Love to hear you "ramble", feels like we are just hanging out in a friend's kitchen making pickles on a stormy day.

Following you for many years, binging on your videos is really helpful right now, even hearing your giggle is a happy sound. I know watching your videos is helping your healing. Even though we have never met, I consider you a sweet canning and then some dear friend. Pat from Oregon coast

Pray your getting better sweetie we love you all . GODBLESS you all

Don't worry about the noise. You're living life to thd fullest and so is your family and friends.

I love the joy and excitement in your voice. Canning is so much fun! I pray when you recover you will be able to start canning again. It is so nice to hang out with you in your kitchen.

Praying you and your family up, sweet Heather! :)

I love spending time with you in the kitchen, Heather. Thanks for teaching me how to do canning. I have never done it but would love to try someday. Prayers for you and your family. Praying for you all to heal well. 🙏🥰

You are in my heart and prayers every day. Hope your physical healing is coming along to one day full function . The lose of Matt will be felt forever . God is helping you through.

God bless you and your family! I pray for swift healing and comfort coming your way. I am also a new subsciber and will watch and like as many of your videos as I can

Love watching your videos! Many healing prayers for you and your family 🙏🙏🌻🌻❤️

Bar keepers friend! It’s a cleaner you can get at Walmart or Amazon. It wipes tea stains right off stainless. It also takes the blackened area around the spout of your pressure cooker. Might even work for inside the pressure canner. It’s my best friend lol I use it on my stainless appliances. It comes powder like comet, spray or cream. I prefer the cream. The powder is great on grills.

Thank you for inspiring me to start canning. Your enthusiasm is contagious! I continue to pray for you and your family. God bless you all.

They look so good Heather. You are so blessed too have this talent. Great Mother, Wife and I love your videos.

Hi Heather! Found this older video while cruising KZfaq. I have been subscribed for a while . Prayers for you and your children.

Great Job Heather!!! I made pickles for the first time this summer, and my sister-in-law loved them so much that she even drank the juice and ate the fresh dill. LOL. I love canning too!!! it give me a high. lovin what ur doin...

I was just thinking when I was watching your Farmers Market/ Kroger haul " hope you do a video when you make the dill Pickles". lol If your family likes dill pickles, then you might want to try fried pickles. I am not sure if it is a southern thing or not, but they are really, really good!

Oh my I needed this video this morning. I'm going to buy picking cakes Saturday morning. I'm so excited🎵🎶

Love home made dill pickles. I did the ice box type once. They was good also. Love your videos Heather and love too see your children. God Bess!

Our family also pickles carrots, asparagus and green beans! It is a great alternate and also a tasty treat. I thought it was weird at first, but they are amazing. Love the videos. Takes me back to days at my grams house. Keep up the great work!

Been wanting this pickle vid! Thanks, AGAIN! Lotsaluv and prayers for you and yours.

I got so excited when you said you were doing a grape jelly video. Y'know I've been waiting for it! Haha

Been a long time since I did any pickles. Great refresher video.

Hi. I see this video was made almost 3 years ago but I just saw it now. The only thing I've ever canned is a few batches of Chock-cherry jelly, which turned out very well & great to have over the winter months on pancakes & waffles. I want to try pickles and your video is an awesome way to get started. I don't have enough cucumbers now but hopefully I'll get enough soon. I wanted to thank you for your video and I especially enjoyed your narration of the process and the excitement you shared. I bet you are a fun person to be around. I hope all is going well, take care & I wish you all the best!

Yep, I do too, put a dish towel on my out of the canner jars to keep from cool air hitting hot jars.

I’m watching all of your older videos and I miss your old kitchen! 😁And I’m doing more pickles soon and I’m doing them this way!!! ❤️

This year was the first time I have ever made kosher dill pickles. I used the large packages of the Mrs. Wages Kosher Dill Pickle Mix. We likes it so much that I have made three more batches. Two of those where triple batches. I also made Bread and Butter pickles using Imstillworkings recipe. Good luck with your canning.

Great idea sharing your mixtures-thanks.

