I have been concerned about losing power so I have been using up my frozen vegetables also (pressure canning). I also like to get a big chunk of meat, doesn't matter as long as it is cheap, and adding frozen vegetables to about 1/3 jar of meat...Instant meal. You explain things well. Good video!
I absolutely agree. I'm working towards more canned on my pantry shelves and less frozen for the same reason and anytime it's a full meal, that's an added bonus!
7/30/24 Since the global tech disruption hit I started canning everything possible from my freezer! There were areas in my city that were affected by the tech disruption AND storm damage - all at the same time!
@@dancinginabundance I understand. Since I had just about emptied my freezers with canning, they are full again. Now my tomatoes are starting to come in, not enough yet to can but I put them in the freezer until I have enough to process. I guess I will be starting over with emptying out my freezers. It is a lot of work but it is better than being hungry and saying "if I had only canned all my food......". Good luck to you.
I've canned for 50 years, but never tried frozen. What a good idea.
It's a good way to make room in your freezer.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan , yes it is. I can meat for that reason. Especially if its been in the freezer for a year.
If you're able to get into a Sams Club, a Costco or some other pallet store, they have a section typically off to the side of the exit doors that are bins of cardboard boxes that the shelf products come in, for people to use and easier transport their bulk items. I like to rifle through there and pick out the cardboard trays to use in my pantry to store my finished jars in and easier transport and store.
Great idea! Thanks!

Lol..i just did the same thing! 👍🏻🇺🇸
@Mi33keC-mn8wy
I have pulled meat out of my freezers and canned it. But I must say that it never occurred to me to can frozen vegetables. I may give it a shot. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome!
FYI - I figured out that pint jars have different circumferences. Different ones I measured were 1/4 inch different around which meant I got more of the "ever so slightly" smaller ones into my canner. I noticed that while watching someone can pints in my same canner, he got more in his. That's when I measured the 2 brands I have.
Thanks so much for this info.! Depending on year made, some have a slight square, real suttle. That makes sense. Thanks again!!!
I just love this! As a novice, this would be an excellent way for me to practice without fear of ruining something I worked hard to grow or spent a lot of money on to purchase! I just love you to death, sis!
Thank you so much! My hope is to help others build the confidence that they can do this!!! How sweet to let me know that it helped.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan I inherited my sweet mother-in-law's massive 21 qt 1970 Presto canner 10 years ago and it's been in my attic ever since. Now that I'm retired, I took it down, replaced the gasket, gauge and relief valve and will be taking it to the extension office to be tested. My regulator weight appears to be a 15 pound weight though...I didn't realize there was a difference till watching your video! I guess I need to order a 10 pound weight.
@@2jedismom I have a 1970 version also. I use it and my new one at the same time when I have alot to can. Works great!
i dehydrate my frozen veggies since i dont have a pressure canner myself.
I need to try that! Thanks!
Definitely dehydrate my frozen corn! In my opinion the best way to preserve frozen corn.
You don’t need a pressure canner for vegetables, just water bath them.
Not safe to water bath veggies, except tomatoes. You can water bath fruit.
@AtHomewithMrsJoan I am new to Canning. Haven't canned my 1st jar as of yet but have been Blessed by someone the items I will need to get started WB canning. I have a question about canning frozen veggies. When I cook can or frozen frozen corn or peas, I always add a Tablespoon of sugar. Can I add that when I'm canning too? Or do I need to wait until I'm ready to cook them.
Trying to learn canning. I like pressure canning the best. We had a Hurricane this year and then a power surge which knocked the power out again. The garage never came back on and we post all our meat. The veggies are ok so I’m canning them tonight. The electrician wont be here for 5 more days!!!!
Wow! Thats why I love having canned food in pantry...those surprise outages and storms. Prayers as you try to can up and save your food before it ruins.
I wandered about doing this very thing and was told they’d get mushy. Well I’m going to try them now that I’ve seen your video. Thank you!!!!
We like them! You're welcome!
thank you for the video. So nice to see someone canning with bigger jars
Thank you mama when I order the pressure canner I will be able to use it for the first time because of your help
I believe you will enjoy canning and preserving your own food.
