Steam canning - Food.sand.steamcan PEP BB

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Food Prep and Preservation

For this badge bit, you will be preserving food by canning it using a steam canning method.  Remember, steam is hot and use a recipe from a trusted source.

Learn how simple and effective canning can be! A great BB for those who have never tried canning before or an easy BB for the established homesteader to knock out! You get to pick your own canning recipe and preserve at least 1 quart/32 oz/950ml of food.

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
 - You must use an atmospheric steam canning system to seal the jars (not an instapot since that applies extra pressure)
 - You must preserve the amount of food equivalent to 1 quart (ie: 1 quart jar or 4 half pint jars)

hint: Could you work this BB into another BB? Hmmmm
