Dry Canning Potatoes, Part 2: Canning Fries, Hashbrowns, a Better Mash & Other FAQs

Can you dry can French fries? Can you dry can hashbrowns? Will dry canning make for better mashed potatoes? Can you dry can russet potatoes? Can you dry can peeled potatoes? How long do dry canned potatoes last? How else can you prepare dry canned potatoes for serving? These are the questions you asked on my first video about dry canning potatoes.

I'm going to try to answer all of these questions here! I have eaten A LOT of potatoes the past couple days. Hope you enjoy the results! I'll be dieting next week! ;-)

***Please note that this method of canning is not the "approved" method. Please do your own research to determine if this is the right method for you.

As always, I am so grateful for each and every one of you. Thank you for being here!

General directions:

Dry Canned Potatoes: Grow and Preserve

Thoroughly wash and scrub potatoes. Cut to 1-1.5” size for crispy smashed potatoes, ½” dices for hash browns, 8 wedges for fries, or peel and cut into 1-1.5” pieces for mash.
Drop potatoes in large bowl with citric acid and warm water. I use 1-1.5T of citric acid for a gallon size bowl. Let soak for an hour.

Drain potatoes in colander. Liberally salt and toss to coat. Let salted potatoes drain for at least 45 minutes, shaking them every 10-15 minutes.

If you do not want your potatoes salted, rinse and dry the potatoes before adding oil. (I skip this step)

Put the potatoes back in the bowl and lightly coat with oil or ghee.

Jar up the potatoes. Headspace is not an issue because there is no liquid, so really pack them in. Do keep them from touching the lid (which might cause issues), but just below that is fine. The potatoes will shrink during the canning process.

Add lids and rings to “finger tight”. Put jars in pressure canner with the appropriate amount of room-temperature water. Close canner, bring up to temperature. Let vent for 10 minutes. Apply pressure gauge or toggle and process 25 minutes for pints and 35 minutes for quarts at the appropriate pressure for your altitude.
