- Опубліковано 5 лют 2021
- So many UA-cam videos present dry canning in your kitchen oven as a safe way to preserve dry foods such as grains and beans. But is it really safe? This video explores that question using solid scientific information. There are two additional preservation methods presented for dry foods that are safe and recommended.

You are possibly the most important youtuber out there right now. People need to be educated properly.
Wow, I hardly know what to say. Thank you very much.
@@RoseRedHomestead Totally agree with you "Just Patty", RoseRed is spot on target with her videos with educational & scientific proof of everything she explains to us!! Thank you RoseRed!!!
I just found this channel a few days ago and I've shared it everywhere I can, and I would agree with you, it's so important to learn the things she teaches,better living and self sustaining. Gives us our power back.
I so agree with you. Iearn so much from her. Amazing
Ty, I am so pleased I came across you. Tysvm
Lady, you were so serious, and then you said, “there goes one right now.” Meaning a spore in the air. Yes, I laughed out loud. Thank you for educating us all about preserving our foods. At this day and time we need the knowledge more than ever.
That was hilarious
And..humor (need more now than ever. And prayer, paramount :) )

As a fellow PhD in Microbiology I concur. I have voiced my opinion on FB groups, and I had outrageous comments contradicting me. I chose not to argue with insanity.
I have a similar outlook. Thank you for stating that.
Facebook isn't reliable anymore, dear sir. Have you seen that FB is posting notices for others to tattle on preppers? I've seen the notice posted in FB prepper groups. Beware.
@@elmtree33 Thank you for your post, and you are right about the FB groups, I joined a couple of them for the Recipes.😁 Also, I am a she.
@@elmtree33 😯🙃
Crazy.
I start to tell people, then I realize "why?" Stupidity cannot survive on its own, I say sit back with popcorn and let nature take its course. Sorry, not sorry.
I watched probably 50 you tube videos in my quest for learning food preservation. I was confused to say the least. Until I found your videos. I am learning and trusting (so important) from you. You’re all we need. Thank you to both you and Jim for the information you are providing us with. I am loving this journey I’m on and appreciate all the hard work you’re doing.
So glad to have you along on our adventures and happy that you are learning. Thank you!
I also love that you talk about yourself as a housewife and a phd. I went to college, and now stay home to raise children, homeschool them, and manage the household. I want my girls to grow up knowing they can do both also if they choose 😊
I am and always will be a daughter, wife, and mother first. My Ph.D. work didn't start until after my last child went off to college.
@@RoseRedHomestead wow that’s pretty awesome.
@@RoseRedHomestead knowing this gives me even more respect for you. I am just in awe of you. TY for all you do. Your brilliant.
@@debk5325 Thank you! Knowledge is power, and we can all be brilliant this way!
@@RoseRedHomestead Debra is correct, you’re brilliant!
I have been seeing all of those dry canning videos and was so tempted to try it, but something told me "don't do it!". I'm so glad you put out this video to help those of us who've been on the fence. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome.
I was just watching one and thought " that seems stupid"...now I know why.
There's nothing wrong with sealing dry goods in jars that way. You wouldn't use it to replace water bath canning or pressure canning. You can do the same thing but better by popping an o2 absorber in with them it will seal the jar and remove the o2
If I’d had you as a teacher I would have enjoyed school much more! Thankyou so much for sharing your (scientifically backed) knowledge and wisdom. You’re awesome!
As a teacher, I totally agree 👍🏿
I was just saying the same to my son a couple of days ago!
Please clarify: can desiccant oxygen absorbers be reused if dehydrated? Somewhere I heard or read that they can be refused using this method. Would you set me straight? Thanks.
@@susancarmona36 NO! NOT RELIABLY.
