Your so right having Canned fish that you have done yourself is like having Gold! Much more Superior in taste and Quality! We like to Can Whitefish that we catch, we also Smoke and then Can it as well. I'm always so proud of myself when I look at the finished product, LOL :)

I also do this with trout. I add 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/4 tsp canning salt and 1 tbsp of water to each 1/2 pint jar. The pressure canning dissolves all the little rib bones.

I lived in Alaska 60 years. I caught, smoked and processed wild Salmon. I would never can Atlantic Salmon as it has mingled with farmed salmon and does have too much Omega 6's which is not good for you. I like canned fish, but I do not like any fish that has been frozen as it definately alters the taste of the fish. When I smoke fish I smoke it hard and fast 15 min at most. It is still raw in the middle. Canning intensifies the smoked fish so that's one reason I only lightly smoke the fish. The other reason is if you hard smoke it untill it's done you end up with really dry fish after canning. So the new canning news from ball is you do not have to sterilize jars or heat up the lids and rings anymore. The seal part of the lids will get plenty hot during the canning process. I still run my cans through the dish washer and wait for them to cool before I raw pack any meat. I never add any salt to meat or fish but I sometimes add spices and herbs. There is never a need to salt anything you can.

Great video.....Thanks!

Nice job! Thanks !

Great video and many thanks for posting it! Question please.....If I follow your method can I also add a few drops of refrigerated bottled liquid smoke to the salmon before pressure canning it?

Thank You!

Great video! I didn't think to can fish yet. .. I'm just turning into a canning maniac! I'm assuming this is a dry pack method?

@SynnovesHome, Thank you for the video! Is that freshly caught salmon or is it from the fish market? Would like to try canning fish one day but wondering if I could can fish from the market? Thanks!

Ufff, thats a while day of work right there!

What is the shelf life of a jar of salmon?

does the salmon get cooked in the jars while your canning it? can you put more seasoning into the salmon rather than salt?

is it true that you have to always get new lids when canning again? you can use the jars but not the lids?

what is canning salt?

I can already hear Gordon Ramsay shouting “you don’t can salmon you donkey”😂😂 In the other hand, you are doing great, but i don’t recommend canned salmon if you have the chance to cook it, because fish is best as fresh, not canned
