I am going through some of my more popular videos that I will be doing updates in in a couple of weeks and looking back a year ago I began thinking I needed to increase our food storage back up to a full years supply. I am noticing that many were feeling that same urgency. Who would have thought we would be where we are this year! 2020 has certainly been a long year with many changes, and I see such a need to teach preserving our own food now more than ever. I will be doing a series on What to Can, Dehydrate and freeze as well as recipes on how to use what you are storing. Please Subscribe and get alerted when I put these videos up soon. We need to use our skills to help not only our families but, if we can afford, help others we know in need with a quick and easy meal. I hope you all join me in learning more in this new Normal. Canning was nearly a Lost art, and now, Millions of families are growing gardens and Preserving their harvest, Canning meats, making seasonings, etc. I started Canning so I knew what is in the food I store for my family.
Thank you SO much for watching ❤️ Subscribe for FREE to my channel to learn more and be eligible for the 5500 Subs Giveaway! 🤗❤️🏝️

Awww, You are SO sweet!! Honored to have you as one of my subscribers Tessie!!:-) You Inspire me!! I am loving this You Tube community circle!
Dehydrated lots of green peppers this year, it's bumper crop year for peppers. We dehydrate, tomatoes also, and lots of herbs, cilantro, chives, lemon balm, lemon basil, oregano, several mints, dill, and more!
Love dehydrating. This is great!!

Great video I'm new to dehydrating. Please more videos
I love the big jars you have your food stored in! I have never dehydrated cabbage before…
🤗 Those are half gallon jars. Not good for Canning in ( with the exception of juices , water bath) perfect for dehydrated or opened Thrive life Freeze dried foods! And you can re- use good Canning lids that were already used for canning!( This is the Only time I re-use my lids)
I'm watching your canning and dehydrating videos. It nice to see what others have on their shelves. I have Corn cob jelly too. Looking forward to getting into dehydrating too! ~ Kate
🤗💜 Thank you! We LOVE Corn Cob Jelly! That and Lemon Curd are my 2 most requested locally!

Love dehydrating
I too love dehydrating, beautiful red onions tomorrow! New sub here and love your channel.
Hey, thanks for the video. I just received my dehydrator from Amazon today. I am totally unlearned concerning dehydrating (and a lot of other things too). Wasn't even sure what to dehydrate. But your video gave me some great ideas. I just graduated myself from oven canning. Did a lot of different foods. Now, I have some good information to learn from. Thanks again. I'm subscribing.
Thank you for Subscribing! Lots more interesting videos to come soon

I dehydrate a lot also. Thanks for your videos
NEW Updated video coming in February!
Can you make a video telling us what you do with all those dehydrated ingredients besides soup?
Yes, I plan on doing that. I don't know when yet, but that is on my list!
yes please :)@@DianeTheCanningNana
Diane - The Canning Nana would love to know this as well! I’m considering buying a dehydrator but not sure if it’s worth it...my family doesn’t eat a whole lot of soups or dried fruits.
Yes! As soon as I get some time to get jars out and put some recipes together!
Dehydrating is a Wonderful way to preserve fruits, veggies and Jerky. Takes up less room if you use Foodsaver bags or Mylar,and is fantastic for throwing a quick meal together when backpacking or camping. You can rehydrate veggies to use in Casseroles,Soups, blend in smoothies, make veggie powders to enhance flavors when cooking, create your own seasonings and preserve excess garden harvests! SO much you can do with dehydrated foods! 🤗❤️
@@yibuseato it isn't just about soup & dried fruit.
We dehydrate peppers, onions, chives, basil, cilantro , garlic, onion and tomatoes.
We can always rehydrate for tacos, homemade manwich, very inexpensive herbs & spices, pasta salad, casserole, jerky and many dehydrated foods can be ground in a coffee grinder (not the same one used for coffee) for compact storage.
I have just bought a dehydrator and this is just the video I needed! I grow a lot of my own fruit and veg and forage a lot in the summer too. I normally freeze or make jams/chutneys with my produce to store it - but I wanted to learn to dry it out. I am trying to make fruit tea blends, fruit leather and crunchy lunchbox snacks. I would never have thought of dehydrating mushrooms, cabbage, corn or herbs. Thank you for sharing this xx
SO many fruits and Veggies are just Wonderful after dehydrating!! Email me with ANY questions you have directly at thecanningnana@gmail.com ❤️❤️🏝️
After dehydrating the first time, I was hooked and now have four 9 tray dehydrators and can take advantage of sales on fruit and vegetables. Ya, I'm totally hooked!!! Love dehydrating. I use my dehydrated fruit and veggies a lot. Just did jars of dehydrated potato slices that will be used for scalloped potatoes and fried potatoes..
