Always cool, your liquids first. After cooling, process anyway you want.I have never, used hot liquids over anything. You would be cooking it, before processing it. Canning or frig.type recipes.
My Mom and Gramma always put a fresh grape leaf (pint jars, 2 or 3 in a quart) in the middle of the jar of ANY kind of pickle. They never had a soft pickle as long as I can remember!
