- Wipe jar rims and threads and cover with two piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jar in rack and lower into canner. Cover and bring water to a gentle boil. Process jars for 5 minutes. Remove jars and place on a towel to cool completely. Check jars for proper seal.
- Processing: As published by Mrs. Wages: "Process jars for 5 minutes" (boiling water bath canner) - 5 minutes.