@AtHomewithMrsJoan
Yes I am still watching and taking notes 📝 and I will start buying one by one, thanks mama
Love your spirit! Kept me smiling while learning.😊
Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to show us how to double check our canner lids! Sometimes I forget to do that!
You are welcome!
Just starting canning and freezing watched your video,love your teaching very helpful & learned a lot. From Slidell,Louisiana thank you will do some canning frozen Vegetables my pressure canner is being delivered today lol
Thank you for your kind comments. I love helping new canners.
Thank you for the demonstration.
You're welcome. It's so easy.
You did an excellent job explaining how the pressure canner operates! You answered questions I have had for the past year! Thank you! I subscribed to your channel today!
Thank you! What nice things to say! I'm so glad it helped you.
This is my favorite canning video. I can do this. Thank you.
Yes you can! And don't let any of it intimidate you. It's easy once you get the hang of it!
I’m glad I found your channel. I’ve been telling my husband I wanted to start canning but didn’t know where to start or the process. I feel watching 3 of your videos I have learned enough to finally start. Thank You!!!
Let me know how you do! It'll be great!
Such a great video 😂 I'm just learning how to pressure can and you made it look so easy...I was scared to death😂 thank you again for calming my nerves. 💕
Carolynn from Los Angeles, Ca.
That's my hope is to encourage others. I too was scared to death at one time.
I came across your video when searching how to can store bought vegetables. I don’t have a garden and looking to learn how to can as a hobby/building a stocked pantry. Very informative and enjoyable to watch. Thank you.
I love canning and stocking my pantry. I'm thankful it helped you.
I really enjoyed watching your video. You are awesome!!!
Thanks so much! I enjoy canning so much!
Thank you for your joyful, informative video. You really highlight how simple canning is, while informing about safety. Love it!
Thank you. My hope is to give others the courage to give it a try!
I’ve only been canning a couple years so I love how you tell a story almost. I am from the south so our accents are similar - Tennessee / North Carolina. I subscribed and will go back to your other videos also. ☺️
My accent gives me away wherever I go! I love meeting fellow canners on here! Thank you for subscribing!
I am so happy that I found your channel!! I am learning so much!! Thank you!!
Awe thanks!
Just found your channel. You are so much fun to listen to. I agree with all of the comments. Your directions were so thorough.
Thank you! I try to give clear instructions. Thanks for watching!
I have watched a lot of tutorials for canning over the last 5 years this is a very good tutorial she covers a good amount of information and also the idea of emptying your freezer is good incentive. ❤
Thank you. If electricity goes out I've got to hurry to save my food. Food canned on my shelves stays ready to eat no matter if we have electricity or not!
Thank you Miss Joan for the tutorial! I haven’t canned in years and this was a nice refresher! ❤ truth be told, I never even thought about canning frozen vegetables!
Thanks for your nice comment. I love canning!
Thank you for sharing! I”m a new canner and a new subscriber.
You're gonna love canning! I now can all year long.
I just found this page. Very cool to can frozen veggies. I will surely try this out. ❤
Thanks. So easy!
Thanks a bunch for the heads up on canning frozen veggies. I never gave this a thought.
You'll enjoy them!
This is a great video and you are so happy, a joy to watch. I never thought of canning frozen veggies. I am a novice to canning and I don’t particularly like the taste of commercially canned vegetables so I will definitely give this a try (as soon as I get a pressure canner). 😀
Estate sales are a good place to look for a pressure canner.
Thank you ! Just came across your channel. Didn’t know you can do this and I pressure can and water bath.
I love pressure canning and water bath too! Thanks for watching!
I love that your headbands match your outfits. Super cute!
Awe thanks!
love it thanks sis
Love making videos to help others!
I just found you and subscribed, great explanations thank you, love your accent.
Thank you. I hope you enjoy the recipes!
Thanks for sharing your canning knowledge with us 🎉we appreciate you 🎉
Thanks for watching. I enjoy cooking and sharing with others.
New subscriber here! Thank you for sharing your vegetable canning video. 👍🏻
Your welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Sometimes freezers just get too crowded. In an apartment you just need to be able to clear it out for fresh use. In times of prolonged power outage a crowded freezer is a terrible waste. Making stews to can will be my next project.
