How do you store your oats?
@foodprepguideКүн бұрын
I store oats the same way I store sugar like in this video - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mb51YJZ_29DYlo0.html But bear in mind that we're always rotating through our oats. If we were to put them away for years at a time, I would use mylar bags and oxygen absorbers.

I should try a 1/2 gallon jar size. When my husband and I lived on the farm, we pickled in 5 gallon crocks. Then we canned it. Of course we now know that the fresh ferment is better for your tummy but back then we did it that way to preserve it long term. We pickled kraut (cabbage) and we made mix pickles (that's a mix of corn, green beans and onion). The mix pickles was a long held tradition where we came from, most folks grew up eating it. It was a dish passed down from the time when folks didn't have pressure canners and pickling corn and beans or drying them was the only way to preserve them. Have you ever seen green beans strung up and hanging up to dry? When I was a little girl, if you walked down any road in my county in the fall, you would see long strings of green beans hanging from porch ceilings. According to the size of the family, sometimes you couldn't see who was sitting on the porch for the curtain on green beans. 😆 if you've never seen green beans strung up, try googling "green beans drying on a string in Appalachia". I dehydrate them now in a dehydrator. We called cooked dried green beans "leather britches"
@foodprepguideКүн бұрын
When you made kraut, did use this no-brine method or did you use a liquid brine? I’m still trying to decide which I like better. 🤔 “Mix pickles” sounds delicious. I have some corn coming in soon. I might just have to try it. Did you season it any certain way? Or just use a standard, vinegar-based brine? I’ve heard of leather britches, but I’ve never made them. A “curtain of beans” on the front porch sounds delightful! ❤️
@gidget8717Күн бұрын
@@foodprepguide we used just the salt brine. Just layers of cabbage and canning salt for the kraut, salt water brine for the mix pickles. When they were pickled enough (about 2 weeks) we jared it up and water bath canned them. Never tested it with a tester just knew by taste they had fermented enough to be bath canned. I should try making mix pickles again in a gallon jar and testing it with a strip just to see what the level my taste buds say is right. We ate mix pickles hot. You drain your pint jar of mix pickles and heat them up in a skillet with a little lard or bacon fat to season them with. In the cold winter, a supper plate with soupbeans (pinto beans), fried potatoes, mixed pickles and buttered cornbread was a welcomed meal. Edit ~ We did both kinds in a crock. But we used vinegar to make regular pickles (dill, sweet and bread&butter)

Nope, they’re both great! I just keep my electric sealer near my freeze drier because I prefer to use it when I have several jars to seal at one time.

Tomato powder is expensive . I’m wondering about comparing to canning the sauces. I found 3 lbs 10 oz for $33.92 with 137 - 1Tbs. Servings . I’m not sure about the price value . I can’t think it out to compare with the #10 can , canning 1/2 pint jars. Can you help me understand if I get a good price vs a #10 can into jars
@foodprepguide3 күн бұрын
You can dehydrate your own tomato powder for far cheaper. Now through August is the time of year when you can get tomatoes the cheapest - then just slice, dehydrate, and powder. 🙂 As for store-bought cost comparison of powder vs #10 cans, if you already have the jars and lids, it’d probably be cheaper to can. But, if you’re tight on space or really need your jars for other preservation projects, the powder provides space-saving benefits, too, and can be turned into multiple things. Pros and cons, for sure!

In my experience with growing red onions, they want a bit more heat (dry heat) hrs than the sweet or white onions. With the reds, it is about the number of days and the weather they get during those number of days. I usually grow one variety or other of the Texas Sweets and they don't seem to be as fussy. Of course, I am growing in Texas and the weather is extremely variable here so I think the Sweets were bred to produce as best they can given the weather they get. That looks like a really nice haul of onions. Thanks for the preserving tips.

I saw you do something with your onion root bottoms, i would imagine those with the brown tops are going into the compost. I cut those off bottoms and put them in a very small container with enough water to have the roots in. I place in a sunny window sill. Changing the water daily and wait for the roots to rehydrate and will start greens coming out. At that point I put in some dirt and watch it regrow more onions 😊. They are never as big as the originals but, great to grow onions from scraps! Your very thorough and I appreciate the ideas! Had not done anything with the tops other than cut like chives for on the top of baked potatoes. You can dehydrate those for that purpose as well. Happy gardening!

I trust the digital pressure canner from Presto. I’m undecided on those multipurpose models that just have a pressure canning setting. 🤷♀️ All of our home canned products generally get eaten through within 2 years, and nothing has ever gone bad in that time. In theory, pickled products should last much longer than that.

Not enough space to hit the numbers on a few veggies this year for our family of 5, but did hit the mark plus for onions. Should be ready to harvest in the next couple weeks. I have one question if you didn’t have a freeze dryer would you dehydrate the same amount of dices or freeze them? I was planning to dehydrate some of them, and wondering how they do? Just got a small dehydrator a few weeks ago, so zero experience in which way would be best.