Thank you Rose! I am so grateful I stumbled on your UA-cam video. I just dry canned 40 pounds of rice. One jar did not seal tightly so I took the cover off and was going to re-process. Lo and behold the entire interior of the cover was wet with water beads and also the top neck of the inside of jar was also wet. I inserted one finger in the rice and actually feel moisture in the rice. As I poured the rice out on cookie sheets it stuck together .Needless to say I have had to dehydrate 40 lbs of rice little amounts at a time as not to cause even more issues. I cooled it all completely especially th jars I re-cleaned. I then followed your advice and vacuum sealed the jars! There was also a significant difference in the quality of the seal. The oven processed jar cover pulled of easily with my fingers even though they appeared sealed. The vacuum sealed jars need an instrument to remove them. I wish I had seen you video an hour sooner. I actually watched it during the time I was making what could have been a deadly or very sickening mistaken. Thank you for the education!!! Char
I knew you had to be a professor in the Education field! Thank you for much for enlightening us on the topic of "dry canning"! I so appreciate the fact that whatever you are demonstrating, it is NOT your first attempt! What a wonderful educator you are!
So nice of you--thank you very much. And thanks for watching.
Thank you, for showing the variety of proper and safe (easy) ways of dry canning.
I really appreciate you sharing the reasons why the other methods aren't safe.
I especially love the fact you showed ways of repurposing jars, I hate throwing them out.
Growing up with parents who lived during the war, everything was recycled, reused & repaired.
My parents and grandparents were like that as well and I love that mentality. I think my grandchildren will say that about me, and I hope they do and that they learn from it.
Thank you so much for this information. I actually tried the Oven Dry Canning for some dried pasta that I had been buying up. I prepared my jars, lids and rings meticulously. While I was waiting for the pasta in the oven to finish I came across your video. I was like, OH NO! When time was up I took my jars out of oven and placed on counter top and waited for the POP of the lids. They all sealed. Everything looked perfect. After a couple of hours I went to check on my jars. Condensation in every jar and the pasta that was touching the sides of the jars was getting soaked and changing colors.
I dumped everything and rewashed my jars. I didn't loose too much money or time but did learn a valuable lesson. Again, thank you so much.
My parents always canned every summer/fall without exception. Additionally, they planted a big garden every year, and my dad went fishing and a lot of his catch (tuna) was canned too. I personally love to can food. I would suggest that food storage, gardening, and canning should be taught in high school - all 4 years. If people started demanding it, perhaps it would come to fruition. Thank you for your videos and sharing your insight with us. ❤🙏❤
I love your sense of humor too!❤
You are right it should be taught in school
I am so glad I found you! I've never canned anything and never had a desire to until this abomination & mismanagement of the electric grid in Texas.
It is never to late to get started with emergency preparedness. You go, girl!
I’m so glad you found Pam before starting. Another great resource is your local university’s extension office. They should offer a master food preserver course. You can actually get certified as a food preserver! I’m always amazed that people don’t know to be prepared to be on their own for the duration of an emergency. Every state has emergencies from time to time, as we know, as we are embedded in one right now! The pandemic. FEMA recommends that we keep 2 gallons of water on hand for each person in our household for each day of a minimum of 2 weeks. That’s 28 gallons per person for consumption and hygiene. Add food, lights, medications, and blankets to stay warm and extra comforters to tack over the windows to keep the warmth in your home from moving out through your windows. I’ve been into emergency preparedness almost my entire life, both personally and professionally. I learn something from every one of Pam’s videos. 😊
It's mismanagement like that that has me super interested in food preservation. I hope you're enduring despite the idiocy.
I like Canning but all the weight of jars if there was an emergency to leave our homes. So I try not to go overboard. I've seen people have a whole room of prep. Unless people have a dump truck or own a semi truck.
Thank you, my teacher, my instructor, my professor, for presenting more great information. Also, thank you, for showing us a lighter side of you. Love, love, love your videos. We need to learn the correct ways to preserve our food. Please keep them coming.
So nice of you. Thank you.
I'm so glad I found you and recommended this channel to my daughter, we love talking about all your information. We appreciate all your research and how you explain things so clearly. Loved the humor on this one as well.
Your informative videos are invaluable to the canning community. The wise will listen. Thanks again for sharing what you know! You're such a blessing! ❤️
if people decide to vacuum seal flour it is VERY IMPORTANT to place a paper cupcake liner or paper towel on top of flour inside the jar before sealing..in order to keep dust from sucking up into your vacuum sealer as this Will ruin the motor.
