@tmflower Absolutely not!! Only fruits and tomatoes can be done in a boiling water bath. All other vegetables MUST be done in a pressure cooker for food safety. Temperatures must reach 240 degs. for the required minutes for vegetables to be properly preserved. Read up on : "Botulism" in a google search and this should clear up any questions you may have about safe canning methods. People still die from botulism from improperly prepared foods, especially in canning.

@Alleydc You are correct in this. You also lose fluid due to the violent boiling that takes place when this is done. The great possibility of the jars exploding is always there when they are de-pressurized too quickly.. Just too risky. Follow the experts and let the canner de-pressurize naturally. This is actually part of the processing time and is needed to preserve the food safely.

I already canned my beets. I wanted to know if I can open them, pickle my juice and reseal them without hurting the beets?

Canned my first batch. Put in 1/2 tap salt though I wished I had not. Did your beets stay sweet? Mine were kinda bland but when I cooked some on the stove, they stayed sweet.

You are one fortunate man in that you have not been injured or lost the entire set of jars in that canner!! To remove the weight before the pressure goes down of it's own accord is to cut short the processing time, for one thing, and also causes the pressure to increase tremendously inside the boiling jars. This can cause the jars to explode violently inside the canner. I know, it has happened before. There is not one expert that will advise you to do this. Be safe, and show others how to.

What I need to know is if I can reheat the juice put in pickling and reseal the jars without ruining my beets.
