Waterbath canning made easy video

A while back I did an educational video for the Valley Dish TV program in Phoenix.  This video dealt with waterbath canning.  In the video, I gave you step by step methods for waterbath canning.  While there are many safety rules you must follow, this will give you an idea of how waterbath canning is done.  See Waterbath Canning by Judy Toth

For those of you who are new to canning, there are a few canning methods you can use.  Waterbath canning is done for high acid foods like pickles, tomatoes, jams, etc.  There is another method that is used for low acid foods like green beans, meat, etc.  That is called pressure canning.  This video DOES NOT deal with pressure canning and canning low acid foods using the waterbath method can make you sick or even kill you.
