Once removed from the water bath, the jars need to be placed on a folded tea towel or newspaper and left to sit undisturbed until completely cool. In order to check that the jars are fully airtight, you need to test the seals. If using swing-top jars like Le Parfait, undo the clip and lift the jar by the glass lid – if it stays closed on lifting, it is airtight. Re-fasten the clip and store. If using jars with two-piece vacuum lids such as Ball jars, unscrew the outer cap and remove, then lift the jar, holding on to the inner lid – if the lid stays on when lifted, the jar is airtight. Replace the screw-top lid, tighten fully and store the jar.
