Canning is a great method for preserving foods that will last for a long time. It is important that you do the canning process correctly, or else the food will spoil and be unsafe to consume.
Before you begin canning, you need to know what kind of method you should use for the type of food you are preparing. There are two categories of food for canning:
High acid foods
•Tomatoes and fruits
•Pickeled foods like sauerkraut
Low acid foods
•Dairy and meat
•Vegetables (excluding tomatoes)
These two types of foods require different canning methods to prevent bacteria from growing. The high acid foods require using the boiling water method. The boiling method requires you to boil the food for a certain amount of time before canning.
Low acid foods require using the pressure canning method. When using this method you will need a pressure canner, which will heat the food to 240F. This method will kill the bacteria in low acid foods.
It is very important to use the correct method for the foods you are canning and preserving. We hope you enjoy these delicious canning and preserving recipes!
