Canning Beans

One of the things that makes it harder for me to use beans more often is the time and planning it takes to prepare them. I now use a pressure cooker most of the time to speed up this process, but another way that can help is to have some beans already cooked and readily available by canning them. HERE is a handout from the University of Georgia, The National Center for Home Food Preservation that gives a few basic recipes for canning beans and the correct procedure for doing so.
