Thanks for the reference to National Center for home food preservation - most useful.
Amazing that all those carrots were grown in pots! Hint: if you put a colander in the ice water bowl after you put the ice in you can just lift the vegs out of the water without fussing with trying to remove the ice. So easy and much faster.
That is a great tip! I will do that next time 😁.
Thanks for this. First time ever dealing with garden carrots. :)
Thank you for explaining I watched so many videos of how to store and freeze carrots with boiling and blanching but noone ever explained why it's important to do this process I'm trying to learn how to start saving as much food as I can so when the food famine strike I will have food for me and my family and neighbors if needed Thank you thank you thank Great video keep them coming
Thank you for that encouragement ❤️.
@@asliceofheavenhomestead3559 i believe i was subscribed to your channel but RUclips is unsubbing ppl from youtubers channels i just simply resub again but its alot of RUclipsrs that im missing out on their commentary because RUclips has unsubbed me and other ppl have the same complaints as i as well its not only happening to me others are going through this too so let your followers know if they get unsubbed to resubscribe so they dont miss your important content and make sure their notification bells are on too
Very nice video and very helpful. Thanks.
You're welcome 😁
I knew we blanched before freezing I never knew why, or maybe I did when I was younger (I used to freeze veggies with my mom when I was younger) so thanks for that little lesson!
very nice video. Thank you.
Great video! The scoop is called a spider scoop or spider skimmer! A must have in the kitchen!
Thanks for what ever you did to make this video loud enough for folks like me. Subscribed and liked this AWESOME video, as a retired individual I am looking to do even more buying bulk and freezing (all I have done in the past is meat ) I knew somethings get blanched but I have always had to call someone and ask ok how do I blanch this or that I will be checking out your channel for future instructions. ... never even heard of an ice-bath ... I did do a quick freeze (place on a cookie sheet and stick in freezer for 2 -4 hours not sure if this properly replaces the ice-bath). ....
The cookie sheet method could work too. The point of the ice bath is to cool it down really fast so that it stops cooking. Thank you for your encouragement and kind words 😊
Thank you. I am currently working on my first carrot harvest!
Great job and beautiful produce. Thanks for info❤
Thank u so much for these tips. U, just answered everything I was looking for in 1 video. U r great
Thank you 😁! I'm so glad you found this video helpful.
This is the first video I've found that explained the WHY of blanching. I feel empowered now. Thank you! (As a minor quibble, your camera has MAJOR lens distortion. You probably already know that though.)
Thank you so much. I was curious about the why, so I passed it on when I found out. Yeah, that camera had since been replaced 😉.
I really loved this video. I can’t wait to do this to mine today.
Wow I never knew about all this, that is really good to know! Great video!!
Great video! New to the channel look forward to seeing more of your videos :)
Thank you
Great video..you explain thing very well..
Thank you 😁
You go girl, TY you made that seem super simple, LOL I will give it a go.. I am looking forward to growing carrots, LOTS of carrots.
You can do it 😉. Yay for carrots 😁.
Such an easy and great way to store the harvest.
Blanching also eliminates the cellular destruction caused by freezing raw vegetables.
Good video
I blanched thick-sliced carrots and when i got around to use them, they were utterly tasteless. Did I do something wrong?
That's a good question. I haven't come across that problem yet. It could be that they didn't have a strong flavor to begin with.
You didn't dry the carrots before freezing them?
I didnt blanch my sliced carrots before I froze them yesterday! Can I still blanch them after I froze them? 😖 About 25 cups! Omg
Do you peel the carrots before you cut them up to blanch them??
You can if you want to. I made sure to scrub them really well to get the dirt and little roots off, but there is nothing that says you have to peel them. 😁
You really need to précis your script!
