My arm was hurting watching you. That’s a true labor of love.❤️
Oh my goodness... LOL Yes, my arms and shoulders had more strength in them when I did this video compared to now. It takes me a bit longer to do manual tasks like that now and I guess it's my exercise for the day. :)
Watching and wishing I had smell-a-vision! 😂
🍋💛🍋💛🍋
How about "slurpovision!" 🤣
@@OuttheBackDoor 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, Mickie, I didn't know your mama was here with us in NC! I know she enjoyed the lemon curd! It's on my plan for canning soon!
She was living in NC. She lives in MN near me and my sister now. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor What a blessing! I miss my mama. She's been with the Lord seven years now. I was blessed to never live more than 20 minutes away from her.
Enjoy your day! I'm about to get busy in the kitchen so I can rest tomorrow.
Such a helpful video, packed with information! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thank you, Marilyn. I'm glad this was helpful and I appreciate you watching! 😊
Loved loved your instruction. So easy to understand. Thank you so much.
Hi Mirada. I'm glad this was helpful! Thank you for watching. 😊
You are after my heart today. I LOVE anything lemon. Also love angel food cake. Let's all make 2023 a great year. God bless my friend.
Amen, Carlene! I'm with you on that! 😊💗
Meeeeee toooooo!!!
Can you make lemonade from the juice you canned? The lemon curd sounds amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Linda. Yes, I use my canned juice to make a quick and delicious lemonade. 😊
Wow, it seems every time I do a search to see if I can make and actually can something, YOUR channel pops up! I'm a fairly new subscriber, so I haven't seen all your content, but I LOVE your channel!!! I plan on making lemon curd (for the 1st time), and now can it!!! I buy lemon curd all the time, but the price has gotten out of control! I love it on toast.
Oh, and BTW, I also have several of your boil-a-bag omelets in my freezer. Makes a great, easy breakfast!
Thank you so much, ma'am!
Hi Judy. I'm glad the channel has been helpful to you and _I appreciate you watching and joining me on my journey._ I love lemon curd on toast or english muffins also! I use it as a filling in turnovers, on angel food cake, or straight out of the jar! 😂 I'm always on the lookout for lemons on sale to make more. 😊
Fantastic video! Easy to understand and easy to remember. Canning the juice is a huge money and time saver esp when lemons are out of season.
Hi Sadie Girl. I've always got canned lemon juice in the pantry. I may not have lemons to zest, but I still make the lemon curd with the canned lemon juice. I give it a "bump" with a few drops of lemon essential oil when I don't have lemons to zest. Happy canning and have a blessed weekend. Mickey 😊
Yes, I have a great resource for huge tangelos and oranges here in Southern AZ. I can put up gallons and gallons! So blessed, it’s wonderful. Bless you and yours, as well!
Yummy. Have never seen this ! Gonna do it
Hi Sharon. It IS yummy!!! 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor its gotta be! Its lemon !!!
don't waste your peels freeze them for later if you don't have time right away, can make candied peel or even lemon marmalade out of them which is also divine
Thanks for sharing Tickity Boo. 😊
Beautiful 🍋 curd... absolutely Beautiful
Hi April. Thank you! 😊
I just bought a large bag of lemons and typically freeze lemon juice in itty bitty containers and place them in little trays in my freezer. They work out great but take up so much room. I'm going to defrost them and can them! Thank you for that tip. I loved your easy to follow instructions on making lemon curd and can't wait to steamcan some! My mouth is watering think about it! Thank you.
Hi Norma. Thank you for watching and I'm glad this was helpful. My mouth waters every time I anticipate opening a jar of the lemon curd! 😊
How wonderful! Lemon Curd!! You certainly have a lot of energy and enthusiasm with all these wonderful canning videos. I really appreciate all these great recipes! 👩🍳
Hi Debi. Thank you! I guess my passion for preserving foods shows? 😊
Thank you, I love everything lemon 🍋
Hi Susie. I love lemon, too! More than chocolate! 🤭
Hey Mickey....this is one of my favorite foods of all time. Hopefully my lemon tree did not freeze during this extended freeze we had in December 2022.
