TIP for storing empty jars: can't remember where I saw this but when you empty a jar, wash it and fill it with water and put the lid back on. Then store it in your empty spot. That way if you ever need water, you have some. If not, use it for something else when you need the jar. Brilliant!

I heard it from the Provident Prepper. They recommend sterilizing water a batch at a time in the jars so it can be used without needing to filter if needed.

@dannmartinez2145 Excellent tip. But be sure the jars are not in direct sunlight with water in them. The water acts like a magnifier, and it can start a fire. Ask me how I know. (Actually, it wasn’t me that started the fire, but I was still at home when my mother did.)

I thank you so much for posting this comment. I prefer to reuse and repurposed a great deal of stuff most people consider to be trash. On of my favorite things to do when I purchase certain items such as onions, carrots, bell peppers, garlic, ginger, or any other items is to prepare it for cooking use and fill up glass jars. I store them in my fridge until I am ready to cook something. This is something I started doing years ago to avoid having to do it when I wanted to add them to the meals I was cooking. I use them pretty fasy, and nothing was ever wasted.

I love the canned cherries from Aldi, they are very popular in Germany. We drain the liquid and cook it with some cornstarch to thicken it, add the cherries and some cinnamon in and eat the hot cherries on top of waffles with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or vanilla custard.

Agreed! It’s amazing!

Those canned fruits, vegetables, and meats look wonderful. I encourage you to put a 3-4 inch barrier on the front sides of your racks for security purposes (like earthquakes, accidents, etc). Also, you can turn your storage jars upside down in the boxes so they stay cleaner. I also put wax paper or shelving liner in the base of the boxes to help keep the rims safe from damage. With newly purchased jars, I take the lids and bands off the jars and store separately. I think maybe the lids will last longer and be better for canning if they are not compressed with the bands. This is a wonderful pantry!

Your canning shelves are stunning! Your product is a sight to behold. I’m sure your family can taste the love you put into everything!

Wow that's awesome and such a clean basement too! Not to even mention a ton of work! Holy moly you go girl, you make the rest of us look like lazy bums. Great video. Love and hugs from Texas 🐰🐣

It's wonderful that you have such a family heritage. I wish my paternal grandmother was still alive so that I could learn canning from her. I really enjoyed seeing your basement. My husband and I are in the process of purchasing a new farm. It has a house that was built in 1965 and has a basement that I am planning to convert part of it into a pantry/root cellar area.

All my brain is thinking is “ wow all those jars must have cost a small fortune “ It is absolutely amazing though I am very jealous!!!

If you water bath can you can reuse the jars from your stores, as long as the lid isn’t damaged it’s good to go. But yes the jars are a small fortune but for long term storage it’s a good investment. I’m very jealous of it too, we will have our own storage one day!

So beautiful. It's great to have real knowledge on canning. My grandma and mother canned a lot of blackberries in their days. We loved having blackberry dumplings growing up.

Thank you for showing us your pantry, I am still learning it is good to see someone who knows a lot and is willing to share info. Last year a friend gave us a giant batch of chili peppers, so I canned them up in pint jars with bread and butter pickle mix. So good, like sweet hot candy. Great in mac and cheese.

I grew up doing this. My wife and I are getting back into canning. Great job looks awesome.

We love the canned blueberries and strawberry/ rhubarb. Amazing!!

Thank you for the walk about your canning. You have me hooked in. I myself. Do a lunch in a jar. With my Puerto rican jerk meats and rice. Also yes on the butter and sweet potatoes

Hello from New Mexico! When we process green chile, we roast and let them sweat in plastic bags until they're cool enough to handle. This makes them easier to peel, and oftentimes, you can kind of squeeze the skins off and seeds out at the same time.

Thanks for so many tips I can glean. Your vegetables are so handy. I raise my own and can, So easy to open a few jars into a pot and have a meal. As for the asparagus, you sure learn what the family likes, and doesn't. There's no way around the mess of canning your own anaheim green chilis. I did so many they will last us a few years. It was tough. And this spring will freeze or can my own grown shelling peas. Yes, tough, too. But, they'll last a long time in large supply. I loved your larder, and I love prepping. Handy in all this snow we're getting. Regards from far north California
