Beginner's canning set from Ball for $17.98 shipped


Have you got canner's envy?  I do.  All month long I've been watching my friends on Facebook posting pictures of their expertly canned bounty from their summer gardens.  I'd love to can some summer produce, but alas, I have no clue where to even begin, and I'm a little hesitant to invest in all that canning gear and special pots and jars, etc.

Ball has come out with a beginner's canning set that allows you to make use of stock pots that you already own, and the whole set is only $17.88 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.  It includes instructions, 3 pint jars and a rack to use for lowering the jars into your boiling  pots of water.  It allows you to try canning without a huge investment in supplies and equipment.  I'm going to try this, and if I find it easy and like doing it, then I'll start supplementing it with additional canning gear.
  • Introductory home canning kit eases a novice canner into it with a trail set that makes use of existing kitchenware.
  • Includes an illustrated, simplified instruction book with recipes.
  • Also includes polypropylene rack with separate, fitted lifter that works in standard stockpots and 3 pint jars.
  • Efficient, low-cost way to learn canning, which could save money and broaden supplies in the long run.