That is a really good point! I thought of a coffee filter as well. Thanks for sharing.
Just found this channel. You had me at intelligence, grace, humility, and humor! Such a breath of fresh air!
Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you! That means a great deal to me.
I bought all the jars and dry goods to start DRY CANNING tomorrow.!!. I've watched what seems like hundreds of videos, but heard one too many say they SAW condensation inside. They said that it was normal and the contents would reabsorb the moisture...what??I'm no science geek, but that made me question the process. I also searched both UGA and Utah college sites. What a Surprise blessing your video just popped up on my feed tonight!! It confirmed my research and apprehensions! Can't wait to settle the dispute with my 'husband assistant' first thing in the AM!! Lol!!!!! I will be researching my future wet canning LESSONS on YOUR SITE !! I do have a few questions for you. I wanted to put an O2 absorber in the vacuumed sealed Mason jar....or is that overkill and it's just my OCD telling me to always have a backup!!!! ALSO, I did buy 5 gallon food grade buckets with gamma lids to store salts and sugars and pastas. Can I leave them in the original packaging and just use O2 absorbers...or should I repackage in foodsaver bags and store?, with or without O2 absorbers in bucket? Thanks for you advice in advance!! AND..thanks for the SPORE chuckle...I REALLY needed that tonight! Oh! I just noticed the NEXT UP video (thank you UA-cam algorithms!) LONG TERM STORAGE OF DRY FOODS!! all the hours of watching too many videos, and really...all this time, all I needed WAS YOU !! HUGS!!
You described her perfectly. I would add beauty to her description.
Thank you so much for clearing that up!!! I was about to try the 'dry can' method but now I know the science behind canning!! You are a real gem!! God bless you!😊😉👍
Thank u for answering questions I didn’t even know I wanted to ask. U r most wonderful teacher on You Tube!! U have truly blessed my families life with your canning videos🐾🐾💕
That is so wonderful to hear--it means a lot to know that our videos are useful to people. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your profound knowledge. I was confused about “dry” canning, as I tried it and did not work for me. So, I bought food grade storage buckets. You backed up with science my discernment about “dry” canning. Thank you again for sharing.
You are welcome. And sometimes things happen so we can learn more!
Oh my word you just saved me a whole lot of work, I had just watched a video on dry canning in oven and saw yours in the cue and knew if you did a video I needed to take the time to watch it. You are so great with your teaching, your logic, your use of qualified resources and your concern for our safety. I am very new to this and am feeling the need to prepare a little better these days. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Glad I could help! And Glad you saw this in time!
I was introduced to canning by my Mom and paternal Grandmother at age of 8. Mom made me take home economics even though she was a great teacher. My teacher was the county extension agent.
Watching you explain the concept of canning was so interesting.
This video was premo. Be blessed.
You make the most sense of most YT videos on canning and the best part of it is you back it up with science. I just found you and will watch all your previous videos. Thanks for your info
Thanks and welcome! So glad our videos are useful for you.
I am so glad I found you on UA-cam a few months ago. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and your humor. Like so many of your subscribers, I have learned so much from you about canning and food preservation. The world is a better place because of you. God bless.
That is so kind of you--thank you very much.
Yes God bless you
Wow Rose…I just watched one of those oven dry canning videos yesterday. I’m 76 years old and in all my years I’ve only had weevils in my flour ONCE. I’ve had worms in oatmeal ONCE…discovered when my young son was eating it. I threw it away, called the doctor, and he said it wouldn’t hurt my son. He said worms in grains were not harmful (protein)…but worms in meat are harmful!!! I won’t be doing any “dry canning” soon!!! TY for this VERY INFORMATIVE video!!! 💕
You are very welcome! This is a great comment--thank you for sharing. We are nearly the same age!
When my friend lived in Isreal she bought wheat berries. She returned them because of worms. They took the bag and dumped it on their pile of wheat. She learned that in Isreal ALL wheat has worms because of the climate.
I’m so glad I found your channel! I love learning about all the food saving methods that you have shown us, you are a waterfall of awesome information!😉
You are so welcome! Thank you so much.