Thank you for this recipe and demonstration.
Also, I know you are having to re-upload your videos, links, etc. Please feel free to skip replying to my comments if that will save you a bit of time. Jesus bless ya my friend.
Hi Sandra. I HOPE you're lemon tree made it through the freeze! 🍋
And any comments you leave, I'm glad to respond to! ANY and ALL interaction on the channel boosts the channel in the analytics rating and is greatly appreciated! Thumbs up, shares, comments, minutes watched on the videos all help promote the channel. Even if you've watched the video before when they were up, if you would be so kind let the video play all the way through as you go about your chores, (you don't need to be actually watching) that would be wonderful. YT doesn't know I'm reloading videos. It thinks this is all new content, so for them to push my content out to a larger audience, there needs to be interaction happening. I'm sorry if I sound like I'm pleading, but I somewhat am. My numbers and ratings have really slid, and maybe it's God's way of cleaning house, that's fine! But I don't mind answering comments! God bless you! 😊💗
@@OuttheBackDoor Thank you Mickey for explaining that. I wasn't really sure how RUclips works as far as pushing out your videos to greater audiences. I didn't have time to watch the whole lemon curd video this morning but definitely will be doing so soon since I want to grab some lemons and make curd from them.
When you find quality videos that are well researched and presented as well as yours are, I really want others to find them.
And usually when I start to implement one of your procedures I'll view it a few times...lol.
Now I do have a habit of watching a video right up to almost the end and I'll stop it so I can read through the comments to see if there is more to learn from other viewers. Since I didn't 100% complete the view....does that not count as a complete view....say I stop it at about 99%?
Thanks for your help and I'll do all I can to keep your ratings growing. Love ya buddy.
It's the minutes watched that are counted. Even if you only watch for 5 minutes, that's counted. The more minutes watched, the more they push it out. 😉 Do you have Myer lemons?
@@OuttheBackDoor I am close to the Gulf Coast here in Texas and can grow citrus but have to really watch some of the freezes. A friend keeps her citrus in containers and rolls them into the garage during freezes. They produce abundantly. I would like to build a little building specifically for that....I believe it would be easier than trying to wrap and bundle them.
I have Meyer lemon, Cara Cara Orange, key lime, mandarine orange, and kumquat. A few years ago I lost all the citrus I had...all I just named plus grapefruit, lisbon lemon and tangerine orange....only the kumquat survived. They are pretty tough and although lots of folks do not care for them, their juice and jelly is awesome.
Ok....I'm learning on the youtube thing. I think it really helps to push out the videos that are quality. When I first started watching there were some lou lou presenters with very poor information. So to help viewers get quality information like yours...I'll do all I can, Mickey. Jesus bless.
@@sandrarichardson2713 You have no idea how I was drooling while I read of all your luscious fruits you grow! We lost all of our blossoms on the fruit trees 2 springs ago. It dropped down into the 20's 2 mornings in a row and froze all the blossoms. People everywhere lost their gardens because this was the end of May! I wonder if I could grown a Meyer lemon in the house??? And I adore key limes too! I appreciate your help on "promoting" the channel. That goes for all channels! Sometimes I just listen to someone's video while I'm working in the kitchen. If I like it, I save it and give them a thumbs up. Sometimes I'll comment if something really strikes me. But they have also gotten minutes watched by me just listening. All of it adds up and helps. We also get paid for allowing ads to run on our videos. I realize most viewers don't care to watch them, me included, but it's supporting the channel in another way. I'm far from making this a full time job and being able to live off the income, but every little bit helps and I'll get there some day, God willing - not mine. So, from all of us creators on YT, I thank you Sandra for all you do for us! God bless you my friend. Mickey
Lemon is my favorite. Thanks for the video.
Hi Honeysuckle Lane Homestead. I love lemon as well! Thank you for watching. 😊
I just made my first lemon curd today. It was delicious. I’m in NC. My home state.
Hi VictorianEdge. Wonderful! 🍋 I'm glad you're enjoying it! I could open a jar and dig in with a spoon. 🤭😊
You can put your lemon peels in pot of water turn on low bring to slow boil this makes you house smell great .
