Canning Green Beans

I am canning green beans, if my beans are hot when I put them in the jars and they seal before I put them in the pressure canner; do I have to pressure cook them?

Yes, you still do. The beans don't really 'seal' when you put them in the jars and apply the rings, it is just the heat causing a small vacuum, enough to seem like they seal.

They still need to be further processed. Jams and jellies do the same thing when put into jars.

Yes! Contact your local extension office website for the proper method!
