The big gift this year! Exciting! I've never pressure canned, and this thing is so fancy! It had a jar warming part of the cycle, it has cycles, and it can do water bath canning as well!! I'm excited to try using it after the holidays!

What’s the green thingy on the side?

What are you planning to can first?

Great gift!

That's part of the locking mechanism uhh sealing bits!

I'm unsure what I'm canning first! While I do want to pressure can, I don't know any recipes. It came with recipes though so maybe just the chicken soup in the booklet lol. I also need to make more candied jalapeños, they're popular!
