first time jam-maker
I am preparing to make and can jam for the first time and am wondering if I may safely use my pasta pot as a boiling canner. It has a colander insert that the jars could rest on during processing (in the simmering water, above the bottom of the pot), but they might rub shoulders--is that ok?
Sorry to seem like a slacker--I have been researching this online but thought I would throw the question out to an experienced crowd, too!