I agree. I love canning then you don't have to worry about power outage or freezer failure.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan
Mom n I had chest freezers, but being alone I couldn't keep one in an apartment. I forgot how we'd bulk buy and harvest to can n freeze in July- Sept. and can from the freezer in fall n winter.
I like the way you can. ❤❤❤
Thank you.
I love mushrooms and will definitely be making these!! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
THANK YOU so much for this!😊i was just looking at my freezers and they are FULL and i wanted to know if i could can the frozen veggies..came to youtube and watched your video and learned how to do it from you.😊Also luv your style of teaching, so pleasant and warm.🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻THANK YOU👍🏻😊
What a nice comment. I try to respond to each one. Somehow I missed your sweet words. Thank you.
You speak my language! I am from AL as well. 😁 I am so glad I came across your video. I didn't know you could buy different weights to control the pressure. I have been so frustrated for years because I have to keep watch on my pressure cooker to keep it at 10 lbs. I also need a rack so that I can have 2 levels of jars.
Hello fellow Alabamian! Is that a word? I learn something new all the time. I love canning! Thanks for your nice comment.
That's a cute saying. Dilly Dally in the kitchen long enough you will be can!
I can't help it. It just flows out all the words I heard my family use growing up!
I had just been thinking about I need to get me some frozen vegetables.I have not canned by myself yet I've done it with my mother-in-law once so I am very excited to see your video thank you so much!
You can do it girl!
Hello I enjoyed watching your videos of canning veggies. Thank you. Have a Blessed weekend.
Thank you for such a nice comment.
Thank you
You're welcome!
Just nice to meet you.. great video 🥰
Thank you!
Thank you for teaching in a way that I understand.
That's my goal to teach simply and thorough.
Thank you for an easy-to-understand lesson.
I'm thankful it helped you.
Ms. Joan, Thank you. You have inspired me to clear out my over stuffed freezer. Thank you!!
Ms. Joan, can you can frozen Brussel sprouts, broccoli or cauliflower???
@@julierodts8467 I haven't done any of those so I don't know. Good question. Need to research it.
A great video! Just the information I was looking for. Have started canning for the same reason, get good food out of the freezer. We were without electricity for three weeks after hurricane Rita and had to cook everything in our freezers to keep from going to waste. Now we want to can everything. Thanks, You are GREAT.
That is why I want more and more on my shelves and less and less in the freezer. When you live through one rough situation it changes you forever!
That's good information about the processing time for us newbies
I try to include all the info possible. I love helping new canners!
I just found your channel! Last year in July, we had a terrible storm where I live in Springfield, Illinois. Called a derecho. Scariest storm I've ever been thru and I've lived here all my life. ( I'm 57) our town was shut down for over a week. The next week I bought my first pressure canner. I had water bath canned for years, but, I was scared of pressure canning. Not any more. I 100% agree with everything you just showed and said. You never know when you might lose power. That storm shocked us just like the snow storm you got shocked you. And it changed us all I believe. I subscribed ❤
When you live through something like that it changes you forever. Thanks for subscribing.
Great instructional video. Thank you😊
I try to help others and I love to learn new things.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan me too! Always reading, watching and experimenting!! Thank you!!🥰
You're a good teacher. Thank you. I did this same thing last year to make room in my freezer.
Thank you for such kind words.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan you are very welcome. They are deserved.
What a great idea!
@@carolineflynn1799 Thank you!
Thank you ❤
I have been afraid of pressure Cooking even since I was at Boston Marathon bombing
Thank you for making me feel at ease I will watch this a few times to feel Comfortable to do it But what a great idea frozen veggies ❤🙏
@@SEA-U2 Oh my! I can certainly understand your uneasiness. I don't know if it will help but I have a video here on "Pressure Canning for Beginners" where I tried to go slow and explain it in more detail. I'm so sorry for what you experienced.
ty
@@LindaLangdon-nh2vm Enjoy making these to help others!
I really enjoy watching your videos. Im going to do some frozen vegies. Im going to watch your video on ckn. Have some in freezer i want to get canned.
Canned chicken is something I use a lot of. It's so versatile.
Thank You so much for this video, you're a good teacher. Can you show how to can meat, I want to get everything out of my freezer and put it in my pantry.
I have a video on canning hamburger and chicken. In another week I'll be canning roast.
