Thank you, Christina! So happy to have you here!

Great job Carter! I read comments to see how people respond. A few questions about internal temperature reaching the temp needed to "kill" any bad stuff. People amaze me sometimes. Heres a thought for those folks. You set your oven for 350° or 400° and bake, roast etc right? Temp stays at what you set it at right? Oven is venting constantly, due to "pressure build up"...same as a pressure cooker. You trust your oven to cook thru something frozen and eat it, or a roast and eat it, yet dont think a jar of potatoes would be safe? Yet its the same concept except its on top of the stove and not in the oven. Come on folks. We can do better than the alphabet agencies.

Not the same concept at all. You really need to dig into the science of dry versus using water canning. And then read up on leaving the peels on root veggies when canning.

We always leave the peels on, I read once where a nutritional scientist said if people were smart, they'd peel the potatoes and throw the potato away and eat the peels, as they have more nutritional value. Plus as side note Red potatoes are good for Psoriasis, my wife use to get it all the time, over 20 years ago we switched to only eating red potatoes as they were supposed to be good for people with Psoriasis, any they were right, she hadn't had a bout of it in 20 years.

@growandpreserve - I DID IT! I couldn't figure out how to post a photo of my beautiful potatoes, but I DID IT! Can't wait to try them! This time I did quartered gold, they were quite large, and whole baby red and white. I didn't think I would ever find a way to preserve and USE all my home grown or store bought potatoes. I detest peeling and dicing, especially last minute. Now, I DONT have to! Better yet, hubby can grab a jar and throw them in the air-fryer or on the grill plate with his links and he has dinner on days Im too exhausted to cook. Next up is diced for hash browns! I know the original recipe came from elsewhere, but you have been such a blessing for all your hard work posting and sharing your knowledge, successes and learning curves.

I also dry packed small whole potatoes around the same time, they have been fine for well over a year.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge I have always been intejust did in pressure Canning are other food items and potatoes were one of them I have only done water bath Canning And that knowledge came from my grandmother who is now not with us, Along with all her recipes so I have counted on my memories and some knowledge from seasoned canners to help. Your video has opened a new door for me as I have a pressure canner which I have not used yet, And will be testing it out probably with your potato recipe soon. I have also done dehydrating and I did potatoes which I did not use citric acid, But I blanched them in boiling salted water for a minute or 2 and then plunged into an ice bath, then towel dried. After that I dehydrated them, And the color came perfect like the way they were when I first peeled them. I have only done sliced potatoes and Julian potatoes. But I can't wait to try your method thank you so much you gotta like and I have subscribed to your channel thank you.

Carter, thank you for showing how you canned potatoes. I watched your first video and gave it a try and it was a huge hit with my family and my teenage son loves to open a jar and pop them in the air fryer! And perfect for frying up with onion and sausage. Looking forward to canning more potatoes from the garden. I also did country style cubed hashbrowns with green bell peppers, another hit!

We tried dry packed potatoes back in January 2024, as they had a great sale on them so we bought 60 lbs. We did some quartered and some rough diced about 3/4 inch to an inch. Well the diced turned out to be some of the best breakfast potatoes I ever had, and being so easy to make, makes them the best. The quarter cut we smashed on a bake sheet like you did and they were fantastic too. These potatoes really help getting supper made up fast since we both work through the week although the wife gets home about 30 minutes before me, she gas most of it done by the time I'm changed out of my uniform.

Sounds like there was still excess excess starch and water in the potatoes. Not a huge deal. They're absolutely fine to eat. I would just rinse the extra starch off the potatoes at the bottom of the jar and dry thoroughly before crisping them. Next time, go a bit longer on both the citric acid and the salt soak. Both are very important for the best product.@@sandysmith1750

Other than the color caused by oxidation in the potatoes, which makes them less eye appealing, there is nothing wrong with them. Perfectly safe to eat. If you really can't abide the color, simply trim it off. Oxidation is determined by a specific acid in starchy potatoes. This is the main reason I rarely use russets for cooking, period. A good yellow or red potato gives me the results I like, even for baking, but I really enjoyed your experiment and I'm going to try dry canning. I didn't know it was safe to dry can....

Given the power up and power down time of PC probably only worth doing in a full large 'double rack' canner.

If you take the “water juice” and let it dry then put it in the mini processor after it has dried and then you have potato starch and is even better than cornstarch. Once it is a dried and then pulverized you can put it in a container that says Potato Starch to switch with your cornstarch! I found and figured it out by accident! We always had a little pot of water that was turned off when it started to boil then when you use a small tongs to pick it up and then you slide them on top of the jars with a ring put to them tightly with hand strong tightening is all on the jar.

