How to Home Can Green Beans (2022)

Күн бұрын

Home canning green beans is a wonderful way to preserve their freshness and enjoy them throughout the year. To begin, make sure you have fresh green beans that are free of any blemishes. Wash them thoroughly and trim off the ends.
Next, prepare your canning jars by washing them with hot, soapy water and sterilizing them in boiling water. In a large pot, bring water to a boil and blanch the green beans for a few minutes to help retain their color and texture.
Once blanched, pack the green beans tightly into the jars, leaving some headspace at the top.
Prepare your canning water, in a separate pot and bringing it to a boil. Pour the hot liquid over the green beans in the jars, making sure to remove any air bubbles.
Finally, secure the lids on the jars and process them in a pressure canner according to the recommended time for your altitude. Once processed, allow the jars to cool and check that they have sealed properly.
Your home-canned green beans are now ready to be stored in a cool, dark place until you're ready to enjoy them. They make a delicious addition to soups, stews, salads, and side dishes, providing a taste of summer all year long. Happy canning!I will show you how I can green beans from garden to jar. I love to preserve my food fresh as it gets.
I follow the instructions from the National Center for food home preservation guidelines to ensure food safety and integrity. I always use a pressure canner to home can my home grown bean and never use a water bath canner for low acid foods.

My mom and I, and sometimes my brother snapped a million Blue Lake green beans every summer around the kitchen table. The conversations we had during that time were about family history, funny things in our early childhood and my mom's big pioneer ranching family who arrived in this county when the closest general store was a 70 mile round trip with a swift buggy horse. I wouldn't trade those days of snapping beans for anything. We put up at least 150 quarts each year. We had them at least twice a week, the rest were for insurance in case we lost the crop next year. I'm thrilled my own two children had the privilege of sitting around that same kitchen table snapping green beans with us. I firmly believe it builds character.

Very good canning video. Brought back of some really good memories of having both grandmas there sometimes to help snap beans and Mom and us girls would wash jars and get things ready my one Grandma Mom like to have around to pack the jars because she could pack probably more beans in the jars than anybody else could it was much appreciated when you were opening the green beans later on in the winter and a few less jars also. Although at that time we always planted West Virginia half runners because they were the beans of choice in Mom's family but you had to string the darn things sometimes a lot but they produced All Summer Long from the time they started until almost Frost so you know you've got gives and takes. One of our go-to meals because we lived on a farm with ham and green beans and potatoes heavy on the green beans kind of light on the ham boiled up for quite a while on the top of the stove. Mom like to have at least 300 quarts of green beans and 300 quarts of miscellaneous tomatoes canned and most of the other things were just 100 quarts but we did a lot of canning and actually for quite a while had quite a bit of help from the Grandma's Mom was an RN and worked full time so the Grandma's pitched in and helped and of course us girls pitched in and my little brother's job he was younger than the rest of us was to kind of clean up and take out trash and feed scraps to the hogs or whatever and go from there. Good job as usual

Hi LeAnn! I love green beans and just canned some about two weeks ago. I canned them in beef broth, I love the depth of flavor it gives to the green beans. You did an excellent job demonstrating and explaining how to can green beans. I can remember breaking beans with my grandmother and great grandmother when I was a wee tike. I didn’t know if you’ve heard about the Feds raiding an Amish gentleman’s farm in Pennsylvania I think, this was so disturbing. Have a blessed day and I’m praying for all the farmers and families.

Yes I heard about the Miller’s farm being raided in Lancaster. I wish I could publicly give my opinion on social media but I’m sure I would be censored. I love adding dehydrated onion to my beans when I open the jar to serve. God Bless you and yours!

Oh no! I don’t understand why or how the deer don’t get into my garden. I saw 2 8 point bucks and three doe in my yard the other night! That’s great about the Tomatoes Ginny!

Any chance you will be making a video on canning corn? Never canned corn before and a tutorial would be wonderful!

@MennoniteFarmhouse 2 жыл бұрын

I wish, but I have like 80 quarts of corn from 16’. I haven’t done it since. We prefer it frozen.

Great canning session. But for the newbies you didn't show (or even mention) cleaning your sink before putting cold water and green beans in. All my green beans died so I have replanted and just waiting now. My lettuce and cabbage hasn't done anything yet (except die). (been to HOT). Thank you for sharing.

I use to do them in 24 oz jars but since wide mouth are so expensive, I decided to go to quarts.

Awesome video, thank you for posting. I have a question regarding the pop you hear has the jars are cooling down. Besides the rim being dirty. What else could cause the lids not to seal. Also why is it important to get all of the air bubbles out?

@MennoniteFarmhouse Жыл бұрын

It’s important to get the air out so it seals properly to much air will cause it not to seal. It can also unseal if there is bacterial growing inside. Also the lid might not be the best quality, it’s possibly.

Grandma took the ends off her string beans outside in her rocker, their chickens were free range and they got the bad ones and ends. Then washed her beans, inside, and filled and canned her beans. During the Depression.

Whenever cooking home-canned green beans, boil them first in an open sauce pan. Then proceed to season and cook as desired. Home canned green beans can harbor botulism and the parboiling is cautionary to kill any bacteria.

@wtb61 11 ай бұрын

I should have added to boil them 10 minutes, no less.

@MennoniteFarmhouse 11 ай бұрын

This is the test and approved procedure for canning green beans nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_04/beans_snap_italian.html Boiling any home canned food for ten minutes is unnecessary provided that the proper canning procedures where followed and the seals are sound.
