Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently
used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
■
Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.

For more information, contact your local agricultural
■
extension office or refer to published home canning guides.
