    Cook’s tip
    To sterilise the jars, wash in warm soapy water and rinse well. Place the jars and lids in a preheated 150ºC, gas mark 2 oven for 10 minutes until completely dry. If using kilner jars with rubber seals, boil them in a large pan of water instead as the dry heat of the oven will damage them.
