Have you seen those videos of goods that have meat in them that last 1 year, such as bacon or pork belly, beef, and chicken? They are usually done by foreign accounts (non-American and non-Canadian) these items are cooked in small pieces and then placed in a jar once filled they are filled with salt, 9% vinegar, and sometimes spices such as chili or paprika or garlic depending on the dish.
I love your set up. Why don't you like the green beans?
Congratulations on your abundant, successful garden! I am wholly impressed with your expansive pantry 🤗
Seriously , I also stock a lot of food. Lately I’ve wondered if nuke fallout won’t render it useless.
I bet you and your family can withstand a long term power outage
You see, in my humble opinion, I believe that this version of food managing and production is what was meant to be the standard in a majority of households. I think the world would be better off and people would be happier spending more time doing something as meaningful and purposeful as working hard for food and appreciating the effort required to produce a healthy food supply. The industrial revolution was a crazy thing
I doubt people were happier before the Industrial Revolution. We know from scientific research that humans mostly find happiness through meaningful connections with others and through spending time with those people.
If I had known society stood a very real chance of collapsing somewhere in my 40s, I would have gone into botany and agriculture instead of computer science.
I read that 60% of those who got a degree in computer science can’t get a job in it
@@NarasimhaDiyasena It is true unfortunately
You can still get into it! There might be a life where tech and agriculture can co-exist.
Never to late to start
You can learn it quick its no science 😉
Turmeric not only makes the pickles look pretty but the health benefits of turmeric are fantastic!
my grandmother was a master canner, and gardener. seems like everyone in my family has almost given up this lost art. I worked as a from scratch cook at an italian restaurant in 2010 and have moved onto curing, making aged cheese, beer, cider, wine, fridge pickles, saurkraut, kimchi etc (barrel aged dark beer) pasta, bread, jams/jellies (wine is effing HARD to make well) and I have a large winter and summer garden (zone 9) and making and freezing several gallons of marinara from our home grown romas every year etc. the last realms I have yet to touch is canning and grinding & aging various cured meats. (only ever made prosciutto) but I REALLY want to continue her legacy and learn to can
How do you make cheese and what kinds?
I hope you do keep her legacy
🙏🏼💕🙏🏼
Excellent pantry tour. My wife and I put up more than we can use every year - I guess we are used to having kids around. Just a note to Dan - I learned from my grandma to fill empty jars with clean water (clean used lid and ring) and return them to the back of the row. It solves several problems like storing empty jars, keeping product to the front looking organized and you never know when some emergency water might be needed.
That is seriously the BEST idea! Thank you so much for the tip.
This is the best idea I have heard! Especially in this day and age - clean water is hard to get from any city or village.
Wow, what a fabulous idea!
I put up a lot for a single women living alone. But I have 4 people I plan to feed if and when things get tough. I eat from the beginning of my canning year. I’m into October, 2021. It has saved me so much money living on social security. Food is one thing I don’t have to worry about. I can concentrate on heat and lights. I had to add that I too store water in every empty jar I own.
We started doing this recently and it just makes so much sense that I could kick myself for not thinking of it myself ( I saw a comment like yours a couple of months ago ) it was truly a DUH moment for me!
If you have a barrel, fill it with clean sand, layer your root veggies in it. and they stay nice and firm. I am 79 years old, and clearly remember my grandparents doing this. Carrots, etc.A nice addition to your root cellar.
Layer the vegetable on top of each other, or layer them with the sand? Ty
@@phaedrabrooks5392 Sand
@@phaedrabrooks5392 put a layer of sand, or straw (not hay), or shredded paper (nothing glossy) or wood chips, or saw dust, on the bottom of your crate, then place a layer of potatoes, (not touching each other) then cover them with a layer of sand, then spread another layer of potatoes another layer of sand.... Keep making layers with the sand, potatoes, sand, potatoes.
**And for carrots, you basically do the same, but you store them
in dirt. ✔️😉👍
We used news paper...
My great grandparents always used to use sawdust.. but they also had an enormous supply of wood product because of acres and acres of forest on their property.
