“	“Can be used to pickle food. Requires jar lid.”
	— In-game tooltip

An empty jar is a tool used in cooking.

Usage

An empty jar, along with a jar lid, can be used to pickle certain foods, preserving them for a much longer time. Jarred food is fresh for 60 days and stale for another 30 days.

After jarring, it is necessary to cook the jar of food in a heat source. Otherwise, the food will rot as fast as if it were not jarred.

Upon opening a jar, the empty jar and vegetables are returned to the character. The jar lid is not reusable.
