First, we put a new kitchen towel. We arrange the jars. Then we pour in water. There should be a lot of liquid. You can also send the lids right away.

We wait for it to boil.

After this, the exact sterilization time will depend on the volume of the jars. Ten minutes of sterilization is enough for small containers.

If you are working with two-liter jars, wait twenty minutes. But large three-liter jars are sterilized for half an hour.
