@@Cassandra-i6j How nice! I'd love to be your neighbor and anyone that I could cook and can with! Makes me feel close to my mom and grandma who loved the old ways of preserving.
Back in the 70s our home lost power for 5 days. Thank goodness we had a natural gas home. My mother had 2 canners going all day freezer canning and emptying our freezer. She kept me and my 2 sisters busy. Saved all the food. Great memory.
@@DiannaAtherton What a blessing to learn they are still going strong at 90! Probably a lot due to eating from a garden and living a good life without all the additives that are currently in our food. Still chuckle about your canner blowing story! God bless y'all.
Here’s my tip: if you have no power you may also not have easy access to water to heat these up. If you leave a bit more space for water in your jars, you’ll use that water in the pot to heat them up. Then just add a bit of cornstarch or flour and some seasoning to make a creamy sauce.
If you're able to get into a Sams Club, a Costco or some other pallet store, they have a section typically off to the side of the exit doors that are bins of cardboard boxes that the shelf products come in, for people to use and easier transport their bulk items. I like to rifle through there and pick out the cardboard trays to use in my pantry to store my finished jars in and easier transport and store.
WOW! NEVER THOUGHT TO CAN FROZEN VEGGIES. I’ve always canned most of my meats when they get close to freezer burn, but didn’t think of veggies. THANK YOU! I know exactly what you mean when weather situations change you, I live in N Georgia and have lived through ice storms and hurricanes. My husband has always worked in food distribution delivering milk and now bread, 2 huge items bought during bad weather. Because of this we also see how crazy people act in stores when these storms show up. I love canning, but find my hobby of being prepared comes in handy during these times and keeps me out of the stores during crazy times. 😅
@@EvaCooper-tu4mh I absolutely agree! The reason I want to be prepared is I've lived through some storms and tornados and I don't want to be out running around stores during the rush to get supplies. Thank you for your comments.
Thank you so much for the lesson on the weight! I always struggled because I just used the one that came with the canner. Ordering a10 lb right now. I have been canning many years, just shows old dogs can always learn new tricks!!!❤😂
Brings back memories when i was a child helping my mom can. I enjoyed it very much. Being with my mom preserving our food. I always loved seeing all the canned food on the shelves. Thank you for helping me remembering those memories and for the knowledge.
I just love this! As a novice, this would be an excellent way for me to practice without fear of ruining something I worked hard to grow or spent a lot of money on to purchase! I just love you to death, sis!
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan I inherited my sweet mother-in-law's massive 21 qt 1970 Presto canner 10 years ago and it's been in my attic ever since. Now that I'm retired, I took it down, replaced the gasket, gauge and relief valve and will be taking it to the extension office to be tested. My regulator weight appears to be a 15 pound weight though...I didn't realize there was a difference till watching your video! I guess I need to order a 10 pound weight.
I bought a lot of frozen veggies and I cut up a couple onions and chopped potatoes and tomatoes,and cooked all for about 20 minutes and then I pressure cooked them in quart jars,
I have been concerned about losing power so I have been using up my frozen vegetables also (pressure canning). I also like to get a big chunk of meat, doesn't matter as long as it is cheap, and adding frozen vegetables to about 1/3 jar of meat...Instant meal. You explain things well. Good video!
I absolutely agree. I'm working towards more canned on my pantry shelves and less frozen for the same reason and anytime it's a full meal, that's an added bonus!
7/30/24 Since the global tech disruption hit I started canning everything possible from my freezer! There were areas in my city that were affected by the tech disruption AND storm damage - all at the same time!
@@dancinginabundance I understand. Since I had just about emptied my freezers with canning, they are full again. Now my tomatoes are starting to come in, not enough yet to can but I put them in the freezer until I have enough to process. I guess I will be starting over with emptying out my freezers. It is a lot of work but it is better than being hungry and saying "if I had only canned all my food......". Good luck to you.
