I was ready to give home canning a try.
But I gotta admit, botulism scared the pants off of me!!
My wife has been doing it for over 30 years, She is meticulous. Take it slow and you will be fine.
Walmart had a “Learn to Can” kit this season - you use your own large stockpot, but there’s a canning basket and three jars and I think a funnel too. It was $10 so I got one for each of my sisters and my best friend. I wanted them to have the knowledge of how to do it.