I'm so glad see this. A friend gave me a lot of fresh carrots, and i don't have time to can them just yet. But, before they get too old, I'll blanch them and freeze them. Then, when i have more time, and the weather is much, much cooler, i will pressure can them. Trust me, summertime in Texas is NOT the time to do your canning 😅
I'll bet! It's hot here too!
Yes having a freezer is nice but no electricity food gets ruined
So true! That's my goal...more items on my shelves!
Bingo
Very informative. Thanks for the video. I've been canning for 3 years. Now I can make room in my freezers.
Yes! That's what I needed to do too!
And also, if you have a power outage, you don't have to worry about food spoilage. I try hard to can, and pray harder when I can't. 😂
Thank you. I've never canned. I watch so many videos about it and still haven't tried. This actually took all the fear away. Thanks again.
I'm so happy it encouraged you to give it a try!
If you buy a canner a book will come with it. I still watched videos for months before I canned. It’s been 3 years now and I have canned a lot - whenever I find a good sale 😉. It has taken a lot of worry away from me about power outages etc. And I really enjoy it. Good luck
@@debbiesmith4186 I especially enjoy not having to worry about power outages. I love canning.
Very good teaching video. You gave great instructions that any new canner could follow . I have been canning for 39 years and I think you did a great job. God Bless.
Thank you. It's hard remembering every single detail to show and say. I'm trying to encourage others to not be afraid to can.
@shilofarm7248 have you canned frozen veggies? I would like to clear my freezer space as well but unsure if they will be mushy after canning. Any tips?
@@sharonjennings1282yes I have and their not mushy and a great way to clean out your freezer. Thanks
Great idea my freezer is full I have canned venison potatoes and and chicken legs, and thighs, keeping the bones in it, gives it great flavor. Of course tomatoes, and pickles and fresh green beans, I wonder if you could do broccoli, cauliflower, maybe it would get to mushy.
I haven't tried those for the same reason. Might be mushy.
You are so funny. And informative. Thanks
Awe...thanks!
I dehydrate too.
I need to try that!
Mrs Joan
I sure do enjoy watching you
Can you tell me something
Could I do this with frozen field peas with snap.?
Thank You
Yes just look up the processing time for field peas.
Thank you
I need to get all those veggies out of the freezer
It does help give more room in our freezers.
Hey Mrs. Joan,
Thank you so much for being so explicit with your canning instructions. I have learned a lot.
I have a question: how long do you pressure cook fresh corn from the garden on 10lbs of pressure? Thanks!
I do 55 minutes pints 85 quarts.
But I don't like quarts. Turns the corn too brown. I just do pints 55.
Thanks for the information
I'm emptying a freezer to defrost it and canned up a 5lb bag of green beans the other day. Also did some pork butt ans chicken breast. Next week I'm canning a brisket and I'll be almost done.
Wonderful!
The heating of the lids was never about them being clean. It was to soften the seal strip. Softening that strip allows it to seal better and also keeps it from being damaged. You can reuse the lids as long as your seals are good and you boil them.
Sometimes I forget to say everything. Your information will help many people that reads it. Thank you for sharing!
Enjoyed your video! I too am wanting to clear my frozen vegetables out of my freezer. Just wondering where you live in Alabama. I was born & reared in Mobile, but am now retired in Fayette (near Tuscaloosa). ❤
Thank you! I'm in Centre, Alabama (northeast)
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan I know where Centre is. I drive near there when I visit my daughter in north Georgia. I drive to Cave Springs. The trip is longer, but I avoid Atlanta!
Time is for FRESH FROM THE GARDEN veges, NOT already processed veges. You get mush at 75 minutes. I can at 30 minutes only when using frozen.
Oddly enough I didn't get mush. But I agree the time should not have been 75, but 55, the time for longest vegetable which was corn.
I was blessed to find a national 1935 preasure cooker. I inherited my brothers double canner the size you are using! I was so happy! I have always used a mirror 4 QT preasure cooker!
I loved listening to you detailed and informative video! Easy to listen to. ( not boring) I am going to save rhis video, to refer to later.
Frozen vegetables will be on sale soon! They always go on sale in the summer to sell the old stock!
HOW WOULD YOU DO POTATOES? OR Not?
