recanning

Jarring food twice

Recanning is the process of putting something into cans again, typically food that has been removed from original containers or needs repackaging.

The term appears in food processing and preservation contexts: The factory recalled the batch for recanning after the labeling error.

It can also refer to resealing home-canned goods that failed to seal properly.
