PRESERVING
• When making preserves, only use commercially available preserve jars of the
same size.
• Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not suitable.
• When making preserves, use the first shelf position from the bottom.
• Use the baking tray for making preserves. There is enough room on this for up
to six 1-litre preserving jars.
• The jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped shut.
• Place the jars on the baking tray in such a way that they are not touching
each other.
• Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray, so that there is sufficient
moisture in the oven.
• As soon as the liquid in the first jars begins to simmer (with 1--litrejars after
about 35-60 minutes), switch off the oven or reduce the temperature to
100°C (see table).