I have one of those funnels too and just love it I've tried the Ball Pickle Mix and the kids say they are not as good as the Mrs. Wages. I made about 6 batches of the Dill and I lost count of how many Bread and Butter Pickles I made but it wasn't enough, they ate them just about as fast as I could make them. The funny thing is I hate pickles but I love making them. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome! The pickles look so good!

We'll done momma! They look awesome! Yes and you should be proud of yourself, I mean I don't can as I have no idea how to do it, but if I did I would react the same way as it's great to see your efforts and accomplishments.

Love watching you! Do you have a good fried pickle recipe? My grandson would be so pleased. Thank you!

Looks SO wonderful!!

Cloth diapers? I did not know anyone still used them. I tried but when we went back to work, we started using pampers. Where did you get the funnel? I would put my slicers and my chips in separate jars if I could. I also try to remove any loose seeds before I pour in my pickling juice. I love using a water bath canner. It beats using the pressure canner hands down. God bless your wonderful family. God bless America and thank you for sharing.

I made pickles a few summers ago. I can't find the recipe I used to can them, but I know it involved setting the slices in a bucket wth salt and ice for a very long time before I canned them. Best canned pickles I have ever had. If I find the recipe (crspy trick)I will come back and post it here for you to try.

Just a little hint I learned from Mrs Volfie, put a little liquid in the jar before filling. It makes easier filling and easier debubbling.

This is great !! My kids wud lov one of those pickle jars lol..... i have a video request .... can u do a whats in my fridge video ??

Prayers and blessing to you.

Every time I watch you can something. My brain is cheering for you. Go ! HEATHER! Go ! HEATHER! Lol

Continuing to watch your playlist.

Thank you for your time and effort😊😊😊

😁 I think you have conquered the world😊. I know this is an old video but I’m making pickles with you tonight😊 I actually got 12 quarts. Not to shabby.

Pretty! I would go after the sandwich slices too😊

Do you by any chance have a link to the funnel you used in this video? I’m a newbie to canning this will be my first year and I’m collecting all the tools I need and pickles are definitely going to be on my list. I planted 24 pickling cucumber plants in my garden this year! Thank you in advance!

I always enjoy your videos

Great heather I make them all the time I make 🌶 spicy dill and regular dill and bread and butter and refrigerated dill pickles and love them try spicy

yay! real pickles....this is so exciting and encouraging for newbies!

Another GREAT tutorial- thanks!

Enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.

Hi. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the knowledge, tips, and thoughts that you share. I became aware of your channel through a link from Noreen's channel (my cooking guru). Since I have retired I told my wife that I was taking over the cooking and household duties since she is still working. I had no idea what I was doing in the kitchen, so I turned to youtube. Between Noreen and yourself I have been cooking up some great meals, baking breads, and doing some canning, with much success. In an earlier video you posed the question " what can we do to make the world better?" You are doing your part. The gift of knowledge is invaluable and enriches us all. Thank you! By the way, to all the haters and people who feel the need to give a thumbs down. Keep that sh*t to yourselves. What the hell are you doing to make the world a better place?

Have you ever made zucchini relish. it has to be one of my favourites. The pickles look delish!

I would love to can zucchini and yellow squash because when I make vegetable soup I make WW soup and I use squash and zucchini in it and sometimes I have a heck of a time finding them in the grocery when I want them. Having them canned I would have them when I need them

What do you do to make your pickles not float to the top of the jar after processing? I packed as tight as I could and pushed out the air bubbles but they still float to top and the liquid is all on the bottom about an inch or two.

how did they come out and what would you do different?

And look @ you now...Mrs Canning "ecpert." LOL

when I can anything that floats I like to really pack it down with a sanitized, skinny glass that fits in the jar. I press hard enough that the veggies bend but don't break.

I chop the cucumbers by hand with a wavy ridge chopper and make them about 1/2 to 1/3 inch wide.

Great job! Bread and butter pickles next!

Great video

How about pickle relish? I love dill and sweet...for certain salads and garnishes. Have you done a video on that???

I feel like I can conquer the world after this video! 🤩🤩🤩

If you have a lot of brinn left can you store it? where?

