Note: Influenza A virus subtype A smashing rootage for canning information is the Blue Book Pb to preserving. I highly recommend it for learning how to can. Here is a bunch of other canning books every bit good every bit equipment I disclose useful.

My thoughts:

I convey been seeing more than every bit good every bit more than pickled fruits at the local fancy markets every bit good every bit see I'd stimulate my paw at making them myself. I had a pound of ripe, black cherry cherries that I didn't intend I'd alive on able to piece of work to (the work alongside cherry season is that I e'er overestimate how many cherries I tin swallow every bit good every bit buy withal precisely about other cheap handbag every 4th dimension I come upwards across them) every bit good every bit hence I see they'd alive on perfect to can. It was a super small-scale batch (I used my Ball Home Canning Discovery Kit every bit good every bit a regular stockpot instead of my big canner) only I intend it could alive on doubled alongside success. I'm not too deplorable that I made only ii jars though. While they are delicious every bit good every bit I concur off frontwards to experimenting alongside them, I convey every bit good every bit hence many (filled) jars inwards my canning cabinet it is a piffling scary. This means I sense no guilt trying to pickle precisely about other fruit. Plus it was a super quick canning project, from starting 4th dimension to finish, it only took virtually xx minutes. Not bad for a weeknight!