@AtHomewithMrsJoan I am new to Canning. Haven't canned my 1st jar as of yet but have been Blessed by someone the items I will need to get started WB canning. I have a question about canning frozen veggies. When I cook can or frozen frozen corn or peas, I always add a Tablespoon of sugar. Can I add that when I'm canning too? Or do I need to wait until I'm ready to cook them.
Very good teaching video. You gave great instructions that any new canner could follow . I have been canning for 39 years and I think you did a great job. God Bless.

I have been dehydrating frozen veggies that I can grab at a cheap price, I bought gallon jars and filled one up for my mom to have assortment for her soups she is 89 and prefers to eat soups. I also gave one gallon to my grand daughter . Now I am doing 3 jars for my home, I can up meat and veggies. Thank you for this vid waste not want not 😊
PERFECT, i am obsessed with frozen veggies and i need room in my freezer!!!!! Frozen veggies are exactly like fresh but having so many bags in my freezer can get bulky so If I can them which will extend them I'm all for it! I just will not use anything but frozen veggies...except now a "can" of them will be fine.
I clicked on your video so fast when my brain connected the idea of shelf stable foods in case the freezer goes out. We have been saving up for a generator but you never know when the power will go out or something happens. Thankful for finding your channel ma'am!
Thanks for watching. I'm always blessed to meet new people on here who want to have shelf stable foods that require no refrigeration or freezers. It's the way of our ancestors.

Thank you, Mrs Joan, for teaching the correct and safe way to can vegetables. Some people erroneously encourage others to waterbath low acid foods. It is extremely difficult to kill the botulism spores in low acid foods with waterbath boiling. Waterbath temperature is 212°F, and it takes 240-250°F to kill botulism spores, which is why pressure canning is recommended for low acid foods.

The USDA makes these recommendations based on research and safety. Again, I appreciate that you are current with your information. I will not take the chance of poisoning my family with botulism by following outdated practices. It only takes one spore...
Thank you for posting the information and reminding us how much hotter the pressure canners get in order to kill boutilism. I try my best to take the safest route.
I'm just learning about canning, and I'm 77. Growing up we had a commercial freezer so other than pickles and jam Mom didn't can. (plus we weren't allowed to be in the kitchen when she was doing such things cause we got in her way. Then my husband and I were in the Army and they didn't allow us to move jars (cause of breakage). So here I sit all alone and I care about being ready for bad winters in WV and food shortages and such. Thank you for the lesson. I was kind of afraid of pressure canning - but thanks to you I don't think I will be.
Oh my! Thanks for letting me know this helped you have the courage to begin canning. You can start at any age. It's great knowing what is in your food. Good luck!
@@janiefox3458 When you pack to move you cushion to glass, so i don't understand why they didn't let you move jars. Have you seen the cost of pectin?! I'd swear they have 1/2 less in them too. So online I looked for larger size pectin by the pound and organic flours. Much better prices!
@@debbabbit9283 I have no idea who came up with the rules and regulations of military moves. After 20+ moves our last one when hubby retired we did a DITY move (DO IT YOURSELF) from San Antonio TX to the Eastern Panhandle of WV. I had come ahead to accept a job at the VA so my husband did the packing - - I thank God I wasn't around for that one.
I like the idea of adding more water so you can cook with it when you open the jar. One thing I learned growing up was to use the freezer as a temporary holding place until whatever we had in there could be canned, not for long term storage. It keeps the rotation going and freezer burn to a minimum.
I was just thinking about this this morning, and here you are on my feed. I needed to see this again. Thank you. I had to toss food from my freezer because it freeze-burned and i found it while my freezer iced up to overload, so I have to defrost. I found food 3 yrs old. it breaks my heart. I didn't know how to can or have a canner then. Thank God i have one now. It's the small presto 16qt but at least i have that. This will save a lot of money, as those frozen veges can get too expensive to lose.