Good for you!! We Love making Au Gratin Potatoes with our Dehydrated potatoes! Actually Dehydrating potatoes this week ( as well as Canning some!).
What are some of your Favorite uses with your Dehydrated Vegetables?
Thank you for watching! 🤗
@@DianeTheCanningNana I'm still a bit new to this, but I've made soups (mushroom is a favorite), stews and tonight a B-B-Q pork stew that was an experiment and not sick or dead, so guess all is well. LOL!!!
i need to dehydrate more often, and thanks for the video
Homer Martinez Thank You for watching💗
Do u use air absorption in the jars? And do you vacuum seal with bags?
If I long term store Pint or quart or larger jars I use my Food saver to Vacuum seal. For things I use Very often I do not vacuum seal.
I do Foodsave some Dehydrated goods, and beans and rice, again for longer term. I have oxygen absorbers on hand always. Those are more for much larger storage in mylar bags with buckets. All depends on the food, and if I have so much that I won't use it up for several months ( like the cabbage and Onions I'll be doing!).❤️🤗
I have just gotten into dehydrating myself this summer, so I am still learning what to dry, how to dry and how to use. :) Looks great! Question on your dried sliced potatoes. Were those cooked first, or just blanched?
RebelRose Connie Just blanched them. 💗
How do you seal the lid? I’ve never done this before but looking for long term storage?
I use my Foodsaver! It has attachments for both regular and Wide Mouth jars and vacuum seals the jars for long term storage. You can also add an oxygen absorbant pack into the jar, then vacuum seal.
I just received my dehydrator for my birthday. Your video has inspired me so much I subscribed
God bless you Gracie
Happy Birthday!! Thank you for your kind words! Inspiring others is the reason I do my videos here! ❤❤😊
Diane - The Canning Nana
Hi , it may be so stupid question . But I just started to do it . But I using Mylar bags . Some of the products can’t be in mylar .can I use any plastic jar ? Right now is not good time to be out home and looking for glass jar !
You can get Canning Jars online at Target and Walmart! You Can store in plastic with a tight seal if you will be using what you Dehydrate soon, not good for long term storage
I have a question to you !!
Carmen What is your question??
I love having my dehydrated food in my pantry. It's so convenient to just take some dehydrated potatoes, or whatever I want to use and rehydrate them. It saves prep time which is great. Fantastic vlog Diane. You always have great content. Congratulations on winning those ribbons at the fair! How do you store your jars that are empty and do ypou have a separate pantry for your homemade canned food?
*you
Shesacamper 1 Thank you for your kind words💗 I have empty jars in their boxes or storage bins in a closet or under a table, all hidden. Yes, I have one side of our pantry for only home Canned foods. Redoing it right now, but I'll show it soon. Extra food is stored in a separate area under the Canning counter in my kitchen 💗
Great video, Nanna. What make dehydrated do you recommend? I’m seriously considering buying one.
🤗 I use an Excalibur Stainless steel 9 tray. But I started out with 2, then 3 Round Ronco Dehydrators. You really want one with a temperature and time gauge
Thank you.❤️
At one time I had three dehydrators. I quit using them and ended up getting rid of them. I'm kicking myself now. We have a local farmer's market that I could be utilizing more. Heading for amazon and putting them on a wish list (or whatever they call). Maybe my kids will get it for me for Christmas. Great present!
Janine Gober I'll be adding my Amazon link later this evening💗
Janine Gober Added links to some Dehydrators in description box!💗
Sounds like we are on the same page with this. Got a dehydrator full even now. With those orange peels they also make a great natural cleaner. Have a great day!!!
Opal from the suburbs I just bought new herb screens and will be doing a Dehydrating video very soon!! Time to restock!😊💗
Opal from the suburbs Thank you for Subscribing!💗
Orange peels are also great for grinding up into a powder and adding into smoothies for extra vitam C!
Celery salt is one of my often used spices that I make! Half celery powder and half pink salt works for me! It gives everything a very fresh taste! Everyone I give it to agrees! I am making deviled eggs now and I would never make them without it!! It’s so good y’all!!
