Instructions for pressure canning method:

Processing Instructions: Fill the jars. Allow the proper headspace according to processing directions for specific foods. This is necessary so that all the extra air will be removed during processing, and a tight vacuum seal will be formed.

To make sure that air bubbles have not been trapped inside the jar, run a bubble freer or any plastic or rubber- like utensil around the edges of the jar, gently shifting the food, so that any trapped air is released. After the air bubbles have been removed, more liquid may need to be added to the jar to ensure proper headspace.

Wipe off the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth. Screw on the lids, but not too tightly — air needs to escape during processing. Set the jars of food on the rack and lower the rack into the pressure cooker so steam can flow around each jar. Add 2-3 inches of boiling water to the bottom of the cooker (pour it between the jars, not directly on them, to prevent breakage). Put the lid on the cooker. Once pressure is reached, keep the pressure constant by regulating the heat under the pressure cooker. Do not lower the pressure by raising or lowering the heat during the processing. Keep drafts from blowing on the pressure cooker. Fluctuating pressure causes loss of liquid from jars and under- processing.

When the processing is completed, carefully remove the pressure cooker from the heat. If the pressure cooker is too heavy, simply turn it off.

WARNING: Let the pressure in the pressure cooker drop to zero using the natural release method. Do not use the cold water pressure release method for pressure canning. Never use the automatic release method to hasten the reduction in pressure when canning foods.

When the pressure cooker is depressurized, unlock the lid and tilt the far side up, so the steam escapes away from you. Use a jar lifter to carefully remove the jars from the pressure cooker. Place the hot jars on a rack, dry towels, boards or newspaper, right side up to prevent the jars from breaking on contact with a cold surface. Leave at least 1inch of space between the jars. Do not tighten the lids. Allow the jars to cool, untouched for 12 to 24 hours.

BOILING WATER BATH METHOD: The boiling water method is safe for high-acid foods such as fruits and pickles, as well as pie filling, jam, jellies, marmalade and other preserves. In this method, jars of food are heated by being completely covered with boiling water (212 ºF at sea level).

Note: If you are unsure of the PH value of the foods you want to cook, we strongly recommend using the pressure canning method.

Instructions for boiling water bath method:

Fill the pot about halfway with hot water. Turn on the burner and heat the water. Have the water in the canner hot but not boiling to prevent breakage of the jars when they’re placed in the canner. Follow the same steps detailed in the pressure cooker method for filling jars. When the water in the pot reaches a rolling boil, begin counting the correct processing time. Boil gently and steadily for the recommended time, adjusting the heat and adding more boiling water as necessary.

Use a jar lifter to carefully remove the jars as soon as the processing time is up. Place the hot jars right side up on a rack, dry towels, boards or newspapers to prevent the jars from breaking on contact with a cold surface. Leave at least 1 inch of space between jars.
