Love really good peaches!! And peaches with cottage cheese was (and IS) a family favorite as long as I can remember!! I wanted to can a bushel last year for my daughter's family & myself, but they were $100/bushel!! Praying for better this year! God bless!
I had to reread your comment... $100 a bushel? Oh my... I'd have to pass even though I love peaches. The Georgia peaches, if found, are going to be expensive this season because of losing so much of their crop. Colorado peaches are doing well so far. Those should be available to us in about 5 or 6 weeks so I may get a couple of lugs of those. Although those were $45 a lug last year and they spoiled quickly. I'd like to dehydrate some of those because that makes a good snack. Enjoy your evening. God bless. 😊💜
Hi Becky. I bet they were delicious! I realize there's a shortage of the Georgia peaches right now, but it sounds like the Colorado peaches are doing well! Those will become available to us in about 5 or 6 weeks. 😊
Oh my Mickey, those peaches look wonderful. I had never thought about cutting the peach first before taking the skin off! Thanks for the tip!! You do such wonderful videos! Thanks for sharing this, Mickey……. 👩🍳
Hi Sandi. Thank you! Hubby likes to take good care of the yard, but with the drought it's become a challenge. Plus we live on a dead end road out in the county. 😂 That's ok. I appreciate every minute he puts into it! Oh, I tan extremely easy and that's just from working out in the yard here and there. I enjoyed the church anniversary picnic today with many energetic young children squealing and having fun. I'm getting too old for that. Sensory overload to my ears. 🙃 But I had a nice time. Looks like we might get some rain tonight or tomorrow so I'm excited about that! Ok, that sounds pretty bad when a person is excited that it might rain. You have a blessed rest of the weekend! 😊
I will start canning my peaches this week, I need to take a trip to my local farmers market. I will let you know how it turns out.this will be my first attempt at canning peaches. Thank you for passing on the knowledge.
You must be getting more rain in northern Minnesota than we are getting in southeastern Minnesota, your grass looks so green Great video. I have never tried pealing my peaches the second way you showed us. I will try that this year
Hi Carol. Actually this is an older video. We have had rain and storms come right at us almost the past 2 months and then skirt around us or fizzle out into nothing. I just came from town only 8 miles away and we had a flash flood there! You couldn't see the sidewalks or road because they were filling up so fast. I got home and saw our dirt road was wet and I got excited. Then I looked at the rain gauge. We got 1/4" of rain. I'll take it but we need lots more than that! 😊
Hi happy2cya. I hear the Georgia crop is hurting bad this season because winter was too warm, the peach trees bloomed early, and then you had cold weather (frost?) and modt of the blossoms dropped leaving the orchards with only a handful of peaches. 🥺 I'll be watching for the Colorado peaches in about 5 to 6 weeks, but the price will let me know if I'm getting more or not. I really wanted to dehydrate some for snacks. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor I don't know about too warm. We and neighbors had frozen pipes burst. It was a COLD winter here. I did hear we may have a bad year. I'm not sure where the grocery store will be getting peaches, but I'll have to look for sales. We also have Lane's orchard not to far from us. I've never dehydrated them. I'd love to try freeze drying some, when I save up enough for a freeze dryer.
Munkey, your name is Mark?! So what do you prefer me calling you? I'd like to be respectful of you (even though I have fun giving you a hard time here and there). 🤭 Anyway, thank you on the garden. My husband takes very good care of the yard and flower gardens. I appreciate the time and effort he puts into them. Although, being in a drought it is making it tough. Fortunately we got a small amount of rain the past 2 days and I'll take every drop we get! 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor Munkey is fine, thats the nic-name My twin bro gave me when we where very young, as for ur hubby get him here, My garden is growing like a jungle atm, 😂😂😂😂
Question, I've gotten quite a few harder than usual muskmelons this year and while they taste fine, they're not really pleasant to eat. I wondered if the could be water bath canned?
Hi Tammy. That's an interesting scenario! Hard, but tastes good. If that's the case I don't see why you wouldn't be able to can them in chunks like the peaches. Normally melon isn't canned this way because it would get really mushy being they are softer when ripe. Melons are made into preserves and chutneys so it isn't like you can't can melon. If you give this a try, I'd love to hear your results! 😊
I've never heard of peaches on pork chops. I love both, I'll have to try it. Do you just put them on top or is it more like you make something out of it like a salsa?
Hi Lisa. Making a salsa from fresh peaches would be fantastic on top of pork chops or chicken or fish! 🤣 Just before my pork chops are done, I'll place a couple of pieces of the canned peaches on them. A little bit of a sweet treat. I don't eat my chops like that every time though. 😊
@lisapop5219 - Just a thought to pass along... I've also made what my grandma would have called peach "sauce" from my canned peaches before and used it to baste a ham with. I used to do it quite a bit, but I remember using a jar of spiced peaches instead of plain at least once, & it was a really nice taste. Just something a little different from using pineapple. If I were to try that today, I'd use my plain peaches, with some cinnamon, nutmeg & brown sugar mixed in when I blend it up with my stick blender. (Saving a jar of actual spiced peaches for the holidays 😉) I can see putting that same thing on a pork roast or chops, too. Maybe brush it on a few minutes before taking it/them off the grill.... hmmm.... it IS the weekend....🤔🤔😁 God bless you & yours 🙏🙏🙏
@OuttheBackDoor If the peaches are canned by using your recipe; can you guide on how to either make them into a pie filling or a cobbler? Thank you in advance.
@@mom2flower163 Hi mom2flower. When I want to use them in baking, I drain them (save the juice to drink!) and use them as if you cut up a fresh peach for your recipe. I hope that helps. 😊
I don't blanch mine at all. I score the peach with about 5 or 6 slice lines and the skin comes off way better BUT the fruit is a bit more ripe then the firm yet ready to each peaches.

@@Mivka_ Hi Mivka. I've done BIG batches and the oldest quart jars of peaches were 7 years old and they were still good tasting. They darkened in color a bit, but otherwise they were good! 😊
Becky, when it gets really hot out, I don't can indoors. I'm not heating up the kitchen anymore than I have to. Many times I'll can in the garage or right outside of it. I've got 5 propane burners and a couple of tables I set up to make myself an outdoor kitchen. I'm trying to find an old gas range to hook up in the garage so I can bake out there too when it's really hot out. The only time I'm really concerned about jars breaking is when the outside temp is closer to 40 degrees or cooler and I'm canning huge batches out there. I have no idea how the channels in Alaska can outdoors in the winter! I'd really be nervous about breaking jars! When it's windy here and I'm canning outside, I gently lay a big towel over the jars to cool down and they've been fine. The wind has really picked up big time this evening, so I'm expecting some weather to blow in our way. We can definitely use the rain!
Hi Iamthelightoftheworld. If you're processing for more than 10 minutes, it's not necessary to sterilize the jars. I do make sure they are very clean though. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor hi my peach today blow up. What the reason for that? I thought its because i didn't sterilized the jars. I boiled it for like 50 minutes though
Two things may have happened. If you didn't de-bubble your jars or you didn't leave enough headspace. Also, did you mean you water bath canned the peaches for 50 minutes? Quarts only need to process 25 to 30 minutes.
I've watched a few canned peach videos and the difference between times is vast. The Mennonite only can them for 5 minutes and in this video 25 minutes is recommended. So confused!
Hi chrys. The time I use came from one of my older Ball Blue Books of canning. I'm not sure about the Mennonite time. The shortest period of time I WB can anything is 10 minutes and that's when I'm doing preserves. I do use the open kettle method of preserving when making pickles. 😊
