Cheesekraft Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 never canned before, but I would like to start and think its a good idea! Where can you get quality canning jars and lids here? I see a lot of plastic stuff from China on lazada but I would rather find something higher quality/longer lasting. If anyone has a source I would pappreciate it! ????

Bruce Aussie Chiang Mai Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Start off with basic jars available at yok. 2 piece old jars are best but 2 expensive. Lazada have glass jars with 2 piece lids at good price for lots of 6 but only 500ml size. I used cheaper 1 piece lid jars and they ok if lids on tight and depress after boiling. I just done heaps pasta sauce, chutney and soup with my tomatoes. Don't need keep beyond 6 months. I brought a few bigger jars 2 piece lids 220bht each great days but too expensive. Those will be the last ones we open, expect be ok for a year. It a hobby while home so much. Making bread and beer also kills time. Beer bread, sun dried tomatoes and beers also passes time nicely. I mean the relaxing and consuming the tools of you work. ????❤???????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieH Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 You dont say where you are ? So you can get local info. In our town the local bakery supply shop has all manner of glass jars, as do the typical cheap plastic 20 baht stores mentioned earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
