I have never thought of canning greens. I usually dehydrate kale and then I can throw it into soup but it really limits what you can do with it. Next year I'm going to try this. Thanks for another great video oh, I'm very behind and watching them but I always look forward to seeing them. Hope you are doing well.
Ok, this feels just totally 'wrong' to me, over here in the Netherlands Cale isn't taken off the land until after the first frost. Seeing that the frost turns the bitter into sweet somehow.
Excellent video. Never thought about canning greens. Do you still prefer to pressure can kale or have you now tried blanching and freezing? I’ve yet to do either, 1st year growing kale. What verity of kale is that? I’m growing winterbor kale and it looks the same as yours.
I followed your instructions. I ended up loosing most of the fluid from the jars but the jars all sealed. I filled to 1/2" headspace, next batch I will try 1" and not pack it so tight. 1" is what the canner book calls for. Any suggestions?
When my sister done hers she took a knife and ran it down each side of the stem and it all came off the stem in one swipe. Thought that might help the next time.
YUM! Don't have many greens this year because of the flooding and the cats (anyone know how to keep the cats from pooping on your greens then covering them up?) ARGH! I love my furry guys and girls, but when it comes to my garden....nawty cats!! I'm looking into a Premier 1 electric fence to keep them out. They'll probably just jump over....LOL!! Anyway, love some canned greens. I will add some bacon and onions to it when I finally get some and have southern greens! Double yum! Blessings from NE Missouri!
YUM! I love canned greens. Thanks for the tutorial.
You are welcome!

Thanks Little Squirrel.
I can collards but haven't canned kale. I do dehydrate it. Thanks for info.

Glad to help

Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge. You are precious, May God Bless you.
Thank you

Here we eat it in salads and green all Summer long. However, it does taste a bit less bitter after a frost.
Interesting!!
Thanks for sharing! I am a beginner so this was very helpful.🤗
Happy canning!
Kale is the new meat :-) It is also delicious and satisfying. Great demo PP
...especially with crumbled bacon
@@PrepperPotpourri Just finished reading Atwood's Oryx & Crake trilogy. I'll send a squad of pigoons to get you! :-)
@@HuplesCat why, when real pigs are available?
I freeze and dehydrate my greens, great video
I blanch and freeze my greens, are turn out delicious!
I will try that with my next batch
Mom used to can everything, then later in life, we blanched and froze our greens, and they were more nutritrious and tasty than the cans.
I'm going to do that with the next harvest.
How long are they good for I mean how long are they good for before the expiration date you didn't say in the video
Did you add salt?
I did not
Time to show some pickling vids (ceramic pot pickling) and pickling canning.
Thanks for sharing !!
Yum, spiders and cobwebs, more protein ! ....

It is Winterbor. To be honest, I like fresh kale the best. Canned is OK but it gets to the consistency of canned spinach which I don't like.

Is your temperature constant? Fluid loss sometimes happens when temperature is adjusted during the canning process.
your the best. thank you! newbie here
Thanks for subbing!
Brilliant 👌👌👌👌

Great time saving technique. Thanks.
I am looking to find out if i can can kale without a pressure cooker. Can i do it safely with just a water bath
I believe it is pressure canning only
Are there any nutrients left in it, after canning?
All modes of cooking remove some of the nutrition.
So how did you use those?
Just for greens with bacon
Perfeito, estarei enlatando as minhas couves❤
Happy canning!
70 min in a pressure canner … so can you water bath them too?
No, not advised for safe canning since it isn't acidic.

I use deer fencing to keep out our cats, chickens and wildlife
Thank you
You're welcome
Is it bad to use your hands to pack leaves in jar
That’s not finger tight 😆
I wish I liked kale! I can't stand the taste of the stuff.
My husband also is not a fan
