Jessica, please don't ever think that a video might not be worth shooting because it's so easy. I for one am learning a lot through your videos and appreciate these insights no matter how small you feel they are. Thank you for sharing with us. xx
Absolutely, thank you
True, even old birds like me can use inspiration from others about preserving food and which ones are best for which method.
Totally agree! I got so much useful info from the “little easy video”
I totally agree!!
I agree!!
So, apparently you are a close friend of mine. You literally play on my TV almost every day as a background noise while I clean, cook, plan my garden - during my son's nap. Lol! Thanks for having such a welcoming, informative, and relatable channel. ❤
"Turn your waiting room into a classroom" is such a perfect saying for when we find excuses for why we can start participating or learning right now. Thank you Jess 💕
That statement has what has kept me going and not feeling so impatient that I give up. On our second year garden and have water canned as of now😊
I have only started watching your channel for the last month or 2 and you have quickly become my favorite veggie garden channel! Love these post harvest videos!
Same here. I learn so much here.
Who else is in love with that bandana? 😍
I had no idea that a brine was that easy to make! I love being your student! Be Blessed
I love listening to you and learning!!!! You are so young to be so wise! I admire that! Thanks for teaching us older ones!
You have given me confidence. Don't ever think anything is too simple. I watched this video 5 times, even checking to see if I was cutting the veggies right. Lol!
Great video!😍 I just made fridge pickles a few days ago using Boston pickling cucumbers that I harvested from my garden. I did a small cucumber harvest and shared it on my TH-cam channel Life's A Project. Don't ever feel silly for doing these types of videos. They are so helpful and I'm sure many viewers have never made fridge pickles before. 😁
I’m a new gardener, so I’m learning these skills now. My mom always had a huge garden and did all the canning, root cellar, etc. I wish I had cared growing up to learn what she knew! Thank you for sharing for those of us learning these skills now ♥️
Thanks Jess -- If you have grape leaves you can fold them tightly and put them in the head space pushing down the vegetables
I love the idea of pickling onions!We often have the rest of an onion that I need to deal with, and love the idea of preserving them by pickling, instead of letting them go bad. 🤪
Pickled onions is a big thing here in the UK.
You can always freeze it for future cooked recipes.
Janene Meents pickled onions are so good. Gonna go get me one now!!!
I had a gift of 5 cucumbers from a friend's garden, so I made pickles on Sunday. I put red onion in because that's what I had. And I bought a slicer for my kitchen aid mixer, so I got to try that out too. They were so good!
Corey Davidson there’s a slicer for those mixers?? I need to look into that - my mixer doesn’t get used enough! 😄
TYVM🌟💖🌟Roots & Refuge Farm appreciate your gardening and preserving tips. Listening from Mass USA Hello👋 everyone watching 🌟💖🌟
Jess, please don't ever think these videos are silly because what you're teaching is "so simple". I am a high school math teacher and I always remind myself that what is "common knowledge" in my brain is not necessarily all that common. Nobody likes to ask the dumb questions. You are a knowledgeable, kind, patient and gifted teacher, please never stop sharing your expertise.
Please don't feel silly for posting this video. I have been waiting for it. I generally am an idiot when it comes to most things planted, and it's because of your videos that I decided this year to try and grow my own garden. I have learned all about tomatoes because of you, and have five different varieties growing, including Brad's Atomic Grape, which I was super shocked to learn existed. Then super stoked to order and plant. I started this very late for the deep south, so they will be an August/September harvest, as will my cucumbers. Thank you, sincerely!
Same here I started my garden a bit late, greetings from south alabama.
@@10huskys Hi from East Central MS :)
@@Jenufir I subbed to your channel btw lol
@@10huskys If I can manage to grow some of this stuff, I will absolutely shoot and upload a video of it. Thank you!
@@Jenufir it would be cool!
“Ru my name” I’m dead 🤣🤣
I just did a ton of radish seed pods in a quick hot pickle and we put them on tacos! So tasty. Great video!
You can eat the seed pods? Yet another thing to try! Thanks!
@@markie3394 yes, when they are fresh and still meaty green they are amazing! Even alone
I just learned last week that you could eat the pods. I have been growing radishes for years. They are pretty good. Many of mine are hanging to get seeds but I have a batch in the garden that has flower up so I am going to try pickling them.