Моя русская душа радуется, глядя с одобрением на такие отличные запасы!
GIRL!!!
You HAVE TO try canning quick breads (banana bread, Boston brown bread, zucchini bread, etc) wide mouth pint jars, greased, filled half way with batter, bake @ 350* till done, wipe rims, lids & rings, wait for the pop. Awesome winter breads ready to eat in the summer. I've tried and test a jar a month, over a year and they taste fresh and moist. MUST use wide mouth pint jars, or the breads don't come out of the jars as nice. Tons of TH-cam videos on it.
Dangerous…you create an environment for botulism to grow. Please be careful.
Thank you!!
I have a shitton of zucchini I grew that I use for bread...this is a great idea.😊
Holy smokes. My wife makes about a dozen jars of salsa each year and I thought we were doing great. 😂 Your pantry and canning expertise is next level. Awesome.
I’ve only ever pickled onions and made strawberry jam. Salsa is a whole other level to me.
We love salsa. Last batch made 82 jars. Use it in spaghetti. With pepper and onions. And 1 Jared of garden variety sauce. Omg yummmm
12 more than I made so . . .❤
Same!
Turmeric is not just good for color, it's a natural antiseptic and also antibacterial. Your pantry looks amazing. You worked really hard for it, thanks for sharing with us.
Put some turmeric, ginger & garlic in a jar of honey.
Leave it sit a couple of weeks.
Be sure to burp the jar the first week.
It makes a great at hand medicine.
Don't forget fresh LemonGrass it's properities are very beneficial if living out in the colder states like that..
It’s also an anti inflammatory! Use it, you won’t be sorry! 👍🏼
Tip: Store your plastic buckets of food on wood planks supported with small bricks underneath. The chemicals in concrete, sealants, and paints can leech into your buckets over time. I really enjoyed the tour of your beautiful pantry💗 Alot of hardwork went into that for sure!
I was also taught the same thing. Plastic buckets can absorb moisture & other things from the concrete.
My ex’s family makes their own jellies and jams. When they give gifts they usually include a couple jars just to use their inventory. My favorite, i ate several jars on its own, was Apple Grape jam. Stuff was heavenly, used it in PBJ’s instead of normal grape jelly. Absolute game changer
You know what I also realized? While this pantry is expensive to replicate by todays standards, go back 150~200 years and it’s the holy grail of food
One suggestion. Store the vinegar on the bottom shelf, relocating your medical supplies above liquids. We've had plastic bottles leak, causing damage to items below.
That's a fantastic point! Thank you so much!
GOALS! This was like being invited into someone's home after your car breaks down, and being shown the most interesting and fabulous things just to keep you occupied, all out of kindness. I'm so impressed with your preservation and organisation, you two are a great team! I hope I can manage something like this one day.
This may be my favourite comment! I'm so glad you felt that way. ❤️
How do you keep track of things when nothing is labeled 🏷?
@@georgevavoulis4758 left side/right side, there's almost always a color difference to go by. I'd personally look for some labeling or an info panel but once you're used to it it just flows I suppose?
I second that!
Your food is so creative and delicious looking.
I used to can for the year round on a farm in WV. Fortunately, my husband and brother did most of the gardening and harvesting. We had a good root cellar with plenty of shelf space, bins for potatoes and root crops. I made cheese every other day, and baked bread every week. It got challenging during canning season keeping the bread and cheese production going. So I sympathize with you for abandoning that task. There were quite a few late night marathon canning sessions going through to the fall. It helps to have a few extra hands! You are both to be congratulated for the work that feeds your family! Nice tour!!!
I'm never going to do this but watching everything that you are doing is so soothing to my soul.
I'm just so impressed!!
You're giving so much back, thank you 😊.
I really appreciate that. Thank you.
Getting dry food off a concrete floor is absolutely critical if you are going to want it to last long term. Concrete holds lots of moisture and anything placed directly onto concrete will always get damp. Those platforms you built from reclaimed timber are going to save you a lot of headaches regardless of flooding.
