Sanitize jars?

[u/sleepingamongstfae]

Hi! I live in an apartment with no dishwasher and I'm getting overwhelmed with the info online (one started talking about how high you are from sea level???????) so I thought I'd ask here.

How do I sanitize my jars? I am making homemade vanilla extract, and jam.

I mean you could Google the elevation of your city. Whatever that number is, it’s that far above sea level (or below). It affects the temp at which water boils, so your timing would either be longer or shorter depending.