@@amyziesmer5189 Wow, I just pulled my radishes up a week ago, I guess I'll have to try this with my fall planting.
Radish seed pods are sooo good!!!
refrigerator pickles and carrots are on the list this season
This is an important skill to have. My dill did not come up this year so grateful for local Farmer's Markets that will keep us in Dill.
Did some quick pickling today for the first time after watching this video! It was so fun, and I am so excited! I spent the rest of the evening randomly remembering them in the fridge and smiling. My husband kept asking “what?” And I’d just say “fridge pickles!” With a big old grin on my face. Pretty sure he thinks I’m crazy 😜 but I had so much fun and it was so easy!!!
I really like this "new" format. It gives me additional options and helps to get my feet wet. ;)
Thank you so much! This simplified pickling recipe will be so helpful to me. I’ve been researching pickle recipes and became overwhelmed pretty quickly. This seems much more manageable and economical. Your kitchen looks lovely btw! Great job to you and Miah!
True for me too.. too much information is overwhelming..
Love these food preservation videos. Looking forward to more. Enjoy!
I used my new water bath for the first time last night and made pickles!
I bet the pickled onions would be amazing on top of a summer salad!
Your videos always inspire me to get out into the garden! I'm so glad I found your channel, thanks for all the great advice and pep talks!
Absolutely love how informative and chill you are! Although so simple it's new to me, so this video was really helpful!! Thank you 🤘🦕🤘
Really appreciate an easy recipe. Found a bunch of extra carrots today so with some green beans and onions.
I’m glad you shared this. I’m a new Gardner and hopeful canner but, I haven’t seen this before. Thank you so much for sharing! You rock sister! 💪🏽🌼
I feel like this is silly to ask, but when you do the cherry tomatoes do your halve them or leave them whole?
When i do quick pickles i do a sweet/spicy brine, i use cider vinegar, water, salt, honey, cilantro, peppercorns, fresh jalapeños, ginger, and garlic.. Brussels sprouts and carrots are the best in it!
That sounds amazing. I usually half because they get permeated with flavor easier
Brussels sprouts! In a pickle! What has the world come to. I'm definitely adding this to the list to try. :)
Brianna Tuttle sounds yummy😋
@@marilynryan7822 I second that! I didn't grow any but I may go buy some just to try this.
@@GamesintheAttic All the brassicas pickle pretty well. Not sure I'd quick pickle cabbage but sauerkraut and kimchee are both fermented pickles made with cabbage, at least partially. I like quick pickling cauliflower.
I'm not sure there is any vegetable, or fruit, that cannot be pickled. Watermelon rinds make amazing pickles. If you have bad flashbacks to those awful neon red pickled beets from school you should give pickling your own a try. They are very good, I don't make them very often as roasted beets are still better IMO.
Doing this tomorrow with the wee one excited thanks for showing here❤
Like others said, I'm sure I could have googled it and found out about pickling, but would never have thought about it until I wanted to actually make Pickles. Didn't even consider other things could be pickled! It maybe simple to do, but for people like me, just getting into homesteading coming from city life most of my life, I would have never even considered it. Thanks for sharing!
I have never done quick frig pickles but I am going to try it this year. I can't wait.
Just the video I was looking for... at a very early learning stage of food preservation..
getting my head space right is the hardest part! 🤓
The idea that the word "pickle" does not automatically imply cucumber slices was completely out of my frame of reference. So may ideas now. I may need a bigger garden.
Debbie Denny cauliflower is amazing pickled too
Cauliflower, beans and onions are now on my list of things to try. Thanks for the idea!
Your videos are such a gift. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
OMG here it is july 2021 and I saw this at the perfect time as my cucumbers are slow to ripen but to many to eat at once. Thank you Jess and much luck on your move. God bless you and your family.
As silly easy as this recipe may seems I’m so grateful you made it! This is the first pickle I’m trying because I don’t have the equipment I need to hot water bath my pickles but I still really need to do something with my harvest so far. So this is officially my first pickling experience for my first garden! Thank you!
I like the pickled carrots idea.
Think I'll try that also .
Greatest kitchen ever!!good job Mia !like the color and backsplash board seen the video prier to this one .❤️🙏👨🏼🌾
Thank you for sharing. Very timely as so many things are just exploding in the garden. I thoroughly enjoy all of your posts. Thanks from Ontario, Canada.