A vacuum sealer may be my next preservation tool to get. Mice get into my garage. I can't store things in buckets or totes w/o them being gnawed through & eaten by mice. So far it has worked for me to store dry beans & grains in 1/2 gallon mason jars.
Would some metal garbage cans work to store in?
You need a cat or 2,lol
@@silverhustlin1390 agreed, my daughter's kitty cat is I think pregnant, shall I send some? 😻😸😹
Bravo! As a new canner and a long-time researcher, it made my heart sing to watch you lend your voice in describing the fact-based methods of vacuum sealing dried food as opposed to what is circulating around the internet. As I 'surf' through canning channels on YT, I am more than a little dismayed by the lack of basic scientific understanding individuals show who present canning methods. A qualifying statement usually precedes a method demonstration; this is the way I do it or by announcing they are a 'rebel canner'. I have yet to hear one of these presenters reference the USDA or The National Center for Home Food Preservation as a source. Conversely, you always site sources. I have chosen to subscribe to only two food preservation channels because they are science-based; RoseRed Homestead and Carol Thrifty Chic. All the others are a waste of my time or downright scary.
Thank you for your comments, and I couldn't agree more.
Thanks for the references I'm a brand new sub and so thrilled to have found this channel.. I've seen the rebels lol, my mom canned lots and had me help growing up but I lost her at 17 and didn't bother prepping food until a women I met have me bottles and a water bath canner! So I made jam.. then came a dehydrator lol I've been catching deals on organic mushrooms and love having them on hand I'm building quite a collection of jars! once I hear that right ping and see no moisture I use my food saver and oxy absorbers! Now I'm feeling the need to can meat so I'll be looking into a electric pressure cooker
You did it again, great information. I love to learn and you are a great teacher. Thank-you
You are so welcome! Thank you.
Wow ... am I glad I found you! ... a technically competent person who can communicate. Thank you so much for your efforts in producing this video - and there there are so many more from which I will learn.
Glad to see your rebuttal to the dry canning videos...I'm just diving into this (prepping and all) and was about to try it with beans/rice ect...the jar with oxygen killers is so much easier and faster anyhow! Learning much. Great videos!
So glad you found this video before you proceeded! Some of the videos on oven dry canning that are out there scare me to death! Thanks for your comments.
Thank you! I get frustrated when I see bad canning practices on the internet, especially when the channel or blog has hundreds of thousands of subscribers. It just feels very irresponsible.
I appreciate you talking through the science of canning!
Thank you. That makes me nervous as well.
Thank you I appreciate that you've taken your precious time to teach those of us who's interested to learn, lessonsss learn, STAY SAFE AND BLESS
Just goes to show UA-cam doesn't care about the actually safety of it's content. only selectively.
Would have loved having you as my science teacher!
Thank you! I would have loved having you as my student!
Right!
Ditto 👍🏼👍🏼
MAN do I appreciate you!!!!!
You'll NEVER KNOW how much your well organized, clear, concise, BEAUTIFUL WAY OF TEACHING means to me & I'm sure DO MANY OTHERS. I agree...you are ESSENTIAL. You are my GO TO AUTHORITY!!!
Thank you so much for this video!! I have just started learning about canning and preserving foods and came across several videos giving instructions for dry canning that left me feeling a bit overwhelmed and concerned. I am SO glad I found your video also. This is really valuable and important information! Looking forward to learning more from you.
I've just started learning about food preservation also. I don't even bother with watching a bunch of other channels. Pam knows her business and it's worth it to listen.
Thank you, for setting the record straight. Love your humor.
Thank you! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You are only one who uses science for safety and I completely trust you.
All of my canning and storing is done your way. I really appreciate your help. 💖⚘
Wow, thank you!
Me too. Now that I know the why’s. 👍
Of all of the food prepping videos I have watched to educate myself, yours are the most formative. I have a bachelor's degree in science, so your explanations are right up my alley! I am so happy I stumbled across you during my research. I am your new forever fan!
That is awesome! Welcome, and thank you for your kind words.
