My recipe has 2 dozen cobs and 2c of 1% milk and some margarine in it. Would you recommend bottling? I know there are conflicting reports canning with the milk and would like someone else's opinion.

I would leave in the husk in a cool location out of direct sunlight for processing first thing the following day if something unexpected came up that prevented me from processing that day.Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-32098976642259074212013-04-11T15:56:21.355-04:002013-04-11T15:56:21.355-04:00I just bought 37 ears of fresh silver queen corn f...I just bought 37 ears of fresh silver queen corn from Florida. I don't have time to pressure can them tonight but will do it tomorrow.

I really can't help you with the oatmeal although I do know some use it in meatloaf. <br /><br />My basic meatloaf consists of fresh ground meat (beef, turkey, chicken, pork or venison), eggs, bread crumbs, ketchup or bbq sauce, dry mustard, and seasonings according to the meat used. From there, I add extras as desired but usually stick to the basic for canning.<br /><br />Milk is the perfect binder for meatballs whether for fresh use, freezing or canning. I don't season my meatballs.Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-78464084374025128312013-04-07T17:18:06.131-04:002013-04-07T17:18:06.131-04:00OK, that sounds good, what kind of bread do you us...OK, that sounds good, what kind of bread do you use in your meat loaf?<br />whole wheat or white?<br />what is your recipe for your meatloaf so I can see if it varies much from what I use? I was wondering if crackers and oatmeal couldn't be used as a binder what you would use and you said you use milk (?) as a binder??? I thought the bread crumbs would be the binder. Do you buy the bread crumbs from the supermarket?<br />Forgive me for asking so many questions.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15148815052629782858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-75403253032347991242013-04-07T15:31:41.390-04:002013-04-07T15:31:41.390-04:00Hi Linda, with respect to the USDA - they make a r...Hi Linda, with respect to the USDA - they make a recommendation based on quality or safety but do not tell you which they based it on. If a recommendation such as low acid foods must be pressure canned, then I follow those guidelines. Cheese, milk, eggs and butter can be successfully canned without a safety issue. It is all about quality, with these products giving less that ideal results. There are videos on YouTube for canning each but let me warn you, I feel after seeing the results that canning cheese is a waste of resources all the way around. The sugars in plain milk caramelize so the product is dark tan, something that some do not find appealing plus the caramelization would give a flavour change. Eggs become rubbery and the only thing I've canned with eggs as an ingredient is meatloaf. <br /><br />I use milk as the binder in meatballs when I can them without a problem. I don't use any fillers. I don't use oatmeal for meatloaf any time so can't comment. I do however can meatloaf made using my basic recipe which includes eggs and bread crumbs without a problem. If you are planning to can meatloaf, I highly recommend using the widemouth straight should jars for easy removal later.Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-21993167512543029972013-04-07T14:20:16.720-04:002013-04-07T14:20:16.720-04:00Thanks, May I ask another question?

It can safely be omitted when canning vegetables including cream style corn as well as a wide variety of other home canned foods.Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-58720861980558848692013-04-05T11:31:44.594-04:002013-04-05T11:31:44.594-04:00Do you not use "Salt" when canning your ...Do you not use "Salt" when canning your cream corn?
