It isn't as scary as it sounds. Just read up, and follow the instruction manual to the letter.Amy Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09734334700311722750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25502633.post-49863612047414750462015-05-14T13:35:12.696-05:002015-05-14T13:35:12.696-05:00Pressure canning is rather easy.

I had been hot water bath canning for years and then when I got married, I put a pressure canner on my registry (I needed to put SOMETHING on the registry. People did not approve of the "no gifts" stance I tried to take.) My new one came with detailed instructions and after doing it once, I found out just how easy it was. Not scary at all when you follow the directions. I might hesitate if I found a really old one at a garage sale or something, but the new one is in great shape and the instructions were clear. No fear!Carlanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25502633.post-85233093095291493142015-05-14T12:36:44.237-05:002015-05-14T12:36:44.237-05:00Re: Pressure Canning

It's a little nerve-wracking the first time, when you have this 22 qt pot on your stove that sounds like it's trying to explode. Too much pressure? Not enough pressure? How much noise is the right noise? How much of a jiggle under the weight is right? If I do this wrong, what will happen to my future dinner guests?<br />But my chicken stock and vegetable broth both seemed to come out just fine. And as a bonus, my previously future guests all seem to be okay.<br />Maybe I need to pull that out again; thank you for the reminder.Andrewnoreply@blogger.com
