Mushrooms - Pressure Canned


Recommended Posts

Bear in mind, this is currently a work in process so as things move along, I'll post more pictures...

 

I picked up 40lbs of mushrooms yesterday and am in the process of homecanning them. I figured I'd take pictures and show you the process so that you could feel comfortable home canning mushrooms too!

 

The recipe is simple

 

Mushrooms

Salt (if desired)

 

lol

 

The first thing I do is wash my mushrooms well.

Once the canner starts to vent steam, I let it vent for 10 minutes, put my weighted gauge on, and process them for 45 minutes.

 

Here's the final product...and yes, I'll wash them in soapy water with a little vinegar tomorrow to remove the mineral deposits from the canner...lol

I bought them at the grocery store...they had them on a good sale this week...the last time they had them on sale was last April (cause that was the last time I canned them lol). I paid $1.99/lb...they normally go for $2.99/lb so I saved $40 with the 40lbs I bought. I might be able to find them cheaper if I did some searching but I have so much going on right now that when I saw the sale, I went for it.

No, I wouldn't do that. Most mushroom cannot be canned for safety reasons, so I wouldn't want to push the envelope here.

 

Besides, mushrooms release so much liquid when they're cooked and a full packed jar of raw mushrooms would probably turn into a half jar after cooking during the processing.
