I’ve always used paraffin to seal my jelly jars but now Ive heard that I need to put my jelly through a boiling water bath. Why? A. In keeping with current research, it is necessary to make changes in the guidelines for cann ing jelly. Previously, we recom mended the open kettle method and the use of paraffin. Neither of these methods are considered safe for long-term storage any longer. It is now recommended to process jelly products in a boiling water bath for a short period of time. Hot jelly should be carefully ladled into hot sterilized jars, leaving 'A inch head space. Adjust two-piece vacuum caps. Process jelly for 5 minutes in a boiling water bath canner. Q.

I have always added salt to my tomatoes and now I am told that I need to add citric acid. Why? A. Salt is not a neccessary ingre dient when canning vegetables. You may omit salt when canning any vegetable. The small amount added is only for flavor and not for preser ving. However, salt is a necessary ingredient in pickles and must not be changed or omitted from pickle recipes. Because of continued con cern regarding the acidity of tomatoes, extensive research was completed to determie the safest methods for processing tomato pro ducts. the addition of bottled lemon juice or citric acid is now required when canning tomatoes-whole, crushed, or juiced. The required acidification is 'A teaspoon citric acid or 1 tablespoon of bottled lemon juice per pint and 'h teaspoon citric acid or 2 tablespoons bottled lemon juice per quart. Q. I doubled my recipe for strawberry jam and it would not gel, even though I used exactly twice the recommended ingredients. Why won’t a doubled recipe gel? A. Soft spreads will not always gel when the recipe is doubled. Increas ing the size of the recipe is not recommended. Better success is ob tained by making two separate bat ches of a recipe rather than doubl ing the size. Member Jewelers of America, Inc <1 Peterson’s Heppner