Hi Lorra. Thanks for sharing your tip! 😊
That looks so delicious. Lemon is one of my favorite flavors.😊 I would absolutely use that curd for a Lemon Meringue pie or in a Trifle. It's a little disappointing that the shelf life is so short...
Pamela, the canning book said it would only last 6 months for a shelf life. I think they said that because we would have eaten all by then! 🤣 No, seriously, I've had lemon curd in the pantry up to 2 years and it was good!
🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋 my fav, putting on my to try list. Thanks for sharing and explaining the steaming process. 🙏💞from Arkansas
Hi Tina. I love lemon, too! 🍋 Thank you for watching. 😊
Yummy!!!!!!!
Hi Donna. It's delicious! 🤭😊
RockStar! I love your informative videos.
Thank you for always sharing.
Hi N Packer. Thank you. Hey, I found the link for the nut grinder. amzn.to/3W5iGjn
Oh yum! Lemon is my favorite flavor!! I have never had lemon curd before, but it sounds and looks delightful! I couldn't bring myself to tossing the peels from your juice portion. I would have scraped out the membrane from each of the lemons, sliced them up and boiled them to get rid of the bitterness of the pith before adding sugar and making candied lemon peel. Now I'm going to be thinking about lemon goodness all day! :)
Hi Sew and Tell. Love your name! Several people said they were going to make candied lemon peel. I suppose I could have made lemon extract from them. It's been a while since I made this video and I'm waiting for lemons to go on sale again. Lemon curd is addicting in our household! I also smear this on homemade toasted sourdough bagels for breakfast. I hope you give it a try! 😊
Great timing, thank you! I have 3 lemon trees that are loaded, and my chickens are laying again... time to get busy. Lemon curd is fantastic to just eat by the spoonful... I suppose a lemon meringue pie would be appropriate.
Hi VagabondAnne. Oh color my green! Perfect timing is right and you have your own lemon trees?! Wonderful! Besides pie or eating it straight out of the jar, I use it to make turnovers, on English muffins, on cake, on pancakes & waffles, and with ice cream. I find any excuse to eat it. 🤭😊
lemon curd macaroons are my absolute favorite thing so im glad this recipe will be hitting my shelves for sure!
Hi Sean. Oh my goodness! Now my mouth is REALLY watering! 😊
Looks good! In Australia we call it Lemon Butter 🍋 I love smearing a little on chicken once it’s cooked and on my plate 🍗😋
I Sandra. I'm a tiny bit confused. You smear a beautiful sweet lemon curd on your chicken? Who would have thought? Although I'd smear Vegemite on my chicken. Or toast. Or a spoonful right out of the jar. 🤭 ok, I'm a little odd. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor yes I love lemon butter on chicken. I’ve never thought to put vegemite on chicken lol …I do love vegemite 😋
Many years ago, I'm talking maybe 30 years?, I had a quilting friend in Australia and we would swap fabrics sometimes. Well one time she sent me a very small jar of Vegemite to try and I loved it! Now I order it through Amazon. BTW, I'm in the USA. 😉
@@OuttheBackDoor that’s awesome. You are one of very few Americans I’ve heard of that like vegemite 😃 I lived in Texas for six years and failed to convince any of my family or friends there that it tastes really good 👍🏼 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 My neighbor at the end of our road LOVES it so I usually order 4 jars at a time and give him one. So you living in TX now and not Australia?
Love lemon curd! Maybe peel the outer rind and then blend it up to make it go quicker? Would you mind posting the doubled recipe in the description or comments? Brilliant way to steam can!
Hi Amy. I love lemon anything... better than chocolate! 🤭 To me it would be much faster using a zest peeler or grater. You don't want any of the white of the peel in it because it will leave a bitter taste. Steam canning with my PC has taken over WB canning for me because I always can in large amounts. I can double and triple stack in my large PC and use a small amount of water. It doesn't mean you can't WB can the lemon curd though. 😊
Very good video!
Hi Connie. Thank you, and I appreciate you watching! 😊
It looks very good!