Been looking forward to seeing this, since you mentioned it yesterday. Now, I am looking forward to trying them. Thank you for sharing this, and I look forward to seeing more videos about food preservation. Love and light!
I've been really looking forward to more videos of how you preserve and provess your harvests. THANK YOU!! Please keep them coming 😄
Just picked some beets and a surprise radish last night and didn't know what to do with them so I'm very grateful for the timing of this video. I don't comment often but I regularly watch your show (I also have a "got it when I turned 18 tramp stamp"). Love all that you do. Keep up the great work. Kitchen and all the gardens look amazing.
I am so grateful for this. I agree with Diane that easy is just fine. I just made this recipe with veggies out of MY garden (yay) and some other items I had from the store in excess. I just made them yesterday but so far I absolutely love them. thank you so much!!!
I am SO GLAD you made this video even though it felt a little silky to you. I learn best when I watch someone else do something, listen to their explanation, & take notes. I am so excited to try this & the veggies you did yesterday! 😁👏🏻💗
I really appreciate this. I’ve never seen this done, so it is super helpful! Thank you.
Thanks Ms Jess for another great informational video! I have been trying to figure out if I could do a quick pickles recipe for Dilly beans. Everyone was telling me pressure canning or fermenting but I'm not quite ready for all that trying to start slow lol . So thanks for confirming it can be done papa will be so happy when my green beans finally come in 😁
Never pickled before, bit you made this seem so easy, I gave it a try. Thanks, Jess💕
I love doing pickled onions, beets, carrots and of course cucumbers and plan on trying other things when I get home.Thank you for sharing Jess, God bless you and yours.
Thank you so much for sharing how to make these! I don't have anyone in my family that cans/pickles/preserves foods to learn from, so I'm very thankful for your videos! I can't wait to try this with our cucumbers once they start producing! 💖
I love this recipe and so does everyone I share with at work "best homemade pickle ever"
Thank you!! Seriously... almost every time I an struggling with something you make a video on it. You are awesome!!
How cool! I have that same jacket. Thank you for the recipe!
Thank you so much. I know it is probably a simple skill but I was actually looking for how to do that. And you told me so now I can try it. I'm so excited.
Love these canning and picking videos you are doing Jess! As a matter of fact all of your cooking and kitchen videos! Keep em coming girl! 👍🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing recipes with us it helps a lot!!
Your channel inspired me to talk to my 94 year old grandfather about what's food they grew and ate on their farm outside of Witchita Falls, Texas. He said his mom didn't really can anything. The only thing she would can was peaches for pies. And he said she didnt really can them with a vaccum. He also said that they ate a lot of rye bread and what my mom and I think was homemade yogurt. They didn't grown grains or potatoes for consumption, but would grow all of their own vegetables. My great great great grandfather owned a grocery store and occassionally would get in oranges and give one to my grandfather, which was his favorite. It's crazy knowing her grew up without electricity or running water.
I am absolutely loving these preserving and in the kitchen videos!
We pickled radish pods! My kids loved them! Going to use this for anything else I want to try to pickle ;)
I will try this with the next bunch of cucumbers.
Thanks Jess!
Was just searching for ideas on what to do with almost the same exact veggies. Thanks so much!
When I started I didn’t realize their was a difference between canning and “quick pickles” and made multiple batches of jalapeños and just put them in the fridge as fridge “pickles” and ate them for at least a year and never got sick lol. Whoops 🤷🏼♀️ Haha
Jessica Dennison did you leave the seeds and were they really hot? I have a bunch of jalapeños I need to do something with.
I've been adding to a huge jar of fridge pickled peppers for a couple of years and have never had an issue with it getting funky. I just add more peppers when I have them and top off the liquid if I need to. I'm sometimes embarrassed to admit that to people, because it sounds pretty gross, but whatever. As long as you don't stick dirty stuff into the jar, then I think the chances of nastiness happening is pretty slim between the vinegar and refrigeration.
Please don’t say you feel silly by creating this video ... there are people (like myself) that have not gardened before this COVID-19 thing, and videos like these are immensely helpful.
Thank you ❤️
My favorite quick-pickle: pickled okra. SO delicious.
