To ensure your homemade flavored butters stay fresh and safe to eat, it’s essential to properly clean and sanitize your mason jars before filling them. This step helps prevent any potential contamination, keeping your gourmet butters at their best. Here’s how to clean and sanitize your mason jars:

How to Clean and Sanitize Mason Jars 

  1. Wash the Jars and Lids:

    • Start by washing your mason jars, lids, and rings thoroughly with hot, soapy water. Use a bottle brush to get into the edges and threads of the jars.
    • Rinse well under hot water to remove any soap residue.

  2. Sanitize by Boiling (Preferred Method):

    • Fill a large pot with enough water to submerge the jars completely.
    • Place the jars and lids (but not the rubber or metal sealing rings) in the pot, making sure they are completely covered by water.
    • Bring the water to a rolling boil and let the jars boil for 10 minutes. This will kill any bacteria and ensure the jars are sterilized.
    • Carefully remove the jars and lids with clean tongs, placing them on a clean towel to air-dry completely.

  3. Alternatively, Use the Oven (For Jars Only):

    • Preheat your oven to 225°F (110°C).
    • Place washed, dry jars (without lids) on a baking sheet and heat in the oven for 20 minutes.
    • Let the jars cool slightly before filling. Ensure lids are sanitized separately, as high oven temperatures can damage their rubber seals.

  4. Sanitize the Lids:

    • Boil the lids in a small pot of water for 5 minutes, especially if they have rubber seals, to avoid damage.
    • Remove with clean tongs and let them dry completely on a clean towel.

  5. Filling and Sealing the Jars:

    • Once jars and lids are fully dry and cool, fill them with your flavored butter.
    • Secure the lids tightly, and store in the fridge immediately to keep the butter fresh.

By following these steps, you’ll have sanitized jars that are ready to keep your gourmet butters fresh, safe, and delicious for up to two weeks in the refrigerator. Enjoy gifting these beautiful jars with confidence!
