Adding to the good advice you got from The Neals' Homestead: If you cook them a bit longer, the peels will literally slip right off...easily. Crazy easily. They will still can fine. Also, if you leave about an inch to an inch and a half of the stems instead of cutting so close to the beetroot, they won't bleed nearly as badly. Beets are my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE from the garden. I have been canning, pickling, Harvarding them, julienne-ing them and just plain buttering them for over 50 years! Good job !
Hello, kind of new gardener here😅. Love beets steamed till soft and eat just like that it has sweet flavor that I enjoy the most. However, the beets harvest time is right about to start what a lot of other vegetables coming out and I found my self having too much fresh beets to eat. I'd love to canning beets but I'm afraid that if the flavor might get lost in process. How would you like between the fresh cooked beets and canned beets? I'd love to hear from someone that have a lot of experience. Thank you very much in advance. Blessings 🌱
Sarah cook your beets until they are almost fork tender, the skins will slip right off including the stem end and often the root will just break away. If you can work really quickly they’ll still be hot going into the jar. My mom taught me 2c sugar, 2c water, 2c vinegar 1 tsp pickling salt makes a perfect brine for pickled beets 😋😋😋
This takes me back! I remember when I started canning, I was obsessed, canning whatever I could get my hands on. A mailer came announcing the county fair, so of course I entered a bunch of canned stuff. I won the Kerr AND the Ball award, as well as best in show. I won best in show with my red beets! Unless you can them you have no idea the work that goes into them. I assume the judges must have had some idea!
I have used a pair of gloves that are for exfoliating your skin in the bath, works great for rubbing off the beet skin after you boil them like you did.
Hey, everyone! This works great! Those skins were off in no time. I held the beets in one hands and used my extra exfoliating gloves to take off the beet skins. Worked like a charm! (Of course, that glove is now dedicated to beet/vegetable peeling...)
I'm 34 years old, and have been gardening and canning for a long time. I never tasted a beet. Until this winter. I have 8 rows planted this springs. Can't wait.
Sarah!!!!…. I have been watching you guys for about three years now… not sure youll even see this message but your personality SHINES in this video!!!! You made me smile so much while interacting with your family (and the camera man!) !!!! Love you guys so much!! I wish we were neighbors so we could have coffee together and a few laughs!
This was a suggestion from a dear friend of mine. I now have beautiful beets as I use the water from cooking the beets, straining it through a cloth to keep it clear.
OMG going back and looking at some of your older videos and I just have to say that you are wonderful! I love how upbeat you always are. I look forward to watching all of your videos because you guys make me smile and I also learn so much. You are an inspiration!! Thank you!!!
Sarah, Idea: I always add white vinegar, sugar, salt, and cloves, etc. to the jar liquid. The Ukrainian way is so darn addictive, that I can easily polish off one whole jar, but you’ll have to fight me for it. Serve either cold or hot as a side to your plate. So good for the body. Academy award worthy: This is your BEST video ever. Has to do with your bubbly, perky, funny girl presentation. 😬
Love Beets! And beet greens and stems too!!Oh wow, I can see the red water boiling..fresh beets are so good on salads raw..you two are so cute!! They are beautiful in their jars! So satisfying I bet for you!!
outside, turkey fryer, 2 coolers one with ice water and one with water. leave the mess out side. I even use the slicer to slice the beets into bowl outside. clean up is a snap and no staining.
Hey Sarah I know that this video is old but I just found you guy's. I saw other but they just don't make me feel as if I learning from my friend and sometimes I can even watch them the confidence level isn't there. So don't stop teaching those of us who need instructions. You guy's are great. Thanks praying for you and your family
I really love how you guys not only share how to grow the vegetables, but also what to do with them! My husband loves beets and we have a beautiful harvest of "peppermint beets" you know, the ones that look like candy canes inside? Cant eat them all at once, so I looked you up to learn how to can them. You guys are one of my favorites.
You can also roast them which avoids all the water mess. You just fill up whatever flat pans you have , put on the beets and then cover the pans with foil or something that will keep the steam in. When done, let them cool and peal. At this point I am usually so sick of beets that they end up on the dinner table and the rest I toss in the freezer to can later when one is mostly inside in the winter. Unless I am going to can outside to keep the heat out of the house, doing canning in the winter also helps to heat your house. I am also stingy with foil. I use the heavy duty kind and when you take it off, turn it over and wipe the inside down and set aside to dry and then put away for future use. This works better than the thin kind. It doesn't rip easily and I am usually able to get several uses out of it before it dies and goes to recycle.
