What is pressure canning?

A safe method for preserving food! Pressurized steam is created to reach an optimal temperature to destroy bacteria present in foods. Once the cans are removed from the pressure canner, the jars cool and a vacuum seal is formed to prevent any bacteria from forming or entering the food.
