Finally! A home canner who knows how it's done - especially with pumpkin. Thank you Mrs. Volfie!

I like to can my pumpkin as pumpkin soup starter. I add the spices I use in the soup before canning. When I want to make soup, I blend the pumpkin with the juice and some cream cheese and heat. Very easy.

Watching the oldies but goodies vids. 🌻

I am glad you are doing the new and improved versions of videos you have done. Always good information! :)

I made up some jars of pumpkin and some squash this way. I eat it as a side dish also. Bev I enjoy your videos. My mom canned a lot when I was young. Now that she is gone. It's nice to have someone to learn from.

I have never done pumpkin that way. I only have the water bath to use. With that I just roast the pumpkins at 300 in the oven for about 2 hours then water bath can them. Dont know the shelf life because they never last long. On the plus side this year I followed your video on making tomato powder and I did it with carrots and this last week a sweet pumpkin. A few spoonfuls in a stew and it tasted really great. Hugs dear, Julia

Thumbs up for canned pumpkin!

I find it easier to cut the pumpkin up then clean out the seeds and such. Don't forget to roast the seeds too. They're always better than store bought!

Glad you're feeling better. I love having stuff in the pantry ready to go whenever the mood or need strikes. Another great demo.

That looked so easy TY Mrs.V will be canning next season Be Blessed

Glad you are feeling better. You are so fascinating. Glad I found your vids. Love you!

What a really great idea I can't wait to try

Love this! I just learned how to safely can my pumpkin!

Good job Bev, Love all of your videos...

Thanks. Keep doing what you are doing. I enjoy your videos.

Really going to have to try this. Never canned pumpkin & now they are 2 for 1 at some stores. Tonight I made 8 pts of apple pie filling. So good. Had a little extra & just had to put it over ice cream,yum!!

Nice video! I'm watching while canning my first Musquee de Province (fairytale pumpkin). It was about 16 inches in diameter and 8 inches tall. It weighed 25 pounds and we got 20 pints out of it. It's a VERY orange pumpkin even after boiling a bit and VERY sweet. Can't wait to grow them next year!

Really great how you stress about pressure canning great for new folks and even ones getting back into canning...thanks as always for sharing.

Thank you very much! I always thought you need vinegar, but with boiling water it seems so easy.

I have to give this a try...thanks for sharing

I just went today and got pumpkin, butternut squash and cushaw to can from our local greenhouse. I wasnt able to put out a garden this year due to some health issues. I cut up my pumpkin the same way you did because of the pain in my hands. Finally found out the cause only took two years, and a bunch of tests. I have neuropathy it has progressed all the way, and fibromyalgia. Looks like I have to be finding different ways of doing things. Enjoyed your videos, as I do all of them.

i love your videos . i love your no fuss method and your pleasant attitude :)

Great video! I haven't ever canned pumpkin but I will now. Specially when they go on sale after Halloween!

Loved it!

very helpful! Thank You!

Nice! Thanks Bev!

Just found you on youtube. Headed out to can my pumpkin. Can't wait to see what else ya got!

Thank you so much for showing this. I have been scared to can, but I have a canner. After seeing this video, I feel much more confident that I can do it now. Thanks so much for your video. I am definitely going to watch your others.

I finally decided to grow pumpkins. I have the small pie kind. I want to dehydrate, can and freeze them

I absolutely love you and your videos. I'm binge watching all of them lol

Thank You for sharing this with Us. I was wondering from a different video; how to can pumpkin. This is My first time watching one of Your videos. I am subscribing and did give You a thumbs up. I really liked this video. 😊👍🏼

you made that look so simple Thank you so much :-)

Oh Mrs V. You look awesome. Refreshed. Take off when you want. Me time is doing awesome for you. Hugs D

i never have to worry about pumpkin here- every year for as long as i can remeber my kids bring me pumpkins- and i mean lots of them and help me clean and process them for later use-most get diced and jared up in quarts- but some we bake and remove and put in freezer bags so the kids can take it home pop it in their freezers and have pie making stuff in a flash-- so glad Sunny has started her own canning- best pies are made from fresh home canned pumpkin...love and huggs wish i was there