I just found your channel! Last year in July, we had a terrible storm where I live in Springfield, Illinois. Called a derecho. Scariest storm I've ever been thru and I've lived here all my life. ( I'm 57) our town was shut down for over a week. The next week I bought my first pressure canner. I had water bath canned for years, but, I was scared of pressure canning. Not any more. I 100% agree with everything you just showed and said. You never know when you might lose power. That storm shocked us just like the snow storm you got shocked you. And it changed us all I believe. I subscribed ❤
FYI - I figured out that pint jars have different circumferences. Different ones I measured were 1/4 inch different around which meant I got more of the "ever so slightly" smaller ones into my canner. I noticed that while watching someone can pints in my same canner, he got more in his. That's when I measured the 2 brands I have.
Hey Miss Joan, I'm a new subscriber. I have been looking for someone to upload this type of video! There are so many packages of veggies from our garden just crowding up the deep freeze. And sometimes a package will be overlooked or go missing in the corners or the back known as the deep abyss, and it will be freezer burned when I finally dig it up! This way I can harvest, freeze, and can when i have the time and opportunity. I like to think of my freezer being a temporary holding place, like first base. Then the runner needs to advance to second when he can, and on to third and home plate! I see home plate like my dinner plate, the final destination 😋 I learned early that to harvest, wash, chop, blanche, cook down, and either freeze or can, 'CAN' NOT be done in one day! Especially if I have several veggies or fruits coming off on the same day. Yikes! Blessed beyond my daily capabilities 😇 Start calling family, friends, and neighbors begging them to come and get some of these yellow crook necks, zucchini, okra, ... Garden to freezer in a few hours is the way!
I totally understand as summer garden season is super busy. You sound like such an experienced gardener that I'm sure you know to research processing times of everything you can. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I’m glad I found your channel. I’ve been telling my husband I wanted to start canning but didn’t know where to start or the process. I feel watching 3 of your videos I have learned enough to finally start. Thank You!!!
I have watched a lot of tutorials for canning over the last 5 years this is a very good tutorial she covers a good amount of information and also the idea of emptying your freezer is good incentive. ❤
Thank you. If electricity goes out I've got to hurry to save my food. Food canned on my shelves stays ready to eat no matter if we have electricity or not!
A great video! Just the information I was looking for. Have started canning for the same reason, get good food out of the freezer. We were without electricity for three weeks after hurricane Rita and had to cook everything in our freezers to keep from going to waste. Now we want to can everything. Thanks, You are GREAT.
You and I pressure can’t exactly the same. You follow the exact same guides that I do. I enjoyed your video. Please do more and share what else you can. One thing that I love to pressure can is chicken chili
I sure do wish that someone had explained the pressure canning process to me as thoroughly and simply as you are doing SO many years ago when I first began! 😏 I just found your channel, and subscribed immediately- will definitely share your channel with my daughters.. I love your patient and joyful teaching technique.🥰
I have pulled meat out of my freezers and canned it. But I must say that it never occurred to me to can frozen vegetables. I may give it a shot. Thanks for the video.
I can but i dehydrate frozen veggies n fruits In half gallon jars with oxygen absorbers or vac seal. I think i might try canning some just in case later shtf need the water to cook with. Its also why i keep commercial canned veggies and beans in case i need the juice to cook with. I pressure can beans too.
I was blessed to find a national 1935 preasure cooker. I inherited my brothers double canner the size you are using! I was so happy! I have always used a mirror 4 QT preasure cooker! I loved listening to you detailed and informative video! Easy to listen to. ( not boring) I am going to save rhis video, to refer to later. Frozen vegetables will be on sale soon! They always go on sale in the summer to sell the old stock! HOW WOULD YOU DO POTATOES? OR Not?
