Can Mason Jars Handle Heat?
Mason jars are designed to handle high temperatures and are safe for canning and preserving food. They can withstand heat up to 212°F (100°C) for extended periods without cracking or breaking. However, sudden changes in temperature, such as moving a hot jar to a cold surface or placing a cold jar in hot water, can cause them to break. It is important to handle mason jars with care and follow proper canning techniques to ensure safety.
