Thank you Berta. I lost my mother while I was still serving in the Navy and she was the most accomplished canner and preserver I had ever known. Then early last year we lost my wife's mother, and I never took the time to learn from her. So if you don't mind, mom, I need to learn how to preserve the produce of my garden.
Yes, it’s great that we pass on what we know. The next generation will learn from us and survive. That’s our job. Pass on what we know. Your are gods gift to the world. Bless you.
Wow. Another way to not waste food. I love this. It’s just my husband and me here now and too much is just too much. Aside from that you are looking better and better - definitely younger. A real inspiration.
Frozen Greens Rock!!! Thank you sooo much! I literally had a pot of hot water on the stove boiling, and I was about to prepare my ice baths. Then I saw this, and I turned off the stove! I love working smarter, not harder like you! I have a 18 month old, and if I can save time in the kitchen, I'm all for it ❤ Peace & blessings to you! 😊
You have made my day with that comment, Satu. I am a grandma and I love just sharing with others about what I have learned. I am so thankful it makes you feel so much a part of what what I do. Bless you, my dear "adopted granddaughter" 🥰 Have a peace-filled and joyful day.
I’m like you, lol, don’t want a lot of work involved. For my greens, after I wash and spin them in the salad spinner, I just put them in a bag, like a cup each for my smoothies, and put them in the freezer, that’s it. Sometimes I go ahead and put the fruit in there too and just get a bag (like the gallon tie bags) and put the ingredients in there and then just put them in my blender when I’m ready for a smoothie. Much easier than having to gather the banana, orange, or whatever other fruit or berries I’m gonna use, its already together.
Frozen Greens Rock! 🥬 I always watch until the end because the music is light hearted and I enjoy it. I love how you have your kale in jars around your kitchen. I know that’s how it should be stored in the refrigerator. But it also gave me some ideas for my next flower arrangement. 😊🌺
Thank you for the video. Just discovered your channel yesterday when I was looking for how to make Maple Sugar. I am from East-Friesland, the most north western corner of Germany, close to the border of the Netherlands. Kale is by far our national dish. Normally we eat it during winter as Kale needs to get frost.The frost will turn the starch into sugar. As Kale can be bitter, the sweetness takes away the bitterness. Some people would also add sugar to Kale once its cooked. You serve kale with spuds and smoked sausages or a sort of smoked gammon steak (Kassler, very german). Kale is very popular in north Germany, but also England of all places. I love Kale so much, I eat it all year round. Again, thank you for your channel.
Hello Hanno! My mother's family is totally German on both sides - my cousins have traced our ancestry back to Germany in 1600s - my great grandfather came to the US from a town on the Dutch border called Bocholt in 1854 - & I grew up eating many German dishes. We had kale all the time too - and that's back in the 50s & 60s when kale as a vegetable was largely unknown here. Your comment made me remember all the good recipes my aunts & grandmothers made with kale. Thanks for posting it & stay safe & well!! 🇺🇸🇩🇪
Hello, Hanno from Germany. So excited to hear from you. So tell me, the best time to plant kale is when? I'd love to try planting some. It is a joy for me to know that l reach people all over the world...so glad YOU discovered me. 👍🏽🥬❤ Thank you for you message.
@@bertajay I use steel and whole grain oats, smoked paprika, turmeric, pepper, kale (and or spinach, collards).. Add water and cook. Then I add flax and sometimes imitation bacon (soy). I got this (General) recipe from Ann Esselstyn :) I’ve also made it with oat groats. I keep them par-cooked and frozen.
Thanks so much, sis. I do enjoy what l do on my channel. I am so glad that you do too. I really appreciate your comments. Have a peace-filled day. 🥬👍🏽😊
I love, love, love kale and collards, and recently purchased 32 ounces of these beautiful and plentiful greens. I was trying to come up with an easy way to freeze without going the par-boil route, you read my thoughts . Now I can hardly wait to try your method on my next purchase. Fantastic presentation sister love you. Frozen greens rock.
Just found your channel yesterday and I already like you a lot. Sensible and simple instructions for those of us who never really learned how to master the kitchen. Thank you!
