How long am I supposed to let them sit?

So easy and delicious! If you find you have too many lemons - try this recipe. One suggestion - my lemons were too cold from being the frig, so after packing the jars and liquid and adding the hot lids & rings, They got a hot water bath for about 6 minutes. This ensured the lids would pop down and seal.