Oh my gosh, yes! Totally forgot about okra! Don't have a garden but will search for the freshest okra I can find, throw in some hot peppers to liven it up! Only one brand of picked okra at my local stores....super tasty, but at almost $4 for about 12-15 small ones is just too much. Lol
Thank you for this video! I just have one banana peppers plant that gave me like 6-7 peppers and I want to pickled them. 😬
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge 😁👍
In Australia the main thing I pickle and my first thing I attempted to pickle is beetroots, it’s a favourite. Very similar to the way you just did them then, we cook them until you can push a fork through and peel the skins, slice them, use a brine and pour over then I store in the fridge and they last ages. Thanks Jess for all your advice, can’t wait to try pickling cucumbers and carrots 🥕this year.
Would love if you did a video talking about what these things- like pickled carrots- taste like!?!
Thank you for sharing. I enjoy learning how to persevere food from you, along with everything else you do. Your awesome! 😄
Im inspired! thankyou.I just did pickled cauliflower with dill, onions & chilli.
Yes, please show more easy beginner skills, especially preserving methods. Try to learn from ground zero experience. This is massively helpful for me & my husband. We did refigerator cucumber & dilly beans tonight! Please keep these most helpful & simple recipes coming! We beginners need thenm...lol
This is great! I started my first vegetable garden this year. I started small and this is a great first step for someone looking to preserve food. PS. The kitchen looks great!
Thank you for recording this video for us! ♡
Thanks Jess wonderful information
just came across your channel and am binging it!!! love this video, you were the first to show me I could quick pickle and feel motivated to do some with all the cherry tomatoes I have busting out of my garden!!!
Thank you for sharing dear...definitely not a silly video. Very informative
This will be my first year Pickling so this was a perfect video for me! Exactly what I needed thank you.
All the pickled stuff looks great.
Ahhh such an easy recipe! Also, I got my rise & shine roots & refuge shirt in the mail today! I was super excited!!! It is so cute!
I have never pickled anything! But you have given me the inspiration to try it.
I looove putting garlic in mine!
I just made my first batch of quick fridge pickles the other day and ate most of the one pint jar by the time I went to bed! 😆 SO YUM!!!! 😋
I' m glad you didn't think this was too silly to post! I've been waiting for this video since you mentioned it in an earlier video. Thank you for the great tips. I'm about to pickle some of my home grown cucumbers for the first time...😁
I made my first pint jar last weekend with onesie twosies from my small garden using just what I had and the tips from your napolito video and black gumbos video. Huge hit,, can’t wait to make more, I used cucumbers, onions, bell peppers and carrots. Surprisingly my husbands favorite were the red bell pepper slices. Now if I can just repeat the recipe 😆. Thanks for all you do to encourage us beginners
Im so excited for these kinds of videos!!! Cannot wait to learn different ways to use my harvests
you are seriously reading my mind lately.... thank you so much for this video....
Simple is good🙏❤️👨🌾
I love making quick pickled jalapeño slices, my family will eat a quart a week. I have a local farmers market that is open during the week that features locally grown vegetables. Quick pickles are a favorite too, I add fresh dill, garlic, peppercorns, pinch of red pepper flakes,
and some whole mustard seeds to mine.
I just read that refrigerator pickles can last two months, so you are correct, they do last long!Thanks for the recipe.
Just the type of video I needed!! I have a few cucumbers and peppers ready to harvest and I’ve never pickled anything before so thanks for the video Jess! ❤️
Great video and I am synthesizing the info from your canning video with this and thinking that this is great also to do with store bought it farm stand veggies even if you don't have your own garden.
Pickled turnips are a staple in my fridge. I throw in some pieces of beet to give it a fantastic magenta color that's just fun on the plate. They taste really good with hummus, gyros (a great way to use surplus cukes), lamb meatballs, just about anything Mediterranean. And it's so simple to throw together. The hardest part is waiting the 5 days for it to be ready. They are definitely better served cold, so on day 5 before serving, stick them in the fridge. No canning processing required, but I don't think it's quite the same as a "quick pickle" or refrigerator pickles.
I'm glad you made this video I'm still nervous about canning so I think this still be a good start
Thank you for such a great video! Great info!👍😄♥️
This is so timely!! I'm watching my cucumber plants bloom and I know in just a bit I'm going to be drowning in cukes! I've only fermented them before, but want to try some quick ones this year for fun!
I loved this video. Thank you 😊
