Corn is such a multi use crop. Dried stalks can be used for fall decorations, husks can be dried for tamales, silks dried to make a tea for many medicinal benefits, cobs for jelly, and of course the kernels to make a variety of foods. What a blessing to find so much corn!

As a kid, we lived on a farm with limited heating options. Our main heat source in the winter was corn cobs…they were dried and added to our wood burning furnace. Once they were burning it was a nice heat source but I remember it being difficult to start them if the fire went completely out!

You’re a better woman than I am because I HAVE to have a name label on everything that goes into the freezer because otherwise it might as well just plan on homesteading in there. TRUE STORY: Years ago when visiting my Nana ( their very large farm was in far eastern Arkansas) she asked me to go down to the barn, where the big deep freezer was, and get some bananas she’d placed in there earlier. I’m thinking “in a container, labeled BANANAS”. I look in the freezer and cannot find them; searched for an embarrassingly long time but still no sign of them. I go back up to the house and report no such findings. She’s perplexed. I told her I looked and looked but no bananas. I then said,” why do you have an old baseball glove in the bottom of that freezer?” Now she’s even MORE perplexed. After describing the baseball glove she begins laughing to the point of almost not being able to breathe. I begin laughing at that point, although I’m just laughing at her because I STILL don’t know why she’s laughing uncontrollably. That wasn’t a baseball glove. She’d been in a hurry and simply placed the bunch of bananas in the freezer, peel still on, bananas still connected to one another. I SWEAR it looked just like a baseball glove! 🤣

Your thumbnail reminded me of the time my Grandfather's garden produced a HUGE crop of corn. The back of Daddy's truck was completely full. He and I were in the garage, shucking corn, while Mother was in the kitchen canning it. She would laugh later about how there was corn on the ceiling, on the floor, in her hair, corn EVERYWHERE. His corn was so good, Mother would eat it raw in the garden. It was the only veggie I would eat as a kid. You would've loved his garden.

Corn silk is also great in handmade lye soap! Let it dissolve in your lye water as it cools down, strain with a stainless steel mesh strainer when adding your lye solution into your fats, oils, butters, and it makes for a super silky, creamy premium lather. I always throw a quart freezer bag or two of corn silk in my freezer during the summer for use in soap throughout the year! 😊

I love your new kitchen. Gas stoves rock! Some tips regarding your Food Saver: To avoid getting liquid in your machine, flash freeze everything first. Put the food in the bag, flatten it, leave it opened and put it on a cookie sheet in the freezer. Once solid, vacuum seal it. You can reuse the bags. Just wash them with soap and hot water (or run them through the dishwasher). In order to reuse bags that have had raw meat in them (or leftovers), before flash freezing, put the food in a zip lock bag, flash freeze, open the bag and place in the FS bag and vacuum seal. These extra steps do take a little time, but you can always multi-task and do something else while the food is flash freezing. It will save you a ton of money on bags, too. Oh, and you can also "boil in the bag" any veggies that you want to cook/heat up that have been vacuum sealed. Just use simmering, not boiling water. On to finish the video!

You mentioned in a past video you want to make Tamales, you could have dried some of the husk for tamales. I never blanch my corn I leave a thin layer of husk on it, cut of the ends and put them in freezer bags. The flavor is amazing! Taste as fresh as it did from the day it was picked! I only freeze enough corn to last one season. If I have any corn left in the freezer when the new season comes in My chickens get a nice frozen treat on a hot summer day!

@kristenevans4557 2 жыл бұрын

You can freeze whole ears of corn by just cutting the tops and tails, leaving the husk and silks attached, placing in freezer bags and freezing to be roasted on the grill (still leaving the husk and silks on) or roasted in the oven, later. I do this every year and it’s a great time and energy saver if you like eating ears whole. Your preservation/garden harvest videos are among some of my favorites so I’m really excited to see this years big harvest. I think I discovered you during last season’ big harvest. Great times.

