I've seen my mom can like this before. Although it's not an approved method of canning, this how a lot did it back in the Golden ages. They survived it, and I can tell you my granny had a iron stomach. She could eat left over food for a month or more and never get sick. Lord I don't know how she done it, she lived to be 88 and we lost her tragically in a car wreck in April this year.
This is how I have always put my okra up for frying. It taste fresh out of the garden. But make sure to have grease hot, strain and rinse vinegar solution off, batter and fry. Perfect!!!!
I've been doing mine this way for close to 30 years except I do a hot water bath... I use to freeze mine and I had an older lady show me how to can it like this and it is so good. Just open up a jar and rinse and fry.... Taste just like you picked it fresh from the garden.
Ive never heard of turning your canning jar upside to help seal them. Of course, theres more to canning that I dont know than there is that I do know lol. Thanks for sharing another canning video especially for Okra that can be used for frying later, its the only way I eat them. God bless you both, Shirley.
Thanks Tammy. By the way girl, I heard the Old Alabama Gardner had some kind of health issue that sounded sorta serious, so please be praying for him if y’all would.❤️
I freeze mine also on a cookie sheet some breaded some not for soups Then use a food saver machine in dinner portions so it last longer .So I guess if you don't like it canned use it for soups.
Hello to the Both of You, hope you are Enjoying your Day. I am so glad your doing this, I just got some Okra at the Famers market yesterday. Thanks, so much.
why do some of the okra go into the paper towel- are those the bad ends ? Can you water bath it to let em seal better for a couple min ?ps how did the okra turn out ?
Most people will throw out the tails and caps. Personally, I eat the caps if they aren't too big or tough, so I put them in with what I'm frying. There's nothing wrong with the tails, but I don't use them because the batter doesn't stick to them too well. It's all preference. I do put the tails I trim off into a freezer bag to put into gumbo or okra and tomatoes. There's no sense in wasting them.
Sure didn’t know you could can okra for frying! I heard recently from Appalachian Homestead with Patera that Old Alabama Gardner is having serious health problems. Please pray for him, Tammy. Thank you so much 😊
These are great uploads. So much of this knowledge has been lost due to convenience (and the schools dropping Home Ec.) Personally I'm not a fan of okra; although, when I cook Louisiana style dishes, I'll use it. Still, I certainly appreciate the education. Thank you Tammy and Chris. God bless y'all. :) PS, "chow-chow" (green tomato relish) is the last time I pickled. I had a bumper crop of green tomatoes. I guess that corner didn't get enough sunshine. That reminds me of "home" (East coast Canada).
I just bought big, beautiful green tomatoes, tomatoes and peaches. I'd love to make chow chow. I want to make tomato preserves, too. It's delish on hot buttered cornbread. I'm making cobbler with the peaches.
Hello from Lexington, North Carolina!❤ This looks so easy. I don't think I'd want the prickly ends. I don't fry foods but occasionally order out in a restaurant. I love fried squash and okra! Have you done them in the air Fryer? Love you!❤
No okra here this year...no seeds at garden center or feed store...I guess I'll try mail order and overnight them to me here in Texas...it's not too late yet🤷♀️
@@anitaford6559 will those pods that get too big and tough work or should I keep the smaller and younger pods?? The last 2 years we have had a seed shortage at the individual garden centers and feed stores...at the start of growing season the big box stores sells packets of seeds but I prefer to get them in bulk and I get waaaaay more seeds for the $$$👍🏻
Thanks Tammy! Enjoyed very much. I have a question and hope you can get back to me. I have canned several pints now just like this. First question is that I never heard them pop. But they did seal. I bought these lids on Amazon because couldn't find any around. Also.... I used pickling salt and they seam to be cloudy. Have any suggestions on what causes this? The jars were sterile and hot. Thanks Tammy hope you can help. God Bless.
Tammy, do you get to pick the commercials on your videos or does TH-cam choose? I found your videos a few weeks ago and have enjoyed binge watching. I am homebound disabled and believing the Lord for healing from breast cancer.
You are looking good lady .. I have received my new medicine for Crohn’s I am now able to eat .. I am already using some of your recipe’s … so good I knew one day I would be able to try some recipes. . I love your channel . Can’t wait to see what you do next … have a blessed week and hello to your sister that helps you with your page . Blessings from Asheboro NC
8 tablespoons would be 1/2 cup. Would be easier than counting out 8 tablespoons.
Just a question do you have to put salt to help preserve or can you leave it out? I help can when I was younger but have forgotten it all lol 😂
I am not totally sure
I've seen my mom can like this before. Although it's not an approved method of canning, this how a lot did it back in the Golden ages. They survived it, and I can tell you my granny had a iron stomach. She could eat left over food for a month or more and never get sick. Lord I don't know how she done it, she lived to be 88 and we lost her tragically in a car wreck in April this year.

