This video is a treasure, young people will realize later in life that they wish they would have learned things like this from their older generation. Thank you for sharing
yes, canning is becoming a lost art.Thank you for you're kind comment, "Mom"
@@Chrislovetv What was the name of crisping agent that you put in the jars? In Europe, we use horseradish greens and black currant leaves to make pickles crispy, but I could not find those in the US, and don't quite like soft veggies without them..
@@HaHaInc It is called alum,,you can find it in the spices section of youre local food marts..hope this helps,,thanks.
@@Chrislovetv Thank you very much! I like to pickle everything, from cucs to cabbage to tomatoes to apples, and this knowledge what I can use to make things that needs to be crispy actually do CHROOM in my mouth, it is priceless to me! THANK YOU 💖
@@HaHaInc glad we could help,mom has an additional tip,,,,1/8 teaspoonful of alum in a one quart jar .If jars are larger than a quart add more alum.1/8 ×2 or to youre liking.
thanks for watching ,,chrislove

@@Ananias03thanks for watching @ thank you for the kind comments
We loved pickled okra in my family. My mom decided to make four jars and bought fresh okra from a roadside stand. Mom said the woman was so helpful and told her she would need this many okra for 4 jars. Mom went home and started the process, however it/they needed to be kept in the dark for 30 days. Mom was proud of her okra…and then one night she died! The okra wasn’t ready yet and had a few more weeks to go. My sister and I divided up those 4 jars and though of mom with every bite
Thanks for watching.and the comment.Sorry for the loss of you're mom

Yes,it is thank you for the comments
Enjoyed your video, I've been canning for quite a few years, enjoy it actually. I haven't heard about using alum. I use for my 14 day pickles. They are very crunchy. I think I'll try your alum. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the comments.
Oh my gosh, thank you
Thank you. In reply to the comment

