Canning crappie?

9 years ago

last modified: 9 years ago

Has anyone canned crappie successfully? I was planning on a salt and sugar brine since that is what I do for salmon (photo attached) but not sure if I would have to add oil to the crappie since it's a lean fish or maybe I can just add the brine to the jar?

Also I read that you would need to freeze the fish first to kill any parasites but wouldn't the pressure canning process kill any parasites or bacteria in the fresh water fish and anyway I read that you have to freeze fish to -4 for 7 day which I don't think my freezer will go that low?

I hope you are using an approved and tested recipe. You cannot safely invent your own. And as for oil, there are very, very few recipes that permit oil. Please post your question on the Harvest Forum of the GardenWeb section. You appear to be flirting with botulism.

I am looking for an approved and tested recipe? I buy canned smoked trout in canola oil which is great. I will post in the Harvest Forum as well and if anyone know of any recipes please let me know it's hard to find recipes since most commercial companies obviously keep their recipes secret.
