Years ago, when I was a little girl. I used to help my mother make and Can Vegetable Soup. I can remember the smell, the taste, and to this day have never tasted anything at all like it. I have been scouring the internet for a recipe that might even come close, but alas.....I gave up. So...this afternoon, I became inspired and decided that I would just take matters into my own hands and make it myself. So....This is I and Taylor's New recipe for Canned Vegetable Soup.
Taylor's Terrific Canned Vegetable Soup
18 Fresh Tomatoes (Skinned, and pureed)
1 Stalk Celery (Chopped)
1 Med. Onion (Chopped)
5 Med. Carrots (Peeled, Chopped)
2 Med. Zucchini (Diced)
1 lb. Small Golden Potatoes (Cubed)
2 Cans Green Beans
1 Can Light Kidney Beans
1 Can Black Beans
2 Cups of Fresh Corn
4 Jalapeno Peppers (De-seeded, and de-veined)
2 Tbl. Salt (or to taste)
1 Tsp. Pepper
1 Tbl. Garlic
1 Tsp Thyme
1 Tsp. Oregano
1 Tsp. Basil
3 Tsp. Beef Bouillon Granules
3 Tsp. Chicken Bouillon Granules
In a large stock pot add all ingredients and bring to a quick boil. Let boil only 5 min. Take off of heat and pour into waiting sterile jars. Process in a pressure canner for 75 minutes at 10 lbs of pressure. This makes 5-7 qts of soup. ENJOY!
Thank you for sharing this. My former attempts at canning soup were disappointing. This looks very nice.

DeleteHow many quarts does this make?
ReplyDeleteSorry, my notifications for my blog somehow has been turned off and I did not see this. I guess that you know by now that it makes 5-7 qts. I have edited the recipe. I am so sorry for any inconvenience.
DeleteMy canner is by weights which is by 5s, so would 10 lbs of pressure work or does it have to be 12?
ReplyDelete10 lbs. pressure is fine if your elevation is less than 1000 feet above sea level. I've never seen anything call for 12 lbs. psi. Check out https://nchfp.uga.edu/ for everything you need to know about canning. These folks are the ones who set the standard for safety and quality in home preservation.
DeleteThank you ladies for having my back. I have typed that wrong. I really need another set of eyes to read my recipes before posting them. I am just a busy momma of 3 teens, trying to keep all my crazy together. I have edited the recipe to not only include the correct 10 lbs of pressure but also to include the amount of quarts. If it looks like your soup is really thick, just add some water to the mix. As a good rule of thumb when canning soup, you need 2/3 to 1/2 of the jar in vegetables, and the rest liquid. Thank you again!

ReplyDeleteLast fall I learned how to can and made so many different soups for my family. This veggie soup was my absolute favorite! Now that my garden is exploding, I'm making more batches for the winter. Thanks for sharing this delicious and healthy recipe!!!
ReplyDeleteCan I can this using a hot water bath instead of a pressure cooker? If so would it be the same processing time?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately you cannot water bath low acidity foods. Pressure can will be safest!
DeleteErm... It's not Vegetable Soup if you add chicken and beef boullion... I do thank you for the safe cooking times, though!
ReplyDeleteSo add vegetable bullion, geesh
DeleteCan I add cabbage, and if so how much?
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that cabbage cannot be canned unless it's pickled.
DeleteDid you add water? I'm a bit confused where the liquid will come from
ReplyDeleteHave you seen how much liquid is in 18 skinned purée tomato? Water not needed but I suppose you could add some veggie stock when your ready to heat and eat the soup.
DeleteCan you waterbath is vegetable soup
ReplyDeleteI know it isn't approved but I do water bath. Never had a fail yet. It's 3 hours in waterbsth.
Deletecan you do this in a water bath too?
ReplyDeleteeeegad... list of engridents... no water... see above... you can not water bath this
ReplyDeleteHi, this soup looks amazing but I have a concern, has it been tested for safe canning? Are the ph levels safe? Sorry, but I’ve heard too many horror stories about people getting sick from non tested foods being canned then eaten.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I would not add the potatoes. Not all potatoes are the same when it comes to canning. Some will get mushy, others have too much starch. I would omit the cubed potatoes and add them when your ready to eat the soup. Small noodles are great too. But again, add when you’re ready to eat the soup and precook then first. Happy eating
ReplyDeleteHi there! Recipe sounds delish! Only concerned that I have is: I was told, years ago that, Summer squash is not safe to can??
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely the BEST vegetable soup i have ever had! Thank you for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI have an electric pressure cooker that says you can, can pint jars in it. Power pressure cooker XL. Has canning button also. Has anyone used this type of canner?? I have never pressure canned before, would like to make this soup. Thanks
