I assume you are talking about a pressure canner. If you are completely lost, a pressure canner has locks on it. A water bath canner is just a pot with lid.I just inherited my grandmother's canning set and a ton of jars - all this talk of canning is making me think I should try it while the produce season is still thriving! But I don't know where to start! Any ideas for a beginner?
Any one still hatching out chicks or have an overabundance? Looking to restart our flock before it gets too cold outside. Located in the West Chester area.

With a water bath canner, tomatoes are the best place to start.
With a pressure canner, I began with potatoes. I was happy to find out that if you leave the potatoes in the largest chunks possible (Whole if you are able), they stay firm enough to make good french fries.
Actually, you might want to start with broth. Even a vegetable broth. It is the cheapest thing to try in case you make a mistake.
I had not heard horror stories about canners exploding, but still spent the money to get an All American. I know Fisherlady has one too. They have so many locks, there is no way for anything to go wrong.
Excellent! I love the instructions with photos! Oooh fresh applesauce made from local apples would be great! I would try sauerkraut since cabbage is readily available, but I am the only one who eats it Plus my Aunt back home makes her own for New Years and I can't compete, nor want toI suggest starting with a few water bath recipes before diving in to pressure canning. While it's not hard, it's intimidating at first. Applesauce, sauerkraut, peaches are all great places to start. Potatoes are a good and simple one to try with the pressure canner the first time. We dice ours up before canning and they're half cooked when opened. PERFECT for fried breakfast potatoes! We often use this site when canning to follow directions: Www.pickyourown.org. They give step by step instructions with canning times and procedures.
Love love love your photos, I have 1 million questions. How old were the calves when you got them? When will they be finished? Are you keeping them on pasture? Are you supplementing with alfalfa or grain? Did you get water run out to them or are you carrying it? Are you raising them for meat? Or are they pets? How did you get anabiotic’s, did you need to go through a vet? Ummm... that’s all I’ve got for now
Holsteins and a jersey Holstein mix we tgink.I am sooo jealous of your calves! What kind are they?
Jam was any easy first one for me but it feels like as long as everything is clean and you follow directions its pretty easy. Im making watermelon jam today!!!I just inherited my grandmother's canning set and a ton of jars - all this talk of canning is making me think I should try it while the produce season is still thriving!
