  • Preparation: Inspect the jars, lids and metal bands- do not use if cracked, chipped, scratched, dented or rusted. Wash jar, lids and metal bands in hot, soapy water- rinse well. Jars must be kept warm until ready to use, minimizing the risk of breakage when filling jar with hot food. Never heat jars in the oven. Prepare food using fresh ingredients and a tested recipe for home canning. Processing jars: Fill each warm jar with prepared food. Follow the canning recipe for correct fill-level. Each jar needs headspace between food and the rim to allow for expansion. Wipe any food from the rim of the jar. Finger tighten band an lid and jar. Over tightening can result in seal failure during heating process. This allows far air to be able to escape during canning. After filling Jars with food cover with liquid, release air bubbles by inserting a flat plastic (not metal] utensil between food and the jar. Slowly turn the jar and move the utensil up and down to allow air bubbles to escape. It is not necessary to release air bubbles when filling jams, jellies or all liquid food such as juices.
