Thank you Bev for doing these videos, I have watched and learnt from you for years now. I know that you have done these videos before and would like to make a comment on this......... Please, please, please..... keep doing these each year..... why....... because 1. it gets you into a routine each year. It reminds us it is that time again. 2. I see something new in each video that I missed in the past one. 3. I just love watching you prepare for your winter each year, makes me feel like I am part of your family. Love you to bits Bev , you truly a great human being.
Thank you for keeping it real and showing the broken jar! I broke one the other day and wondered why I never see things like that happen to any of the you tubers I love to watch.
But OH in the depths of a cold and miserable Winter how grateful you will be for the hard work you put in here!! Potato Salad hankering? Instant gratification at hand. Loaded Potato Soup or a lovely thick Leek & Potato for Daddy after a cold day hunting? Bam ready. A great tutorial Bev.
I’m so glad you have teaching videos. I can a lot, but I always need not only continued education, but I love to learn new things!! As well as reinforcement of correct canning techniques. Thank you so much for all you do, it is greatly appreciated 🥰🥰🥰
I never blanch mine and they really are delicious... they are one of my favorite home canned goods on my shelf. So versatile...My favorite way to use them is with my home canned roast and home canned carrots...I saute onions in small amount of butter then add carrots, drained potatoes and beef roast...heat everything through and taa daa Yankee pot roast in less than 20 minutes. I also love them with dumplings...yes potatoes and dumplings...my mother in law from Kentucky taught me that one. They remind her of her childhood...awe she is 86...so fun to do that... Sometimes I peel them and sometimes I don't...depends on how tough the skins are...great video Bev.
So much fun. I love the feeling of having completed canned items all lined up and just gaze upon them with such s feeling of satisfaction. Again and again.
So glad that you are still showing us canning videos. I'm tired. Just finished making 400 + cookies (over the last 2 weeks). These are going to be served at my county"s Bee Symposium tomorrow. I put them in the freezer so they stayed fresh. Because I had to have room in the freezer, I used my leftover frozen vegetables & turkey bones & parts to make 14 jars of pressured broth. Now that that the cookies are finished I will start canning again. Our Farmers Markets are quite high priced.
Thank you for doing this! I love your canning videos! You explain things in a way I understand and help me feel more confident in starting to can. Have a blessed day :-)
I have learned so much from you and I think you are very inspiring. I too have Fibro. I have it controlled with a GF, DF and sugar free diet. I will still have some days that aren’t great for sure so I really felt for you with your sore hands today. I LOVE your canning videos!!
Oh my.....I miss my garden. I love home canned potatoes. And don't forget, warm em up, & mash em. REAL Mashed potatoes in under 5 minutes. I've got 1 pint jar left from last year, it's like gold
Good video. I love watching canning videos and your crafting video and your new style of life with Volfies.although I am sorry the jar broke but it was a good lesson. I know some people scoop ice out of the ice maker with glass. Also not a good idea. Thank you for making the video's. I don't watch news or cable any longer and find these "real life" NOT reality TV much better.
+Julie from Georgia - Me too Julie. We live in Australia and it is our last month of winter. . .what a let down not many cold, cold nights at all. I would rather watch one video from Bev (although I would watch twenty a day if she put them out lol) a day than watch tv or netflix. If there are no vids to watch I work in my craft room creating art or making junk journals etc. Love Bev and Volfie xx Michelle
My mom knits dish rags n I told her about the scrubby yarn. Now she's gonna make me one. I'm so excited cause I love her dish rags so I know I'm gonna love a scrubby.
Only time I like commercially sliced canned potatoes and canned sliced mushrooms is when we camped. To make pan fries, and I would bring a cooking onion and my cast iron fry pan to cook on top of a fire pit grate or coleman stove. Oh and a small bottle of oil and maybe some butter, depending on if we were taking a cooler with ice. Now a days I think roughing it camping is a little too much for us. We need a wheel it up and plug it in holiday house on wheels. LOL BOY You been busy.
Thank you Bev. I went to a farm stand and found some small new potatoes. I will be canning them tomorrow. I can't wait to try them. I agree the store ones are nasty. I just did some dill pickles today and also picked up (in the freezer) some chinese red noodle beans. I used the boiling water from the pickles to blanch my beans. lol Double duty. Then we use the boiling water to pour on ant piles in the yard. So that water was triple duty.
