Canning is an Economical Way to Preserve Fresh Quality FoodWhy Granite Ware Canning?
Our water-bath canner has been the standard for canning for 100+ yearsMost canned foods are acidic fruits and vegetables.
The stepped design of our canners produces more even heat by allowing more boiling water contact with the top half of the jars.
It�s relatively inexpensive.
What additional equipment do home-canners use and why:
1. BlancherEssential for canning fruits and vegetables that require removing the skins � such as peaches and tomatoes
Also necessary for preparing fresh fruits and vegetables for freezing
2. Preserving KettleUsed to reduce fresh berries to make jelly or boil down apples for apple saucevegetables for freezing
3. ColanderUsed for the first step in the process � cleaning the food products thoroughly
Nests neatly inside the blancher for convenient space saving storage
4. Jar LifterA vital tool for safely handling sterilized jars before canning begins, and for removing hot jars from canning racks when canning process concludes
5. Lid LifterMagnetic tool that transports sterilized lids from canner to jar as needed � lids should never be touched by hand once sterilized and ready to use
6. FunnelSpecifically designed funnel fits standard and wide-mouth canning jars for easy, no-mess filling
7. Bubble RemoverFlexible, tapered silicone scraper releases trapped air along the sides and deep down in the corner of the jars that can cause foods to spoil

Colander for Washing and Draining FoodsGranite Ware by Columbian Home Products
Originally founded in 1871, Columbian Home Products is the oldest cookware manufacturer in the U.S., famous for producing Porcelain on Steel cookware. The Columbian Home Products name was taken from the Columbian Exposition World Fair in Chicago in 1893 where we won the cookware innovation award for our naturally non-stick enameling process. We have been producing Granite Ware cookware in our Terre Haute, IN facility since 1901.
Granite Ware has a carbon steel core for strength, conductivity and superior heat distribution. Porcelain is fused to the steel at 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit producing a non-porous, inert glass surface that is naturally non-stick.
Granite Ware is as GREEN as you can get! There are no PTFE's, PFOA's or any other chemicals to change the taste, color or nutritional value of the food.
