Now is the time to prepare for
canning season. Do not overlook the
importance of checking the accuracy
of pressure canner dial gauges well
in advance of canning season.
“ Dial" type canner gauges can be
tested for free during the month of
July by Carol Bennett. Morrow
County Extension Agent. Gauge
testing clinics will be held in Irrigon
on Thursday, July 11 and 25, bet
ween 1:30 and 4:30 p.m. at the
County Annex Building, Third and
Main. Gauges can be tested in Hepp
ner on Friday, July 12, 19, and 26,
between 1:30 and 4:30 p.m. at the
Pettyjohn Office Building.
Newest USDA food preservation
guidelines will be available at the
clinics. Here are USDA answers to
com m only asked prevention
questions.
Q. 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. When I can my peaches or
cherries, there is always a space at
the bottom of the jar with the liquid.
The fruit seems to rise to the top of
the jar. Why does this happen?

firm, ripe fruit and a light or medium
syrup. Using the hot pack method
will also remove air which causes
fruit to float.
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.
