(2) starting with HOTtap water for fastest
heating of large quantitiesof water
CAUTION:
_: Safe canningrequires that harmful
microorganismsare destroyedand
thatthe jars are sealed completely.
Whencanning foods in a water-bath
canner,a gentle but steady boil mustbe
maintainedfor the required time. When
canning foods in a pressure canner, the
pressure mustbe maintained for the
required time.
After you have adjustedthe controls,
it is very important to make sure the
prescribed boil or pressure levels are
maintainedfor the required time.
Since youmust make sure to process the
canningjars forthe prescribed time, with
no interruption in processing time, do not
can on any cooktop surface element if
your canner is not flat.