glad you enjoyed the video,,no she dosent make sauerkraut,sorry maybe I can talk her into it,someday,,
okay recipe is in description
I used this recipe, one of my granddaughters loves pickles. My wife’s and I were talking about pickling the coming crop. My granddaughters ask if we pickled any before. I grabbed a jar out of the cabinet and gave it to her. Later I found out she ate the whole jar, it was my last jar.
Thank you for the comments.Them jars have a habbit of disappearing.from the pantry shelves.Thanks again.
i have about fourteen quarts of pickle okra canned , about the same recipe . My plants put out alot of okra, good stuff.
Thanks for the comment.
Very much enjoy the simplicity of your recipe. And the fact you included the alum to keep it crisp, was a great tip.l had not heard before. TY!
Question: Can l use pickling spice w/a garlic clove, if that is all l have?
Thanks again! Be Blessed!
Thanks for the comments and question.
In reply to youre question: yes you can ,that will be fine.
Thank you
Thank you for the kind comment.
thank you
youre welcome.
This is the definitive pickled okra video of the internet. Don't @ me, we all know it is. I would buy all 8 of those jars without even a taste test. You know they're good when you see who made them. LAWD.
thanks for the comment
Thank You Mam
Most welcome 😊
Tell your Mom and Dad they are great! Lots of people posting are just so careful and specific for safety. My friends mom in Mississippi and my Grandmother who passed a long time ago can/canned. They don't follow the ball canning book they learned from family. We are learning from my friend mom and she has done this her whole life growing up.
thank you for the comments
I want to adopt her.
thanks for youre kind comments
Hiya! Just about ready to start my okra and have never added sugar before and this video convinced me to try it!
But... Granny says to add
4TB salt (1/4 cup)
1TB sugar...
The recipe below says 1/2 cup salt and 1/4 cup sugar...
I'm going to do it the way SHE told me to in the video, because something tells me she knows what she's doing! 😉 And I don't know if you can get back to me before I'm already done... no worries! But I just wanted to point out the discrepancy...
There is no discrepancy, just A different recipe. The sugar does not make it sweet, just cuts the sharp taste of the vinegar. I'm sure your Grannie's is A good one too!.
thanks for you're comment. "Mom"
I appreciate the simple recipe. I know you can add whatever spices you like but I like to know more of the really necessary ingredients then I will choose what extra I might want. I don't like buying spices that I will only use once.
thank you for the comments.
I will be planting okra for the first time this Spring to sell at farmer's markets. I am looking forward to pickling some. What variety of okra do you pickle?
any kind of okra, secret for harvest,pick them when they are 3 to 4 inches in length for pickling.
How long will these stay on the shelf after water bathed. A lot of people say it only last a year on the shelf. I find that hard to believe that after one year they would be bad. My grandmother canned stuff that lasted 5 years or more.
Thanks for watching.In reply to you're question.youre correct in your assumption,your grandmother was right,they should last at least 5 year's or more,probably stored,of course.
Two questions please...one how much store bought in a spice jar dill would I use, and two does the jalapeno make it very hot? Thank you for the great video
Thanks for the compliments.
Mr.Pierce ,and to answer youre questions.
If using Dill seed from spice department,Anout 2 Tablespoons.
A medium size Jalapeno just gives eough hot for taste
@@Chrislovetv thank you so much
you're welcome
That last ingrediant? Aloe? What you used for crispness?
it is called alum is for the crispness
Did yiu have any type of rack in the bottom of the water bath Pot
thanks for the question,the answer is yes
How long do they have to sit before eating?
Mom says one week..thnks for watching
How long before you can eat them?
Must you keep them in the fridge?
good to eat 2 to 3 weeks after making,refrigerate,after opening,hope this helps,thanks for watching.
When you can start to eat? When it’s ready after all? Thanks
Thanks for watching,and youre question.In reply, recomended 3 weeks sitting time.before eating.
So why did you only do 4 jars at a time? Because of less time in the hot water?
That was all the okra I had. Plus a waste of fuel and water to do less. I use A butane burner in the garage. thanks for your question.
Great video thank you. You forgot to include Alium powder on your recipe list?
Added thank you
How many plants did did you plant?
A hole row in the garden 25 to 35 plants,,t
hanks for the question
One quick question, I see that you use vinegar to water ratio at 1/2. Most recipes I have looked at go 1/1. So is the 50% vinegar just over kill to be on the safe side? As a cheap SOB I am always looking to save on ingredients. BTW, it was very cool to see the Oldsters doing their thing together. I'm almost 60 and this gives me hope!!!!! Thanx Friend
1 to 1 gives it too strong of A vinegar taste. I have used this formula for years with no failures. Thanks for your comments!
@@Chrislovetv Thanx for the reply and information. Be safe in this crazy world friend.
How long do they last?
Hey Adam Cortez,
Thanks for watching, and to you're question..
How long do they last...?
At least two years after canning and sealed.
After 2y they may start to turn soft.
if you don't mind soft. ,3years at most.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for watching
Do you heat your jars before putting them into the water. I get scared of exploding jars. Lol
No. put them in immediately after filling. They are warm enough. Never had one explode.
Does it hurt to put the okra in the freezer until I have enough to start with jarring the pickled okra?
no,,, I repeat no,,that will make you're okra soft,I do not recommend you do that. thanks for watching and you're question,hope this helps..
@@Chrislovetv how long can I leave it in the refrigerator after cutting before I jar it. Thank you for the reply.
It will usually last close to 1 week. If you notice dark spots/streaks on it, don't use.hope this helps
My pickled okra last year came out slimey? Any idea why? Thanks!
wow, that's never happened to us before.
Did you use pints or quarts,while canning,if so did you adjust you're alum recipe.
if your okra came out slimy,you probably didn't add enough alum.
Did you keep the jars at room temperature inside a cubbard.
>hope this helps, I'm, sorry yours turned out that way.
Moms okra has never came out slimy,it should be crispy.
@@Chrislovetv that’s the issue. I did pints and did not use any alum. My pickles came out soggy last year, would alum keep them crisp or should I use the pickle crisp product? Thanks in advance.
yes you need to add alum,that's what makes the pickles crispy,alum is the key,do not use a pickle crisper,alum is what mom uses,hope this helps.
Do you cut a slit in the peppers?
no mom dosent,she says itll make them hotter
@@Chrislovetv ok. I was curious about that lol. Thank you
@@bigmomma9371 youre welcome
I get the distinct impression this was not their first okra rodeo.
thank you for the comments.Youre absolutely correct.
I don't know how those jars didn't bust going in that hot water.
thanks for youre comments.
As long as there room at room temperature before hand, they should be fine.
I'm confused. In the video she calls for 4 cups water and 2 cups vinegar but the written recipe is 50/50. Which is the correct recipe?
sorry for the confusion its,,, 4 cups of water,and 2 cups of vinegar.ill correct the recipe,,I hope this helps,,thanks for watching,,
How much dried dill do you put in each jar? The video of your mom puts in 4 TBL of salt. Is that regular salt? Your mom also puts only 1 TBL sugar. Your instructions show 1/2 cup canning salt , 1/4 cup sugar. Which measurement should I use. The video or your written recipe? Thank you very much for making this video. This will be my first time canning.
If using fresh dill, 1 good head(flower) or from A bottle , about 1 good tablespoon. Brine recipe clarification: 2 cups water, 1 cup vinegar, 2 Tablespoons CANNING Salt, 1 Tablespoon sugar. Bring to A boil. Sorry for the confusion.
Why alum?
thanks for your question! alum is the crisping agent. without it you have soggy okra/pickles!,hope this helps
Finally, i wont have to pay 5 bucks a jar anymore
thanks for watching,and you're comment.
Would u plz type the recipe under the video so I can screen shoot it
yes ill have it up later.this evening in the description
,thanks for the question.,
recipe is in description thanks chris love
Whats their name? I call em Phyllis and Charles but I needed to know their precious face's names
If we pour the boiling water in , ít may crack the jar . When I pickle the cabbage , I put the cabbage in the boiling water in few seconds and scoop them out , then add salt into boiling water until it is totally disolved , then let the water cool down, then pour onto cabbage
thanks for youre concern,and comment
@@Chrislovetv : Thank you for your attention to My opinion
youre welcome
It is ok to put boiling liquid into the hot jars. It is only if you put the boiling liquid into a cold jar that you will have a problem.
@@ellenclayton5955 : thank you , but “ being cautious is better than sorry “ .