So love your videos. Kroger here in Arkansas had pie pumpkins on sale. I got 6 😁

Hi we eat pumpkin 🎃 instead of potatoes. With butter and salt and pepper very high in vitamins and delicious

Between the canned pumpkin and pumpkin powder...You and I are set for a LOOONG while in the Pumpkin Category !!! So Glad you are feeling much better ! :}

thank you I still have a few from 2016

If you ever have any trouble getting seeds from pumpkins to sprout try instead setting an entire pumpkin in your garden in the fall. Leave it out all winter exactly where you want it to sprout. Then in the spring you can gently use a shovel to spread it and its seeds out a little the pumpkin meat and skin help give nutrients to the seeds so they can sprout. We like to carve our jack o lanters the night before halloween then set them out in the garden and put the seeds under them. You can cover them with a little straw too. Mine grow every year I never have to plant seeds. To get those giant pumpkins you see at the farmers market add some fish meal and some seaweed to them they will grow HUGE. Canning pumpkin puree is a pain my grandmother used to do it and your supposed to add a lot of water so its not so thick but then you have to boil it off to make the pies. Cubed is much much easier!

always a great video and info . so glad you are feeling better and seem to be getting back to your old self . love pumpkin and love your shirt . have a nice enjoyable n relaxing halloween you guys , hugs n xx from michigan

Great vid! You know, the skin comes right off cooked pumpkin, and it's edible. (No pigs at my place except me. Oink!)

Great video! Sandi from Texas

Oh my I need to get into canning.

I'm new to canning and I love your videos. I want to can and dehydrate everything I can I make everything that I can from scratch. So all the information you give is so wonderful. I was wondering how to canned pumpkin so I don't have to buy the stuff from the store and you answer the question with this method. How do you then prepare your pumpkin puree? Do you drain off the liquid and puree? And how does this pumpkin preservation method compared to your dehydrated pumpkin powder?

Great video ! Love your shirt , very pretty!

thank You God Bless.

love your tattoos!

Can't get over that color..reminds me of potatoes! Love your shirt :)

i was fortunate enough to hit a sale on 100% canned pumpkin on sale for 25 cents each! i bought a ton of them they don't expire until next december! i never thought to can it myself it seemed like too much work. You made it look so easy that i might try it myself. btw i went to the market the other day and canned pumpkin was almost three dollars a can!

You look and sound like your feeling better. I hope thats it for the season for you :)

I don't have a canner yet, just a water bath canner, so I freeze or dehydrate. i cut my pumpkin ok n half, scooped out the guts, and put it cut side down in an electric fry pan with water, lid on. The stem end has the hole which lets steam pressure out. as soon as it is soft, which only takes a few minutes, I take out and scoop out the flesh, easy peasy. Here's my next trick. I take the skin and the guts, minus the seeds, puree them, freeze some, dehydrate some. I know it's edible but I make sugarless pumpkin cookies for my doggies treats. They love em, good for elimination, and all natural. I have heard of people making pumpkin bread from it. Might try that some day. ( I gotta get a canner)

We puree and freeze pumpkin. It is so good to add to the dogs food

Oh Bev, not sure you remember me saying I would take up quilting and try a small wall hanging as a first attempt. Just changed my mind, I am going to make one of those pads for my cooling jars. I need that more. Now I am stoked, thanks for the idea!

Ty, for the great info! have you ever prepped put in fridge and then canned another day?

Love this video, thank you! Will you do a video of all your animals please. I would love to see them!

Do you think I could do this to the pumpkins the kids carved? We used glow sticks so no candle burn.

great

Bev, do you ever use the Tattler lids anymore?

Did you use Pints or Quarts, or in your opinion which is best? for Pies or soups?

