PRESSURE CANNING
Canning
Foods with lower acid content have a greater potential for spoilage and contamination
than high acidity foods. Proper pressure canning minimizes the chances of spoilage and
contamination.

Never alter cooking times, temperatures or ingredients when pressure canning. Doing so
can be extremely dangerous as there is no room for experimentation. Following the exact
cooking times, temperatures, and ingredients listed in the recipe will ensure that your
food is protected from harmful enzymes, bacteria and mold. Altering the cooking time may
destroy the food’s nutrients and flavor.
Enzymes found in food may promote growth of yeast and mold, which in turn causes
food to spoil. These enzymes can be killed at temperatures 212°F and higher. Other
contaminants, such as salmonella, staphylococcus aureus, and clostridium botulinum,
can only be killed at temperatures 240°F. These higher temperatures can only be
achieved by pressure canning.
