Hints For The Home Fruit Preserver
Department of Agriculture advisor Miss Yvonne Webb outlines tips to prevent fruit float after sterilising. Avoid overly ripe fruit and long processing times, pack firmly, use appropriate syrup, and heat fruit briefly in syrup before packing. For soft fruit avoid overhandling or overcooking, peel in brine to prevent browning, and test jars before use. Prevent cracking by avoiding contact between bottles and container sides, using a wooden base or basket, and placing hot jars on wood or newspaper away from drafts.