My husband and I do all our corn for freezing outside. None of the mess in the kitchen! We set up the propane turkey fryer with water to blanch the corn. With the turkey fryer, you can do 20 to 24 ears at a time depending on size. It stays at a boil almost constantly, making it go fast. We set up 2 tubs or coolers with cold water from the outside faucet. Cool in one, move to the second for final cooldown. Set up our cutting and bagging station on the tailgate of the pickup. Use one of the cooling tubs with hot water to wash all the dishes, and no mess in the house! Also, no heat in the house to drive up air conditioning bill! Just remember to park the pickup in the shade :)

I was thinking that her house has got to be so hot from all that boiling and was trying to remember if the grill that they bought had a side burner on it. If she doesn’t have a turkey fryer, it would also be a good option to keep the heat out of the house. The only problem is that she constantly multitasking when she’s in the kitchen so she might have to have Josh watch the corn boil, lol

Becky here is a huge time saver on the corn. I used to blanch it just like you for years. Then a friend shared a different way and I PROMISE you it stays so much fresher than blanching. Leave the shucks on the corn except a couple or three on the very outside. Cut the silk end off a few inches. After you freeze the corn in this way, the silks and shucks peel off so easily and the corn tastes like you picked it that very day - so good. I was so afraid to try it this way but I promise you’ll never go back to blanching. Try a few ears and you’ll see. I still freeze it in ziplock freezer bags.

You can dry the tassels and use them for tea. It is good for several things e.g. PMS, joint problems, bloodsugar levels, headaches etc. there is a natural salicylic acid in it.

Interesting. Salicylic is basically Aspirin, so the silk tea would have anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties! Good tip

@Pharphette 2 жыл бұрын

@@TheShadowMan. Both salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid are useful as medications. The key difference between salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid is that the salicylic acid molecule has a carboxyl group and a hydroxyl group attached to a benzene ring whereas the acetylsalicylic acid molecule has a carboxyl group and an ester group attached to a benzene ring. Moreover, there are some other differences as well. As another important difference between salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, we can say their applications.That is; we use salicylic acid to treat warts, dandruff, acne and other skin disorders as it is a chemical exfoliant while we use acetylsalicylic acid to treat pain, fever and inflammation.

Love, love, love you demonstrating several different methods of preserving the same product! So far, I have been freezing and dehydrating. I think I am about ready to take the plunge into water bath canning and pressure canning. Thanks Becky!

2 weeks ago I shucked over 200 ears of corn. My daughter and I then cut it off the cob, put in a large pot. As soon as it came to a boil we turned it off. Depending on the size of the pot we added 1-2 sticks of real butter ! Let it cool down and put in quart freezer bags. SO SIMPLE STUPID we couldn’t believe it!! It is FABULOUS 💕🙏🙏

Hi Becky, hope you are feeling well. I love how excited you are each year at harvest time. You are doing such a great job of taking amazing care of your family. This child is so blessed to have you & Josh in this beautiful home with the bonus puppies. You did get a lot of corn, zucchini, corn relish done today. That bread looked so delicious. You have got a great start on filling the freezer & pantry. Until next time.

I put my ears of corn (trimmed) in the microwave for two minutes per ear and the husk and silk come off like magic and no further need for blanching ! Love those forjar lids also and love them! You are my joy in life!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

When using freeze dried zucchini in bread, keep in mind the amount of liquid fresh or frozen zucchini adds to the bread. You will most likely need to add additional liquid. I would personally add applesauce.

Preserving day! Yea! Indiana girl here...the corn cutter is worth the money. Last year we did 16 dozen ears in about 2 hours. Cut time in half! 1 person shocking, one cutting. Also we sit in the garage and cut raw corn. Then blanch the corn before bagging. We also take the back of the knife and scrape the cob to release all the cream into the Dutch oven. But the corn cutter does it all in one step. I have the one that is on a 15" or so piece of wood. I have trouble with hand grip and it really helps.

Our local farmer has a way to freeze corn. Blanch the ears, then cut the kernels off. Spread on a baking sheet, pour milk over corn, add a stick of butter. Cook in oven (I forgot the temp/time) then freeze in -lactic bags.

Another cool thing you can do with left over corn husks is to make a Corn Maiden Doll. Now is the perfect time- Harvest Time- to make one. We always place ours on the mantel in hopes of a safe and bountiful year. It is a Cherokee Heritage thing that has been passed down. We do a new one each year.

We are corn growers, so when we put up corn, we do it by the pick up load! If you could take a peek at the kernels, before you buy it, that’s about a week overdue. My most efficient way is to use a big metal bowl and flip a cup upside down in the center to use for a stand for your cob and then an electric knife to cut the kernels off. I make a big pile of the cobs, and then go back with a regular life and use the backside to get the “milk”