I am 40 just getting into canning now wish I had paid attention to my grandma years ago but it’s never too late I guess. I too have been stalking the UA-cams with all different methods to the point where I was getting overwhelmed. I have thankfully found this video and within the first five minutes I subbed and it’s the only canning channel I have subbed. I know I can go and watch all the other videos you have now and confidently learn from you the way I should have learned years ago. I have skipped ahead though much shorter videos I’ve come across. But this channel, I watched every second of this one. The wealth of knowledge you have on the subject is awesome and the relief of knowing it’s just not as complicated as all the noise out there can make it sound. I did think semi cooking non cooked dry food even at low temps would alter the item at least some from its original intended dry form but no one addressed this until you. Thank you for putting this information out and providing a service so that people in my generation can still learn this stuff properly and now I can pass this to my single digit aged kids to keep proper and safe canning (and repacking) alive.
Thanks for subbing, and welcome!
I have wondered about ‘dry canning’ thank you for being specific from a scientific point of view. Love your humor. Laughter is one of the best parts of life.
So glad you enjoyed my little joke. Sometimes I just can't help myself!
Isn't it nice when the easier way is better than the hard way? Thanks for a great video.
You got that right! Thanks for watching.
@@RoseRedHomestead well, what do I do with the beans and rice and flour I’ve already oven canned? I was well meaning and now that I know the truth, what do I do? Thank you for your time answering my question. ❤️
@@michellekeys4755 If I were in your shoes, I would simply open the jars and drop in an oxygen absorber. Should be just fine.
@@RoseRedHomestead
Would a break bleeder to take out all of the oxygen be OK?
I put my rice in the freezer for 2 days, then set it out to dry.
Should I add a bay leaf? Or is just sucking out the air enough?
To add...I’m storing everything in mason jars
Very well done👏 Thank you for sharing this video. I watched a UA-cam video discussing this same topic and she went so far as calling the jar company and asked them if it is a safe method. They told her NO and the jars are not made to heat in the oven. It can cause cracks in the glass.
That is very true! Thanks for sharing.
I always thought dry canning just meant vacuum sealing the food in jars... never heard of the oven dry canning until now. I’m so glad you dig deeper on this to teach us about it. Your knowledge is so essential. Thank you for all you do!
You are so welcome! The word "canning" has lost is true meaning in today's world where anything put in a jar and processed or not becomes canning. I am a purist and want people to truly know what is considered canning and what isn't.
As a new canner I always do research. So may people have videos with unsafe canning methods.
Your tutorials are precise and extensive. Thank you.
You are so welcome! I love to hear that you always do research!
During the BIG FREEZE in Texas I watched many prepping videos. Your videos really opened my eyes and I now realize that a lot of those preppers go a LOT overboard. Thank you!
We are not that extreme, but maybe they would outlast us if things got really bad. But I like a more practical approach!
It is a pleasure to meet you! I have been searching for preservation methods that make sense. I’m pleased that you took the time to share with us. I feel much better and more empowered to make the right decisions for my family. May God bless and keep you and your loved ones.
Thank you so much. We really appreciate that and are so happy for you to join our community.
You just can't beat a scientific education. Thanks for posting.
So glad I found you. Had just watched a video on dry oven canning & it was so time consuming. Just starting on this journey of storing. I live in Australia and since the lockdowns due to Covid I have become very aware of possible food restrictions at supermarkets, so am so happy to find people like yourself who have so much experience & knowledge. Can't wait to get started. Thankyou again.
You are so welcome! We are glad you found us as well!
I’m so glad you made this video! This has been so confusing to me. I trust your educational background and the basis of your theories. I have heard people say to slit the flour bags when vacuum sealing, but since you said the bags are porous that isn’t necessary. Thank you for making this video
I know the flour packages of the flour I use work that way, but it is possible that some don't. If you try it and the bag doesn't suck in, then you might want to slit it. My flour bags really suck in so I know they are porous! Thanks for your comments.
