Default Re: Canning with Vita-Mix

How hot do you need to cook food in order to blanch it? From what I have seen on YouTube and in the recipe book you can heat such things as soup up to boiling in this blender because of the horsepower and friction I guess. Haven't tried it yet. So I am thinking if one made applesauce to can or marinara sauce or something, you must be able to heat it up while blending and them pour it into jars or something.

But bak to what you were saying: so if I have something I want to can like say green beans, I blanch them (If I recall that is a very short time in boiling water - pardon my ignorance), then pour them into a Ball jar or something similar and place the jar in water, heat it to boiling and doesn't it like vacuum suck the lid on as it gets hotter and hotter? And also do I out filtered water in with the beans or do I use the water they were blanched in or no water? Thank you so much for your help!
