in-the-kitchen Thickening a sauce after the fact...

[Roguejim]

I cooked a habanero sauce yesterday, and should have let it cook down longer. After canning it (only 2 pints), I see that it's too watery. Any reason I can't put it back on the stove to cook off some of the water? Any problems I'm not considering? Thanks.

I don`t see why not, Jim. Then again, I`m not a canner.

No issues at all with reducing it more.  Just use new lids when re-canning it and process as usual.  good to go~
