     Title: Reprocessing Unsealed Jars
Categories: Canning, Information
     Yield: 1 guide


 If a lid fails to seal on a jar, remove the lid and check the
 jar-sealing surface for tiny nicks. If necessary, change the jar, add a
 new, properly prepared lid, and reprocess within 24 hours using the same
 processing time. Headspace in unsealed jars may be adjusted to 1-1/2
 inches and jars could be frozen instead of reprocessed. Foods in single
 unsealed jars could be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within
 several days.
