Canning
Before using the pressure cooker for canning, refer to the "USDA
Complete Guide to Home Canning" for more details.
The pressure cooker can be used to can foods with the water-bath method.
Only acidic fruits and vegetables are recommended. DO NOT use the pressure
cooker to can meat and seafood. The pressure cooker will produce sufficient
pressure and heat to safely process certain fruits and vegetables for canning
when used at up to 2,000 ft (610 m) above sea level.
In general, the higher the acid level in the food, the lower the possibility
