I'm not doing this. If it can't be canned in a water bath canner, it isn't happening. I have certain items I bought already in oxygen free Mylar bags and one is sprouting seeds. Also have garden seeds in oxygen free Mylar bag in the freezer, bought them that way, too.

Many of the modern jars are the equivalent of vacuum seal canning jars.

Stuff like Salsa, Olives, etc, are made and cooked at the factory, and vacuum sealed.

A good washing and they are easily re-usable.

I have bunches of them filled with peppers and mushrooms I ran through my food dehydrator.

Started doing this this past summer with my new foodsaver.
The half gallon wide mouths work best. I have sealed oats, rice, baking mix, nuts, quinoa.It was one of the reasons I got the foodsaver.
