This recipe is time consuming and requires some attention. It is worth all the time and effort. Plan on tying up at least a weekend for this. I am sending this step by step to help simplify the recipe. A large Ceramic, Glass, Enamel or Plastic pot or bowl must be used for soaking. DO NOT USE ALUMINUM

This should make 12 – 14 midsized jars