🗝🤗
Thanks for sharing this information on what you've dehydrated. I'm just basically jumping on board with dehydrating. This week I finished cabbage, yellow & zucchini squash, frozen sweet peas, mushrooms and sweet red bells. When I added mushrooms, cabbage, bell peppers and squash to my soup, they never got to the tenderness I'd hoped for. How do I rehydrate (how long presoak or cook) in order to enjoy?
Sorry this is so delayed, we've been sick. I will have a rehydrating video out this week and comparing to freeze dried as well
Thecanningnana.thrivelife.com
Really good
Thank you! Brand new video up later today!
Is dired zucchini a good edible choice for children between the ages of 3-6? What's the difference in taste between dried zucchini & cooked fresh zucchini? After the dehydrating process does dried zucchini have the same benefits as fresh zucchini? What are we losing & what are we gaining from dried zucchini?
Great video
Thank You!! 🤗❤️
thank you for the video #197
How do you use the dehydrated cabbage? Do any of you have any recipe recommendations that use dehydrated cabbage?
@JaniceInman I use Dehydrated cabbage in my soups, stews and casseroles! We LOVE Cabbage and I always have multiple quart Jars stocked up! I am actually planning on Dehydrating more regular and Red Cabbage this week! Stocking up for Fall and Winter
Do you add anything in the jars with your dehydrated veggies..I thought some had said they add a oxygen absorber
She said she vacuum seal them! Listen and pay attention
Got celery, okra, basil, rosemary, and lemon balm in the dehydrator right now. Thanks for more ideas! :) Do you ever dehydrate cabbage by itself? Do you dehydrate your onions inside the house or outside? I've heard the smell is overwhelming so I haven't attempted it yet. Thanks!
Cami Thomas Hi Yes!! In fact I'll be doing more cabbage today and some mixed veggies. I dehydrate only indoors. Living at the beach, the cool weather and humidity takes longer outside to dry Completely.💗
I thought I did alot of dehydrating but you are the queen.😊 My cherry tomatoes came on late this year and I had to pick them green. As they ripen I dehydrate them but not sure what I will use them for yet.
I use mine as I would sun dried tomatoes. Make a pesto by food processing gently. Also great in a sandwich with mozzarella, pesto, Basil and melted provolone cheese. 🤗
@@DianeTheCanningNana thanks for the ideas!
Do you remove the pith from the orange peel or anything before dehydrating?
Lizzie Dean Makes Yes! 🤗
Hi, first time on your channel. Can you store the dehydrated stuff in plastic containers instead of glass? Just wondering.
Welcome to my Channel 💜
If you are storing short term with an oxygen absorber in the plastic container then yes. But, plastic is porous, so it isn't good for long term ( longer that 2 months) If you cannot store in glass jars that seal well, use a Mylar bag inside the plastic container with an O2 Absorber.
I use a lot of the 1/2 gallon Mason jars for my dehydrated foods and when I open my Thrive Life Freeze Dried foods, I store them in glass jars as well to keep longer. ( I live at the beach so Lots of humidity!)
The roasted cherry tomatoes is something I want to dehydrate.
Prepper Potpourri SO delicious!!💗💗
Does that foodsaver also work on other types of jars?
Only on regular and wide mouth jars
I always keep dehydrated foods, in hurricane area it's a have to. Hurricane Sally we depleted most of my dehydrated vegetables
Yes I do as well Here in California we have the threat of earthquakes at any given time with no warning so it's great to have canned food and I have a ton of that but jars can break so dehydrated food is the way to go as well For a little bit more security.
Can you dehydrate fresh juice ? Like beet juice than grind it into powder?
You can yes, but it's FAR easier to dehydrate beet slices into powder than juice
Great video I am watching alot of your videos today as you may notice. I love them!! Do you have to seal jars with dehydrated stuff in them? I got some oxygen absorbers I thought that would be sufficient. Thanks for sharing all you do!!------Tressa Daigle
Tressa's Stay at Home Life It's a good idea to seal them for longer lasting freshness. You can also add an Oxygen absorber in foodsaver bags!
Diane - The Canning Nana thank you for responding because.i want to start dehydrating really soon
Hi newbie here... for dehydrated veggies like potatoes or fruits like strawberries do we put o2 absorbers in mason jars too? how about silica packets? thanks
🤗 Welcome to my Channel 💜
I vacuum seal my jars of food ai store for longterm. I don't vacuum seal foods I use often. You can use an O2 Absorber in your Mason jars if storing longterm.
