Turn on heat, bring mixture to simmer. Allow mixture to simmer until the consistency is thick but still can run off a spoon, stir frequently. Boil down process generally takes around 1 1/2 hours

While Mixture is simmering, add your clean jars to the pressure canner. Put Canner over heat to warm up the mason jars

Once you have the correct consistency, turn off heat from pot, remove jars from Canner leaving 2 inches of water in the pressure canner.

Begin filling the mason jars while they are hot leaving 1/2 inch of head space. Any jars not completely filled can be placed in the refrigerator for immediate use.

Install Lid and Rings onto jars finger tight

Once time is up, shut off heat source. Allow the Pressure cooker to vent off steam and cool completely before removing the lid

Remove any trapped air bubbles from the jars

Carefully put all jars into the pressure cooker and install pressure cooker lid

Using a towel dipped in white vinegar, wipe all of the mason jar rims clean

Pressure can jars for 25 min. @ 10 psi

(Adjust Pressure according to your Altitude)

Allow the jars to “snap”, wait 8-12 hours before handling for the jars to cool
