Canning Peach Nectar
22 Steps -- Step 14

While Bernice works on the peaches Paul puts the jars we will use inverted in a shallow pan with an inch of water. He will turn on the heat in a moderate temperature so the water will gently boil. This sterilizes and heats the jar. You should not put hot jam in a cold jar. We put out more jars than we expect. We will put our jam in pints and we add one half pint in case we have some at the end but not enough for a full pint. You may have to tip the jars from time to time is case the water in all drawn up into the jars.
