Anyone do it? Anyone have a cookbook recommendation or a website with a good recipe?

I have the Ball and America's Test Kitchen cookbook.

Thanks

I’m pretty sure meridiandog does it and has posted about it at least once. If you don’t follow everything he posts on this board to begin with I strongly suggest it. My grandparents use to do it when I was a good bit younger.

I can and preserve a lot of things. You can't go wrong with the Ball Canning book as it takes things step by step.

A lot of folks believe just a hot or boiling water bath is all that's needed to preserve food, and that is OK for things with a high acid base or put in a pickling brine with salt.

However, if just wanting to save something like green beans, corn, already prepared foods, etc. in canning jars, it takes a pressure canner to do so safely.
