MicroMoment: Re-Canning Bulk Foods

Is it OK to re-can bulk foods. This is a question often asked of us. Although we don't often do it, in this video we show how it can be done safely.

Any products we mention or show on our videos have been purchased with our own money and are recommended or not based on our own experience.

Dear Rosered, I have learned and applied so much from you. There are tons of food storage channels out there but I only rely on you. For your years of experience, for your science and your explanation. I learned from you how to preserve safe food in many ways. I'm really grateful for that! My great-grandparents ran a farm and made everything themselves and stored food in various ways to get through the winter. A skill that has been lost in the modern world but is of great use in these times. Thank you for everything you taught me! You are a woman after my own heart, kind regards from the Netherlands.

Yes. In these times ☹ a little reduced food value is better than zero food.

I reached $90k today from renting and reselling modular homes from Proopsy. Thank you for all the knowledge and insights you've shared with me over the past few months. I began this journey in November 2024. Financial education is essential for over 70% of the population, as only a few are truly literate in this area.

She tell how to do things, but more important for me, she tell why!

Thanks!

As always, very thoughtful. I know a lot of people who can't think outside the box. I trust in what you say because you use logic and science.

I have been wanting to can bulk foods for awhile, but never knew the proper way to go about doing it. Your video has been very helpful. I am going to get myself a USDA canning book and the test strips and start canning bulk foods for my family. Thanks so much for your insight.

MY MOTHER AND I PUT UP SO MANY TOMATOES, CORN, AND ALL KINDS OF VEG. WE GREW IN OUR GARDEN. PUT CHICKENS IN FREEZER. I LOVE TO REMEMBER OUR TIMES TOGETHER AS I WATCH YOU.

[roraev]

I think the thing I appreciate most about your work is that you explain the thought processes required to make a logic and reasonable conclusion. And you tell us where and how to do our research, especially what we should be looking for.- Thanks again!

Last year, I invested $27k in Proopsy modular homes and made about $40k within the first year for renting it out—and it’s still growing. I’ve always been a strong advocate for pre fabricated homes because it’s been incredibly rewarding for me. Looking forward to achieving financial freedom soon. And by the way, awesome content, brother!

Awe Rose Red & Jim, how do I express my gratitude?! I have learned SO much from your channel and I’ve begun applying that knowledge to our food preparedness. I found your channel last week and have been watching all your episodes. I’m looking forward to your book and every new episode you and Jim produce. Keep up the great work! Thank you thank you thank you for sharing all your experience and knowledge with us.

[normaortega]

Thank you for teaching relevant things to these unusual times! Your ethic and caring manner is quite evident. Y'all are greatly appreciated! Thanks again.

Thank you dear Pam, i am re-visiting water bath canning after many many moons. Your straight-forward, no-nonsense approached coupled with the science/reasons behind what you do are refreshing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us. Namaste!

[sarahcourtney]

Several years ago I had purchased a gallon jug of Sweet Baby Rays Spicy BBQ Sauce at a bargain price. Since it`s just the 2 of us, I re-processed it.. waterbath method into pints, after doing some research as you`ve shown. I was very pleased with the results. I agree..I`ll only do certain items..& nothing that is fragile. Thanks so much a video for steering everyone in the right direction.

I thank you for addressing this . Our house has taken on doing this with large canister of orange juice by canning pint jars. This address small family’s using not letting it going over and spoiled. Thank you again for helping so many of us be better steward of our own life.

[joeyhardin]

Thank you. The only thing I recan is tomato sauce. A can of tomato sauce in the grocery store is $1.25, I can get a #10 can at the BIG box store for $3.50, so I purchase three of those and run them through the pressure canner... 16 pints of tomato sauce, about 0.62 cents. God Bless and stay safe.

[nancykolb]

I have also rescanned store bought tomatoes and even though they are high in acid if the recipe calls for the addition of lemon juice, I add it. This gives me piece of mind that there is enough acidity. Thank you for this. I have not seen any other videos on doing this.❤️

[lindaelliott]

Absolutely love your micro moments. It gives a lot of really helpful information in a short time. You are my go to because you know the science behind all of it.

[barbeewear]

Thank you for your science based steps for safe canning. If I have a question or concern about a food preservation technique I know I can come here for a thorough answer. I love salsa verde and this is something I would love to do to stock my pantry.

[danam.]

Success is in the details THANK YOU for showing us the important details. And the importance of acknowledging that we CAN'T push the boundaries simply because something looks like a deal.

[firequeen]

This video is amazing! So glad I can take advantage of the larger sizes when I find a great deal. I only can in the IP Max ( thank you for your testing on that!) and do small batch because I’m one person so pints and half pints are perfect for me. So many blessings sent to you.
