I asked Sean, otherwise known as S. Pajot, the cook and writer behind outdoors, food, and lifestyle blog Blackbloods, to help me stock my pantry for the cold months by preserving, sealing, and shelving my favorite fall and winter vegetables. Here are the results: • Find the best produce. • Prep, ASAP. • Gather Your Tools: • 8-quart stainless steel preserving pan • 21 1/2-quart Granite·Ware Canning Pot With Wire Rack • Prep towels • Medium mixing bowl (for sterilizing lids) • Wide-Mouth Steel Funnel With Handle • Measuring cup (for ladling) • Large tongs • Slotted spoon • Chopsticks (for popping pesky air bubbles) • Jar Lifter Get Canning!
