Yesterday we were canning green beans and my stovetop died on us. We had a run of beans on and was almost ready to put the weight onto the canner when this happened. When the beans cooled off we took them out of the sealed jars and put into fridge. Is it safe for us to reprocess them today or should we throw them out?
