Congratulations on your new pressure cooker! They are amazing tools, especially the now very expensive, solid cast aluminum, and machined All-American pressure canners. I'm sure you will find many uses for your new tool. In 1984 with an insane bounty of green beans being produced from a 4'×4'x2' raised, Square Foot garden bed, I went back to the kinda upscale kitchenwares store in the Towson Mall in Towson, Maryland, an immediate suburb of northern Baltimore City, and pulled the trigger on the purchase of a *21.5 quart, All-American cast aluminum pressure canner.* In retrospect, I later regretted not purchasing the All-American 30 quart model. It had the exact same footprint as the 21.5 quart model except that it was tall enough to allow one to place two tiers of quart Mason jars inside the pressure canner instead of the single layer of quart jars that the 21.5 quart model could accommodate. Nevertheless, that 21.5 quart pressure canner was used for several decades to pressure can all manner of low-acid fruits and vegetables, as well as chicken stock, beef stock, fish stock, vegetable stock, and mushroom stock. I had several weeks previously purchased a cast aluminum, sheet aluminum, and chrome-plated steel *Squeezo machine* for processing raw tomatoes and cooked apples from the same store. That 4'×4' Square Foot bed was planted entirely with Blue Lake bush beans at a rate of 9 seeds per square foot, for a total of 144 bean plants for the 16 square feet of that particular bed. The bed was actually a 9' wide × 27' long × 2' deep bed that I divided into 7 rectangular beds within the larger bed by lag bolting 2"×6" cross braces that spanned the width of the short sides of the bed. Down the center of bed I deck screwed three 2"×4" boards side by side to create a 1' wide tiny walkway down the length of the top of the bed so that I could properly access the centers of what were now 14 individual 4'×4' Square Foot growing plots within the totality of the 243 square feet of root space in that bed. Prior to pressure canning several dozen quarts of green beans in wide-mouth Mason jars, my mother and I had blanched, frozen, and double Zip-loc freezer bagged approximately 30 quarts of green beans. This was in addition to eating green beans fresh about twice a week, as well as giving away about 10 pounds of green beans to relatives and neighbors.
Thank you very much, I hope I get as much enjoyment out of my pressure canner as you have. It is so fabulous that it is possible to preserve low-acid vegetables and meat in this way. It sounds like you made the most of the space with the green beans, now I was inspired to can beans and peas next year. Thank you so very much😊 Thank you for sharing this inspiring message which only underpins all my hope for my new pressure canner😊
😂 It's an absolutely fantastic way to preserve food but I was so scared this first time 😂 It's a bit of a shame that there is so little equipment for pressure canning in Norway, but it's fun and try and fail a little and learn a lot of new things 🙂 Hope you get tried it in the future 🙂
Actually the smell of chantarelles being cooked in our kitchen is sth I can recall any minute. It is so well sunk into my memory. We used to pick up mushrooms for many years. Now it is harder as we had draught again this year. As far as pressure canning is concerned I only know it from American videos,and madon jars are the items you would not buy in any shop unless it is online Amazon. As always I admire your patience and resistance. It was quite challanging job as I could gather after watching all the video. Best regards 🥰
It sounds like good memories❤️🤗 Unfortunately, it seems that the weather and climate will continue to be turbulent and unpredictable. It is worrying. Maybe next year it will be mushroom year again for you 😊 Pressure canning didn't go completely smoothly on our first attempt, but it gets a little easier each time. 😅It's a shame it's not easier to get equipment for pressure canning for you either😬
Do you have success with regular re-used mason jars as well? It is a jungle to find this out in Norway and Denmark to, so it is interesting that it also not easily available with pressure cooker for canning or mason jars in Sweden either.
😊thank you for watching. Sorry to hear about your experience. Doesn’t sound right. We have used the Ball mason jar’s recipes for meat. So far we had success with the taste 🤞Good luck with your canning 😊
Busy milking here and with the geese and am getting a pair of muscovy ducks on saturday,please God,one of my goats is very sick and is n the large animal hospital of the veterimary college,Siv. Hope all is well with you,hugs,Fiona
Oh no! So sad about the goat. Is there hope that she can get through it? Congratulations on the geese and the ducks coming this weekend❤️ Muscovy ducks are just the best 🥰 Hope you get to take care of yourself every once in a while too. Hugs😊
@@wildandwoolly Very sad about Katie,it might be Johne's disease and that is bad, she did not look good yesterday when I visited her but she is strong,I brought her ivy and branches and her food.Getting ready to collect my ducks and to bring Katie home as soon as possible if I can.You are super,hugs,Fiona
@@wildandwoolly She is wasting away and has ascites and pleural effusion,she is on antibiotics and antiinflammatories and her heart,liver and kidneys are ok,so it could be Johne's Disease.Maybe she will heal slowly but it is incurable.I want to bring her home to her kid Jo and her sistter if they can't do more.Poor Katie xx
Hei på dere, sett jakt og fritid har begynt å selge canning utstyr, men fortsatt dårlig med glass her hjemme, sett et svensk firma på insta som har begynt å selge dette utstyret, hvor kjøpte dere det? Link evt😊 lykke til videre med canning🍲
Hei der, så artig at du også ser på dette, det er virkelig ikke er stort pressure canning miljø i Norge. Trykk kokeren fant vi på finn.no, flere som imponerer fra usa der og der blir billigere enn og importere selv. Glass bestilt vi fra Hadeland Glassverk men det kan virkelig ikke anbefales, selv med metall lokk så er det alltid noen som ikke får vakum. Så langt har vi hatt best resultat med gjennbruksglass. Type helt vanlige syltetøyglass. Vi har bestilt ett større parti med liters glass fra flasker og glass som vi fortsatt venter på så vet ikke om de kan anbefales enda. Skal si ifra når jeg vet 😊

Hello from USA! I just started pressure canning for the first time last year. I haven't done any yet this year but plan on it.
It's so exciting😀 It is a fabulous way to take care of the summer harvest into the winter months. The best of wishes for this year's canning for you😊
Amazing! I had to giggle so much, but i felt along with your fear! Pressure canning seems very scary to me too. But one day I'll have a go at it too.😊
😂 It's an absolutely fantastic way to preserve food but I was so scared this first time 😂 It's a bit of a shame that there is so little equipment for pressure canning in Norway, but it's fun and try and fail a little and learn a lot of new things 🙂 Hope you get tried it in the future 🙂
I do envy you this pressure canner and of course I am happy, too. Great tool to preserve many goods. I hope it will serve you well and last long 🥫🫕
And - belive it or not - I can smell your chantarelles 😊
Thank you 😊😊 Is pressure canning a much just practice in Poland? The whole house smelled of wonderful mushrooms when I made the chantarelles 😊

😃💚 It's hard in sweden to find the stuff they use in America too. I also just use normal cans. Thank You for Sharing this.
Do you have success with regular re-used mason jars as well? It is a jungle to find this out in Norway and Denmark to, so it is interesting that it also not easily available with pressure cooker for canning or mason jars in Sweden either.