Bev, "greening" and edibility has nothing to do with what type of potato it is. Potatoes grow underground, they don't like light , so when they get "sun kissed" they tend to turn green. The green part is NOT edible, but you can CUT it away and then cook them and eat them. Potatoes do not go from green to white as many people think, green does not mean young - it's simply a sign of over-exposure. Been a farmer/farmers wife for 30 yrs this Oct. trust me.
I agree with you gingergargoyle. You can cut the green off and eat the potato and yes it is from being exposed to the sunlight. I'm 62 yrs old and have been told I could eat them if you cut the green off since I was a little girl helping my mum and nan do the potatoes for the family baked lunch.
+Deb Allen - Totally agree Deb. If I had to throw out every green potato in a bag of spuds then I would be broke lol. As a pensioner I cannot afford to waste money and there is no need to throw them out as we both know lol. Michelle
gingergargoyle I can’t read the comments bu this is what we were taught as kids too. Also a farmers wife of 25 years but not spud farmers! Although my husband grew up growing acres of spuds we’ve only grown a few acres ourselves. We make milk ;)
You have inspired me to can some potatoes for use this winter. I feed sometimes ten people on weekends. I want new potatoes tho. I cooked some store bought potatoes last weekend and my grown daughter said "Mom these potatoes taste like dirt" bought at the grocery store the day before but were year old potatoes.
I love canned potatoes for quick meals, I love adding them to smoke sausage and peppers or to make potatoes salad with in a hurry,for like small bowl potatoes salad, I'm with you store can potatoes are aweful and home can are great
Woot woot love it when you do canning n cooking videos I know it’s hard on you but your such a blessing to thousands of people. Have a great day Ms Bev!
Hi Bev! Can I suggest that you use one of those exfoliating gloves on your bad hand especially... like you I have it in the same joint hurts like a bugger!
Hey Bev! There is an easier and faster way to clean your potatoes. Just put a new toiletbrush on your electric drill and give it a wirl in a bucket with water and the potatoes . It cleans the potatoes in seconds!
Mom Grandma people keep asking me what my skin routine is because they like my skin and I laugh and I say shampoo and canner Steam I never even use soap on my face
Thanks for the canning video!! You were one of the people that inspired me to start canning!! I learned so much about canning from you over the years!! Thanks Bev and God bless you!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing. Take care of the thumb. I will have to make a couple of scrubbies now that I've seen how well they work. Peace and blessings.
I'm canning potatoes today!! You have know idea how much this video helped me, I did not know that keeping the skins on would help keep the starch in. Thank you so much for redoing this video ( I looked up your last video on this )
Mrs. Volfie get you a nail brush from the store, it simplr fits over your four fingers and can was those veggies with a light brushing and save those thumbs. Arthritis is getting to me as well. Hurts I know. thnx for sharing. This nail brush is curve at both ends to just slip over your finger uo to the second knuckle.
Save your home canned potato water!!! Use in soup where a potato flavor tastes good or use instead of water in any regular bread/roll recipe, (you now have potato bread/rolls), adjusting salt in recipes. If any starch is in bottom of jar, you can use in bread/rolls and leave out for soup. Would it be helpful to wear a wrist/thumb brace on your hurting hand while canning?
I am SO GLAD I found your TH-cam Channel!! You have been a great motivator for my husband and I to start canning again. We do have a question for you...Have you ever had a lid "buckle" on you when using your pressure canner? We had this happen with a jar of potatoes and with a few jars of cabbage. We make sure the produce, jars, lids and rims are very hot when we put the produce in the jar. We also make sure to de-bubble very well. The water in the pressure canner is very hot to boiling when the jars go in. What could we be doing wrong? Or did we just have a wonky lid.
Another thing, I do not think the potatoes from grocery stores have not been cured correctly. They are wet in the plastic bags. They do not last very long in storage and start sprouting out of season. I have tried putting the potatoes in a single layer and cover them to air dry. This helped some, but still would not last in long term storage. I include sweet potatoes in this. Store bought swt pot also do not last. Got a huge box of swt pot at farmers market. Those babies lasted through two winters!
Im so greatful for ur videos!♥️ I did the boiled eggs today. Ur tip was to put the eggs in BOILING water and then an Ice Bath--and boy did it work like magic! Yay So thank u so much
busy busy-- same here- canning canning- potatoes are one thing i havent canned before- if i had an abundance i would but as of yet i havent-- much love-- miss ya...Glo
I wish I had the farmer's markets near me like you have. What a great haul! I'm going to redo my potatoes because I cooked them a little too long. Oopsie.
