Hot bath canning is when jars are heated, filled, sealed closed and finally bathed in boiling water to seal the plastisol lids.  The lids are lined with plastisol, which is a vinyl substance that creates an airtight seal and solidifies when heated and cooled.  Each lug lid is twisted on with a non-continuous thread around the rim of the jar.  There are four metal lugs that face inwards that allow the lids to twist onto the threads of the glass jar.   To close the lid, one only needs to twist less than a full term to secure. Jars can be sterilized in boiling water or baked in the oven at 225 degrees F before filling.  Each glass jar and lid can be used without and after the initial sealing.  After the glass jars are boiled and sealed, the lids will pull inwards to show they are that will make a soft popping sound the first time they are opened.
