Hi, I have been canning now for one year and I love it. I never knew there was an electric canner out there, I just bought myself a Christmas gift ❤
You need to try dry canning them. I wash, chop, thoroughly dry and then add a small amount of ghee and different seasonings to the potatoes, add them to jars and process 15# (my altitude) for recommended time. It’s a game changer. Been doing it this way for years and it’s so much better than just over boiled potatoes. ❤️🙏🏼
Thank you so much for sharing this idea! I didn’t know I could do it that way! I will definitely be trying this!❤️❤️
I swear i can smell the goodness. 😌 Smell-o-vision should be a thing! 🙂👍 🎄🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🎅🤶🛷
Haha! I know exactly what you mean! The smell of Chex mix in the oven is a magical thing! Thanks for watching!
@@valleyviewfarm1905 😊🪄
BRANDON DOES THE VOICE FOR BLTIZO!??!
Why the zinc?
It helps preserve the color of the green beans and keeps them from getting brownish. Thank you for watching! Great question!
@valleyviewfarm1905 Great tip!! Thanks!!!
House is beautiful. I'll read Proverbs: 31 tonight. I haven't been in Proverbs in awhile. I like read it, reflect, journal and apply ❤ Thanks
Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes it is a good read! Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
God bless you!
Thank you!
Yummy! I see a lot of beautiful pumpkin pies in your future ❤
Yes! Thank you! I’m hoping to share some of my holiday baking for Thanksgiving!
So beautiful! And I love her dress!! ❤
You are so kind! It was gorgeous!
I love your look and your aprons are adorable
Awe thank you so much! I get my aprons off Amazon! Thank you for watching!❤️
I pressed a thumbs up but the numbers didn't change?
@@RobertNeem-h8x I’m not sure, but thank you for the like!
The number changes when you refresh the page.
GET RID OFF THAT DAM NOISE!!!!!!
I’m sorry! I was making ice cream in the background…part of homemaking is being able to multitask!
Now them cinnamon rolls look good as ever girl🤤🤤😂😂i would take a pan
Haha!! Thank you! They are soooo easy!
Your husband is a blessed man
Awe thank you so much!
Congratulations to the lovely couple. What a beautiful barn. Great place for any kind of party
Thank you for your kind words!
You didn't show the steam bath part. I assume you did this. You can't just put stuff in cans and not seal them properly. People might watch this and just put stuff together in cans and die of botulism.
Yeah I forgot to video that part lol! I would certainly hope someone wouldn’t just put the lids on. This recipe calls for pressure canning for 55 mins for pints at 15lbs. Anyone that has canning experience should know not to just put lids on anything. You need to water bath or pressure can to safely can at home.
wait whaaaat thats a crazy amount of pumpkin puree
Haha yeah sometimes I get a little carried away lol! Never hurts to have plenty in the pantry 🥰
This is awesome! It's ok to be wrong when you're first learning. I'm sure it still tasted great! Keep it up!!
Thank you so much for your kind words!❤️
Very cool! Great editing!!
Thank you!
Looks good! my mom loves roasting the seeds of these carving pumpkins with a little oil and salt. good for salads, parfaits, and trail mix. My family doesn't eat meat regularly so it's a little boost of protein, too
That is a great idea! Unfortunately I already fed all the seeds/guts to my chickens (I think they appreciated the treat!🤣) but next time I will save some! Thank you for watching!
@@valleyviewfarm1905 thats good too! No waste.
Wow wrong kind of pumpkins. Wasted your labor.
Not a waste! Made 2 pumpkin pies yesterday and they were delicious!🥰
@@valleyviewfarm1905 Halloween pumpkins are lower in carbs, a little less sweet, but we’re adding sugar anyway! They work perfectly and are cheaper! Thinking of canning sweet potatoes instead because they are easier to prep!❤❤❤
@@brendahoffer5534I never considered sweet potatoes! Thanks for the idea!
These pumpkins have a bit more water content and a little less sweet, but they still make great pies, soups, and baked goods. I'd rather use these pumpkins than throw them away every Halloween
Wow, looks good!
Thank you!
Cool video! Typically you want to use sugar pumpkins for this though. Carving pumpkins have a higher water content, are a bit of a tougher, and not as tasty. It’s typically only really notable in baked goods. I bet these would be excellent for quick creamy soups though!
Wow thank you for the tip! I will check into that next time!
I was about to ask haha. I harvest my pumpkins way smaller and hoped I could let them grow bigger haha. Would it be better to cut a carving pumpkin in smaller pieces and placing them upside down? This way you get some more roastiness to it while also losing more water. For soups
Lol! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with slipping potatoes when peeling them :D
Haha I know right?!? They are so slippery!
delishhh
Yessss!! Thank you!
