For more years that I likely care to count, I've been using traditional canning methods to preserve our garden goodies. Traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation, tried-and-true methods captured by some of the best canning product manufacturers and tweaks that suit my own preferences. There's been very little change in my routine.
After all, a proven recipe is one you'll use over and over again. A quality glass canning jar is a quality glass canning jar you'll turn to time and time again. And a canning lid that produces a tight seal is one you'll willingly use, then find a way to recycle if possible, after opening and enjoying your canned goods.
Then something amazing and highly unexpected crosses your path and suddenly turns your canning world topsy-turvy in a truly wonderful way...
