Whether you make your own preserves, jams, jellies or salsa to use at home, to give away to friends and family as gifts or as a small business venture, using ball glass jars is one of the most common ways to keep your products fresh for later consumption. As a precaution, you should always run the newly bought ball glass jars through the dishwasher first as a way to sterilize them before use. Chances are they are fine right out of the packaging, but better to be safe than sorry.