Can I get some of them cookies. Yummy. Gorgeous couple by the way. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The cookie table looked and tasted amazing! The Cookie Momma (Nancy Macintire) does an amazing job! Thank you for watching🥰

Haha! Yeah this time of year is a struggle with the flies in a farmhouse🤣 thanks for watching!
Way too much cream in that cookie
It's marshmallow lol
That is the beauty of homemade items…you can add as much or as little as you want🥰
سلام عليكم ❤❤❤❤❤

سلام هذا شيء التي تعملين يوعجبمني أنا من المغرب
That looks so good!
It was delicious! Definitely a staple in our house!
How long and what lbs did you cook them at ?
10 lbs. for 40 mins for quarts! Thanks for watching!!!
@@valleyviewfarm1905how long do I boil them to water bath?
@ I am honestly not sure how long to water bath. I usually follow what the ball canning book says.
@@bobbicapton6376have to be pressure canned. Potatoes are a low acid food
@@valleyviewfarm1905 I have to do mine at 15# pressure. I’m in high altitude.
🤤
Ma'am your home or wherever your shooting this looks so awesome. And the pizza looks delicious thanks for the tips
Thank you so much!! That is so kind of you!
I obviously don't know how much was spent on this wedding. But being from this lifestyle myself, I would be willing to bet that this marriage will outlast the ones that they spent 250, ooo on. Good luck to this couple.
They were a very sweet couple, with strong roots in their faith. I am looking forward to watching them build a life together!
Nice! Takes me back 40+ years to me milking my goats in the morning and evening. But I had to do it all by hand. Fresh milk is soooo good!!
We talked about getting a milk goat, I hear the milk is easier to digest! But we decided on a cow bc I wanted a high cream content and large volumes! Thank you for sharing your milk story! Did you ever make any homemade soap with milk? I’m curious to try that!
Are those pumpkin whoopie pies?!😳 my friend is gonna love these!
Yes they are! They have a buttercream icing in the middle, and are absolutely delicious! Thanks for watching!
Lovely cookie sandwiches!
Thank you!
"Homemade" but you used canned pumpkin filling😂
Oh shut up. Most home bakers have jobs/kids/lives and can't make every ingredient from scratch. Are you going out to the Caribbean to harvest your cane sugar? Are you killing, skinning and separating your animal fat and storing it instead of using shortening? Are you travling to India to get whole spices of nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves? Are you making your own all spice? For shame, you lazy TH-cam commenter. Are you even a real baker if you aren't doing that?
“Homemade” and “Scratch-made” are two different things. I try to be as wholesome as I can, but it is tough to be 100%. Thank you for your insight!
Yes girl...put that Kitchenaid to work! Get aaaaallllll the bang for those bucks ❤
Yes! I use my kitchen aid for literally everything!🤣 thanks for watching!!
Thats crazy ive never seen an apple peeler before! 🔥
They are amazing and worth it!
How did I not know I could get an apple peeler for my KitchenAid? As far as waste, I would put the cores in a different bowl and toss them out for the chickens or compost. The peels would go into my freeze dryer for snacking or apple powder. (You freeze dry whatever it is and throw it in the blender and make a powder out of it. I use it for cooking, ice cream toppings, the cheese is great on popcorn... There are a dozen different ways you can use the powders.) I have issues with my hands and after peeling and coring about six apples I'm done but this little attachment would make life so much easier! I could make apple butter and apple sauce again. I just watched it again and realized it slices as it peels- as it should- food dehydrator here I come!❤😊😊
I 100% agree! This peeler, corer, and slicer, is worth its weight in gold! I gave the scraps to our cattle and they absolutely loved it! If I only had a bushel or two to do, I might consider doing it by hand, but I had 7 bushel between sauce and the freezer🥴 I haven’t gotten into freeze drying, but definitely something on the horizon for me to try! I hear a lot of people love it! Thank you for all the info, and for watching!
@@valleyviewfarm1905 If you have a dehydrator you can do that with the peels too, they make great snacks dehydrated or freeze-dried. Hell, you can dehydrate them in the oven now that it's starting to cool down, lol.
Yeah I definitely want to get into freeze drying and dehydrating!
If she's paying for the apples, that's an awful lot of waste. I could process these by hand with a knife, peeler, and potato masher, and with the cleanup it would be be less time.
I appreciate the insight!
There should be an adjustment for making the peels thinner. Then cook the peeis and cored, drip drain the liquid for jelly or pancake syrup and put the rest through a food mill and make apple butter. The very dry pulp left can then go to critters. Not one drop of waste. My mom and I used a hand driven peeler, and a Foley food mill. Easily did a bushel in a day. Results: applesauce, juice for jelly, and apple butter. Yummy 😊
What did you spoon in the jars??
I put 1 teaspoon of salt in each quart jar, just to help preserve flavor, color, and texture! Thanks for watching🥰
Those look gorgeous.
Thank you! We have had 4 or 5 jars and they taste amazing!
That looks amazing! You did a great job!
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching!