Hi GoWest. Thank you. 😊
It looks delicious!! Never seen this so I’m gonna try it .. Thank you
Hi Pamela. I really enjoy it. Maybe a bit too much. Enjoy! 😊
Love this! I have made lemon curd multiple times, but never have canned it.
Hi Tia. I love having this in the pantry! I use it on cake, toast & English muffins, pancakes, turnovers, thumb print cookie filling, and straight out of the jar and into my mouth! I'm sure I forgot a few other ways I use it but that's why I can it. 😊
I make loads of lemon curd. I use my food processor to whisk it all together. Always use the microwave. To cook. It’s silky smooth. Takes max 15 minutes and is so smooth. I mainly use it with home made Greek yogurt made in the Instant pot
Delicious and so much easier. For me it s the best
Hi Jillian. Sounds like you have a few gadgets to make life easier for you. Good for you! 👍 I try to keep things simple around here. Plus, if I lose power, I'm still able to cook, bake, and can with what I have on hand. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor I love how you have the patience to make this by hand. We live in South Africa, so we often have no power because of load shedding. It’s a challenge ! I feel your pain and would live to taste your goodies. You certainly know what you are doing. Thanks for sharing. I’ve only got into food preservation recently. And I don’t need to store food. We live very close to our shopping centre.
Well if you're shipping... I only live one state over in Virginia I take one too. 🤣 I'm looking forward to trying this!
Hi Lighthousefan. So am I shipping you a jar or are you making it? 🤣 If you're in Virginia, I think you've more than one state over. 😉🤭
@@OuttheBackDoor Sorry I was talking about being one state over from your Mom in North Carolina. Since I need to make mine with Allulose to keep it low carb I'll have to do the canning myself.😊
It's getting late and I'm not praying attention very well! 🤭
These are the bowl sets I keep asking about. Do you remember where you got them?
@outthebackdoor
@@jeanninemcwhorter919 Jeannine, if you're referring to the yellow colored nesting bowls, I got those at Walmart years ago.
Use those peels to make lemon vinegar household cleaner.
Hi Katie Lin. Good suggestion! I generally use orange 🍊 peels for that, myself. 😊
Thanks for your wonderful video I would like to know where I can find that canning cooker please ❤
Hi Bev. My pressure cooker/canners are All American and made in Wisconsin. They are cast aluminum and I love them! I've got 3 sizes; A921 (the one in this video), A930, and A941 (I use the majority of the time for big batches). Look up All American pressure canners or go directly to their site and you'll be able to see all that are available. I know last year there was a backorder on almost all of them. I hope this helps. 😊
Thank for the information and I can't wait to see what's next cheers Bev from Perth Western Australia 🦘🦘🦘
@@bevmills4116 Well G'day! I live in the States 🇺🇲 and that's where the pressure canner is made. You may be able to find one to ship to you but I know it's going to be extremely expensive! 😊
Hello! Just found your site about a week ago. You have answered a lot of questions I had about canning dairy products. Thank you! Now, another question; my husband and I are on Keto, with great results. We’d love to have lemon curd on hand, curious as to whether you’ve ever tried canning with allulose. It’s great to bake with, but I’ve had trouble finding anyone who cans with it. Do you or do you know anyone? Looking forward to more of your great videos. Thanks again !
Hi Green Eyes. Kudos on the Keto! I have never used allulose. If you're able to use it in equal amounts or close to as sugar, I'm (guessing) it should work in canning. Since you aren't finding any answers online, I suggest doing a very small batch of something (1 or 2 small jars) to test it to see if it would be suitable as a sugar replacement. I'm sorry I can't give you any definite answer! 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor Thank you. Knew it was a long shot.
Can I can custard for future uses? If so can you do a video on canning custard?
Hi Pam. I have never canned custard. When breaking down the ingredients and pH levels of the ingredients, I feel that this may not be a safe food to WB can. You would need to process it for such a long period that I feel that the end result, the texture, wouldn't be palatable. 😊
I don't know if I heard correctly. Are you storing your steamed canned lemon curd and lemon juice in the refrigerator or your pantry? Also, what you you estimate the shelf life to be if you stored it in your pantry?