Once you open the jar, the O2 Absorber stops working, so I don't use them in my working pantry. I do a lot of dehydrating, but I also store a lot of freeze dried foods that don't dehydrate well or that have a better texture when Freeze dried. Visit my Thrive Life Website to see rhe variety you can add to your food storage.

@@DianeTheCanningNana Thank you for your reply and for educating us!
I want to get into dehydrating thanks so much for sharing
Wonderful Blessed Life I love dehydrating and Canning! Helping my family and being self-reliant is important to us💗
Only bought a dehydrater this week, plan to make dog food,do the vegetables still have their flavour when rehydrated?
Absolutely!! Som flavors are enhanced as well! Dehydrated cabbage gets super sweet! We eat it dehydrated when it is finished! Lol
where did you find the vacumn jar sealer for the half gallons I have been looking for one ???? Thank you
I bought mine from Amazon. I got the regular and large mouth size. I don't use the tattler lids anymore though they don't keep their seal for me.
There I'd s sealer for both the Regular AND Wide mouth lids that are available for the food saver! Saves you s TON of money vacuum sealing!!
Linda, traditional 1/2 gal mason (canning) jars use the same lids as pints and quarts. Regular or wide mouth. Believe the older 1/2 gal typically used the regular lid and most new ones use the wide lid. The regular and wide mouth FoodSaver attachments will seal the same style 1/2 gal jars. I have a number of 1/2 gal jar in both lid sizes and my FoodSaver vac seals them both, just fine. If you have a FoodSaver, google FoodSaver Jar Attachment.
Hope this helps you, if you haven't already got your sealer and others who may be reading these threads.
Hello! Enjoy the channel . What brand or kind of dehydration device do you use? Thank you 😊
Jeb Brown I Have 2 Ronco and a Nesco, waiting on an Excalibur💗
Diane - The Canning Nana cool. Thank you for the reply. I think I'm ready to try !
Dehydrating home grown celery leaf for the first time today. To make celery salt. Seems to be good! Do the garlic and onions not smell bad when dehydrating? Tfs
Mamofone Teen Celery powder I love to use! I don't mind the smell of onions and Garlic dehydrating at all. I'm Italian, so use garlic ALL the time LOL. Most people do it outside. Here at the beach it would take much longer with cool, humid evenings.💗
love the smell in my home !!!!!!
Alfo you can blend all theese in powders and use as species, food supplement, tee etc.
Yes!! In Shakes, Smoothies etc!
Thank you for watching! 🤗🤗
@@DianeTheCanningNana just to know RUclips algoritm if You are inteteated into: Your answer I got only after 1 month:-)
I answered you immediately. You probably weren't notified! It does that sometimes.
Do you have to use dehydrated foods within a year? How do you use your dehydrated cabbage?
Not if you vacuum seal it in a Jar or mylar bag , no. Watch my Channel tomorrow! I have a new Hand held Vaccuum sealer that is a Game Changer for storing Dehydrated and Freeze Dried foods!
I use my Cabbage in soups, stews and Stir Frys.
Thank you for watching!
If you're not using dried veg in soups or stews. How do you reconstitute and for how long? 😘😘😘
Nobody or hardly anybody shows that. I mean how many soups and stews do people eat!
I do! 💜 And I will be showing it again Very shortly! Once refreshed , you can use Freeze dried or Dehydrated in ANY meal you wish to! I make soups and stews for Canning with fresh veggies, but I use my Freeze Dried foods in nearly EVERY meal I make.
Can you dehydrate rosemary plants, to make spices?
ABSOLUTELY!!
I have tried Schwan's corn and I did not find it sweet. Peel whether it's orange lemon lime grapefruit is great to grind up and bake with as a powder.
Schwan's has Sweet corn and Yellow corn. Or at least they used to. I still buy from them but not corn anymore.
Dehydrating food seems tobe more popular in the USA. I am in the UK and just subscribed, and have just ordered me a deyhdrator. Looking forward to more. Thank you x
Welcome! Thank you for Subscribing! Is there something you want to see dehydrated?
@@DianeTheCanningNana some herbs and spices would be nice, like basil, rosemary etc. Thank you.
I just uploaded videos on Dehydrating Dill and Oregano last week. Have you seen those? I will be doing more garlic, cilantro, parsley and celery again soon
I didn't see anything that you said you wouldn't dehydrate again. Is that a different video? I'm just getting into dehydrating, but I've done more than I ever thought I would. It's not so hard to get things prepped. What I enjoy is basically setting time and going about my other daily activities while the dehydrator does the work.