Love your videos. That was a lot of work but the satisfaction of looking at those jars of food must be immense. What a shame about the cracked jar, probably better to see it before than after pressure cooking though. Can I can collards? Thank you Bev for a great video X
The potatoes look good. It has to be so much easier to can them and already have them at your disposal for whatever you want to do with them. I have a great combo green beans and potatoes so good. How long did it take you to can 57 quart's?
Always interesting. Especially from an expert with loads of experience! I am on my own......but I canned, made jam n pickles n tomatoes in my 20's without any fancy equipment n the food lasted. With all of my health issues today n apartment living! Not for me. No energy. Always enjoy your 🎥 s! Thx
Hi Mrs. Volfie! Thank you for sharing this video with us here on TH-cam. I've been learning so much from you about canning. This weekend I will be canning my first potato's. Have you ever tried soaking your hand in Epsom salt and warm water?
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your canning videos! Every single dang one! You freaking rock! I just canned a bushel of tomatoes. Got one more to go. I just do them whole (peeled/cored) and make what I want later, sauce or whatever. Thank you for being my inspiration, teacher and SISTA FROM ANOTHA MISTA!!! Hahahaha 😂😂😂😍 God Bless ~Lisa
When pressure canning the potatoes, do they cook while pressure canning? I missed what the 'lesson' was when the jar broke.... love your canning videos.... love all your videos.
I was thinking I might give this a go as I like the idea of having them ready to go, but still not sold on those though little skins throughout my spuds. 🤔 I'm going to ask for new potatoes at the market thanks for that too. 😉
Great video, Mrs. V!!! And, by the way, you ARE losing weight! You look terrific! Keep up the good work! Thanks for sharing! Take care and God bless. Hugggggs! Muuuhhhaaa!
Bev, I saw a container of Quaker Oats on your counter and wanted to let you know what I found out the other day. There was an article that gave a list of some foods that have an ingredient that is the same as in Round Up. Quaker Oats was one of the foods listed. I can't remember where the article was and wish I had bookmarked it, so I don't know the ingredient. Just thought I'd let you know! It was the Non-GMO kind - I threw a whole big box of it out.
Im so close to actually trying my luck at pressure canning. Its either gonna be potatoes, or possibly chicken.. these are the two i have chosen and now i just have to decide which one i am willing to take risk on in case i mess up. Looking at the least expensive possible fail to start with. And so far chicken or potatoes is the least expensive two items i can come up with in my area with the price of food going up. And of course i came looking for all your potato videos.
Your right.store bought canned guck.home canned awesome an time consuming.i just canned up 150 lbs of them.gifts,ourselves and our older kids for a few jars along with a gift basket of canned goodies.
My canned potatoes had so much starch go into the water that it turned like jello. Yuck, but once I rinse them a couple times and blend them up they make okay slightly slimy mashed potatoes.
God love ya! Had such a hard time listening to you once you pointed out your thumb. I've got the same problem on both hands and can imagine the burning sensation you're experiencing!
Love the canning videos,and store bought canned potatoes are terrible don,t even taste like a potato no matter how you season them ych !!! Those are going to be so good with your green beans and pork or bacon this winter, I also put corn in with my green beans yummy!!
Bev, I'm probably awful for suggesting this but have you ever thought of putting all of your potatoes into the last agitation and rinse cycle of your washing machine? It won't produce more dirt than say, some muddy pants from working outside and I think your potatoes would be quite clean after the cycle. I know this sounds ludicrous but being from Hawaii, I can tell you that a lot of fishermen have an old washer outside for octopus. They scrub it freshly caught with salt to release a bunch of slime and then put them through the washer to rinse and tenderize it. How brave are you to try a batch of dirty potatoes? Anyone know? It could save your hands. PS Golly, I just watched the end of the video. 57 quarts of potatoes? WOW! I've never owned 57 quarts of ANYTHING IN MY LIFE!!!
fattymoko if I had my old Center agitator washing machine I probably would! But my new high-efficiency washer won't let me pick a cycles and use it you have to run it through the entire wash rinse and Tumble cycle so no I can't do that
fattymoko, I’ve been washing my potatoes in my Maytag washing machine for 25 years. My aunt and cousins wash them in their washing machine too, it works great! The agitating cleans them and knocks the new peals off, so I don’t have to peal them. I just bought a new Speed Queen so I hope it works as well as my old Maytag at knocking off the peals. Use the full cycle and spin them dry. After you take the potatoes out, immediately scoop out the “bathtub ring” so the peals don’t dry on the barrel. Works great!

Hi Bev! Can I suggest that you use one of those exfoliating gloves on your bad hand especially... like you I have it in the same joint hurts like a bugger!