@@RoseRedHomestead Thank you for your response
Rose, you are a precious resource of information, however one little thing: FYI - Vacuum machines do not remove ALL of the oxygen. No consumer grade machine creates a perfect (zero millibars) vacuum, they vary in efficiency from machine to machine. I include an O2 absorber in all my vac sealed packages to "sop up" any O2 that evades the vacuum machine, absorbers are much cheaper than replacing the food.
Thanks for your channel!
oh no! I wonder if that means I need to open all my canning jars of vacuum sealed dried (store bought) egg noodles and add an absorber???
@@Clouds457 you may want to research storage for egg noodles. I do not think it is recommended to store them for long term. It’s the eggs I believe. Other pasta, yes… I vacuum seal sometimes with but mostly without oxygen absorbers. Flour, corn meal, beans, barley and oats I always use an oxygen absorber. I’ve switched from jars to Mylar bagels for a lot of items too.
You are my new and only “go to” for ANY type of food preservation and preparation instruction. I trust you. Thanks for making that possible. 👍🏻❤️
Thank you! I questioned dry canning and you just answered my questions! You are a great teacher and I appreciate the research you do.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Same here.
"There goes one right now".
Where were you when I was in college? 🤩
LOL! Glad you appreciated my humor.
thank you RedRose. I was searching and searching thinking so many statements just couldn't be right. This is really helpful!
I have been following your channel for a couple years now; and, I want to tell you how very thankful I am for all of your hard work. Most of what my Grandmother taught me has held up but some has not and I thank you for opening my eyes/mind. Now when I have questions, I think: WWPD (What Would Pam Do?) Then I do my research. You do good work -- and it is very important work! Thanks!!
Pam and Jim thank you for making these wonderful videos. I highly questioned all of those canning videos also. I have only ever used the ball canning book for preserving foods. Thank you Pam for the very valuable information given on this video. I will be sharing this video with family and friends. Great job guys 👍🏻!!
You are so welcome! Thank you for your kind comments and for your support by sharing our videos. We appreciate that!
Great information, have been binge watching you for days. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge and so very clearly and to the point! Blessings to you and your family.
Awesome, thank you!
I wish I could give you more than 1 thumbs up! I recently started canning and have been following you. Like so many here, I wondered about dry canning and decided to check it out. Thankfully your video popped up and I knew immediately that I would get the correct information. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and kitchen with us. I too busted out laughing at your “floating spore” humor.
Thank you!! I have been using the Food Saver jar attachments and love how quick and easy it is! Just recently saw several videos showing the long, tedious oven method and immediately thought I was doing it wrong. Surely a lengthy process is better ... 🙄 I am SO happy to have found this video with your scientific explanation!!!
Thank you. I too have seen some videos of " Dry Canning" and thought something wasn't wasn't right about that but didn't know enough to challenge anyone about it. I'm just glad I didn't do it. I only re-package when the store bought packaging is torn. I don't really concern myself about all the hype there seem to be about. You did a great video here, again thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching.
I tried countless times to explain to people there is no such thing as dry canning to preserve food. Sadly, all my effort fell on deaf ears. Thank you for an honest, thorough, and scientific explaination as to why it is not a safe method to preserve food. I will be linking this video to educated others on this unsafe practice. To be fully honest, I have already linked your Instant Pot Max video using the probe to bring awareness of safe canning practices to others. So hopefully, we can make a difference in the canning world. Thank you for another great video!
Thanks for helping accurate information to get out there. It will take a lot of us to spread accurate information!
I am watching again.. How many important points to be reminded. Thank you for your explanations and your effort to teach us. I am learning all these ways on preserving food and storing, and I am so glad you took this time to provide us so much. I really appreciated.
Sooooo glad your video popped up when I was looking for information about “dry canning” flour. You saved me so much time and effort by sharing your information. Thank you! 👍🏻🙂
Love your practical approach!! Thank you for the wealth of information shared!
I'm new to your channel and wanted to thank you for all the awesome, detailed, scientific information and explanations (and I laughed so hard when you "spotted a spore" I love the comic relief!) God bless you!
I could listen to you all day!! Great content!!