Wondering find on the canner! I have a Playlist on several canning, but here is the potato one. Glad to make another canning friend!
ruclips.net/video/Xt1qSSB7NcU/видео.htmlsi=GClhHTaAyZ5GCztM
Wonderful, Not wondering! Lol
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan thanks I will look at it.
Blizzard of 93 and the April 2011 tornados. Yep. That will change you. I grew up in Oneonta, AL and live in St. Clair county now.
How well I remember 93 and 2011! Blizzard of 93 totally got me to thinking my household should be better prepared for sudden total life change such as no electricity, heat, etc. In 93 we were in a total electric house when the blizzard hit and we survived in one room with a kerosene heater. To this day my daughter won't eat pork and beans out of a can because we ate so much of it during the blizzard!
I can but i dehydrate frozen veggies n fruits In half gallon jars with oxygen absorbers or vac seal. I think i might try canning some just in case later shtf need the water to cook with. Its also why i keep commercial canned veggies and beans in case i need the juice to cook with. I pressure can beans too.
You made some good points. Thank you!
I'm just learning about canning, and I'm 77. Growing up we had a commercial freezer so other than pickles and jam Mom didn't can. (plus we weren't allowed to be in the kitchen when she was doing such things cause we got in her way. Then my husband and I were in the Army and they didn't allow us to move jars (cause of breakage). So here I sit all alone and I care about being ready for bad winters in WV and food shortages and such. Thank you for the lesson. I was kind of afraid of pressure canning - but thanks to you I don't think I will be.
Oh my! Thanks for letting me know this helped you have the courage to begin canning. You can start at any age. It's great knowing what is in your food. Good luck!
@@janiefox3458
When you pack to move you cushion to glass, so i don't understand why they didn't let you move jars.
Have you seen the cost of pectin?! I'd swear they have 1/2 less in them too. So online I looked for larger size pectin by the pound and organic flours. Much better prices!
@@debbabbit9283 I have no idea who came up with the rules and regulations of military moves. After 20+ moves our last one when hubby retired we did a DITY move (DO IT YOURSELF) from San Antonio TX to the Eastern Panhandle of WV. I had come ahead to accept a job at the VA so my husband did the packing - - I thank God I wasn't around for that one.
@@janiefox3458
Are you out now? Retired?
@@debbabbit9283 yes - I retired from nursing shortly after my husband died.
Thanks from a new canner. Curious about storage after the canning process is complete. Can these be stored in my open shelf pantry in my kitchen or do they need to be stored in a closet away from the light? Keep up the good wotk!
If your open shelves aren't constantly in direct sunlight and walls around them provide a small shade, you'll be fine!
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan that’s what I was looking for. Thank you!!
this was very informative. How long do canned items normally stay good
As long as the seal is tight they can last several years.
Thanks for a great video... Quick question, does the processing change the texture of rhe veggies? Ir make them mushie?
No not at all. I went with National Center for Home Food Preservation reccomended processing time which seemed extra long. I believe choosing the corn 55 minute processing time would work as it's the vegetable out of all the mixed vegetables that requires the longest. Gonna do that next time. But all the vegetables I did are wonderful and not mushy..
Sorry I’m late to the show this was awesome and convient how long can we store them what’s the shelf life
As long as the seal is good and tight then several years. But my stuff gets eaten before 2-3 years.
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan thanks so much
Thanks mama for helping us, please can I canning frozen garlic and ginger please, as I have alot and l have a feeling they will be grid off no electricity, we have received warning in my country and I will canned my vegetables as you have shown, thanks mama for save us our food.
I've never canned garlic and ginger so I don't have experience to share with you.
@AtHomewithMrsJoan
OK thanks for replying l appreciate your efforts
Hello, so we know you know what you're doing but I needed to let you know that I love your hair, so full and healthy looking.
What a nice compliment. Thank you! For over 20 years I colored it blonde. Stopped 8 years ago. Decided to spend my hair color money at the junk stores! ☺️
Question. I am at a higher elevation. Do I use the 15 pound weight and get to 15 pounds of pressure? Glad I found your channel!
I tried to find you a chart but this link has several...

Great video! I have the same canner. I didn’t know you can stack the jars! You just put them directly on top of each other? Also, as I’m still learning, I may be doing small batches of things like 2 pints at a time. How do you fill the extra space in the canner? Jars filled with water and a lid.. no lid, or is filling the extra space even necessary? Thank you for your time!
