@MelissaKNorris 3 года назад

With tart or pie cherries you can use fresh but not with the sweet cherries because they're not as acidic and require the bottled.

@championhomestead6273 3 года назад

If I only have a water bath canner (sorry for this dumb question because I have never used it) can I do that and keep everything else the same?

@MelissaKNorris 3 года назад

Not a dumb question and answer is yes 😊

@justjoanish 3 года назад

What was that yellow pot and where did you get it? I think you mentioned it was enamel coated cast iron? Could this also be used for baking bread in?

@malzimus 3 года назад

If you search for "cast iron dutch oven" you should get results. There's at least one knowledgeable lady that's done testing on lead and other heavy metal levels in cookware and compared brands (even brand name) so it might be advisable to research that first. Also, yes, there are also videos on RU-vid about baking bread in them. They make great roasts, stews, soups, etc. and are oven safe as well because most are just coated cast iron. All the best!

I saw ball made a low sugar pectin option online? Have you tried?

@ginakendrick2581 2 года назад

Hi I used my news team counter same as years today for the first time making raspberry jam with just two quarts of raspberries and two and half cups of sugar No lemon juice I don't have a recipe my problem was that the information given in the canner does not give any recipes for time So I processed it the jam in the half-point jars the tiny jars like you used I think that's half pint I processed the raspberry jam for 10 minutes I did not know if the steam canner had a different process time than the water bath canner and I cannot find any information or recipes for processing times for raspberry jam and again I did not use lemon juice in my raspberry jam

@OkieVet918 2 года назад

Do you have experience or advice for canning like this but using say Monk Fruit or another non sugar sweetener???

@christineconley7903 Год назад

I'm planning on using allulose and Pamona's pectin. I've heard it's do-able.

@cgc1581 3 года назад

Can I substitute clear jel for the pectin and calcium powder?

@DonnaBorooah 3 года назад

This brand of pectin and calcium powder is very specific and has its own precise instructions. They won’t apply to any other product. Follow the instructions for each product as directed.

@loydeneward6613 3 года назад

I’ve used the liquid and the sure gel pectin. I found that the liquid makes a funny texture ring around the jelly when you open the jelly and put in the fridge. Just my view point. Others might like it.

Please click the recipe link in the video description, it clearly states everything including your processing times for altitude. At 3,500 you add an additional 10 minutes, for 20 minutes total

@TechnologistLive 3 года назад

Can you offer preservation methods that don't require many other inputs like sugar? Drying cherries for instance, but that requires electricity or appropriate weather to dry, and perhaps appliances. Yes the jam is good tasting, but some consider sugar as white poison that happens to taste wonderful (which is how all poisons like that work else no one would ingest the poison, as ant honey tricks the ants to poison themselves.voluntarily and with uncanny speed). Personally I'm ok with salt but reticent to use sugar or honey. Ever ferment cherries? Not like wine, but sort of like cherry pickles? So a sour ferment, but using cherries or fruit of some sort, in order to allow unrefrigerated storage without loss.

@DonnaBorooah 3 года назад

@DebRoo11 3 года назад

I'm so confused about canning 😔 so water bath or steam canning is only for 'acidic' foods? How do you can something like beans? I don't really like foods that are too acidic.

@thebuddinghomemaker 3 года назад

You need a pressure canner to can foods with low acidity.

@xyzsame4081 2 года назад

Or heat them up. Botulism ! The poison of the bacterium is complex, fragile, only develops over time and without (or very little oxygen) and it does not fare well if there is some acidity. - Meat, fish, and sausage were sources of poisoning in the past (quite dangerous) especially if they were not heated. Even short heating up will destroy the poison and it is safe to eat. All other things will be noticed (mould, fouling) - but botulism you cannot see, taste or smell. It is not impossible that fruit or vegetable preserves would allow it to develop (although the main problems were with meat and fish - so the authorities regulated that food industry. They have extra protocols for heating up fish - people eat that cold out of the can).

@xyzsame4081 2 года назад

If you ALWAYS heat them up, work fast and very cleanly and methodically (the steam heater likely helps with that ) - and do not give away any jars where you took liberties (not adding the recommended acid, but also not following the protocols that heat up longer) you should be O.K. At worst a jar will go bad, but you will notice. And maybe inspecting them so you can see if bubbles form that show fermenting (a jar could explose and create a mess).

@xyzsame4081 2 года назад

The USDA or comparable sites have information. Caning gone wrong is a public health risk. If you KNOW what _could_ go wrong you can tweak the process. As long as you are not selling or giving food away.

@marilyny6958 Год назад

I noticed you didn't skim the foam off the top of the cherries before you put them in the jars. I thought this was important

@dwjr5129 3 года назад

I’m guessing you don’t have A/C and are suffering through the western heat wave. Maybe an ice cream making vid is on tap to help cool you off?!?!

@TechnologistLive 3 года назад

I blend frozen black raspberries, frozen strawberries and a bit of raw cream, nothing else added. it's not as sweet as ice cream, but trivially simple to make, a gelato of sorts,and everyone eats all they get. Once used to this, ice cream seems way too sweet and not very flavorful. It freezes rock hard, but allowed to slow melt in refig before eating takes on a wonderful gelato texture.
