    Can anyone tell us why we should de-bubble when there is or will be a much liquid in the jar during most of the pressure canning process? I ask because the jars are internally boiling like mad when removed from the canner so that - in my extensive experience - is a more than adequate de-bubbling. I am looking for good information as to why we should de-bubble in this type of situation, not just "because we always have" types of reasons. Thank you for sharing with us, Becky. I hope you are resting and enjoying your sweet baby as you recover.

    My grandma says that putting salt locks the flavour. When you put salt while cooking veggies, is because you want the flavour to stay in the veggies. So you don't put salt on the broth because you want all the flavours to leave the veggies and go to the water.
    Also: you leave pots simmering on the stove while you sleep?!

    I think somehow Becky knew I needed this video! I'm off work the week after Christmas and already planned to do this very thing, a turkey and 3-4 chickens. I honestly prayed that I'd find a video just like this to watch for reassurance! I'm so glad it's an Acre Honestead video bc I trust Becky's methods. I enjoy all of your videos! I would love to know how many quarts and pints of meat and broth you got out of all of this.

    People with parents who teach them these things are so lucky!! I’m 44 so it’s a little late for me but I so wish I grew up being taught all these amazing things. My house is small and I work full time so I just don’t see myself being able to do it, but I wish I could. It’s truly fascinating and impressive!!

      Hi, I'm 44 as well and apart from a couple of recipes I didn't learn much about food from my Mum. She didn't particularly like cooking which was great when I was a teenager because I loved cooking and then I became terminally ill and cooking and baking was something I could focus on and cooking for my parents as I moved back home when it was medically dangerous to live alone. I can't eat a ,ot of food due to having only one metre of my intestine left after many surgeries over the years. I also have aspergers food traits and I don't like mixing ingredients but I've been trying new flavours over the past couple of years. Unfortunately both my parents ts passed away in the past three years and apart from everything else I miss cooking for them. I've found a lot if amazing recipes on UA-cam so I would recommend searching for a recipe and watching a few variations and make it how you like it. I've taught myself to make professional cake decorating from watching countless UA-cam videos. I'd like to grow fruit trees, vegetables, have chickens etc but my health has limited what I can do. I have faith that you will be able to do some of the things you would like to do. I hope that you have a lot of fun doing whatever you try. Xx

    I really don't understand why you don't raw pack your poultry. So much easier and the meat is better quality.
    Broth is best when done with uncooked bones. Once you roast the meat, any flavor from the bones has pretty much been extracted.

    We have a couple of places I can go to that are community surplus food sellers. I was able to get 100lbs of whole chicken for a steal! We parted out some of it, vacuum sealed and froze them. We also roasted up about 10 whole chickens, shredded and froze it as well. Having that precooked chicken is so handy! I love to combine it with fire roasted tomatoes, black beans and some seasonings for a quick and easy taco night. It’s also great to whip up a chicken chili on a cold night

    Canning chicken is a HUGE plus! Soooooo many options. You are doing an amazing job for someone who is about to give birth. Nesting. Can't wait to see you and Josh with the new baby.
    I was really blessed after Thanksgiving. 2 friends brought me their turkey carcasses and leftover turkey parts. SCORE! They know how much I love to can my own bone stock and broth. One even gave me a ham bone with LOTS of ham on it.

    Becky, there’s no reason to fill the pot up to get the most bang for your buck. By not adding it and letting the broth concentrate, there’s less to can and store and when you’re going to cook, that’s when you add the water! 🤗👏👍🙌💓❤️💓❤️💓

    A tip for keeping cleaned glass jars clean longer. Once they are clean and dried store them upside down on the shelf. Any dust will settle on the outside of the bottom and is easily wiped off if necessary. The inside is still pristnely clean. Works with glasses too.

    Hey! Hiya! I hope all three of you Acres are doing beautifully and are happy as larks to be together. Quick FYI...did you know that most veggie peelers work in both directions? I use it that way now, down and right back up, and it's weird feeling at first, but man, it actually cuts down time when you're peeling a lot!. Happy Baby, Happy Holidays, Happy life you three. xo from a granny

    Why does it seems now a days everyone at least the folks I watch on youtube, let the water run when washing dishes instead of filling up one side with desired dishwashing liquid or powder they use, wash. Then if have double sinks fill other side of cleaned sink with hot water for rinsing the dishes, etc.? Especially if you live in the country and are on a well, saving water! Equally if on public water and pay a water bill, saving water!

    Cause where i'm from we need to wash everything before cooking.
    Love watching you and congrats to you and Josh with son Acre....👶👶👶

  • @carolynturk-hu7je
    @carolynturk-hu7je 11 місяців тому +1

    FYI, The thing about seasoning stock as you go, is not being able to use it in feeding your child once giving the food you eat too. Salt and pepper not user friendly to toddlers eating same food as Mom and Dad, take the portions out before you season your meals for your child, because their little kidneys can not process those seasonings, especially the salt(sodium)! Take that in consideration once canning more towards time down the line when your child begins to eat people food.

    Refrigerate the entire stockpot after you strain. Then ALL the fat comes to top, so the slow going with the fat separator is eliminated. One fell swoop. Then you also have the option to freeze that fat like people freeze bacon fat to use in cooking, etc. for flavor etc. If you do that or like to cook with the rendered fat.😊

    Again, see the pkg in the one inside of the turkey? Why have you not taken that out? Also, that pkg added to water with celery and onion makes great stock to use for the stuffing broth and for gravy along with roasting juices.

    meat has to be pressure canned if it isn't in a picle or acid so yes broth aswell. I've been looking into this coz we used to can and preserve a lot of things when I was a kid. Now living in uk they don't even know what canning is so i'm saving up to get a pressure canner shipped over. I already do water canning atm.
