    A few years ago i let my daughter plant yellow squash and she planted 12 mounds 4-5 seeds per mound. I was very surprised but we let them grow figured we could sell some turns out we found a different way to use them. I was in the local grocery store when my baby girl ask me if we could use them like sweet pickles well my answer was i have no idea but we'll figure out thst really soon. I was so pleased with the outcome the first pickin was 128 young one's and we made sweet gerkins they are amazing everyone that tried them loved them and couldn't believe they were squash. I hope you'll try them like this. Takecare and keep safe.

    I canned squash last year. I didn’t realize a thicker cut would be better, but it still eats and tastes just fine. I did not add onion at canning. In preparing canned squash last night, I added about a teaspoon of dried mixed onion and s generous pinch of garlic salt. Then boiled for ten minutes for food safety. Perfect taste! I will likely can more this year. Canning storage does not depend on electricity like s freezer. No monthly bill, either. Like my Mom did, I can. (80 yr old male)

    Nothing beats fresh fried squash, but this is a good second best. I like canned squash for soups and casseroles. I did find the squash relish recipe and will add it below as it was given to me by a friend. We Loved it. But, I reduced the sugar a little, added a hot pepper and some garlic. It was great on a hamburger or hot dog. Give it your own twist.
    Yellow Squash Relish
    10 cups shredded squash
    2 diced onions (I also added a couple of garlic cloves)
    1 large bell pepper (I used red for the color) (I also added a red cayenne pepper)
    6 TBSP canning salt. Mix all this together and refrigerate over night. Next day, drain and rinse twice to remove as much salt as possible. Set aside.
    4 cups sugar (I only used 3 and it was plenty sweet.)
    3 cups Apple Cider Vinegar
    1 TBSP EACH: celery seed, ground mustard, turmeric ( I also sprinkled just a little whole mustard)
    1/2 tsp. each ground nutmeg and black pepper. Mix all these ingredients in a large kettle. Bring to boil and add squash. Bring to boil again. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.
    Ladle into hot jars with 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe rims, place on lids and process for 15 min. in a water bath. Can eat right away, but better if you wait a week.

      The way I see it is if the Amish people are doing it we all can. I do live on a farm and we do not use any kind of pesticides. We also have well water not city water. Plus I use the same stainless steel pot and pans for canning only to be sure not to have the possibility of introducing anything into the finished product.
      The only time I had anything go bad was when I made a particular batch of stew. I didn't have enough venison so I bought a few beef roast from the grocery. I have never canned anything from the grocery store again.

      I am not sure on that Bob. It’s recommended just 2-3 inches of water in the pressure canned. When water bathing you cover your jars completely with water. Wish I could be of more help but I don’t want to tell you something I am not certain of.

    • @OldAlabamaGardener
      @OldAlabamaGardener 5 лет назад +2

      Even though the jars may be sealed, the canning process was not the approved way. When pressure canning the water should be only about 1/2 to 3/4 inch up the side of the jars. It is steam that gets the jars and contents up to 240 degrees, 240 degrees in the needed temperature to kill botulism and 240 is required for canning low acid foods such as squash. I do a lot of canning, watch it at my channel.

      @@BobBob-kq5lw That is a good question and I don't know the answer. However, I am going to give some thoughts. 1) The squash may be perfectly okay, but there is no way to tell, botulism does not have a smell or taste. 2) If botulism does develop in the jar it will cause the lid to un-seal, as long as you didn't keep the ring on it, and you should never store canned goods in jars with the ring on it. 3) How long has the squash been canned?

      That is the newest recommendation from the canning guidelines. Once the jars have set for 24 hrs I remove the rings. Per the guidelines they have decided leaving the rings on could cause a false seal or if you have a seal break this way makes it pretty noticeable and not hidden. Also prevents rust. I’ve just switched to doing it this way in the last year or so.