🤗💜 I believe I mentioned what I would not dehydrate, but I will be doing a Brand New video on this top in March with many other channels, stay tuned!
Can you address the various shelf life for these? I appreciate your video and help!
Yes! I will mention this in my video Today! But, All sealed Dehydrated foods using the Foodsaver attachments OR Oxygen absorbant stored in a cool, dry place with no light should be good for several years. Example: I have several jars of dried onions, White, Yellow ,Red and Sweet. I dry them in about 1 inch chunks. I use these in soups, stews and stir fries. In addition, I also grind the onions as I need them into powder! I have a Blendtec blender, but a coffee grinder or food processor will work just as well.
I hope this info helps! 💜🤗
@@DianeTheCanningNana Thank you!!!
What kind of dehydrator do you have? Cause they look like they are really dried good, real hard.
I have a 9 tray Excalibur Dehydrator
Does dehydrating things make them last longer ?
Yes!! Absolutely! Put them in vacuum sealed bags or jars with an oxygen absorber for even BETTER results!
Hi do you need vacuum seal the jars.
Not If you are using soon if you're saving for long term then yes.
@@DianeTheCanningNana Thank you for your swift reply. Im new to dehydrating awaiting my delivery of a dehydrater cant wait. Thanks for video.
🤗
Did I miss what you would not can again? It was in the title but I didn't see them.
It's in there!
You said you dont just put in the jars?? What was the food saver for
Don't just put What in the jars??
The Foodsaver is for preserving dehydrated foods. I have attachments that seal the jars
What's the shelf life and can you freeze these as well to extend the shelf life?
You can vacuum seal dehydrated food in Foodsaver bags or Mason Jars. Shelf life depends on food dehydrated and how you store it. Herbs and vegetables store well for years, fruits and leathers months if vacuum sealed , oxygen absorbers help extend all foods.
Thank you, Diane! Love your channel! Great information!
Aww, Thank you!! This is Why I do what I do here! To help others be successful ❤️❤️🤗
👍
How does dried yellow zucchini taste? What's the difference in tasting dried zucchini & cooked fresh zucchini?
Diane. Do you and anyone else where you are knows my conscience?
I'm sorry, I don't understand your question
Why do people do that with food? Does it taste better?
To Preserve the food 🤗. Dehydrating keeps fruits and vegetables preserved until you need them. SO many different uses for dehydrated foods. Especially useful in times like these with Covid Lockdowns. Easy food storage and takes up VERY little space.
are the mushrooms canned or fresh?
Fresh but you can use canned
What’s the nutritional value or dehydrated food? Any vitamins left?
Of COURSE!
Dehydrated foods , vegetables and fruits , actually RETAIN their vitamins ! 🤗🏝️
Do you Blanche the carrots before dryingthx
mystique rose I have done it both ways and each works fine. 💗🤗
Thx...I am getting into dehydrating...I recently dried some chopped baby carrots..butbi didn't blanche them..they turned brown on me..bummer...I dontvlikevtheir colour so I think I might turn it into powder
mystique rose Hmm sounds like they overdried. Try blanching the whole baby carrots. I dry these all the time, they come out fine. Very small afterward lol
Thx...can I add you on Facebook plz
Wow all those ribbons you won! Blessings! I'm learning from a pro.
Allison Butler Lol💗 I'll do a short video after our County Fair is over next week showing all of the ribbons and things I've won by entering my Canned Goods! It's SO much fun!!💗
I do turnips, daikon, and hard shell squashes.
Dehydrating?? That is Awesome!! Love Daikon!! 🤗
Diane - The Canning Nana : we cut then in long ribbons the daikon. Use it for flavor and bulk in soup and stews. Squashes we slice for soup, and stews, flavor rice. Ditto for turnips
I Dehydrate Squash as well
Does dehydrating onions and garlic make your dehydrator smell?
Not my Excalibur stainless steel, NO! My old Plastic Roncos, Yes, but I just washed them very well directly after I was finished. No problems with mixed odors Whatsoever 🎉
If you blanch the onions first they hardly smell at all while dehydrating.
I don't mind the onion Or Garlic aroma! Being Italian, I use Both in cooking most days anyway so the aroma of different dinner recipes always fills our Home ❤️
you vacum them every time you open the jars?
excuse my english it's not my mother language
Only the Dehydrated foods, yes. I'll put some in a smaller Jar and seal the remaining amount.
@@DianeTheCanningNana isn't that exhausting.?