Thanks! Been watching you guys for a couple of weeks after Danny and Wanda from Deep South Homestead recommended your videos. Just subbed :) I'm about to embark on canning our first ever beet harvest as well! Just wanted to add another great reason for removing your rings is food safety. If you happen to have a jar go bad from a weak seal, you will be able to know right away. Keeping the rings on can present a false seal. Blessings to your family from ours! Ps. I'm also a reformed ex-corporate girl (3 yrs now). Would never go back for anything!
Lol, Grace looks exactly like u!! I'm new to your channel but have been watching for a few weeks and learning so much. I have beets in my garden but have been putting off picking them because I didn't know what to do with them yet. I'm also going to can dilly beans tonight. Just watched that video also. Thanks for the great videos!!
If the skin doesn't just slip off it would help to cook longer. It always takes longer to cook than I think it should. Also, I don't cut off the stem end when peeling. If they are cooked long enough the stem end should slip off also. Doing all that peeling in a water filled sink is easier than with a cutting board. I was once where you are, learning how to do all this stuff. Keep up the good work!
I agree with The Neals' Homestead. I cook my beets until they are fork tender. I have no problem with skinning the beets then. Also I leave on several inches of the stem to help prevent the beets from bleeding out. I just do as my grandmother did as I was growing up. I agree with your daughter. I too think cooked beets smells like dirt. I do agree with you on what canning means. Keep up the hard work! Very cute video!
I agree that they should be tender when poked with the fork. However, I never put in cold water as it seems that the skins reset on to the beets. If you just put them in the sink, let cool on their own and when still warm (able to handle)cut the top and tail off the beets and the skins will simply slip off. Make a fist around the beet and push it out the top of the hand...the skinned beet squirts out of the fist. That many beets should take about 15 minutes max to skin out.
Absolutely! It's almost fun and takes a lot less time. Thankfully, I had a mother & grandmother who shared their skills & shortcuts, when I was quite young.
when you are canning and need to cool the vegetable down for pealing , I put a couple gallons of water in my frig. the night before it helps to cool better. I don't have a lot of Ice to use. Love watching you r channel,
You guys are so great, the only thing I can think of to help is to suggest wearing your beret, maybe even backwards, when you film in the evening with overhead lighting. The better to see you my dear:) Keep up the great work. We're using your work to help build our suburban 4-H club to give urban and suburban kids access to all of this and we are making you a regular part of the curriculum. We'll look for ways to say thanks with lots of likes and some purchases. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I have been following you since the pandemic and enjoy your current stuff very much. I am growing beets for the first time and needed to see the commitment it takes to process them. I bought 4 beets and followed along with this video. You made it fun, especially with your side comments and with your daughter. Thanks for teaching me something new. Now I am off to plant beets in my garden since you have taken away the fear of processing them.
Just a thought. we have always left 2 inches of the leaf end on in order to keep the color. They bleed badly in the boiling water. Really enjoying your program. I am just starting to can so I am learning from you. Thanks.
Heading out to the garden in just a bit - it appears we have a great crop this Spring. I'm so excited!! I'll be prepping and canning them all day today. Thanks for the refresher, Sarah! Yours looked so good.
You and your family are adorable. And smart (you do the math on everything! Very impressed!) I find your videos very centering, down to earth, straight forward, personable and you feel very relatable. Your family esprit de cors (team spirit) is very refreshing. You get down to work - which isn't work because you're doing the thing you love. Love youse guys!
Well done on the beets Sarah!! Also you leave it to cool down some so that the jars do not siphon (when you get a jar that was filled at the beginning and not when you get them out). Same thing goes with a water bath canner! We are doing the same thing as you and Kevin. Husband has retired and I am almost there... Been canning forever it seems... lol Keep up the great work! God Bless
I love to watch your videos. I grew up on a farm in Mississippi so I know how to do most of the things y'all do. I still have a good sized garden and can and freeze all the harvest. I do share a lot of produce with my son and daughter in law.
6+ years later, Oct 26th, 2023. Lol we have 6" of snow and still falling here in western ND. So, I'm canning fall harvest beets. 60lbs today. Total brain fart, on preasure canning method. Had to find this video. ❤
Glad to have found you!!! I live just west of St. Louis MO, so not too far. Just bought my first canner as I’m trying to figure eating clean and growing my own vegetables. I have the exact canner as you
Love your videos, Sarah. Just a hint, I pressure cook my beets, separated into sizes of course, works really quick and easy. Leave a little bit more stem to minimize bleed. I love fresh, frozen, and pickled beets yummmmmmy
Great video! I'm so excited. Bought my first pressure canner today. Gonna hit up the farmer's market this weekend and get busy canning. I'm just loving all of your videos! Thanks so much for sharing.
