Making Preserves

Oven function: Bottom heat

•For preserving, use only commercial- ly available preserve jars of the same size.

•Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not suitable.

•When making preserves, use the first shelf position from the bot- tom.

•Use the baking tray for making pre- serves. There is enough room on this for up to six 1-litre preserving jars.

The times and temperatures for making preserves are for guidance only.

•The jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped shut.

•Place the jars on the baking tray in such a way that they are not touch- ing each other.

•Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray so that sufficient moisture is produced in the oven.

•As soon as the liquid in the first jars starts to simmer (after approx. 35-60 minutes for 1 litre jars), switch off the oven or adjust the temperature to 100°C (see table).