What a great idea ! I've seen them at the dollar store too .
aw man love you ... you are so down to Earth ... real! Thank you I learned a lot:-)
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I love your canning videos
Hey Bev! There is an easier and faster way to clean your potatoes. Just put a new toiletbrush on your electric drill and give it a wirl in a bucket with water and the potatoes . It cleans the potatoes in seconds!
Maaru I love that you wrote NEW toilet brush. Ha.
I like how you take the time to explain each step Bev. Canning is also a sauna...cleanses your pores.
Mom Grandma people keep asking me what my skin routine is because they like my skin and I laugh and I say shampoo and canner Steam I never even use soap on my face
Thanks for the canning video!! You were one of the people that inspired me to start canning!! I learned so much about canning from you over the years!! Thanks Bev and God bless you!!
I am so glad to see new videos! You are in my top 5 favorite channel list!
Love your videos dear lady. Thank you for sharing.

Hurts I know. thnx for sharing. This nail brush is curve at both ends to just slip over your finger uo to the second knuckle.
I loved this video, super in depth and easy for even the beginner to go by, thank you so much Bev, you are a awesome person . {{hugs}} God Bless
Tyfs your canning potatoes 👍
Looks good. Enjoy your videos
Love all your explanations, thank you
Save your home canned potato water!!! Use in soup where a potato flavor tastes good or use instead of water in any regular bread/roll recipe, (you now have potato bread/rolls), adjusting salt in recipes.

I look forward to these videos and always try to do them when you post them
Thanks a lot
I love you so thorough
My jars 1 does not have any liquid left??1 jar is missing 1/3 of liquid.are they still ok.Canned potatoes.
Thank you! I’ve been seriously thinking of canning potatoes this year. You are the best!
You are so good !!!.. I'm doing potatoes this weekend!!!..Thank you God bless 💕🤗🙏🌷

Thank you! I just love your canning videos!
Thanks for the canning video!

ERIKA DOWDY I don't see why not as long as they don't freeze but they're just as fine in a paper bag or a wooden potato bin
busy busy-- same here- canning canning- potatoes are one thing i havent canned before- if i had an abundance i would but as of yet i havent-- much love-- miss ya...Glo
I wish I had the farmer's markets near me like you have. What a great haul! I'm going to redo my potatoes because I cooked them a little too long. Oopsie.
Patriot Chic 33 it happens to us all at least once lol
Love your videos. That was a lot of work but the satisfaction of looking at those jars of food must be immense. What a shame about the cracked jar, probably better to see it before than after pressure cooking though. Can I can collards? Thank you Bev for a great video X
mrsgbee I've never had collards... So you may want to Google that
I dehydrate my collards...works great...they are yummy Bev...similar to other greens..i e... turnip, mustard
The potatoes look good. It has to be so much easier to can them and already have them at your disposal for whatever you want to do with them. I have a great combo green beans and potatoes so good. How long did it take you to can 57 quart's?
Sandra Nodine LOL I was so tired I didn't even count right it was only 45 took me a day and a half
Thank you, great job....
Loved it
Thank you!!!
Love the canning videos. ❤️☮️🍴
Always interesting. Especially from an expert with loads of experience! I am on my own......but I canned, made jam n pickles n tomatoes in my 20's without any fancy equipment n the food lasted. With all of my health issues today n apartment living! Not for me. No energy. Always enjoy your 🎥 s! Thx
I need to learn to pressure can!
Love all your videos. I'm new to the channel so I have alot of catching up to do. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
Hi Mrs. Volfie! Thank you for sharing this video with us here on TH-cam. I've been learning so much from you about canning. This weekend I will be canning my first potato's. Have you ever tried soaking your hand in Epsom salt and warm water?
Yvonne Luke I will try that for sure
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your canning videos! Every single dang one! You freaking rock! I just canned a bushel of tomatoes. Got one more to go. I just do them whole (peeled/cored) and make what I want later, sauce or whatever. Thank you for being my inspiration, teacher and SISTA FROM ANOTHA MISTA!!! Hahahaha 😂😂😂😍 God Bless ~Lisa
Bev do you can different types of potatoes? What about canning green beans with the potatoes?
I hate that one of your jars broke but now I know what to listen for and not to ignore the sound.
It happens!
Hi bev I love your videos.
When pressure canning the potatoes, do they cook while pressure canning? I missed what the 'lesson' was when the jar broke.... love your canning videos.... love all your videos.