Thank you for this information! I was just ready to try the ‘dry canning’ method I watched on you tube on several different videos. I will continue using the vacuum sealer and my sealed buckets and now will start using tubs with original packaging. Appreciate you!
You Confirmed what I thought. Again you have done the hard work for us. I also use the King Arthur flour. I do put it in the freezer for several days as I rotate through my supply. I will try the vacuum sealer bag method. Having a good supplier is a comfort. All canning and food preservation supplies are at a premium here in Southern AZ. Thank you and Jim again.
Thanks for sharing. Yes--supplies here in Southern Utah are almost non-existent. I am about out of jars!
@@RoseRedHomestead I need pints and Target here is our best bet. We’re are like you and Jim as I usually want things In Pints as opposed to quarts. I’m headed there tomorrow. I’ll let you know. Have a great weekend.
@@roseannejacquette9347 I looked at our Target this week, and they are still out. I am now wanting 64 oz (2 quart) jars for our freeze drying as well.
@@RoseRedHomestead I have a few 2 quarts and have gotten some of mine at Walmart. They put them up on the very top shelf that no one can reach and you don’t see easily. .
@@roseannejacquette9347 Thanks. I will check there.
I'm so glad you done this video. After I stopped laughing at the floating toxin, I could finish watching. That was so funny. I thought the dry canning method was questionable too. My brother is a OTR truck driver and sometimes he gets damaged packaged goods. When these foods come my way, I need to repackage and oxygen absorbers are what I use. They work great. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your comments.
I truly appreciate your science background and diligence with regards to preserving food .
Thank you for caring enough to speak out and show us the proper and safe way to can and preserve our food. By the way , I was able to pick up my dehydrator today . It’s not a freeze dryer, but I am getting ready to dehydrate eggs that I learned from your well explained video. Thank you and bless you for continuing to teach. You are amazing and truly appreciated. I am grateful
Rose, not sure how I ended up finding your channel, but I am enjoying it! You cracked me up when you pointed out the imaginary spore. Thanks for imparting your wisdom to help me learn about food preservation via various means.
Thanks for great info. I was especially concerned about oven-heating open jars of flour, as I've heard in the past that flour can be highly flammable, and even explosive. Glad to have received alternative tips from a seasoned pro.
Glad it was helpful!
You are such an amazing woman I have followed you for a long long time I’m just amazed at everything that I have learned from you keep on going you’re doing great God bless!
Wow, thank you! Thanks for watching.
You are so eloquent and smart. It is refreshing to see someone so professional with such great information….. thank you!

Awesome! Thank you!
I loved it too! Needed the chuckle tonight!!!
Thank you for this video. I was researching this method since I've never had an issue storing dry goods in a jar without "processing" like that.
You are welcome!
Thank you for that enlightening information regarding dry canning vs vacuum sealing. I've never done the 'dry canning' method, but I'm happy to have heard your take on it before I wasted my time trying it. Thanks again, Pam. 😀 ❤
I am just starting to preserve food for long term storage and I was intrigued by "dry canning". I'm SO glad I came across your video. Thank you for the awesome information.
I had my rice jars in the oven when I clicked on this video 😂. Gzzz
I want you to know how much I have appreciated your videos and all of the time and research you and your sweet Jim have done. You’re helping a whole new generation join the canning world! Thank you!!
Wow, thank you
I am so glad I found your channel. Loved the Hypothetical Woman.
Welcome aboard! So glad you joined us.
I’m so glad that you did this video! Not only did you explain safety, but you saved me a lot of time vs dry canning!!
I love how you explain everything so well. Thank you 🙏
I have watched several videos about freezing and dry canning. Thank you for a very informative video that makes more sense than any of the others. I will continue to vacuum seal and not worry about bugs!
Thank you! If you vacuum seal, you won't have to worry about the bugs! They won't survive without oxygen.
I was trying to figure out vacuum sealing food, not dry canning. If we vacuum seal oats, flour and anything dry is that safe? Basically just repackaging the food without oxygen. They say don't use oxygen absorbers with brown sugar or it will get hard. I didn't see a video of hers on there. Any help would be appreciated.
