Canning Louisiana Red Beans With Sausage And Bacon ~ A Discussion On Safety and Guidelines
What is the difference with a steam bath compared to a water bath?
Hi do you think I can use smoked turkey meat instead of ham?
Hi, I wouldn’t bc I’m not aware of any tested recipe that uses smoked turkey
Is this a pourable sauce? Can I use strawberries instead?
This sauce is thick but pourable when heated. I’ve never tried strawberries
New subscriber here from Central Valley of California
I bought litmus test kit. It tells you exactly how acidic your recipe is. To safely water bath can tomatoes and tomato based recipes your acid level must be below 4.6. I add acid until my recipe is no higher than 4.3.
FYI doing this is not recommended
Thanks
Omg, im making these soon. So cheap and easy!
I have this book and I did make this recipe, the portions were exactly right. They are pressure canning now. I can’t wait to try it when it’s done. 🤗
Another great recipe to make and have on my shelf, thank you!!
In 2022 I made my very first batch of cowboy candy. I was not really big on jalapenos so I gave away all but 1 jar in gift baskets for Christmas. Everyone loved it and asked if I had more. I opened the one jar I had left in May for some sheet pan nachos I was making for friends. I tried the cowboy candy and could not get enough of it! It was so good! When my garden started coming in I had a couple of jalapeno plants and was going to make more but could not find the recipe. I do believe this video is the recipe I followed. I have 12 plants that are absolutely loaded with jalapenos so I am going to use this recipe and make as much as I can, thanks for sharing!!!!!!
M husbands favourite! Thank you
Hi Carol. Have been following your channel a long while and so enjoy your safe canning practices and the recipes. I have a question...my best friend and I have heard along the line that for some reason we are to can the mixture of soup maybe with the time belonging to the veggie that takes longer. Can you clarify please and thank you much. Many blessings on you!
It used to be done that way but That is no longer the recommendation.
I knew you would have the answer, thank you so much!❤
My daughter loves pickled red onions. Thanks for sharing!
Carol did you heat your jars up in the steamer. I have the same pot and I’m a little confused when it comes to the steam canning.
It doesn’t matter how you heat them as long as they are hot but you can hear them in your canner
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thank you!
I made this last year and used it in my ham and green beans and it was sooooo amazing the depth of flavor!
Yum
Gorgeous eyes 😍
THANK YOU! This is the first Simplied Clearly for canning non acid veggies!
Looks good!
What are some ways or recipes for using the canned herbed chicken?
Chicken salad, mixed in a casserole, use to make a hot dip like buffalo chicken dip, etc
I made this syrup with some strawberries I picked. Wish I could have made more but strawberries were so expensive this year. 🙁. It’s so pretty in the jars and I’m anxious to put some in lemonade and a margarita!
I am going to do half white and half red... we eat so many onions in this house. Thank you
You can choose steam canning instead of water bath only if the processing time is 45 minutes or less.
That is correct which is true of most water bath canning recipes
Your written recipe in the description box does not state water. Just wanted to let you know.
I missed that… thank you 😊
Thank you wow i love it. ❤️
I am new to your channel. Thank you. Wishing you all the best. ❤
How much beans and sauce do you use for the pints?
Awesome
Really good with goat cheese ❤
I am using this recipe for bread and butter pickles. Do I go by the written measurements since the video uses different measurements for the vinegar and sugar? I am excited to add these to my pantry as our garden is quickly producing a good amount of cucumbers. Thanks for all your videos, and I love watching your channel.
Go by the written. I misspoke during filming, my apologies
You just showed up in my feed. Only a few minutes in, and i love you talking safety. I just don't get why anyone would rebel can.
Do you find that your final product stays crisper when using steam as opposed to water bath?
Maybe a little
Love sweet and sour pickled onions. I need to make these.
Thank you for all the added advice. I've made a lot of jams and jellies but always with pectin. I just ordered a candy thermamitor. Wish me luck. I think my family will love this one.
As a side note, I did do a few test runs a few years ago, using only beans, canning salt, and water and my beans came out of the canner with about 15% water on the top of jar. That settled down over a few weeks and the beans continued to absorb water until there wasnt really any left. It was a thick. When I opened a jar, the beans were mushy. I would really love it if a canning expert like you can test run canning beans with calcium chloride and show us the results. Elizabeth M.
Carol I have been looking for information about all the different ways I could keep my pickled onions crisp instead of mushy. They are good the first day or 2, but after that they tend to slowly turn too soft. There is a product called Ball Pickle Crisp Granules and also Mrs. Wages Xtra Crisp or something like that. It is calcium chloride. This product also works on vegetables, dilly beans, giardineria, etc and I have also heard it is an ingredient in commercially canned beans such as navy, great northern, cannellini, small red, red kidney, pinto, black beans, etc and is used to help the beans hold their shape under pressure canning. I wonder if you could experiment for us and post the video and results on your UA-cam channel? Try Pinto beans first. 1/4 teaspoon of calcium chloride per quart jar of beans to be canned, 1/8 teaspoon per pint of beans to be canned. I would love to see any other results you find for other vegetables as well. Elizabeth M.
Did you watch the video?? I demonstrated using pickle crisp in the video …
I am guilty of not watching this one because I looked at the recipe which didnt show pickle crisp, but i have watched many of your other videos!😊
Have you ever added bacon and maple syrup
About 6 months again I had these onions on a sandwich in a deli in Pittsburgh and fell in love! Now I can make them myself! THANK YOU!!!
Thank you! Can’t wait to try these! And I love the new cookbook suggestion. Already ordered it from the last video!
My husband got me a steam canner for Christmas I'm so excited to use it !! I'm confused on what zone I should use .help please and thank you in advance!
Refer to your manual as it explains it and you need to know your altitude
The onions look good, I’ve been eyeing that recipe for a while and I really need to invest in a steam canner.
Yes, you need a steam canner! After watching Carol canning with ease using hers, I bought one. It’s a game changer!
Thank you…sure have missed you! Hope you are doing well!
Looks great!
Thank you, I love your videos.
They look delicious!! I must try these. Thank you Carol! 😁
I’m going to have to try this. Small batch will be perfect!
I have missed your videos so much! Good to see you... and I can't wait to try this one. :)
Thanks Carole, can't wait to try this recipe!
Im so excited to make these in pint jars. I just love your videos. So organized!
Oooh, I really like pickled red onions, so I'm excited to see a video for a shelf stable recipe. Thanks, Carol. ❤