I’m talking about I don’t think I quite said it right but the water when you cut it up and soak it or if you grate your potatoes raw then that’s the perfect amount to use for drying etc. but I have dishes traditional meals and to thicken the liquid you just add the clumps of grated potatoes with a big spoon and stir it gently in a 3” diameter then keep finding a new spot and it can be boiling liquid and it works like magic bcz you can instantly tell how much thickening you want or need bcz the thickening spreads. No need to cool it down to add the thickening.

Thank you so much, Sandy! The hashbrowns are really great. My upcoming video for week 2 of the pantry challenge shows how perfect they are with corned beef hash. Yum! So excited for your potato canning journey!

The easy way to dry food for me is to place on a towel spread out and use the hair dryer. I that does the trick, especially for dehydrating and roasting. Gets rid of excess moisture.

Welcome, Angel! So glad to have you here!

I love russet potatoes. They are very persnickety. They can have more yeast and sugar in them than other potatoes, which makes them great for potato dumplings and potato bread. The will take on flavors very easily. You can tell if the sugar content is hi because you will have black spots on the outside that need trimming. These will also require more salt to season. Reddish color is a high volume of yeast. Salt bathing them, like you do the citric acid, is great for removing the extra sugar and yeast. Use about 3 times the amount you do when you sprinkle it on top. Then drain and do the salt on top & drain. For your mashed potatoes, I would cut them into pieces not larger than 1 inch cubes to allow more penetration of the citric acid and salt. Actually I am going to try some with just the salt, when I do my russets. I have also had russets that had loads of water and others that are dry as dust and take twice the amount of liquid when mashed. Persnickety, but I love them. Thanks for this experiment. It saved me from doing it. LOL. I bet you were having potato overload by the time you were done. Carter - I like your air fryer (capacity and shape) what brand is it, please?

I did try pressure can, Dry canning method on sweet potatoes! Added about a 1/2 t butter to each jar, Had 6 jars. Only ONE SEALED! Put the rest in fridge and they taste wonderful! Just not sure why I had the seals could be the bad Ball lids. I had just canned 7 jars new potatoes with the exact method, all sealed wonderfully but used a different set of lids! Will be trying sweet Potatoes again! Please let us know if you try it. Carter, will you try sweet potatoes PLEASE???!!!!

New sub here! Wish I'd seen you sooner! I love this idea! I get lots of potatoes at my food pantries and just got a Nesco electric pressure canner, so I've started to can things that I don't have room for in my freezer. I know this isn't "approved" but lots of things that used to be aren't now and sometimes I think it's just because no one is doing the testing to see if it's actually safe. Love your ideas and energy!

I've never even thought about it, Kelly! I would probably freeze them instead of canning because I think they would all collapse into the released liquid at the bottom of the jar. You bake them until crispy and then treat them like potato chips? I'm intrigued!

Hi from Germany! I've just found your channel today and I love it, so you have a new subscriber 🙂. I don't have a root cellar or some other option to store my potatoes properly, but for this years harvest I'm looking forward to do canning a lot! Great video, thank you very much. I'm just wondering.. have you ever tried canning these potatoes without oil? All the best for you, Micky

@growandpreserve

Жыл бұрын

So great to have you here, Micky! Welcome. I have never tried them without oil. I would expect that the oil is what helps keep them from sticking together, and it may also provide a bit of protection from discoloration. I'm going to be canning all of mine this year too.

I've heard the news of a potato shortage as well. I canned 16 pints of these after Thanksgiving dinner. Happy to have them on the shelf!

Yes, Canning has changed so much. I’m trying my new Presto. I did bone broth. They all sealed. But I’m not sure the process went through right. I canned Fig Preserves last summer with the jello recipe. It was the best I’d ever tasted. And I don’t like figs. My husband liked the raspberry best. I liked the strawberry. We couldn’t keep our fingers out of it. Gave all 3 of our kids a pint. They loved it. But it called for 12 cups of sugar. I said no way. I did 8 cups & I think I’ll do 6 cups next time. Bought me an ever earring Texas Fig Root & it’s doing well. Says I could have fruit in 3 to 5 years. Looking forward to my figs this summer, if we can scare off the crows. Lol!

Yum. I love figs! I could never find a single fresh fig here in Tennessee last year. It was so frustrating! I may have to get my own fig tree. Have you tried canning with Pomona's Pectin? It allows for no to low sugar in recipes. It's the only thing I use. Why do you think the process in the Presto didn't work right for you? Can I help?

How did the potatoes taste after they set on your shelf for a while? The wedge potatoes looked perfect for seasoning up and frying them. They're already precooked and ready to go. Has brown also looked ready for bacon grease, onion and a few peppers. Yummy.
