    Default any other canning strippers?

    I'm having a canning party with me, myself, and I. I did beets and sweet potatoes, and now I'm doing venison, and tomorrow I'll do soup. I'm really excited about all this, but I imagine you guys aren't... unless there are more strippers who love canning food? Cause I really wanna gush about canning right now and I'm running out of people to gush to.

    Question: If you live in a van, what kitchen do you use to can stuff in?
    #2: after you have all your stuff canned, where do you put it all?

    anyway..I would love to learn how to can stuff. But then again, I'd love to learn how to grow veggies and stuff to put in a can. I'd also love a yard to grow the veggies in.
    I would totally love it.
    So gush to me about your canning. I will live through you.

    Question: If you live in a van, what kitchen do you use to can stuff in?
    Why do you think I don't have a kitchen just cause I live in a van? :pout: I have a kitchen in a box, and whenever I make a big pot of soup or whatever I can the leftovers. Then I put them on the defroster when I'm driving and eat them right out of the jar.

    But right now I'm at my friends house, taking care of her cause she just had surgery, so I'm using her kitchen, which is funny cause she has the same little coleman stove in her house that I have in my van. Anyways, the being stuck in one place doing a lot of nothing made me go canning crazy, and then sweet potatoes were on sale for like 38 cents a pound, and then my friends brother came over to see how she was and saw that I was canning and brought me a whole bunch of venison that I can have if I give him a few jars.

    #2: after you have all your stuff canned, where do you put it all?
    I have a big rubbermaid tote that's just canned food. I can only fit thirty-ish cans in it, and then I end up stacking jars in wierd places... and I give a lot of it away or trade it or feed it to people I visit.

    Oooh, you're gonna love it, Scarlett. Once you start canning you'll never need a fridge ever again, and your only electrical needs will be internet. LOL

    Is there someplace that gives directions on canning? My mom and grandma did it, and so does my step mom, but I have no idea how to do it.

    Is canning the same thing as 'jarring'. My mom does this. I have some awesome pomogranite jelly. (I don't think I spelled that correctly). But yum!!

    I learned from my mom, who cans preserves and chow-chow (a southern relish made with cabbage). I've done jam, preserves, and homemade sauces. And some pickles. There are always green tomatoes left on the vine when the first freeze hits in central TX so it's nice to make pickled green tomatoes.

    I love canning! Every summer when I go to Vermont I pick strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries and make jam. I also can tomatoes to use in soups and sauces throughout the year. My friend does homemade pickles sweetened with maple syrup. Great fun!

    I used to can corn, salsa, and a few other things. I haven't in awhile but if I get some good produce this year then I will. I was thinking about pickling some garlic this week.

    I was gonna go with canned strippers, but:

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

    I've got stew meat cacnning now, and I'm out of onions and garlic and salt. Next is ground venison, but I don't know what to make with it.

    I think garden canning is boring. What are you going to do with a jar of carrots, besides add them to something else and cook them all over again? For me the point of canning is to have jars of yummy stuff you can just eat. So I cook yummy things and then can them.

    Sxybrat, I'll tell you how to can. First get a pressure cooker, then make some yummy food and put it in canning jars. Stick the jars in the pressure cooker with water right up to under the top, close the pressure cooker, and consult your handbook for cooking times. See, easy.

    You put jars in a pressure cooker? Don't they explode? That would scare me, but I'm afraid of pressure cookers! I just put my jars in a pot of boiling water up to the top, and I know they're sealed and ready when the lids make that loud snap that locks them on.

    No, why would they explode? I know lots of people do the water bath canning, but I feel a lot better pressure canning, especially with meat.

    I've heard horror stories about pressure cookers exploding for my whole life, and I'd think if you're heating glass under high pressure it would definitely be prone to burst. Your experience proves me wrong, obviously, I'm just wondering why the glass doesn't explode under all the heat and pressure.

    I've never canned meat. Sounds interesting. I hope it doesn't taste like deer Spam or anything.

    I've done some canning myself. Not so much recently but use to always help my grandmother when she was still around. We had two large gardens and would can alot. If I remember right, tomatoes were the only things she would can using the water bath method. Something about the acidic nature of them made pressure canning unnecessary.

    The jars won't explode in the pressure cooker but even if one would happen to for some odd reason that shouldn't be a danger. The pressure cookers are pretty heavily built items. I remember a jar cracking once for some reason but never exploding and some of those jars were decades old.

    The danger is if too much pressure is allowed to build up in the pressure cooker. Then it could explode and that would be very dangerous. Newer pressure cookers should have a place that blows out and releases the pressure if it gets too high before the canner actually explodes, older ones may not have this. Properly working pressure gauges are extremely important. They are needed so you know that you've gotten it up to the proper pressure and thus the needed temperature and so you know if its getting too high. Around here every spring there is a place that offers to check the gauge for free.

    Back when I was a kid I hated having to help with the canning. Now I'm glad that I was made to do so because knowing I can plant a garden and know how to preserve the food to last through several winters is kinda comforting.

    Interesting. Thanks for the explanation! I've never owned a pressure cooker or been in a household that had one, so I don't know anything about them except I've heard they blow up sometimes. Must be the older ones that don't have the release mechanism.

    I can't wait until I can have a big garden. When I have a house with a yard, I'm going to grow so many veggies and berries and herbs! It's gonna be great. I might grow a few things on my balcony this summer, too; I'm definitely planning an herb garden. And yeah, if I score at the farmer's market this summer I'll put some stuff back for winter. My grandmother used to spend the whole autumn canning and freezing, and it was a lot of work but she had tons of awesome home-grown veg and fruit all winter.

    ETA - although upon googling, I'm informed that I'm lucky not to have botulism. Maybe I shouldn't do that anymore...