I'm just making it through some of you older videos and this was wonderful!! Do you make beet juice? If you do can you make a video about that? It is wonderful for high blood pressure and cleansing period. Great video!
I just got this same canner. You need to use a shelf between the two layers.. they come in groups o two on Amazon. I got the pressure canner for Christmas. Easy to use. This is the first time I pressure canner. Think consuming but. Simple.
This video may be almost 3 years old, but it answered a question I have been asking: Why do you store the jars without the rings? Well, now I know. Thanks Sarah.
Lehmans in ohio( they ship and are so worth it) have lids that they sell in a paper tube. I know this is an old one but still hope you get to read it. I bought one sleeve of wide mouth and one sleeve of regular mouth. I can't tell you how pleased I am with them.
Peeling is not fun, but eating the pickled beets is great. I cut mine in bite size for easier eating since I am the only one that loves to eat beets. Now I live in south Tx I can't seem to grow them anymore. So sad. Have a Wonderful & Blessed Day!
For the those who don't know, Ball is now selling lids that make your jars good for 18 month. I assume they have been out for awhile. I have just purchased mine for the first time in Australia. I haven't canned for awhile due to health reasons.
Not sure if you read these or not but I thought I could pass on some tips for your beet peeling. It takes only 5 seconds per beet even if your picky. Use a paper towel. Just hold the beet in a paper towel and rub. The skin comes off in a hurry. I just canned 8 pints of pickled beets. Took 10 minutes to to peel and cut and pack in the jars with the syrup and lids. There no need to cut off the root or top either. It just rubs right off. Best tip I ever got and hopefully your daughter would enjoy the beet peeling waaaaayyyy better.. lol
Adding to the good advice you got from The Neals' Homestead: If you cook them a bit longer, the peels will literally slip right off...easily. Crazy easily. They will still can fine. Also, if you leave about an inch to an inch and a half of the stems instead of cutting so close to the beetroot, they won't bleed nearly as badly. Beets are my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE from the garden. I have been canning, pickling, Harvarding them, julienne-ing them and just plain buttering them for over 50 years! Good job !

Kira S I have found almost no difference between them.
Kira S I have found almost no difference between them.
How long do they need to be pressure canned for?
Oh that's great thank you!
I like to can pickled beets! They are so good!!!!!!

"Smells like self-sustainability!!" I lovvvve it!!! 🤣🥰

You made me smile so much while interacting with your family (and the camera man!) !!!! Love you guys so much!! I wish we were neighbors so we could have coffee together and a few laughs!
Smells like self-sustainability, love your answer to your sweet daughter! 😂
Hey Sarah! I love canning beets. If you boil those for a bit longer the skins will slip off a lot easier. 😀
Thank you from Minnesota! I successfully canned 9 jars with your help.
What a fun video! Now that my beets are coming in, I searched for beet videos. Thank you soooooooo much from Maine
If you can keep the red water that you boiled the beets in and can with it as it has so many vitamins in it and it keeps the beets a beautiful color
This was a suggestion from a dear friend of mine. I now have beautiful beets as I use the water from cooking the beets, straining it through a cloth to keep it clear.
Could you take us to the pantry..I really love a pantry tour.. 🤗
ME, TOO!!!
I always peal when they are still very warm or but them back in the the pot
Privacy issue. But if you watch Kevin's video of "when the wife's away", you can see a little of it. Also video of this way worked for years too.
Thank you I am going to try canning for the 1st time ever!
Watching this video was very helpful & gave me some encouragement
I love the ending! It had me laughing, your so comfortable behind that camera. Such Great personalities
OMG going back and looking at some of your older videos and I just have to say that you are wonderful! I love how upbeat you always are. I look forward to watching all of your videos because you guys make me smile and I also learn so much. You are an inspiration!! Thank you!!!

What great mother daughter time. Your videos are my go to for info. Thank you
Thanks guys. Great job. Good info. God bless. Happy trails.
Thanks for your video
Going to be starting this week with beets , carrots and green beans 👍
outside, turkey fryer, 2 coolers one with ice water and one with water. leave the mess out side. I even use the slicer to slice the beets into bowl outside. clean up is a snap and no staining.