It's good to see you back to your normal cheerful self. Thanks for the video. Noticing your kitchen in the background, it looks like a totally different kitchen than the one in the older video. Howie did a fantastic job of renovating. I do have a question for you. I've always used the cooking liquid instead of boiling water and if I have any left after filling the jars I can the extra liquid to use in soups and stuff. Is it just personal preference or does it make a better product to use fresh water in the jars? One other question, How does the white pumpkin taste?

You might have tried this . But with winter squash if you put it in the microwave for a few minutes it can be peeled a lot easier . It also can be split easier . Just a tip I like :)

Just saw on the news a few days ago that the price of canned pumpkin is going up due to a shortage this year. Great idea can it! Better idea if you can grow them. Thanks, Mrs. V. You sound so much better-power in prayer.

Can you tell me please what kind of canner you are using? Would like to know the name and size. I'm finally going to start canning after watching all your videos and I feel like I'm ready to begin

Hello, would quarts be 60 mins? Want to can for puree pumpkin soup :)

thank hi for this video but my question about this channel but your other one. are you going to stay reading little house books again or are you finished doing that? thanks for your time

looks better

White pumpkin = white pumpkin pie, hmmmmm. Will be somewhat odd, but I'm sure just as tasty. Jealous as all get out, down here, LOL!

May I upload this video to my channel?

I agree with your vid of canning pumpkin Bev. Just watched a vid where a man water bathed pumpkin puree for 10 mins. I did tell him water bathing pumpkin puree was not safe nor approved and told him why but he said he had always canned it that way with no problems. I said that did not mean his way was safe or correct and should not be teaching new canners to use that method. I am sure he will be on my case shortly.

Nummo!!! ♡♡♡

:D I'm a rogue. I canned pumpkin puree. It's looser than the Libby's but not watery. It canned perfectly.

Why do people always cut the vegetables they're canning in large cubes. Can you do small cubes, less than an inch?

I canned butternut squash and not all of it is covered in liquid when I was done will it be ok

Could not of come at a better time, I was just telling my wife yesterday that I wanted to go get some pumpkins next week and can some for pies. Is a pint jar enough to make a Pie or do you need a quart?

I have never heard of canning pumpkin except pie pumpkins. How do you use other types of pumpkin? Or am I living under a rock? LOL!

Does yours take 45 minutes or longer to come down from pressure? Mine seems to take forever to drop the pressure pin so I can open it and then the jars lose liquid in the pressure canner. About 10 to 20 % of liquid. They still sealed though. Don't know what I'm doing wrong .? It's happened for the last three things I've canned. First, kielbasa, then pairs, then salsa Verde. But it didn't happen before that. Any ideas? Ty.

l just found 6 jars of my sweet beets, dated 2009. Openex one and there was like a rust inside the lid, the second one had a funny taste. Shoud l ditch the rest?

I always enjoy watching your videos over here in South Yorkshire England but i started to think it must cost you a small fortune in jars and lids ?? am i correct in thinking this ?? Keep up the good work

Why couldn't you have used the water that you cooked the pumpkin in for 2 min.?

Ooh, I need a knife like that.

I was wondering, How did people can food without a canner in the "Old Days"?

I have never understood why you can't can pumpkin puree. It seems just like applesauce in its consistency to me and that can be canned. I've never tried to can it though. I might this year, in chunks.

Can pumpkin be dehydrated?

Why wouldn't you just can the raw pumpkin since it will cook in the canner during processing anyway?

i was going to send you a email to the gmail but said it was no longer valid I wanted to ask if you have any videos on pumpkin seeds. I tried baking some but turned out horrible

LOL, when you said "clean, damp rag" I heard "clean, damn rag"! lol, anyway...I'm a serious pumpkin pie girl, how many of those jars/pie do you use? I'm talkin' a good thickness now not a skinny pie.

the government doesn't recommend pureed pumpkin through the pressure canner, but that's how you buy it in cans in the store??????????????? what's the deal here?????
