Canning Rack
2 - stainless steel; great for small and odd-sized jars
Features:
Stainless steel, this rack won't rust
Accommodates non-standard jar sizes
Holds 14 jelly jars, 14 half-pint, 9 pint or 7 quart
jars at one time
Small jelly jars won't fall through
12-1/4 in diameter and 3-3/4 deep (not including
handles). Made in USA.
Blake's rating: Excellent replacement rack (sooner or later your
rack will fall apart from the boiling water (and no, this one is not made of
silicone...) Note: for very small jars, I put empty jars in around the full
jars to keep them from tipping over. Tipping over is very common with
all racks.
Canning Rack System
This multi-use canning rack system turns any pot into a canning pot and
facilitates many culinary tasks like blanching and sterilizing. Used with a
large saucepan or stock pot, the racks lift and hold mason jars for easy
insertion and removal of jars. The racks elevate the jars off the bottom of
pot to prevent glass breakage. These racks have multiple wires to hold all
jar sizes, including small jars which won't tip and fall through the rack
when lifted. Also great for blanching, steaming, or boiling corn or lobster.
Includes two stainless steel racks (a small one for 9½ - 10½" diameter pots
and a large one for 11 - 12" diameter pots), a set of adjustable stainless
steel lifters, instructions and tips.

Corn Cutters / Corn Strippers
Corn cutters - Simple and inexpensive devices to help you remove corn
kernels from the cob. Much faster and safer than using a knife, you
can make niblets or creamed corn with these. I'd never be able to
freeze 500 ears worth of corn per year without these - Blake

Food Preparation Equipment
Make the job faster and easier with these great tools!
It is tiring and laborious to prepare green beans for canning; there are
so many of them and you do them all by hand. But wait there's a new
device that makes it easy. Hmmm, actually, these devices have been around
since our great-grandfather's day! Here are several different types
and makes, some hand fed, some cranked: choose the one that meets your need
and budget!
Making Jam? Need Pectin, but the local store is
out?
Is your jam too runny? Pectin enables you to turn out
perfectly set jam every time. Made from natural apples, there are also
low-sugar pectins that allow you to reduce the sugar you add by almost
half!
