Why do we want to preserve foods at home?
![Page 3: Hot Water Bath Canning](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815152550346895dbf7668/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
How do we preserve How do we preserve foods?foods?
Refrigeration and Freezing
Heat Processingcanning, pasteurization, blanching
Fermentation
Control of Moisturedrying, adding sugar or salt

HHeeaatt ProcessingProcessing
BlanchingShort heating to stop enzymes, soften
tissue, prevent color loss and remove air from tissue
PasteurizationMild heat treatment designed to stop
enzymes, destroy growing bacteria and kill yeast and molds (milk, juice, pickles, jam)
Canning (commercially sterile)High heat to destroy harmful microbes

Pressure Cannerprocesses foods at 240˚F or
250˚F used for low acid foods
meats, vegetables
Hot Water Bath Canner

• use threaded home-canning jars with 2-piece lids
• free of cracks and chips• wash empty jars in hot soapy water
and rinse well before use• if your process time is under 10
minutes in a water bath canner, jars must be pre-sterilized – full rolling boil for 10 minutes
Jars
![Page 12: Hot Water Bath Canning](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815152550346895dbf7668/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• use 2-piece lid with a self-sealing lid and ring
• use lids within 1 year of purchase
• follow manufacturers directions in preparing lids for use
• do not use old, dented, deformed lids
Lids

Pre – heating the Canner
• Fill boiling water bath canner with correct amount of water and begin heating
• Can adjust water level after adding jars
• 1 – 2 inches above tops of jars
![Page 15: Hot Water Bath Canning](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815152550346895dbf7668/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Check jars to be sure they are free of nicks and cracks
• Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water
• If processing time is under 10 minutes, sterilized jars by boiling for 10 minutes
• Heat flat lids as directed by manufacturer
remember to use new lids each time!
Prepare jars and lids

Hot Pack vs Raw Pack
Raw pack• unheated foods packed directly into jars• boiling hot water, syrup or juice poured over food • packed tightly to adjust for shrinkage during processing• will tend float in jars due to less air removed (especially
fruit)• better suited to processing vegetables in a pressure
canner
Hot pack• food heated to boiling, simmered 3 – 5 minutes• hot food packed into jars, boiling liquid added • best way to remove air• increases amount of food added to each jar• over time, color and flavor will hold up better than raw
packed foods
Enough syrup, water or juice to fill around the solid food and cover the food

• Fill jars with hot food• Headspace
space between underside of lid and top of food
• Remove air bubblesuse a flat plastic or wooden spatula
• Place lidswipe jar rim with a clean wet rag before placing
heated lid
• Tighten screw bandsfingertip tight

• Fill canner half full of hot water and begin heating before preparing food.
add a splash of white vinegar to water to prevent hard water build-up on jars
• Place jars in rack on bottom of canner.• Add more boiling water, if necessary.
water should be 1 – 2 inches above tops of jars
• Cover canner and start timing when water returns to a vigorous boil.
• When recommended time is up, turn off heat and remove the canner lid. Wait 5 minutes before removing jars.

• Remove jars with lifter, one at a time• Place hot jars directly on dry towels
leave one inch of space between jars during cooling
• Cool 12 – 24 hoursdo not disturb!!
• After cool, test seals• Storage
