Tips
Prep everything in advance to easily fill jars.
Ensure beans are fully covered by liquid in the jars during canning for proper cooking.
When using lug lid jars, tighten them as tight as you can, not just fingertip tight.
When using regular Mason jars, practice fingertip tight sealing.
Pressure canning significantly reduces processing time compared to a water bath.