Hi, I`m 88 yrs. old, canned a lot when my children were all at home. But it never gets out of your blood. You have done a unbelievable job of growing, preserving, in such beautiful order. Feel sorry that I can`t do exactly like you. BUT in my journey through so many DIY`s I have learned a ton of information, and enjoy what we do now. For the first time I dry canned half gallon jars of garbanzo beans, red lentils, jasmine and basmati rice. Have also dry canned four different kinds of pasta, so really proud of those. I live with my daughter and son-in-law, so we share in all of this. And was given a gift of a dyhydrater so have done oregano, lemon thyme, english thyme, sage, parsley, mandarin orange slices, dried mandarin orange skins, tomatoes, and apples. I do have backup food, several kinds of beans, canned tomatoes, meats, oils, dried garlic, dried onions, and a lot more. I am fully convinced that even aside from having a full stock of food for your family, there is coming a time when food is going to be even more sparse than it is now.
My grandmother used to put up 1000 jars or more when I was a kid in Montana. When you say you’re passionate about counting I completely understand that, it is the most satisfying and rewarding process that anyone could be involved in. It is a true craft that not many people are able to do or master well. How very well organized your space is….
Most people just don't understand the "pure time" involved in the preparation of foods, preparation of the jars, organization of every step....AND...that is not counting the actual canning with the jars in the canner. !!! But if you ever try it and visually see your results, you will be a newbie but you will get to experience "that canner's secret "
rip
This is the most thoughtful, well stocked storage system I’ve ever seen. My grandparents and my parents grew big gardens and canned everything. This, however, is truly great. BIG HIP HIP HURRAY, to you guys. Do we get to see the garden sometime? Thanks for sharing, love this.
I share the garden and putting up all the food all summer long! I'd love for you to stick around. Thank you so much!
Just to help you: my Mother stored carrots in large crock jars in sand she layered sand, (lay carrots sideways)carrots, sand, carrots, till full. It kept the carrots firm and so they didn’t become dry. She stored potatoes I believe the same way in a galvanized horse waterer.
I have seen a similar technique done with salt...
As soon as you showed all of the jams, jellies and syrups I was overwhelmed with nostalgia of my mother canning chokecherry syrup, Saskatoon berry jam and syrup, apple jelly and sauce, rhubarb and strawberry jam, peach jam, dandelion jelly, etc. when i was just a kid. The smell of the kitchen was always so comforting. Thank you for bringing back memories 💕😊
I picked over a kilo of chokecherries this year. It’s settle in the freezer til I have room on the shelves to jelly it. Never tasted them so this will be another experiment!!
@@janw491 I wish you luck with that project; it sounds like you have alot to process! 😊
I grew up in Alberta and description reminds me of my childhood and grandma’s canning up of chokecherries and Saskatoon berries ❤
@@janw491 they make a great wine also. My great grandmother always made chokecherry wine. I miss it.
Glad to see the strips for earthquake protection on the pantry shelves. I get so twitchy watching all these pantries being shown that are so vulnerable even to a large dog or child accidentally knocking a jar or 2 off the shelf. Nice pantry.
Thank you!
For your canned chicken and legs that you say is stringy, you can make chicken stew, chicken and dumplins or chicken salad for sandwiches. Hope this helps, I LOVE YOUR PANTRY and root cellar!
What an amazing pantry. Thank you so much for the tour!!
Omg... I remember when you first started and use to sleep on the kitchen floor! lol... Your kids were little. Now they have their own gardens? wow... how time flies.
You have grown!
You worked so hard. You deserve it.
Congratulations!
I love the concept of being self reliant and producing my own food growing fruit , vegetables , herbs , raising animals and supplying my own solar electricity and water this has always been a dream of mine . I am the kind of person who finds satisfaction in my hard work and reaping the benefits in the end results and I am working towards moving out to the country and living out my dream . Thank you for showing us the tour of your pantry it is an inspiration to me and encourages me to work all the more harder towards my goal . Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺.
Nice to see your hubby is a solid supporter on your ideas, hope you guys are doing great!
You’re so kind to your husband❤️ it’s such an encouragement! So thankful for this video! Your pantry is my goal!!