Wondering find on the canner! I have a Playlist on several canning, but here is the potato one. Glad to make another canning friend! th-cam.com/video/Xt1qSSB7NcU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GClhHTaAyZ5GCztM
I love it that I learned about the possibility of pressure canning frozen vegetables in this video. But my quandary is: Why not just buy already canned veggies? They are already self stable for years. The work is done for a great price! We really need to guard our freezer space. My go to veggie is frozen, fresh with some. I live alone. When I buy 24 cans of cubed beets in season for under $1, I sing Hallelujah. I think it’s our buying and using practices that we need to identify and recognize. Personally, I would not like to pressure can my frozen veggies that I overstocked on. Seems like a waste of time unless they are truly better pressure canned after frozen. But, in a pinch, I would pressure can everything I could in my freezer with available gas on my stove. So, thank you. I know it’s possible now. Gonna get me a canner like yours!! I’ve been using the gifted old school one too long. Loved it the way you told other pressure canning folks that your regulator showed the dial’s accuracy❤
@@priscillawakefield8439 I have to clean out my freezer to make room sometimes. The vegetables were bought on extreme markdown. Frozen vegetables are frozen at peak freshness and are good candidate for canning. Also I manage the amount of salt or no salt in my food. I too have bought cans of all I did, but the home canned taste better and not taste like the can. Thanks for your very good comments.
I am so glad I ran across this today. I am so concerned about losing power and ruining all the contents! I will be working on my veggies for sure! Thank you!
You did an excellent job explaining how the pressure canner operates! You answered questions I have had for the past year! Thank you! I subscribed to your channel today!
Thank you for that tip on using a different weight thingy! I have a canner just like that and always watching the gauge. This was my first canner with the gauge. I had, what I call, a fail safe canner and as long as I could hear the weight rocking, I knew it was maintaining 10 lb. pressure. With this, I'm constantly watching. Lol I'd never thought about canning frozen veggies, but will be now.
Hey Mrs. Joan, Thank you so much for being so explicit with your canning instructions. I have learned a lot. I have a question: how long do you pressure cook fresh corn from the garden on 10lbs of pressure? Thanks!
I'm so glad see this. A friend gave me a lot of fresh carrots, and i don't have time to can them just yet. But, before they get too old, I'll blanch them and freeze them. Then, when i have more time, and the weather is much, much cooler, i will pressure can them. Trust me, summertime in Texas is NOT the time to do your canning 😅
I’ve only been canning a couple years so I love how you tell a story almost. I am from the south so our accents are similar - Tennessee / North Carolina. I subscribed and will go back to your other videos also. ☺️
Thank you Miss Joan for the tutorial! I haven’t canned in years and this was a nice refresher! ❤ truth be told, I never even thought about canning frozen vegetables!
@@sparkleon8563 I haven't had any experience in waterbath canning these particular vegetables. I think they require pressure. But some people waterbath everything, but much longer processing times. Let me know what you learn in your search.
This is a great video and you are so happy, a joy to watch. I never thought of canning frozen veggies. I am a novice to canning and I don’t particularly like the taste of commercially canned vegetables so I will definitely give this a try (as soon as I get a pressure canner). 😀
You speak my language! I am from AL as well. 😁 I am so glad I came across your video. I didn't know you could buy different weights to control the pressure. I have been so frustrated for years because I have to keep watch on my pressure cooker to keep it at 10 lbs. I also need a rack so that I can have 2 levels of jars.
I've been brushing up on my canning skills. This video helped me remember some of the steps I used in past years but needed to remember! Thank you for your great video. I liked the tip about canning frozen vegetables !
If you buy a canner a book will come with it. I still watched videos for months before I canned. It’s been 3 years now and I have canned a lot - whenever I find a good sale 😉. It has taken a lot of worry away from me about power outages etc. And I really enjoy it. Good luck
I'm emptying a freezer to defrost it and canned up a 5lb bag of green beans the other day. Also did some pork butt ans chicken breast. Next week I'm canning a brisket and I'll be almost done.
Such a great video 😂 I'm just learning how to pressure can and you made it look so easy...I was scared to death😂 thank you again for calming my nerves. 💕 Carolynn from Los Angeles, Ca.
How well I remember 93 and 2011! Blizzard of 93 totally got me to thinking my household should be better prepared for sudden total life change such as no electricity, heat, etc. In 93 we were in a total electric house when the blizzard hit and we survived in one room with a kerosene heater. To this day my daughter won't eat pork and beans out of a can because we ate so much of it during the blizzard!