Hello Bertha Jay! I just discovered your channel and trust me when I say you made my day so much better with your positive and loving energy! Thank you SO much❤️
Oh, Celine...you are so welcome. Forgive me for the delay in replying. I really love what I do with my channel. I just share what I know with who I am. I am always working on me and wanted to have others join in my journey to better health. I appreciate your comments. They have truly humbled me. 😊👍🏾 🥬
I love Fresh Greens in salads, soups, smoothies and casseroles. Thank you so much for showing how to freeze options for freezing Fresh Greens. I love your wonderful videos they are so helpful. Love Tamson 😇💚
Frozen 🥶 Greens 🥬 Rock 🪨! Yass and thank you Berta Jay! I just purchased 8 lbs of turnip greens from the farmers market with the intention of freezing them and now I have a quick simple way to do it in addition to blanching them! I think I’ll subscribe and find out what other great tips you’ve shared. Love ❤️ from St. Louis, MO!
Hello, Berta, dear friend. Frozen greens do indeed rock! I always keep some spinach in my freezer, but this is a much better way of a) having a variety of greens, and b) having organic, locally grown produce in my freezer. So THANK YOU! This is a real help. And, as always, you made my day lighter 😄
Thank you so much Berta. I absolutely knew you could freeze, flash freeze,Kale space without blanching. But your video is the first video that I found that actually confirmed it
Perfect timing for your video! I was just going out to my garden today where my kale and collards are in abundance. Now I know how to easily and quickly get them in the freezer so they don't go to waste, thank you!
Hey Berta Jay, thanks, I was needing this, very easy and not much work. If I'm going to eat healthy (plant based) I want it to be easy. Now I'm going to check out the kale chips.
Frozen greens 🥬 Rock...and so do you and Evan❤️😘❤️. I have been just putting mine in a bag and using them clumped together when I need them. This was very helpful. Thank you!🙌🏾👍🏾👏🏽😘❤️
It's nice to see all the people from the Troup, who watch me to the end of the video. That was totally Evan's idea. I really liked it, too. I look forward to hearing from YOU, Barbara. Thanks for sharing. 🥬👍🏽❤
Thank you so much for the video! So helpful and I’m now curious on what else you can teach me. I’m a subscriber. Please add more videos for “can you freeze it” I’m trying to have fresh food and make the most out of my money as well. 🙏🏼
Thank you Ms. Berta watching from the Bahamas. I learn a lot how to freeze my greens. I grow a lotes of Callaloo, Kale, Collards greens so now I know how to freeze them thank you so much it is very easy.
So happy to have found you Berta Jay! A perfectly simple way to put up Greens! I am so glad to learn that I dont have to blanche! Its just tooo hot this summer to fire up the stove!
FROZEN GREENS ROCK!! Hey hey Berta Jay, I cut my collards the same way you do but have always wanted if I could freeze them.. thanks for another great video.. :)
Hey, hey Connie. Your comment made me smile so widely😁 because l always hope that whatever l share will help one of my troups...glad that was you today.❤
Frozen greens rock! Hi Berta Jay, Once frozen, how long do the greens stay good? When I worked on navy ships (not a sailor, did work while underway) there were a lot of frozen greens and it only took a couple of weeks before they got slimey and gross. I'm guessing that kale and collards hold up better because they're really tough.
WELCOME, Welcome, welcome, to my channel. Now you are officially in my Troup! Here’s your title because you joined: Berta Jay Trouper. Here’s the video you can watch when you get the chance so you will know how I came up with that name for you: th-cam.com/video/bejee5bsjw8/w-d-xo.html Thanks for the support and kind words, MsEgyptianBeauty!
Thank you for this video I'm grateful. I buy collards and kales for thanksgiving but they have the best prices. I bought a bushel this year so this helps. I'll be canning some as well. Frozen collards rock
Berta - is there an advantage to blanching the kale, collards or whatever BEFORE freezing them? If not, I think you have the right idea - LESS WORK TO DO! Unless the greens are somehow better to use after being blanched, I say - just freeze 'em!! PS - FROZEN GREENS ROCK! Have a great week & stay safe & well!! ❤️🥕❤️
Frozen Greens Rock! I am just getting into using a vacuum sealer and want to freeze the kale. I'm with you, less work is better! Your wash, cut freeze works for me! I do know some veges need blanching but would rather not! Thanks!!!😀😀😀
