Hey Friend!👋
If you’re new here or finding your way back, welcome to O.N.U.H by reallyonuh.
This series is all about learning safe, confident home canning together: breaking things down step-by-step so beginners don’t feel overwhelmed and returning canners can rebuild solid habits.
Today is Canning 101 - Part 3: Getting Comfortable With Equipment.
Before we ever preserve real food, we need to understand the tools, what actually matters, and what you don’t need to spend money on yet.
🫙 In this stream we’ll cover:
• Water bath vs pressure canning - what’s the real difference?
• Which equipment is required vs optional
• Jar types, lids, and bands explained
• Essential canning tools (jar lifters, funnels, bubble removers, etc.)
• Proper jar washing & preparation
• Why some canners add vinegar to their water
• Building confidence before your first batch
This is a foundations stream designed to remove fear and confusion so future sessions feel easy and repeatable.