Sometimes freezers just get too crowded. In an apartment you just need to be able to clear it out for fresh use. In times of prolonged power outage a crowded freezer is a terrible waste. Making stews to can will be my next project.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan Mom n I had chest freezers, but being alone I couldn't keep one in an apartment. I forgot how we'd bulk buy and harvest to can n freeze in July- Sept. and can from the freezer in fall n winter.

So here I sit all alone and I care about being ready for bad winters in WV and food shortages and such. Thank you for the lesson. I was kind of afraid of pressure canning - but thanks to you I don't think I will be.
Oh my! Thanks for letting me know this helped you have the courage to begin canning. You can start at any age. It's great knowing what is in your food. Good luck!

When you pack to move you cushion to glass, so i don't understand why they didn't let you move jars.
Have you seen the cost of pectin?! I'd swear they have 1/2 less in them too. So online I looked for larger size pectin by the pound and organic flours. Much better prices!
@@debbabbit9283 I have no idea who came up with the rules and regulations of military moves. After 20+ moves our last one when hubby retired we did a DITY move (DO IT YOURSELF) from San Antonio TX to the Eastern Panhandle of WV. I had come ahead to accept a job at the VA so my husband did the packing - - I thank God I wasn't around for that one.
@@janiefox3458
Are you out now? Retired?
@@debbabbit9283 yes - I retired from nursing shortly after my husband died.
I like the idea of adding more water so you can cook with it when you open the jar. One thing I learned growing up was to use the freezer as a temporary holding place until whatever we had in there could be canned, not for long term storage. It keeps the rotation going and freezer burn to a minimum.
You are 100 percent correct! A temporary holding place! 🥰
I was just thinking about this this morning, and here you are on my feed. I needed to see this again. Thank you. I had to toss food from my freezer because it freeze-burned and i found it while my freezer iced up to overload, so I have to defrost. I found food 3 yrs old. it breaks my heart. I didn't know how to can or have a canner then. Thank God i have one now. It's the small presto 16qt but at least i have that. This will save a lot of money, as those frozen veges can get too expensive to lose.
You are so right. I hate to see food thrown out too.
I just found your channel! Last year in July, we had a terrible storm where I live in Springfield, Illinois. Called a derecho. Scariest storm I've ever been thru and I've lived here all my life. ( I'm 57) our town was shut down for over a week. The next week I bought my first pressure canner. I had water bath canned for years, but, I was scared of pressure canning. Not any more. I 100% agree with everything you just showed and said. You never know when you might lose power. That storm shocked us just like the snow storm you got shocked you. And it changed us all I believe. I subscribed ❤
When you live through something like that it changes you forever. Thanks for subscribing.
I just bought me a pressure canner, so far I love it. 2:34
@@denisefoster9497 Yay! It's going to get even better!
Just found your channel. You are so much fun to listen to. I agree with all of the comments. Your directions were so thorough.
Thank you! I try to give clear instructions. Thanks for watching!
FYI - I figured out that pint jars have different circumferences. Different ones I measured were 1/4 inch different around which meant I got more of the "ever so slightly" smaller ones into my canner. I noticed that while watching someone can pints in my same canner, he got more in his. That's when I measured the 2 brands I have.
Thanks so much for this info.! Depending on year made, some have a slight square, real suttle. That makes sense. Thanks again!!!
That's a cute saying. Dilly Dally in the kitchen long enough you will be can!
I can't help it. It just flows out all the words I heard my family use growing up!
I am 77 and grew up with that saying lol not " dilly dally"" around lol
I wandered about doing this very thing and was told they’d get mushy. Well I’m going to try them now that I’ve seen your video. Thank you!!!!
We like them! You're welcome!
