Hello ... I'm new. I've done jams and jellies but not actually canned for real yet. I've got some tomatos that are almost ready!
So, my Mother In Law got me a 8-Quart Aluminum Pressure COOKER for my birthday so I could can my veggies. I am thinking this is not the right thing. I want a pressure CANNER right? I have heard that you can can in a Cooker but those are larger capacity and higher quality maybe?
Just want to know so I can return it and try not to hurt my MIL's feelings. She has done lots of canning before and has let us borrow her large pressure canner so I don't understand why she got a pressure cooker for me. Please explain.
