Tip
To sterilise glass jars, wash in hot, soapy water and rinse well. Dry in the oven for 15-20 mins at gas 1, 140°C, fan 120°C until hot and completely dry. Boil metal lids and rubber seals for 10 mins, then leave to dry. You can store the jar in a cool, dark place for up to 3 months. Once opened, keep in the fridge for up to a week.
