Notes: When I canned my first beans in the 1970's, Pa was my teacher. Oh, how I remember those nights of getting Tom and Andrew to bed and then Pa and I would can beans to after 10 o'clock at night. She didn't need a recipe. It was in her head. I usually put up about 40+ jars of beans at that stage of my life.
I used her pressure canner which I outfitted with a new gasket and had it checked at the Extension Office for safety, it cleared. This was definitely a pre 1970's canner, but according to the Extension Service as of 1999 was save to use. I went several years without canning and in about 2005 bought a new canner. When buying that new canner which cost $50+, I thought I will never use this enough to pay for it, but I think I have. I recommend purchasing from your Extension Service a guide to Food Preservation. It is a source of guidance in canning properly and safely. Also, it has many recipes for canning and preserving. I do jellies, preserves and other food preservation using a water bath. This book gives you directions on using a water bath. Also, SURE-JELLİ is a wonderful product to use when making jellies and preserves. All directions are in the box. Easy jelly and preserves.
