I would not use a water bath for those vegetables. Anything that is low acid, which all of these are, should not be done in a water bath-they should be done in a pressure cooker, else there is a chance of botulism. Since I am afraid of pressure cookers, I solved the problem by freezing low acid veggies. But, for things that can be done in a water bath, I wouldn't see any reason not to reuse the water. As far as time-it's best to check either with a canning book or in the documents that come with the jars or lids to find out the recommended times for each type of vegetable or jam.

You are right Annie, unless you pickle the corn (add vinegar and raise the acidity level) canners should always pressure cook low acid vegetables. http://www.pickyourown.org/pickledcornrelish.htmhas an explanation of why and Ohio State University produces a canning fact sheet that can <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> be found here http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/5000/pdf/5344.pdfAnnie knows how to cook! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> How about sharing another award winning recipe with us? Please with a cherry on top... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