Chelsea I think you are an incredible woman!!! All of those canned foods are hours and hours of work and I’m like you when it comes to preserving foods. I absolutely love how well you do it. I also respect your knowledge that you know you aren’t the best cheese maker or the best tincture maker and I think that’s very smart to realize it and to accept it and to know that there is another way of dealing with it. Simply order tinctures from a reputable maker. Besides maybe Dan will be able to try his hand at cheesemaking and perhaps he will be able to show you how to do it?! Why not?! Do you make your own apple cider vinegar?🥰🇨🇦❤️
I have made about 1 kilo of wild Fireweed this year in Russia. It's rather popular here and many companies produce Fireweed tea. Also, there are people, especially in the country, who love making Fireweed tea themselves. Rubbing leaves with your hands is a physically hard and long process because you need to break up leaf cells so that they become wet for further fermentation. I use a different method: put the leaves in small plastic bags and then in a freezer for at least 24 hours (can be longer so you can continue the process when you have time, days or weeks later). Freezing allows leaf cells to break up. After that you can either roll the leaves with your hands as usual or, the easier way, to grind them through a meat grinder, and you will have granulated tea in the end. Then you ferment the mass and dry it either in the sun or in a stove. Some people love to fry fermented leaves, the tea comes black.
Very helpful tip. Thank you.
Omg, freezing is a super clever way to break up the cell structure! Nice tip!
Наконец-то комментарии от русских 😊 нам точно есть, что рассказать про консервирование и запасы продуктов
I’m in absolute awe of your amazing pantry and root cellar. Obviously so much hard work has gone into this. Fabulous job to all involved x
This is an absolute dream! Thank you for the inspiration. I hope to get to this point over the next couple of years.
My goodness, the pantry has turned out so beautiful and well organized. You can both be real proud of all that hard work!
Thank you so much!
So beautiful and well organized
If you don’t like the green beans find some ham bones and some summer savory and make the most delicious soup. With ham chunks, onions, potatoes, summer savory and add the canned beans …..makes a great soup! I always add a small amount of cream at the table and fresh homemade buns with butter. Yum
Wow. Have you guys ever inspired me to look more into preserving foods more efficiently. I am so very impressed. Cheers.
I love your enthusiasm. Thank you for sharing your experience with us 😁🙏🏼
What to do with the chicken: Chicken Slurp Gravy - chop to size you like or shred; make like a thickish cream of chicken soup; goes well on: fried potatoes; mashed potatoes; baked potatoes; biscuits; just about anything you usually put a good thick gravy on. We get ours from an old recipe my husband's mother used to make for chicken & dumplings. Great pantry!
Your husband did a great job of not only organizing things by category, which you probably already did, but by laying them out so the colors are most beautiful. It is truly a beautiful Bountiful pantry.
So inspired by your efforts and sharing all of this with us. Thank you
Great video. Love hearing all the detail.
The pantry is a spectacular work of art! So pleasing to the eye. I’ve always loved your root cellar. It’s like a mysterious secret hidden space. I don’t think many true root cellars exist anymore. Be well and stay safe, Doc❤
I have one... my house is on the Historic Register.
The stringy chicken legs would be good in pulled chicken (sorta like pulled pork) using a zingy bbq sauce on homemade buns. Yum. That’s my suggestion to use up those hidden jars. 😂
Or chopped up for chicken tacos.
Thank you for the inspiration and tips.
You are AMAZING..great tour thank you x
I've canned a lot of salmon in quart jars, and in those, the canning time does pretty much dissolve the bones. It looks like you are canning in pint jars, which is probably why your bones aren't dissolving as much as you'd like. Although, they never just disappear entirely. They do get soft enough that they shouldn't be a choking hazard, which is my biggest concern with fish bones.
Good point! I’ll bet that’s why.
