Pressure Canning Fruits
Fruits may be processed either in a boiling water bath or in a pressure canner. When using pressure
method,
time processing very carefully
because fruits are easily overcooked. To keep peeled fruit from
darkening before it is packed, place it in water to which ascorbic or citric acid has been added. These
products may be obtained at drug or grocery stores. Follow package directions, or drop fruit in a solution
of 1 gal. water, 2 tbsp salt and 2 tbsp vinegar. REDUCE PRESSURE NORMALLY.