Hey Miss Joan, I'm a new subscriber. I have been looking for someone to upload this type of video! There are so many packages of veggies from our garden just crowding up the deep freeze. And sometimes a package will be overlooked or go missing in the corners or the back known as the deep abyss, and it will be freezer burned when I finally dig it up! This way I can harvest, freeze, and can when i have the time and opportunity. I like to think of my freezer being a temporary holding place, like first base. Then the runner needs to advance to second when he can, and on to third and home plate! I see home plate like my dinner plate, the final destination 😋 I learned early that to harvest, wash, chop, blanche, cook down, and either freeze or can, 'CAN' NOT be done in one day! Especially if I have several veggies or fruits coming off on the same day. Yikes! Blessed beyond my daily capabilities 😇 Start calling family, friends, and neighbors begging them to come and get some of these yellow crook necks, zucchini, okra, ... Garden to freezer in a few hours is the way!
I totally understand as summer garden season is super busy. You sound like such an experienced gardener that I'm sure you know to research processing times of everything you can. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I’m glad I found your channel. I’ve been telling my husband I wanted to start canning but didn’t know where to start or the process. I feel watching 3 of your videos I have learned enough to finally start. Thank You!!!
Let me know how you do! It'll be great!
I have watched a lot of tutorials for canning over the last 5 years this is a very good tutorial she covers a good amount of information and also the idea of emptying your freezer is good incentive. ❤
Thank you. If electricity goes out I've got to hurry to save my food. Food canned on my shelves stays ready to eat no matter if we have electricity or not!
I love mushrooms and will definitely be making these!! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Joan, for keeping up to date with usda safe practices. It's refreshing 😊
You're welcome!
Thank you for your teaching and sweet words. You have made pressure canning so much less scary for us city people. God bless you.😊💖
I also have a video "Pressure Canning for Beginners" you might enjoy. You can do it! I promise!
Thank you VERY much for being such a GREAT teacher! I feel confident enough now to buy what I need to start canning. GodBless 🥰
I believe you will enjoy canning. I know I certainly do. Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for taking the time to show us how to double check our canner lids! Sometimes I forget to do that!
You are welcome!
A great video! Just the information I was looking for. Have started canning for the same reason, get good food out of the freezer. We were without electricity for three weeks after hurricane Rita and had to cook everything in our freezers to keep from going to waste. Now we want to can everything. Thanks, You are GREAT.
That is why I want more and more on my shelves and less and less in the freezer. When you live through one rough situation it changes you forever!
I have been terrified to can, but you are so good at explaining. Thank you!
@@kevinkaren9252 I made one called "Pressure Canning for Beginners" that might also help. You can do it. I promise!
Hello I enjoyed watching your videos of canning veggies. Thank you. Have a Blessed weekend.
Thank you for such a nice comment.
You and I pressure can’t exactly the same. You follow the exact same guides that I do. I enjoyed your video. Please do more and share what else you can. One thing that I love to pressure can is chicken chili
@@brendacribb7145 Yummy I love chicken chili!
This is a great video, thank you. I am currently trying to empty my freezer and I had no idea I could do this with frozen. Now I do.
@@KC-oo7yk Thank you for watching
I sure do wish that someone had explained the pressure canning process to me as thoroughly and simply as you are doing SO many years ago when I first began! 😏 I just found your channel, and subscribed immediately- will definitely share your channel with my daughters.. I love your patient and joyful teaching technique.🥰
@@julimartin3312 How nice of you to tell me that. I enjoy helping others learn to love canning!
I have pulled meat out of my freezers and canned it. But I must say that it never occurred to me to can frozen vegetables. I may give it a shot. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome!
I can but i dehydrate frozen veggies n fruits In half gallon jars with oxygen absorbers or vac seal. I think i might try canning some just in case later shtf need the water to cook with. Its also why i keep commercial canned veggies and beans in case i need the juice to cook with. I pressure can beans too.
You made some good points. Thank you!
I was blessed to find a national 1935 preasure cooker. I inherited my brothers double canner the size you are using! I was so happy! I have always used a mirror 4 QT preasure cooker!
I loved listening to you detailed and informative video! Easy to listen to. ( not boring) I am going to save rhis video, to refer to later.
Frozen vegetables will be on sale soon! They always go on sale in the summer to sell the old stock!
