How to Make Bruschetta In A Jar

  1. Mince 4 cloves of garlic.
  2. In a large, deep stainless steel saucepan, combine the minced garlic, 1/2 cup dry white wine, 1/4 cup white wine vinegar, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, and 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar.
  3. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring occasionally.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant and heated through.
  5. While the vinegar mixture simmers, prepare your jars: Wash jars and lids in hot, soapy water; rinse thoroughly. Keep jars hot until ready to use.
  6. Pack the chopped tomatoes into the hot, sterilized jars, leaving a generous 1/2-inch headspace at the top of each jar.
  7. Ladle the hot vinegar mixture over the tomatoes, ensuring the tomatoes are fully submerged and leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  8. Remove air bubbles by gently running a non-metallic utensil around the inside of the jar.
  9. If necessary, add more hot liquid to adjust the headspace to 1/2 inch.
  10. Wipe the jar rims clean with a damp cloth.
  11. Center the lids on the jars.
  12. Screw the bands onto the jars until resistance is met, then tighten another 1/4 turn.
  13. Place the jars in a boiling water canner, ensuring they are completely covered with water by at least 1 inch. Add more water as needed.
  14. Bring the water to a rolling boil, and process for 20 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for specifics).
  15. Turn off the heat and let the jars sit in the canner for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
  16. Let the jars cool completely on a towel-lined surface. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal. Check that the lids are sealed; they should not flex when pressed.
  17. Once completely cool, label and store your Bruschetta in a Jar in a cool, dark, and dry place. Enjoy!