Oh never mind… I hadn’t finished the video yet and you talked about the double layer when you are pulling them out. So you put an extra metal piece in between.
Yes I was fixing to write you when I saw you noticed about the extra disk between the layers.
I like to fill my empty space with jars of water sealed and then you'll have shelf stable purified water to use. Or look for anything else you can can that processes for the same amount of time. Example...when I'm canning meat, dry beans processes for the same time (75 minutes pints, 90 minutes quarts) so I fill space with beans. Happy Canning!
I never knew we coujd xan frozen vegetables. Im a Alabama girl to, my mom canned everything we coukd grow and put uo fof the winter months. And hurricane season. 2 weeks without power , yih xan lose everything in your freezer. Canned jars much better.😊
I totally prefer canning over freezing. This was a wonderful way to clean out my freezer.
When you can pinto beans from the bag. I cook them, but I can't remember if you use the water off the beans or put fresh water in ea jar. You said 90 mins pressure cooker. It's been so long since I did it I couldnt remember .
90 quarts 75 pints
I took my frozen veggies out of their original bag and vacuum sealed them in bags in portion sizes.
That's great!
I did this! It turned out great. Another question on canning beef stew. Can I substitute parsnips for potatoes?
I'm so happy they turned out well! I haven't done parsnips, but I don't see why not. Let me know if you try it!
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan I have a night shade allergy. I have to reinvent a lot of ingredients and recipes. I ordered dry beans and I will do those next week. You are an amazing teacher.
@@suzannemarie7125 What a nice comment. I love love love the dry beans. So convenient. Good luck! I love canning!
I’ve tried the not heating the flats/lids but I only did it once because I lost 2 out of 20 quarts . When I looked at the lids I almost couldn’t see an indent on both. So now I take the extra step which doesn’t add any time to the canning.
I always heat mine since Mama did! Hard to quit!
New subscriber here 🙋🏻♀️ I’m from Alabama too Mrs. Joan. What area are you from?
Centre, Alabama where are you? If you try this go 55 minutes for pints. I believe that would be long enough. That's the time for corn. However mine were not mushy at 75. But after these I've been doing 55 and they are fine. Thanks for subscribing!
@@AtHomewithMrsJoan I’m from Fayette County. Nice to meet you. Ok. I think 55 would be enough too. This would be much easier for me than going to a farmers market or local farmer. I did cream corn last year and apparently 50 years makes a difference. I had probably not done corn in that long. 😂 I was worn slap out!
@@Myfavorites877 It's a job for sure!
What is the oldest jars you use for canning. I realized when making blueberry jam I was using jars from 1910
Wow! As long as jars aren't chipped or a fine line crack you are good to go.
Be very careful reaching around the canner to adjust the temp. It can cause some serious burns.
Thank you. I try to be careful.
Do you have a video on canning butter?
Thanks for reminding me that I need to make one. I have lots of canned butter on my shelf.
I canned 8 pints of green beans. Waiting to take them out of the canner. Of course it was frozen green beans. ❤
It adds up. Every little bit counts!
You mentioned you look to see if your ring is rusty, mine rusted the 1st time i canned some beans. Are the rings usable for a 2nd canning? I am new to canning with a Nesco electric pressure canner.
Yes they are reusable. After years of use I replace mine. But discoloration not a problem.
I just now ran across your video. Have a question for you I have that same stove. I was afraid to use my stove to can in. Worried about the weight of the canner full do you have any problems
No I don't have a problem. Sometimes I can 2 large canners at a time. One on front large eye and one on back large eye.
I just found your RUclips channel. I am in the beginning stages of learning to Cann. Have a few questions- what is the salt for and to you add salt to everything you cann? What does the date you put on the jar lids mean and how do you come up with the date? Thank you.
I usually put 1/2 teaspoon salt in for taste. It has nothing to do with preservation. Not necessary at all. The date is when I canned it. So I can open the oldest jars first when cooking it. Hope this info helps!
@@AtHomewithMrsJoanThank you for this information. How long does the food last once canned?
@@dare2dreambig313 We eat it up by 2 years but I wouldn't be afraid of it a couple years later as long as good seal and no discoloration. You can do this!