HOW WOULD YOU DO POTATOES? OR Not?
Wondering find on the canner! I have a Playlist on several canning, but here is the potato one. Glad to make another canning friend!
th-cam.com/video/Xt1qSSB7NcU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GClhHTaAyZ5GCztM
Wonderful, Not wondering! Lol
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan thanks I will look at it.
Very informative. Thanks for the video. I've been canning for 3 years. Now I can make room in my freezers.
Yes! That's what I needed to do too!
And also, if you have a power outage, you don't have to worry about food spoilage. I try hard to can, and pray harder when I can't. 😂
I love it that I learned about the possibility of pressure canning frozen vegetables in this video.
But my quandary is:
Why not just buy already canned veggies? They are already self stable for years. The work is done for a great price!
We really need to guard our freezer space.
My go to veggie is frozen, fresh with some.
I live alone.
When I buy 24 cans of cubed beets in season for under $1, I sing Hallelujah.
I think it’s our buying and using practices that we need to identify and recognize.
Personally, I would not like to pressure can my frozen veggies that I overstocked on. Seems like a waste of time unless they are truly better pressure canned after frozen.
But, in a pinch, I would pressure can everything I could in my freezer with available gas on my stove.
So, thank you. I know it’s possible now.
Gonna get me a canner like yours!!
I’ve been using the gifted old school one too long.
Loved it the way you told other pressure canning folks that your regulator showed the dial’s accuracy❤
@@priscillawakefield8439 I have to clean out my freezer to make room sometimes. The vegetables were bought on extreme markdown. Frozen vegetables are frozen at peak freshness and are good candidate for canning. Also I manage the amount of salt or no salt in my food. I too have bought cans of all I did, but the home canned taste better and not taste like the can. Thanks for your very good comments.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan well that was my ask. Home canned vs production canned? Wha’s better.
You say home. I tend to agree til i try it in that pinch.
@@priscillawakefield8439 Yes and thank you for watching.
I am so glad I ran across this today. I am so concerned about losing power and ruining all the contents! I will be working on my veggies for sure! Thank you!
You're welcome! I have the same concerns.
You did an excellent job explaining how the pressure canner operates! You answered questions I have had for the past year! Thank you! I subscribed to your channel today!
Thank you! What nice things to say! I'm so glad it helped you.
Thank you for that tip on using a different weight thingy! I have a canner just like that and always watching the gauge. This was my first canner with the gauge. I had, what I call, a fail safe canner and as long as I could hear the weight rocking, I knew it was maintaining 10 lb. pressure. With this, I'm constantly watching. Lol I'd never thought about canning frozen veggies, but will be now.
@@1456Sassy The 10 pound weight is a game charger for me. Your comments will help others. Thanks for your input.
Hey Mrs. Joan,
Thank you so much for being so explicit with your canning instructions. I have learned a lot.
I have a question: how long do you pressure cook fresh corn from the garden on 10lbs of pressure? Thanks!
I do 55 minutes pints 85 quarts.
But I don't like quarts. Turns the corn too brown. I just do pints 55.
Thanks for the information
I'm so glad see this. A friend gave me a lot of fresh carrots, and i don't have time to can them just yet. But, before they get too old, I'll blanch them and freeze them. Then, when i have more time, and the weather is much, much cooler, i will pressure can them. Trust me, summertime in Texas is NOT the time to do your canning 😅
I'll bet! It's hot here too!
That's good information about the processing time for us newbies
I try to include all the info possible. I love helping new canners!
New subscriber here! Thank you for sharing your vegetable canning video. 👍🏻
Your welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for this video. I’ve always been scared of pressure canning, but all the information you gave makes me think I can probably do it.
Look up my "Pressure Canning for Beginners video." You will do great!
I’ve only been canning a couple years so I love how you tell a story almost. I am from the south so our accents are similar - Tennessee / North Carolina. I subscribed and will go back to your other videos also. ☺️
My accent gives me away wherever I go! I love meeting fellow canners on here! Thank you for subscribing!
