-----------------BOILING WATER BATH CANNING----------------------
Boiling water bath canning is the method used for home canning of acid
foods, because boiling point temperatures of 212 degrees F are
sufficient to destroy yeasts, molds, enzymes, and bacteria in them.
You place jars packed with hot food on a rack inside a water bath
canner and cover them by at least one inch of boiling water, then
cover the canner and boil - from the time the water reaches a full
rolling boil - for the time given in the recipe.
Since foods high in acidity tend to resist the botulism bacteria,
they are the easiest to can. tomatoes are popular with home canners.
Rhubarb, which is grown like a vegetable, but usually served in
sweetened pies, is high enough in acidity to be processed as an acid
food. Although prepared from cabbage fermented in salt, sauerkraut is
so much higher an acidity than raw cabbage that it also becomes an
acid food. And, although often prepared from low acid vegetables,
pickles and relishes are also processed like high acid foods because
they are combined with acid rich vinegar. All of these foods cn be
canned with boiling water bath method.
If you live at high altitudes, you must remember to add additional
processing time for every altitude above 1,000 feet above sea level.
Make adjustments according to the chart below.
Altitude adjustment - boiling water bath canner If the total
processing time is 20 minutes or less; increase processing time by:
ALTITUDE IN FEET INCREASE BY 1,000 1 minute 2,000 2 minutes
3,000 3 minutes 4,000 4 minutes 5,000 5 minutes 6,000 6 minutes 7,000
7 minutes 8,000 8 minutes 9,000 9 minutes 10,000 10
minutes
If total processing time is more than 20 minutes; increase processing
time by:
ALTITUDE IN FEED INCREASE BY 1,000 2 minutes 2,000 4 minutes
3,000 6 minutes 4,000 8 minutes 5,000 10 minutes 6,000 12 minutes
7,000 14 minutes 8,000 16 minutes 9,000 18 minutes
10,000 20 minutes
You can use your steam pressure canner as a boiling water bath canner
when the lid is not locked in place. The canner is a big pow, usually
20 to 21 quart capacity with a lid and a special rack that fits down
inside the pot to hold jars off the bottom and away from each other.
Often this rack has handles and special ridges so that you can lift
it out of the water and hold it in place while putting in the jars.
If you already own a very large pot, you can probably turn it into a
water bath canner by finding a rack that will fit down in the pot,
covering the bottom. The pot must be deep enough to allow a minimum
of two inches of space above the jars as they sit on the rack. The
jars must be covered by at least one inch of water, two inches is
better, with another inch or so for boiling room. To help you
estimate, pint jars need a pot of a minimum of 8 to 10 inches deep,
and quart jars need a pot of a minimum of 9 to 12 inches deep.
