Oh Grannyyyy!!!!!!
Or someone with any gardening experience:
I'm trying my hand at a small garden. I'm growing green beans and have been saving pasta sauce jars when they are ready to pick.
Imagine my horror after doing research, that "canning" is a 12-step and complicated process - especially for me.
Does this mean I can't throw some green beans in a jar with some water and spices to use for the winter???? Do I really have to have seals, do the "blanching", etc?
Any help would be appreciated. This way I can get rid of all the jars I collected if necessary