So I personally found that I like to can my salmon in half pint jars. Anything bigger and I felt like it dried it out, but in the half pints it's soooooo moist... And tasty
Yours is the most extensive pantry, cold pantry and root celler I've personally visualized. I learned basic canning from my mother and grandmothers who canned a lot, but not in the amounts that you've done! Very informative and impressive tour of being prepared for long-term nutritional needs! This is the first time I've seen your channel. Thank you for sharing your life with us! 👏👏👏👍
I appreciate all your labor of love you put yourself out sharing with us and I want to thankyou for all you shared
So thankful you share your journey as well as Jessica ❤❤
Chelsea, I think you set the standard for Canning Pantry Tours on TH-cam! Three Rivers Homestead, Homesteading Family, and That 1870s Homestead are right up there with you, but with 11 kids, in freezing Canada, you really take the cake!
My suggestion about canning chicken: cut up whole chickens, freeze the parts, use the carcasses for stock and soup. Canned thighs are a waste of my favorite part, frozen is better. I like using canned drumsticks in a Basque chicken stew whenever I can get good Spanish chorizo, which isn't often, so I usually just pull it off the bones and use it for soup or mushroomy casseroles. Frozen chicken breasts are useful in so many recipes so I like getting them at the whole chicken price for the effort of cutting them up (I spent one day cutting up a dozen chickens and after that I got very fast, same thing with duck!)
That is seriously high praise! Thank you so much.😊
You and Dan are great partners. The shelves are absolutely beautiful as are all of the beautiful jars of canned food.💥
Bravo! That is hard work, and it makes me smile to see someone be passionate about it and take pride in doing a great job at it. Blessings to you and your family from Oklahoma, USA.
Thank you for the inspiration and absolute joy watching this video. Please keep making videos!!
Good afternoon Little Mountain Ranch. Now that's what I'd call a well stocked pantry. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend, you wonderful strong, self-sufficient offgrid woman. 😎😉🌹🌻🌼
I’m left speechless looking at all your hard work. On top of all the cooking and canning you casually mentioned you do 3 loads of laundry every day! 😳 Good Grief! I can only hope your husband treasures you for the incredible housewife you are. 👏👏👏
Loved this! Thank you for sharing.
I'm in 3B/4a and I'm amazed at how much you grow! I'll be subscribing. ❤️ What an inspiration!
Love your pantry tours! If there were awards for “Pretty Pantries” you’d win hands down😉
For your canned chicken, my suggestion would be the following:
1. Grind them up, add a couple of eggs, and a little bread binder and make a basic sausage. Then make nuggets size pieces. Bread each bit of chicken as nuggets and then fry.
2. If you have ever been to a fast food joint that makes chicken sandwiches, it's just a large chicken sausage
3. For Asian food, grill the chicken meat, and add a soy-based sweet sauce over rice.
4. Thinly cut the chicken and then dehydrate it for jerky
5. Canned chicken pot pies
6. Mince the chicken to then make Asian dumplings (add garlic, ginger, and green onion and if you have gelatinized fat, then you can make soup dumplings, and don't forger a little MSG.) if not, make pot stickers
Just a few thoughts. If you want any recipes, I can create various recipes based on your pantry and or authenticity.
What other recipes do you have? Just curious
❤ Thanks
this was quite inspiring! thank you for sharing!
I love your pantry! Thank you for the tour!
This is an amazing tour! Way to go! Before you give up on green beans, if you can grow your own, pick the beans quite young, before the bean inside has much shape, they are like candy, so good and different from the green beans you buy anywhere!
Yay! Another pantry tour! I loved your old pantries/root cellar videos. 💕🐐🐓🐃🐄🐑🐕🐈⬛💕
Your cellars are awesome!!! Thank you!
I am so impressed, it looks fantastic.
What an absolutely beautiful bounty that showcases your family’s hard work!!! The canning shelves are particularly impressive.
Phenomenal job, Chelsea! The pantry looks beautiful!! Don’t you just love being able to display all your hard work in a way you can stand back and admire it? Great job on the shelves, Dan!
Such a beautiful pantry!🤍🤍 truly goals 🤗
You are the answer to my prayer. Thank you.
I thought I'd done something wrong, because I lost my cabbages, too. Finding out that it's not just me is very comforting. So glad I found your video.