Finally! Thanks for clearing that up! I feel the same way about canning butter, making it shelf stable for five years. I honestly feel sad for the people who follow their advice!
You are so welcome!
First time watching this channel. Best video I have seen on this subject. Subbed and notifications on. Really well done! Thank you.
Welcome! And thanks for subbing. We are so happy to have you join our community. Thanks for your kind words.
I love your sense of humor and the brilliant truth in your videos. I recommend your videos to people ALL the time. THANK YOU for your videos. :)
Thank you so much! We appreciate your support.
BRAVO PAM!!!! Thank you for making this video. I've watched several different people "dry can" with their sterile jars rim down on dirty oven racks.... after sterilizing them. As always you hit on all the facts. I laughed out loud when you saw the spores traveling by🤣
Glad it was helpful! And thanks for laughing at my joke!
Thank you for this video! I was just in the process of “canning” rice and oats using the oven method (I had seen on UA-cam). I had just put the lids on and then happened to come across this video. After watching this video I decided to take the lids off. I can verify what you said about there being moisture in the jar. The lids were wet underneath when I pulled them off. I am going to let the jars cool and then either use oxygen absorbers or vacuum seal!
Wow--talk about just in time learning. That is fantastic. So glad you were able to switch directions to a more safe path.
Thank you so very much for this great information. New to all of this so it’s super important I do as much research as possible. Your videos have been the best so far and I continue to learn something new each day .
You are amazing ! I just today watched a couple of the oven canning videos.... BUT ... being new to all of this ... I figured I needed to get another opinion from someone more experienced & seasoned ! So very glad I did you surpass many on you tube !!!
Thank you & GOD bless you & your family ALWAYS 💯❣ LOVE & PRAYERS FROM TEXAS ❣
Diane: You are so welcome! Jim
Thanks for your thorough video on a much needed topic on UA-cam. when I started my journey of food preservation, I also found countless video on dry canning. I later joined a Master Food Preservation group in my area and asked the question of the dry canning safety - was told that it is not an approved method - additionally the heat distribution in the oven is not assured.
Exactly right. You were so smart to join a master group like that.
Hi I just found your wonderful videos today on u tube. I just 💘 you and thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge and time involved in doing all these things I was to afraid to try on my own.
You give me so much confidence. Bless your heart. You are sending so much love to the world.

YOU my dear are a SOUND VOICE amid the “cloudy Canning craze Phase!!!!” 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Love that! Thank you.
I really enjoy your videos! I have learned so much and I appreciate your non biased platform. Thank you again!!
Just found this in our spam folder--not sure why it went there. So glad you enjoy the videos. Thanks.
Thank you! This video was exactly what I needed. Straight to the point, practical, no nonsense 👍
As always, love your methods and information. Thank you! And, thanks to you, we got our first vacuum sealer this week and have had lots of fun re-packaging meat for our new freezer. Now we will go on to dry canning, per your training! Can’t wait for each video to come out!
That is awesome! So proud of you!
I absolutely love your video and explanations for the scientific side of things!!! I've seen a lot of videos where people are reusing the glass jars that pasta sauces etc come in and being able to reseal them in a vaccum canister type chamber. I think this is brilliant because I hate throwing out a perfectly good jar, but I'd love to know if you approve of vaccum sealing the repurposed jars for food storage?
Yes, for vacuum sealing, repurposed jars are just fine.
Excellent question. Thank you for asking it.
This was a great video and I learned a lot from it. Thank you for taking the time to thoroughly research this and provide the data to us in such a clear manner. I'm hooked on your channel.
Thanks so much for that information. I was about to start doing some of that "dry canning" but what you have said makes perfect sense. My church has always encouraged us to have a year's supply of food on hand if at all possible. Having lived in apartments most of my life, and raising 5 daughters on my own, it hasn't always been feasible due to cost and lack of space. My girls have never been ones to be prepared for ANYthing..but I think it's time for me to invest in a vacuum sealer and a small dehydrator because when things get REALLY bad in this country they're going to come running to Mom to take care of them. I've really been enjoying your channel.🌹👍👏🤗❤️🙏