We had neighbors who had a "summer kitchen" outside and it was the best. Heat, mess, stains all stayed outside. Really a good idea.
outside with a turkey fry for sure
Hey Sarah I know that this video is old but I just found you guy's. I saw other but they just don't make me feel as if I learning from my friend and sometimes I can even watch them the confidence level isn't there. So don't stop teaching those of us who need instructions. You guy's are great. Thanks praying for you and your family
Sarah you're so funny! You made me laugh in this video! Love it!
Haven’t watched this video since it was first published but sure enjoyed Sarah’s playful side and seeing Grace 🥰🇨🇦.
One of your best videos, you were so bubbly and happy ,had your child involved and your husband, great job
Sarah, Hello! I love ur teaching on canning, but what touches my heart most, is the true emission of love to another! U guys r awesome!!! Thank u
I’m canning this way and I’m also going to try fermenting some, and pickling some.
We used to eat the beat greens when I was little. Loved them cooked like swiss chard with some garlic and a little butter...
also, there are a lot of nutrients in the water. you may want to cool it down and put it in the compost.
Or can those for greens. Love you guys.
I really love how you guys not only share how to grow the vegetables, but also what to do with them! My husband loves beets and we have a beautiful harvest of "peppermint beets" you know, the ones that look like candy canes inside?

I agree, roasting is the way to go!
I roast mine too.
Does cooking them and then pressure canning them make them super soft or mushy?
Thanks! Been watching you guys for a couple of weeks after Danny and Wanda from Deep South Homestead recommended your videos.

We always leave nearly 3 inches of stem on the beets or they will "bleed" out and your beets will be pink after canning.
Absolutely! It's almost fun and takes a lot less time. Thankfully, I had a mother & grandmother who shared their skills & shortcuts, when I was quite young.
Sarah, I love your sense of humor! LOL!
I remember as a kid my grandmother had stations. Everyone got a station and that was how things got done😊
Mason jars are awesome.... I found a old mason jar called a mason special.... the glass is really thick.... I love them
How sweet your girl. She looks so much like you. Thank you for the video.
Just ordered a electric peeler can’t wait to use it sense it can be used for all kinds of vegetables this will come in handy for canning
I absolutely love your enthusiasm and those dimples. Love all of your videos. God bless you and yours!!
I loved the " Self Sustainability" part. Cracked me up. That would be me!! Beets also bring down your blood pressure. Good for You!!
I used a spoon to take off skins or back of a knife worked pretty well.
Beautiful I love beet pickles too
Hi Good Show , Im 72 and my mother back in the olden days peeled bushels of beets with a crank apple peeler, give it a try .
when you are canning and need to cool the vegetable down for pealing , I put a couple gallons of water in my frig. the night before it helps to cool better. I don't have a lot of Ice to use. Love watching you r channel,
I got mine from LEHMANS ( lids). Also for peeling I used an oyster knife and it was easy!💕
Yellow cleaning gloves work really good peeling beets the finger tips on the gloves have grooves that help you peel the beets works every time
Smells like a fabulous deli treat. Lol. U go girl
We sure love your channel! We have learned so much from you guys! Thanks so much for helping us be more self sufficient and provide for our family!
You and your family are awesome thank you
Good job I just finished mine 👍
You guys are so great, the only thing I can think of to help is to suggest wearing your beret, maybe even backwards, when you film in the evening with overhead lighting.

I love the vibrant colors of your processed foods. Sometimes they have a discolored effect.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you. Watching older videos I missed.
Just a thought. we have always left 2 inches of the leaf end on in order to keep the color. They bleed badly in the boiling water. Really enjoying your program. I am just starting to can so I am learning from you. Thanks.
Canning my first batch of beets today. Thank you for posting. Very thorough instructions. Wish me luck.
Oh my was having a not so good day, but I laughed so much watching your video I feel so much better ty
Heading out to the garden in just a bit - it appears we have a great crop this Spring. I'm so excited!! I'll be prepping and canning them all day today. Thanks for the refresher, Sarah! Yours looked so good.
You and your family are adorable. And smart (you do the math on everything! Very impressed!) I find your videos very centering, down to earth, straight forward, personable and you feel very relatable. Your family esprit de cors (team spirit) is very refreshing. You get down to work - which isn't work because you're doing the thing you love. Love youse guys!
I love your statement about embracing the beet peeling moment. Is it fun? Probably not, but it will be worth it! Great attitude!
