Canning beans has several amazing benefits... dry beans are cheap and easy to store and once you have them canned they make a great and versatile convenience food.
Even more importantly, store-bought canned beans are not properly prepared... the beans have not been soaked before they were canned leaving them full of phytic acid, an anti-nutrient, and enzyme inhibitor. When you can your own beans at home you have full control of the preparation, making the final product much more nourishing.
Beans need to be canned in a pressure canner to be safe. But don't worry... pressure canners are easy to use once you get the hang of them. In this video, Carolyn shows you every step of the process of preparing and canning your dry beans for a cheap, convenient and healthy pantry food.

As someone who has no one to teach me how to can, I greatly appreciate that you took us through the whole process. I've canned a few things and am getting more confident. I hope by this fall I'll be able to show my dad how to can his own venison and one day be brave enough to teach others this vital skill. Thank you for sharing your talent and teachings.

I like your page but wanted to let you know that after looking at a few studies, I didn't see anything that said that phytic acid would like steal your existing nutrients. Rather, it can inhibit the absorption of nutrients you take in at that meal, especially iron. Which is a problem if you eat beans for every meal like people in some countries do. But as long as your diet is diverse you wont be nutrient deficient or have any problems. Keep up the good work. :)

AimHigh Homestead it’s actually not true unless you’re a vegan or a vegetarian who’s main source of protein is coming from beans. Perhaps what is more interesting is the issue of undercooked beans.

It never occurred to me that I should can my own beans until a couple years ago. I normally grow some dry beans every year, but soaked them before using in recipes. Last year I grew Jacob's cattle, this year I went with Pinto beans. That way I save some different varieties of bean seeds. I could use the lower separate garden for two kinds of dry beans so they wouldn't cross-pollinate, but I have enough to do! Anyway, like most things you do yourself, home canned dry beans are really tasty! These have been added to my pantry as a staple, just like green beans, tomatoes, potatoes, etc. Added bonus: Do them in January or something, not when you are busy with tomatoes, corn, beans, etc.

I first started canning in 1960 with my Mom's help.That was the first year we started heating the lids because Kerr started using less rubber apparently, because many of our jars didn't seal. In fact it was bad enough that we used lids from an unknown company. We had not seen that company before and haven't seen it since. That company sure bailed us out of a lot of trouble. The following year the rubber on the lids seemed to be better. I still heat the lids because I want to make sure they seal, and most do seal. I like the Ball Lids the best, because they last longer, especially with the high acid foods.

I do my beans in pints, I clean and rinse my beans, I put a half a cup of beans in the jars filled with water. My canner hold 18 pints. So I set aside and soak 24 hours. Then I drain and rinse the beans in each jar and refill again with water and soak another 24 hours. I rinse again refill again and can them for 75 minutes.

@shawnabailes2069 3 жыл бұрын

About the only difference I see in my method versus yours is in labeling. I include the month, day, year and even batch number if I can more than one batch of something in the same day. The reason I label this way is in case I find any issues with jars not sealed or losing their seal, I will know to check all the jars in that batch. It also helps keep things rotated in my pantry if I put a full date on the lid. Especially with something like green beans where I will be canning several times a week for a while and have 120+ jars in my pantry from one season, I like to keep them rotated and keep the batches together. I have only ever had one jar in about 8 years of canning that didn't stay sealed (following tested recipes has probably been a big factor in that success rate), and the other jars in that same batch were all still sealed well so I can only assume I didn't clean the rim well enough. You do a fantastic job of giving step by step instructions and explaining many of the why's for the various steps. I like the additional step of running your bare (clean) finger over the rim to check for any bits of salt or food that was missed with the rag.

Hi Carolyn, Would you mind commenting on this endless question? The dry bean canning issue. Can you please tell me what the deal is regarding canning dry beans? They say that the pressure cooker will possibly not penetrate the bean adequately. Due to the tests done for canning beans that are presoaked or cooked. I have been told that my beans will be fine then the same KZfaqr changed to always soaking. Now Im wondering about my canned beans?? I have noticed that my presoaked beans peel and get all wrinkly. Also if my beans were to get spoiled, wouldn't the seals on my jars be compromised? Wouldn't a broken seal prove spoilage? or am I missing something? Thank you for any help on this. Carol