Thank you ! Just came across your channel. Didn’t know you can do this and I pressure can and water bath.
I love pressure canning and water bath too! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your joyful, informative video. You really highlight how simple canning is, while informing about safety. Love it!
Thank you. My hope is to give others the courage to give it a try!
Thank you Miss Joan for the tutorial! I haven’t canned in years and this was a nice refresher! ❤ truth be told, I never even thought about canning frozen vegetables!
Thanks for your nice comment. I love canning!
I just found you and subscribed, great explanations thank you, love your accent.
Thank you. I hope you enjoy the recipes!
I only have a boiling bath canner. This looks like a great way to get the stock of veggies out of the freezer
@@sparkleon8563 I haven't had any experience in waterbath canning these particular vegetables. I think they require pressure. But some people waterbath everything, but much longer processing times. Let me know what you learn in your search.
Good way to take advantage of frozen vegetable sales.
@@cfreeman5830 I love sales too! Get them cheap and can them up!
This is a great Idea. I just started canning last month and I have many bags of veggies in the freezer. Thank you sharing this video and info!
You are welcome.
This is a great video and you are so happy, a joy to watch. I never thought of canning frozen veggies. I am a novice to canning and I don’t particularly like the taste of commercially canned vegetables so I will definitely give this a try (as soon as I get a pressure canner). 😀
Estate sales are a good place to look for a pressure canner.
I just found this page. Very cool to can frozen veggies. I will surely try this out. ❤
Thanks. So easy!
You speak my language! I am from AL as well. 😁 I am so glad I came across your video. I didn't know you could buy different weights to control the pressure. I have been so frustrated for years because I have to keep watch on my pressure cooker to keep it at 10 lbs. I also need a rack so that I can have 2 levels of jars.
Hello fellow Alabamian! Is that a word? I learn something new all the time. I love canning! Thanks for your nice comment.

You are so welcome. It's wonderful to preserve food for your family.
Thank you. I've never canned. I watch so many videos about it and still haven't tried. This actually took all the fear away. Thanks again.
I'm so happy it encouraged you to give it a try!
If you buy a canner a book will come with it. I still watched videos for months before I canned. It’s been 3 years now and I have canned a lot - whenever I find a good sale 😉. It has taken a lot of worry away from me about power outages etc. And I really enjoy it. Good luck
@@debbiesmith4186 I especially enjoy not having to worry about power outages. I love canning.
thank you for the video. So nice to see someone canning with bigger jars
You are welcome!
What about brown butter beans and green Lima's?
They would definitely take 75 pints to process.
I'm emptying a freezer to defrost it and canned up a 5lb bag of green beans the other day. Also did some pork butt ans chicken breast. Next week I'm canning a brisket and I'll be almost done.
Wonderful!
Such a great video 😂 I'm just learning how to pressure can and you made it look so easy...I was scared to death😂 thank you again for calming my nerves. 💕
Carolynn from Los Angeles, Ca.
That's my hope is to encourage others. I too was scared to death at one time.
Blizzard of 93 and the April 2011 tornados. Yep. That will change you. I grew up in Oneonta, AL and live in St. Clair county now.
How well I remember 93 and 2011! Blizzard of 93 totally got me to thinking my household should be better prepared for sudden total life change such as no electricity, heat, etc. In 93 we were in a total electric house when the blizzard hit and we survived in one room with a kerosene heater. To this day my daughter won't eat pork and beans out of a can because we ate so much of it during the blizzard!
That was such a smart thing to do!❤❤
@@phylliscurtner5578 It sure helps clear my freezer. Thanks for watching.

Sometimes freezers just get too crowded. In an apartment you just need to be able to clear it out for fresh use. In times of prolonged power outage a crowded freezer is a terrible waste. Making stews to can will be my next project.
I agree. I love canning then you don't have to worry about power outage or freezer failure.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan
Mom n I had chest freezers, but being alone I couldn't keep one in an apartment. I forgot how we'd bulk buy and harvest to can n freeze in July- Sept. and can from the freezer in fall n winter.