I was thinking I might give this a go as I like the idea of having them ready to go, but still not sold on those though little skins throughout my spuds. 🤔 I'm going to ask for new potatoes at the market thanks for that too. 😉
Brenda Strand Rigdon you can peel them! I just don't bother cuz my hands don't want me peeling and cutting that many potatoes LOL
I always learn something from you even tho I have been canning for a million years, well it seems like that anyway.
Great video, Mrs. V!!! And, by the way, you ARE losing weight! You look terrific! Keep up the good work! Thanks for sharing! Take care and God bless. Hugggggs! Muuuhhhaaa!
Bev, I saw a container of Quaker Oats on your counter and wanted to let you know what I found out the other day. There was an article that gave a list of some foods that have an ingredient that is the same as in Round Up. Quaker Oats was one of the foods listed. I can't remember where the article was and wish I had bookmarked it, so I don't know the ingredient. Just thought I'd let you know! It was the Non-GMO kind - I threw a whole big box of it out.
I've been waiting to ask, but how have the Lehmans lids worked out? Thank you for the potato tips.
I have never parboiled them first and never had a problem.
Ms. V this will be my first time canning potatoes, are the jars hot or warm
Im so close to actually trying my luck at pressure canning. Its either gonna be potatoes, or possibly chicken.. these are the two i have chosen and now i just have to decide which one i am willing to take risk on in case i mess up. Looking at the least expensive possible fail to start with. And so far chicken or potatoes is the least expensive two items i can come up with in my area with the price of food going up. And of course i came looking for all your potato videos.
Your right.store bought canned guck.home canned awesome an time consuming.i just canned up 150 lbs of them.gifts,ourselves and our older kids for a few jars along with a gift basket of canned goodies.
I Love being able to gift my family food when they need it! Good Job Honey!
I have been canning potatoes for 30 years and have never par boiled my. I also can them whole with skins on. i only cut them if they don't fit in jar.
Yes, I do that also.just canned 14 litres!
You are so cool!
❤️❤️❤️
"Guess What!....And Bob's your Uncle and you got instant potato salad."
Hi bev not to change the subject but how do you store rolled oats?
FROYLAN GUILLEN ALVAREZ in jars
Can you can fresh potatoes from the store ?
I had an Uncle named Bob, I only met him once. James Durbin is his great grand son.
My canned potatoes had so much starch go into the water that it turned like jello. Yuck, but once I rinse them a couple times and blend them up they make okay slightly slimy mashed potatoes.
Bev ..I noticed you put boiling water in the jar after the potatoes ....did you use boiling water in the beans too?
Julie Britt , if the water in your canner is hot, use hot water, if it’s cold use cold.
Cindy bonem ...ok thank you
God love ya! Had such a hard time listening to you once you pointed out your thumb. I've got the same problem on both hands and can imagine the burning sensation you're experiencing!

Love the canning videos,and store bought canned potatoes are terrible don,t even taste like a potato no matter how you season them ych !!! Those are going to be so good with your green beans and pork or bacon this winter, I also put corn in with my green beans yummy!!
If you are able to, wrap/brace that hand now and use a latex glove for protection.
What if the potato is big and green?
Maria Debroeck , just peal it, until it’s not green any more and cook it or can it.
Bev, I'm probably awful for suggesting this but have you ever thought of putting all of your potatoes into the last agitation and rinse cycle of your washing machine? It won't produce more dirt than say, some muddy pants from working outside and I think your potatoes would be quite clean after the cycle. I know this sounds ludicrous but being from Hawaii, I can tell you that a lot of fishermen have an old washer outside for octopus. They scrub it freshly caught with salt to release a bunch of slime and then put them through the washer to rinse and tenderize it. How brave are you to try a batch of dirty potatoes? Anyone know? It could save your hands. PS Golly, I just watched the end of the video. 57 quarts of potatoes? WOW! I've never owned 57 quarts of ANYTHING IN MY LIFE!!!
fattymoko if I had my old Center agitator washing machine I probably would! But my new high-efficiency washer won't let me pick a cycles and use it you have to run it through the entire wash rinse and Tumble cycle so no I can't do that
fattymoko, I’ve been washing my potatoes in my Maytag washing machine for 25 years. My aunt and cousins wash them in their washing machine too, it works great! The agitating cleans them and knocks the new peals off, so I don’t have to peal them. I just bought a new Speed Queen so I hope it works as well as my old Maytag at knocking off the peals. Use the full cycle and spin them dry. After you take the potatoes out, immediately scoop out the “bathtub ring” so the peals don’t dry on the barrel. Works great!
I had a friend who canned lots of pickes, and she did this this with her cukes ❤