Wonderful progress & great tour with comments of what your family likes! Thanks for sharing! We have a short growing season in Central/west Alberta also. My daughter & her partner bought an acreage with greenhouses & I was gifted many hundreds of tomatoes to can this year! I’m in my 7th decade so it took me several days to do them (first time making canning salsas & spaghetti sauce), so anyone can learn!
Many blessings to your wonderful family! Great organization of your foods! 🤗❤️
Thank you ! that was my favorite pantry video so far thank you for sharing.
This is my ULTIMATE GOAL and dream!! I loved this video!! And I am beyond excited for all of the fruits of your labor!! Good for you!! It all looks so wonderful 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Omg. Your pantry (and canning skills) are amazing!! 👏🏻 It’s so wonderful to grow your own food & preserve it to be used throughout the year. So stinkin cool. ☺️
It's been fun watching the evolution of your food storage rooms, they are looking fantastic! I appreciate all of the work that has gone into them and that you share them and a bunch of tips as you go along. I'm going over to Three Rivers Homestead next, you are both big inspirations to me. Thanks Chelsea!
Thank you for sharing your pantry, this is quite fascinating.
I could feel your passion. God bless your homestead!
Your harvest looks beautiful, cheers to all you hard work 😊
Great video Chelsea. It’s such a great sense of accomplishment and security having all that food put away. Love it. Thank you 🌷
Props to y'all simply amazing
I so LOVED your video! Thank-you both for sharing! Wonderful ideas & helpful insite! ❤
All the way through this video I've tried to think of the perfect word to describe how beautiful your pantry is..an all the hard Dan has done to make your dreams come true..the word that keeps coming to mind is BREATHTAKING..🏆❤️❤️ absolutely breathtaking
Thank you so much!❤️
You can make Brunswick stew with the canned chicken that is stringy. This is a southern favorite and it will not matter if it’s stringy.
Amazing i love it!!! Thankyou for making this video
Wow! It’s great. Like your enthusiasm and hobby very much.
Hi Chelsea - absolutely love your pantry and root cellar. I’m in zone 3a in MB and we had many difficulties this year due to major flooding in the area which also caused a lack of bees for pollinators - we did manage to grow some veg, but it was about 1/3 of our normal production. So thankful that the previous 2 years had been super bountiful so our family will do just fine this winter as most of the veg had been canned or frozen. Dan did a wonderful job building the shelving and organizing the canning. I love watching your canning and cooking videos - you have some wonderful ideas.
I am Canadian retiree landed in the middle of Poland. I started quite successfully veg gardening so all ideas for food preservation are wonderful.
So far I eas mostly feeding my friends and neighbours and started preserving. Gorgeous pantry, thanks for showing!
Congratulations with the success you’re having with the pantry and the root cellar. I commend you for having a passion, and even better, going after it.
I very much enjoyed your pure joy from all the hard work that went into this. Excellent organization too from someone who loves organizing, I bet that took HOURS
I canned chicken legs and breasts together in quart jars and it’s also not very
pretty:) But it is delicious in chicken enchiladas! I would suggest using 1 can of your legs/thighs with 1 can of your chicken breast. Should be delicious and help mask some of the texture you don’t like.
All I can say is, WOW! I stand in awe at both of you.
WoW! Congratulations ! Lot of work!
Awesome set up. Thanks for sharing!
What a great team you guys are. I'm looking forward to Dan taking up cheese making and hope you will tag along well in the process to find some smaller/easier cheese making projects and get going again.
Really love your videos! This one is awesome. Great job organizing, Dan! I can see the love and excitement you have for your hard work reward of a full pantry, Chelsea. I know the feeling well. Great team work you two!
You both Rock! I love the pantry setup.
I enjoyed this so much! I never seen so much food beauty
That was amazing. Thanks so much, Chelsea & Dan for sharing such beauty with us.
I absolutely enjoyed the pantry tour, thank you so much. It is fascinating to see that you are able to can and store for a large family the way you do it and I do understand if you enjoy a bit of relaxation regarding canning during the wintertime!! And Dan is an excellent Photographer. All the best to you and your family.
So nice to have so much storage space
