Hey friend, harvest season is here and that means its time to preserve food for winter! I have a big garden harvest that we will be freezing, freeze drying and canning for fall and winter eating.
Thanks for watching,
Kelsey

Basil Tea:
2 cups basil leaves
64oz filtered boiled water, slightly cooled
Steep for 20 minutes or overnight in fridge. The longer it sits the stronger it gets.
Strain out leaves
add 1/2 cup honey and a squeeze of lemon juice
Sauerkraut
4 lbs shredded cabbage
2 tbsp redmonds real salt
1 half gallon mason jar or jar of similar size
1 cabbage leaf reserved
Combine cabbage and salt, agitate for 3 minutes then rest for 15 minutes. Come back and agitate for another 3 minutes, let rest for 5 before filling jar.
Every 1/3 stop and tamp the cabbage down firmly. The jar needs to be almost full. Add in remained juices and place cabbage leaf over top pushing everything else down and under. Weight leaf down with a small jar or fermenting weight. Set lid on top but do not tighten. Allow to sit at room temperature for 7-14 days until it is sour enough for your taste. Store in fridge or freezer.

I enjoy these longer videos, with multiple recipes, that show how you're preserving all the things you're harvesting. But sometimes, especially this time of year, I don't always have time for longer videos, so I'll save them to catch up on in the off-season and take notes for next year.

I like both video formats. I think for the preservation, the longer format is better. I am harvesting tomatoes, peppers, lima beans, southern cream peas. I just planted a second round of okra, and I planted some black turtle beans. I am planning my fall planting for the end of this month, several root crops and also brassicaceaes. I may try another round of squash, not sure yet.

I saw one homesteader who said if she uses her freeze dryer for a week, it adds an additional $200 to her monthly electric bill. That alone is enough to turn me off of that preservation method forever and yet nobody else who has one is even talking about that. And when people are using that thing in every single video I can’t relate to them anymore so that’s a turn off too

Oh Kelsey! I am very excited to try the basil tea. I’ve heard it mention several times this summer but as one who isn’t really fond of cooking, if I don’t have a recipe to follow I’m not likely going to try it. I have been making raspberry ice tea (from tea bags, didn’t harvest leaves from my raspberry bushes but I will next year) and we have enjoyed it tremendously. That being said, I will be making the basil tea now as well! I hope you’ll share your tea recipes going forward ☺️. The trays of flowers looked so pretty! The colors were so vibrant. I have made egg rolls in the past and seeing yours makes me want to do those again and my husband will enjoy that too! I am thinking of trying an air fryer to cook them. Have you ever done that? Anyway, lovely video as always. I enjoy the videos no matter the size. If harvesting similar than having the longer video with more preserving ideas is helpful but honestly, it needs to be about what works for you! Have a blessed weekend. 🤗

I didn't know you could freeze cabbage leaves that way! I had just made cabbage rolls yesterday and filled what leaves I had meat for and I thought it was a shame the rest of the leaves were not filled. I just chopped and placed in the casserole dish. Had I known, they would have gone into the freezer for a quicker prep day of cabbage rolls!

So I screwed it on and thought to myself I will let it cool and put it in the fridge and use it in a few days. About 5mins later the lid on the jar popped and sealed. Would it be ok if I put it in long storage or use it in a few days still 🤔
