Know before you buy
Yes, these jars are specifically designed for home canning and are safe for use in a hot water bath. Always ensure you follow proper sterilization and processing guidelines for your specific recipe.
The SureTight lid is engineered with a specialized sealing compound that creates a vacuum-tight seal. When used correctly, it keeps your canned goods fresh and shelf-stable for up to 18 months.
The wide mouth design is significantly easier to fill and clean, especially when packing larger items like whole fruits, pickles, or thick sauces. It also makes it easier to scoop contents out with a spoon or spatula.
The glass jars are dishwasher safe, but it is recommended to hand wash the metal lids and bands. The high heat and moisture in a dishwasher can cause the metal components to rust or degrade over time.
While these jars are durable, they are primarily designed for canning. If you choose to freeze them, leave at least an inch of 'headspace' at the top to allow for liquid expansion, as glass can crack if filled to the brim.