Hi Victorian Gardens Cattery. I'm storing them in the pantry. The recipe I followed said 6 months for shelf life but I had some a little over a year old and it was good. I've got home canned lemon juice that's 2 years old in the pantry, and although the "solids" have separated and settled to the bottom, like any 100% commercial lemon juice would do, I just shake the jar real well before I'm going to use it. I hope this helps. 😊
Minha querida vou provar fazer. Quando vai fazer o bolo Angel. Para nos ? ❤❤❤❤
Sandra, eu já fiz o bolo de anjo. Deixa eu pegar o link pra você. ruclips.net/video/qcReNZXX4h0/видео.html
@@OuttheBackDoor ebaaaa já vou correr e fazer ❤️❤️❤️
I even can butter. LOL
🤣 Nice, Richard!
Wonder if you can do this with key lime? Hand key lime pies also sounds delicious
Hi Finca Rosa. Yes, you can! Just remember it's going to come out about the same color. 😊
Thanks! I will probably try it one year. I plan to plant a key lime 😋
@@fincarosa6767 key lime is my favorite!
Yellow and blue make green!! 🤣🫢 I'd be tempted to try it.😁
You're confusing me. 🤔 Where does the blue come from? Seriously though, if you wanted you could use food dye to make it green but I try to stay away from things like that. That's why I mentioned it will be about the same color as the lemon curd. 😊
add it to homemade ice cream
Hi JRC Homestead. That sounds delicious! 😊
I didn’t catch whether you can put the finished product on your pantry shelf or if it must be placed into the fridge?????
Hi Andy. Once it's been water bath canned it may be kept in the pantry. Refrigeration is required after opening the jar. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor Thank you so much for your quick reply 😊. Will do!
You're very welcome!
How many lemons did you use for the juice please and thank you for sharing. Be the next thing for my shelves
Hi Sandra. If I recall I went through 3 bags of lemons. Sorry I can't give you a more definite amount. 😊
No your fine that's perfect
How long will the jars last and how long will the jars last once opened? Thx
Hi Paula. That depends on how fast you eat it. 🤭 No, really I think I've had an open jar in the refrigerator about 5 or 6 days before I finished the jar. Also, the recipe I had followed said shelf life 6 months. It lied. I had some in the pantry that was over 18 months old and it was still good. 😊
Thanks for getting back to me. I could not eat the curd that quickly. I would have to jar it up in the 1/4 jar. Have a great day
Can this be used with yogurt as a fruit base?
Hi Anna. This would be delicious with yogurt, especially home made! 😊
Have you tried canning Wassail?
Hi Barbosa003. No, I haven't. 😊
Can you freeze lemon curd?
@tanyadavis9192 Hi Tanya. I've never done it so I'm not sure if the curd would separate or not once it thaws. Sorry I'm not able to say yes or no. 🤷♀️
Can you water bath lemon curd or do you have to have a pressure canner?
Hi Christina. Lemon curd only needs to be WB canned. When I have many jars to can, I'll use my PC as a steam canner so I don't need to use as much water when I'm double or triple stacking layers. I share how I do this process when canning OJ.
ruclips.net/video/CUcsSZ0OGQE/видео.htmlsi=VPP_N1KTAUrt0SdZ
Can you use lemon concentrate?
@jeanninemcwhorter919 Hi Jeannine. My suggestion is you would be better off using 100% pure bottled lemon juice than a concentrate. All concentrates have added ingredients for the processing. If that's all you have on hand, it would probably work. I tried canning OJ from a juice concentrate that was gifted to me and it turned out undesirable. I hope this helps. 😊
@@OuttheBackDoor thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions. I just love that about you, among many other things ❤️
@jeanninemcwhorter919 thank you 😊
Do you have a printable recipe?
Hi MR. No, I'm sorry I don't. I've tried attaching a pdf of the recipe into the description box and it wouldn't allow me to. 🤷♀️
Peel the remaining lemons to make Limoncello Waste not want not. 😋
Hi BostonBorn. A good suggestion for others, but I don't drink. 😊
bottled lemon juice ONLY for canning of any kind. Anything else doesn't have the needed acidic level.
Unless you have a high quality pH meter and your able to check the level. But yes, most people should stick with store bought. 💖
