Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points
when home canning with your appliance. Check with
the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture)
Web site and be sure to read all the information they
have available as well as follow their recommenda-
tions for home canning procedures.
•
Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no
ridges that radiate from the bottom center when
home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when
the bottom surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to
check canner bottom.
•
Make sure the diameter of the canner does not
exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element mark-
ings or burner.
•
It is recommended to use smaller diameter can-
ners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops
and to center canners on the burner grates.
•
Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil
more quickly.
•
Use the highest heat setting when first bringing
the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, re-
duce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain
that boil.
•
Use tested recipes and follow instructions carful-
ly. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural
Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars
for the latest canning information.
•
It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high
heat for an extended amount of time.