4 TBSP = 1/4 cup 8 TBSP = 1/2 cup. So you used 1/2 cup of vinegar.
Have you checked the pH of the liquid? I think it has to be below 4.5 to be safe.

Could you tell me what you do when opening the jar . How do you cook the okra. After you drain it how do you make it up to fry
I salt and pepper and coat with self rising flour and fry it
@@CollardValleyCooks thank you. I also canned 12 jars today and now I’m canning pickled okra
Thanks Tammy. By the way girl, I heard the Old Alabama Gardner had some kind of health issue that sounded sorta serious, so please be praying for him if y’all would.❤️
I think he passed away.
@@AwGusTeen yes he did.
RIP. I hope he's with the Lord now.
This is the best. My favorite food in the world in fried okra!!!!
Love it. This is a great to also build your confidence in canning. Believe it or not, the toughest thing to find locally are the Ball Jars and lids.
Absolutely!
I freeze mine also on a cookie sheet some breaded some not for soups Then use a food saver machine in dinner portions so it last longer .So I guess if you don't like it canned use it for soups.
I am going to try this I hope it works for me IThis is my first time canning Thanks for always sharing with us Tammy
You can do it!
Hello to the Both of You, hope you are Enjoying your Day. I am so glad your doing this, I just got some Okra at the Famers market yesterday. Thanks, so much.
why do some of the okra go into the paper towel- are those the bad ends ? Can you water bath it to let em seal better for a couple min ?ps how did the okra turn out ?
I threw out the ends
The water bath will work
thank you ! I've only water bottled pickles and stuff like jam .. @@CollardValleyCooks

I cant believe you dont have to water bath can those.
Actually, they should be pressure canned.
Oh I'm sure glad I don't look down there with you honey. Be so big you'd have to roll me to your house and roll me home or down the hill wherever LOL
Hi Tammy, can I jar it up in quarts? I run out of pints. Canning for my son with 5 children. Hoping it will be safe in quarts?
Yes you can!
I’d love to see how you do your jelly too! I make sand plum jelly. It grows wild here in our area!
Oh how I miss my Grandma's sand plum jelly! It was so good.
Oh WOW Tammy 🤩🤩 I thank you for this video ... I’ve been wanting to put up some okra for the winter .. thank u so much sugar .. love ya 💗
I have been doing his recipe for years, and I would not do it any other way. We even like it better than fresh okra.
Sure didn’t know you could can okra for frying! I heard recently from Appalachian Homestead with Patera that Old Alabama Gardner is having serious health problems. Please pray for him, Tammy. Thank you so much 😊
Hi Tammy. I canned okra and squash this way last year, except I used white vinegar. It works great!!
Thanks. I wondered if it worked. I hope Tammy will do a video so we can see how she does it to the finished product.

Oh Tammy, I would love to see you make some jelly. That is something I believe I could still do.
Yes indeed. Mayhaw !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never shows up in stores here in N. Nev. I've been buying freeze dried since I can't get any to can.

Always save a few pods to dry for next years seeds.

Yes the ones that have gotten to big are the one I let dry for seed

Mine was cloudy as well, they say it is from the salt
@@CollardValleyCooks Thanks so much for getting back. I feel better now.
Have you ever used Chinese okra? It’s a hybrid of the luffa sponge gourd which is harvested while still young and immature. I hear it’s tasty.
I have not
Love ya. I did some jelly or jam and I turned the jars up side down for a few minutes don’t remember how many minutes and then up right and it sealed.
Tammy, do you get to pick the commercials on your videos or does TH-cam choose? I found your videos a few weeks ago and have enjoyed binge watching. I am homebound disabled and believing the Lord for healing from breast cancer.
They pick them
Isn't 8 tablespoons just a half cup?
Sure is

Have you ever heard of an oatmeal pie
The Little Debbie one lol!
I love oatmeal pie, haven't made one in a few years though. If you make them, do you use coconut or not? I've made them both ways.
Use this recipe all the time! Okra stays firm and fries up great!
Do y’all use sterilized jars & lids when you say get your jars ready?
Yes
🕊🥰 I’m gonna try this‼️🥰
The incredible shrinking Tammy! Go Girl!
