Add a pinch (whatever can be held between thumb and index finger) of alum to each jar. Pour hot liquid to neck of jar. Wipe mouth rim of jar with lint free wet cloth. Put on sterilized lids and screw rings tight. Place jars in cold pack canner half full of hot water. Add boiling water to cover tops of jars. Boil five minutes.
