Preserving

•Only use usual preserving jars of the same dimension.

•Do not use jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins.

•Use the first shelf level from the bottom.

•Use the baking tray. You can put six 1-li- tre jars maximum on it.

•Fill all the jars to the same level and close them correctly.

Preserving tables

Soft fruit

•Put the jars on the shelf, make sure that they do not touch each other.

•Fill approximately 1/2 litre of water into the flat baking tray to have sufficient mois- ture in the oven.

•When the liquid lightly starts to bubble in the first jars (after about 35-60 minutes with 1 litre jars), switch off the oven or de- crease the temperature to 100°C ( see ta- ble).

Information on acrylamides

Important! According to the newest scientific knowledge, if you brown food (specially the one which contains starch),

acrylamides can pose a health risk. Thus, we recommend that you cook at the lowest temperatures and do not brown food too much.