Just Love The Picking Pickle s. Great 👍 Video 😊💜🤗

Thank you for sharing

Wonderful, just great.

I absolutely luv pickles! So does my 22 month grand-daughter! Can't wait to try! 🥒 🥰😘

Bread-n-butter pickles are my fav : )

Please do the video on your canning tools, specifically the nifty funnel and matching tongs. Make your pickles the way You like. Thanks for the videos!

Did you grow those or buy them??

I might have separated the shapes and then use the strips by theirsrelves. You could added peppercorns to each jar.

I had one dill pickle left in my refrigerator (store bought) so I had to go get it and eat it while I watched this video.

Linda from Linda's pantry says never put a towel over your canned goods when you take the jars out of the processing pots to cool an seal. It can cause them to go bad There is a name for the potential problem but I can't remember it.

You never need to worry about the way food looks as long a it taste good! And you stuff always looks good! P>S> They look yummy Hugs and blessing.

I know this is old but just wanted to tell you that the 3M GREEN pot scrubbers will take the tea stains off your pots, i use them all the time to remove mine

Hey Heather....its been almost 2 yrs since this session. Did your family eat all of the pickles? Would you do them this way again? I've made dill and bread and butter in the past, but for my Southern soul....kosher has too much garlic. I'm searching for a pickle recipe that tastes like Heinz Genuine Dills...which are more salty/sour than dilly. I've fermented too, but the recipe I did also calls for garlic and dill. The end result was still too garlicky and dilly. Maybe I should try again and just leave it out. (Sorry for the ramble)

What I have discovered is that Ball and Kerr have been bought out by a company named Newell. They are paying to use the Ball and Kerr licensed names. Hence the crappy new lids and rings. After contacting Newell, I was sent and email that said the following. 1. Press down on the lid, is it doesn't spring up it is sealed. 2. If you tap the tops of the jars with the bottom of a spoon to listen for an odd sound, but only people with good hearing should use this method. AND 3. LOOK FOR THE INDENTION. I want everybody everywhere to go to freshpreserving.com and fill out the contact form located at the bottom of that page, send an email with the subject line BRING BACK ORIGINAL BALL LIDS AND RINGS. Then tell them what your experience has been, your disappointment, the dissatisfaction with the length of time the seal on the crappy new lids is good for...18 months? I am like I could go buy store canned goods that are best by for18 months. Ridiculous, please help spread the word. We're being played. All the money for jars and product and you cannot depend on the SEAL. Thanks for listening. I listen for the pops. 8 jars 7 pops, then I have to use a spoon to figure out which one didn't seal. 3 flat lids, 4 indentations. Grrr

Is there a better variety of cucumber to use for dill pickles?

I was going to try making this recipe. I am new to canning and bought the Heinz Pickling vinegar. What is the difference and can I use it instead of the regular vinegar?

The half jar (fridge pickles) look like they might be more crunchy. Let us know what you think after you do a taste test.

Winging it is sometimes the best way to do it.

🙏

Have u tried bread n butter or sweet?

💝

did these turn out very crispy? Or have you changed your recipe a bit? been looking into canning and preserving but my main concern with pickles is if i can get them nice n crisp...

I made pickles tonight.. No canning, Just an easy version that goes in the fridge for a couple of days then ready to eat, One day i will be brave enough to can. LOL

No apologies needed. You live in a home, not a museum. 😀

I have never attempted to make pickles. In fact, this is my first year trying to grow cukes. And of course, I started growing everything late thanks to crazy weather so I am not sure if I am going to get anything at all.

were did you get the funnel from ?

I love Pickles

💙💙💙

💖 Hugs 💖

Making dill pickles and not putting a couple of sprigs of dill in the jar? I'm not sure if I approve. ;)

240 deg for 10 minutes minimum to kill botulism spores.

Don’t be a dummy like me. Don’t forget t o put the dill in the jar..

I see that this video is 7 years old. You said you didn't know what you are doing,. By now you are probably aware that canning jars are not intended for dry heat. Sterilizing them in the oven is not recommended.

Talking to yourself is a sign of intelligence. Just don't answer yourself

lovely daughter.....just so yummy looking!
