Jars are filled with food, sealed loosely with a lid, then boiled completely covered in vigorously boiling water for a prescribed amount of time indicated by the tested recipe you are using.</p> <p>High-acid foods are items such as jams, jellies, most fruits, pickles, relishes, chutneys, salsas, and tomato products with added acid.</p> <p>If you want to understand the reasons behind all the steps, please see  <a href="https://www.healthycanning.com/water-bath-canning-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Water Bath Canning Theory.</a></p> <p>If you are new to home canning and have not purchased a water bath canner yet, Health Canning recommends that you consider <a href="https://www.healthycanning.com/steam-canning">steam canning</a> instead for your high-acid foods.

If the processing time is 10 minutes or longer, research has now shown that sterilizing them is a waste of time and energy — just wash the jars. Even if the jars are brand new, you’ll want to get broken glass dust, mouse turds (sic), etc., from the factory and warehouses off them.</p> <p>Whatever you do, do not boil the lids.</p> <p>(This is a lot less prep work than was called for in the old days, thanks to new research.)</p> <p>FYI, the screw band canning rings do not need and never needed sterilization as they never touch the food.</p> <p>In terms of your own personal work time, don’t forget to schedule in these times which are additional to the processing time adjusted for your altitude:</p> <ul> <li>the coming up to boil time (approx. 25 minutes depending on size of pot and heat of burner);</li> <li>10 to 15 minutes for the water to return to a vigorous boil after you put the jars in;</li> <li>5 minutes at the end for the jars to rest in the pot with the heat and cover off.</li> </ul> <p>Have enough water in the pot that you will use for canning to be able to cover the jars by 3 cm / 1 inch.  (Allow 5 cm / 2 inches of water if the processing time will be longer than 20 minutes.)</p> <p>For your first few times using your water bath canner, it’s best to have a kettle of boiling water standing by for quick top-ups as you learn over time how to judge the water it wants. In fact, even old hands find that when water bathing, you never regret having a spare kettle of boiled water handy: there will be times you need it in a hurry.</p> <p>Add a few tablespoons of white vinegar to the water bath to prevent the outside of your jars going cloudy. (Some people say instead to add cream of tartar to the water, but other people report that that left the outside of their jars a cloudy mess that was harder to clean than the jars would have been with nothing in the water.)</p> <p>You can use smaller size jars than indicated, but never larger size jars than indicated. Process smaller jars for the same time as indicated for the larger jars called for, unless separate times for the smaller sizes are given.</p> <p>Reminder: only high-acid (aka low pH) food products can be water bathed.</p> <p>[Note: if you want to understand the rationale for all this, see our <a href="https://www.healthycanning.com/water-bath-canning-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">summary of the reasons behind water bath canning procedures</a>.]</p> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1703" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20680%20450'%3E%3C/svg%3E" alt="Green Tomato Salsa 017" width="680" height="450" data-lazy-src="https://www.healthycanning.com/wp-content/uploads/Green-Tomato-Salsa-017.jpg"><noscript><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1703" src="https://www.healthycanning.com/wp-content/uploads/Green-Tomato-Salsa-017.jpg" alt="Green Tomato Salsa 017" width="680" height="450"></noscript></p> <h2><span id="Water_bath_processing_steps">Water bath processing steps</span></h2> <ol> <li>Put the food in the jars;</li> <li>Put the lids on;</li> <li>Have something on the bottom of the pot to be between the jars and the bottom of the pot;</li> <li>Put the jars upright in the water.

It does NOT apply to jars which should have been pressure-canned but were mistakenly water-bathed.</p> <p>In 2018, 3 people in New York City got botulism from plain peas that should have been pressure-canned but were water-bathed instead. A jar didn’t seal; it was put in the fridge, and it was that jar that they consumed and contracted botulism from (they likely would have from the other sealed jars as well):</p> <blockquote><p>“The U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines state that “foods in single unsealed jars could be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within several days” . However, this recommendation applies only to cans that have been correctly processed. In the absence of a pressure-canning step, C. botulinum spores were not eliminated, and the closed jar created an anaerobic environment allowing spore germination and BoNT production.” <span class="footnote_referrer"><a role="button" tabindex="0" onclick="footnote_moveToReference_1285_1('footnote_plugin_reference_1285_1_1');" onkeypress="footnote_moveToReference_1285_1('footnote_plugin_reference_1285_1_1');"><sup id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_1285_1_1" class="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text">[1]</sup></a><span id="footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_1285_1_1" class="footnote_tooltip">Bergeron G, Latash J, Da Costa-Carter C, et al.

Thank you for this website. I&#8217;ve learned a lot about pickling this year after I kept a very successful garden. The first method I learned about was open kettle canning, though after reading this website and a website provided by the USDA to encourage safe canning, I threw out my first batch of pickles and hot water bathed everything in straight vinegar from then on. This method makes decent pickled hot peppers to add to soups and stews, and I&#8217;ve got a lot of them to last through the winter, even though I wasn&#8217;t counting.</p> </div> <div class="comment-reply"><a rel='nofollow' class='comment-reply-link' href='#comment-93531' data-commentid="93531" data-postid="1285" data-belowelement="article-comment-93531" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to RP" aria-label='Reply to RP'>Reply</a></div> </article> </li><!-- #comment-## --> <li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="comment-81944"> <article id="article-comment-81944"> <header class="comment-header"> <p class="comment-author"> <span class="comment-author-name">Chris</span> </p> <p class="comment-meta"><time class="comment-time">July 11, 2021 at 10:27 pm</time></p> </header> <div class="comment-content"> <p>If I made stew for dinner, can I water can the left overs?</p> </div> <div class="comment-reply"><a rel='nofollow' class='comment-reply-link' href='#comment-81944' data-commentid="81944" data-postid="1285" data-belowelement="article-comment-81944" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Chris" aria-label='Reply to Chris'>Reply</a></div> </article> <ul class="children"> <li class="comment byuser comment-author-healthy-canning odd alt depth-2" id="comment-81967"> <article id="article-comment-81967"> <header class="comment-header"> <p class="comment-author"> <span class="comment-author-name">Healthy Canning</span> </p> <p class="comment-meta"><time class="comment-time">July 12, 2021 at 5:26 pm</time></p> </header> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Do not can leftovers period.