Of course Not!! Lol. I take out what I need and just put the rest back into my food pantry. No trouble at All and it's ALWAYS on hand! 💜
@@DianeTheCanningNana okay thank you for replying
What do you use all this in and how?
SO many different ways!! I will have videos on How to use your Dehydrated AND Canned food coming out by next week. I just made Chicken and Dumplings with dehydrated onions, celery and Carrots! Please see that video. ❤️🤗🏝️
@@DianeTheCanningNana I'll check them out. I plan to move to the Philippines province and I want to learn to can, dehydrate, and vaccum seal, etc. To be able to stock up and live off the land pretty much. We have tons of fruit trees where I will. E living and I want to never let any of the fruit go to waste.
That sounds like a wonderful plan! It's a lot of work but Very Rewarding and worth it! 🏝️🤗
@@DianeTheCanningNana well my Filipino family are no strangers to hatd work and I'm sure they will love to learn something that can feed our family
It is the same for most Canners. Welcome to Learning ❤️🏝️
The title says what I wont dehydrate again.....so what are those things?
@JudyRose That's all answered in the video. The Title says what I Will Dehydrate and what I Won't again. I show both. There are several I didn't think dehydrated well.
How do you afford all those jars to can the dehydrated stuff? Jars are insanely expensive these days unless you luck out and find them at yard sales or Goodwill, and I haven’t been able to in ages. It’s almost cheaper to buy dehydrated stuff.
I buy them only when they are on sale at stores like WinCo, Walmart and Target, also some home center stores. I have been blessed to be given many jars from people I teach at home , and yard sales and thrift stores. I have over 1000+ jars, half are usually filled!. Right now I am trying to increase my food storage back up! Lots of basic food videos coming up!
Of course, it's an investment. Once you have the jars you reuse them over and over again. Always buy NEW Seals, and replace rings as needed. ❤️🏝️
Diane - The Canning Nana That’s awesome! Hopefully I will have that many someday. I’m starting with zero right now, but feeling a stronger urge than ever to start stocking up. :)
@@tarabooartarmy3654 Think of them as a long term investment. I have canning jars that I bought over 40 years ago. It takes time to build up a good stash. And, it is especially hard, at first, because of the relating expenses involved with getting started in food preservation. Just take it at a pace that you can afford. Ask friends and members of your extended family if they, or someone they know, have unused canning jars and equipment. Aunt Sally may have stopped canning or cousin Andrew may be wondering what to do with the jars he inherited.
Leave your name and number at local thrift stores and charity donation shops, asking them to call if they get jars or equipment. Keep an eye on Craig's List. Educate yourself on what equipment, supplies and jars cost new and what the average selling prices of used are in your area. Second hand prices often run from "good bargains" to being "better off to buy new". Knowing the market will help you zero in on what's a fair price for both you and the seller.
Be sure to look for clearance sales as the end of summer gardening approaches. During winter months when generally less canning is done, buy a case or 2 of jars from time to time. Steadily build your stash when you have the extra cash to buy another dozen quart or pint jars. Also keep an eye out for commercially available foodstuffs in jars that can be re-used for food storage. There are a few products that come in mason jars, These jars would be used for canning. Some jars with pop-top (one piece) lids can be re-used for dehydrated food storage. There are videos on how to use these and to re-use canning jar lids for dry food storage. (Don't try to re-use single use lids for wet food canning. Risk of seal failure is to great to reuse these in waterbath or pressure canning processes.)
In closing, taking this "long term investment" approach should yield a good return in investment within a few short years. Using all the tricks of the trade, you may be pleasantly surprised as to how quickly you can grow your jar stash.
Hope this helps.
Oldtimer Lee Wow, thank you so much for your very detailed reply. It is very much appreciated! :)
I am going through some of my more popular videos that I will be doing updates in in a couple of weeks and looking back a year ago I began thinking I needed to increase our food storage back up to a full years supply. I am noticing that many were feeling that same urgency. Who would have thought we would be where we are this year! 2020 has certainly been a long year with many changes, and I see such a need to teach preserving our own food now more than ever. I will be doing a series on What to Can, Dehydrate and freeze as well as recipes on how to use what you are storing. Please Subscribe and get alerted when I put these videos up soon. We need to use our skills to help not only our families but, if we can afford, help others we know in need with a quick and easy meal. I hope you all join me in learning more in this new Normal. Canning was nearly a Lost art, and now, Millions of families are growing gardens and Preserving their harvest, Canning meats, making seasonings, etc. I started Canning so I knew what is in the food I store for my family.
