Preserving, bottling
Food can be preserved and bottled in special preserving jars. Only use undamaged jars with glass lids, suitable rubber seals and
sealing clips that sit correctly. Do not use jars with screw or bayonet tops as the pressure that builds up cannot be reduced.
Up to 5 jars with a maximum volume of 1 litre each may be placed inside the cooking space. Always use same-size jars.