Well done on the beets Sarah!! Also you leave it to cool down some so that the jars do not siphon (when you get a jar that was filled at the beginning and not when you get them out). Same thing goes with a water bath canner! We are doing the same thing as you and Kevin. Husband has retired and I am almost there... Been canning forever it seems... lol Keep up the great work!
God Bless
You have such a great TH-cam personality I just love watching your videos....So bubbly and personable. I can watch you all day
And I do watch you all day. Trying to see all the videos, so that I am in the present time. I just caught on last week...
I love to watch your videos. I grew up on a farm in Mississippi so I know how to do most of the things y'all do. I still have a good sized garden and can and freeze all the harvest. I do share a lot of produce with my son and daughter in law.
6+ years later, Oct 26th, 2023. Lol we have 6" of snow and still falling here in western ND. So, I'm canning fall harvest beets. 60lbs today. Total brain fart, on preasure canning method. Had to find this video. ❤
Awesome video Thank you
I am glad I found your videos. You made things so simple and easy to follow. This will be my first year canning and I am looking forward to it.
Glad to have found you!!! I live just west of St. Louis MO, so not too far. Just bought my first canner as I’m trying to figure eating clean and growing my own vegetables. I have the exact canner as you
Amazing, your daughter looks exactly like you. Thank you for all of your videos.
Love your videos, Sarah. Just a hint, I pressure cook my beets, separated into sizes of course, works really quick and easy. Leave a little bit more stem to minimize bleed. I love fresh, frozen, and pickled beets yummmmmmy
Yum yum! I love beets! Those are beautiful!
Dealy-Bopper, Thing-a Ma-Jig...
I love it! I say things like that all the time! 😁😁😁
I just got 75lbs of beets from a friend today. I'll be here for a week canning lol
They are beautiful !!
You could try scraping with a spoon or butterknife. Or a potato scrubber or potato peeler .scraping with a spoon is my way .
Great video! I'm so excited. Bought my first pressure canner today. Gonna hit up the farmer's market this weekend and get busy canning. I'm just loving all of your videos! Thanks so much for sharing.
Lu_Just lu.. I'm waiting on mine to get here I am so excited 💜
Thank you so much for going over this. I'm planning on canning a lot of these this year! Excellent video friend.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm also planning to can a lot this year. I love it!~ Sarah
I'm just making it through some of you older videos and this was wonderful!! Do you make beet juice? If you do can you make a video about that? It is wonderful for high blood pressure and cleansing period. Great video!
Really enjoy your videos, searched yesterday how to can beets. Thank you for your help I am doing a bushel which I was able to get 21 quarts.
I just got this same canner. You need to use a shelf between the two layers.. they come in groups o two on Amazon. I got the pressure canner for Christmas. Easy to use. This is the first time I pressure canner. Think consuming but. Simple.
do you make beet pickles? i love beet pickles but i also love the beets plain.
beautiful project
Your beets are beautiful! I really enjoy your videos!
This video may be almost 3 years old, but it answered a question I have been asking: Why do you store the jars without the rings? Well, now I know. Thanks Sarah.
I love watching your videos!!!
Loved the video!
I love beets
I love the earthy smell of beets and of course the taste. I would definitely have tasted a few before they got to the jars lol
Looks beautiful...I make mine pickled tho!!!
Thank you for the tip on Walmart lids. I was thinking of buying them.
LOL...so funny. Love all your videos. Great personalities. 😊
Lehmans in ohio( they ship and are so worth it) have lids that they sell in a paper tube. I know this is an old one but still hope you get to read it. I bought one sleeve of wide mouth and one sleeve of regular mouth. I can't tell you how pleased I am with them.
Peeling is not fun, but eating the pickled beets is great. I cut mine in bite size for easier eating since I am the only one that loves to eat beets. Now I live in south Tx I can't seem to grow them anymore. So sad. Have a Wonderful & Blessed Day!
For the those who don't know, Ball is now selling lids that make your jars good for 18 month. I assume they have been out for awhile. I have just purchased mine for the first time in Australia. I haven't canned for awhile due to health reasons.
Not sure if you read these or not but I thought I could pass on some tips for your beet peeling. It takes only 5 seconds per beet even if your picky. Use a paper towel. Just hold the beet in a paper towel and rub. The skin comes off in a hurry. I just canned 8 pints of pickled beets. Took 10 minutes to to peel and cut and pack in the jars with the syrup and lids. There no need to cut off the root or top either. It just rubs right off.
Best tip I ever got and hopefully your daughter would enjoy the beet peeling waaaaayyyy better.. lol
