RE: Preserving Cucumbers as Fresh Pack Pickles - Sweet and Dill Varieties

in #homesteading6 years ago

yayyyy very very nice work! i know this took a lot of work to produce this blog ... my hats off to you. how did you make your shor videos? i actually like your method more than the double boiler, pressure cooker method. thank you for sharing the reference and wow what a lot of work. there are many diff ways to do this but overall seems like any method equals a lot of work lol how long is the recommended shelf life? ive seen so many diff thoughts on this. one lady i know cans refular foods like spaghetti n meatballs or meats like pork amd chicken and beef combos. i tried it and got a lil sick. i dunno. guess if shtf i might eat anything but i think id prefer beans, rice and veggies. nuts, berries. of we dont have total blackout ...

Thanks - Yeah this was definitely a longer one - so many important steps to fresh pack pickle preserve safely :) I admit I do have a few posts i've held up while chipping away at this one :) I will conservatively give these pickles 1 year for best taste and 2 years on the shelf without worry - although I doubt they will lose much flavor, maybe texture, I'll know for sure in a year and a half or so - if I havent eaten them all. I would for sure be using a pressure cooker and following directions precisely for canning meat - it can be done safely - jerky I would personally trust more if it came down to it.

The video clips are 4-6 second .GIF animations that I created on http://giphy.com, with short videos that I uploaded there, then copied the link to the post. It lets you adjust where the clip starts and ends on the video.
