CANNING BASICS

A SHORT HISTORY OF HOME CANNING

Whether youre new to canning or an old hand at putting up its comforting to - photo 6

Whether youre new to canning or an old hand at putting up, its comforting to know that people have been preserving food for millennia.

Long before there were glass jars to pack them in, there were pickled foods and potted jams. The term canning dates back to the military practice of putting food in tin canisters or cans, the method that kept Napoleons French soldiers fed in the early 1800s.

Glass jars werent widely used in the United States for home food preservation until after the Civil War. Early American cooks preserved foods mostly by smoking or drying themor by putting them in crocks with salt, vinegar, sugar, or alcohol solutions; keeping them in the root cellar; periodically scraping off surface molds and scum; and taking their chances.

Self-sealing heatproof Mason jars, named for the fellow who invented them, were developed in the 1850s, and early attempts at canning in them yielded more than a few exploding jars, food poisonings, and deaths. It wasnt until 1915 that scientists identified what was causing botulism poisoning, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture began developing guidelines to keep the anaerobic bacteria from canned goods. Modern canning practicesusing heat, pressure, and acidity to kill or slow bacteriastem from this.

Newer revelations about canning include:

Those paraffin wax seals Grandma used on jams are a no-no. So is letting hot food cool in a hot jar to create a vacuum. Processing jars with canning lids in a covered pot of boiling water or a pressure canner for a specified length of time is essential.

The acid or pH level of tomatoes and other foods can vary considerably depending on ripeness, freshness, variety, and growing conditions. Recipes that worked fine in the 1950s might not work as well with modern varieties and changing climates.

Certain low-acid foods (meats, fish, most vegetables, ripe tomatoes, and some fruits) are most reliably and safely canned in a pressure canner. Alternatives include adding acid (vinegar or bottled lemon juice or citric acid powder) to the food before boiling-water canningor preparing it for refrigerator or freezer storage rather than for the shelf.

The density of the canned food (thin slices versus whole cucumbers) and the altitude where youre canning (11 feet above sea level in Mobile, Alabama, or 13,000 feet in Denver, Colorado) affect sterilization and processing time. The thicker the food and the higher the altitude, the longer youll have to boil.

A LITTLE FOOD SCIENCE

There are three primary ways to halt or stop the growth of harmful bacteria - photo 7

There are three primary ways to halt or stop the growth of harmful bacteria that naturally occur in food: Heat or chill them to extremes, deprive them of oxygen and free water, and add enough acid to keep them from growing.

All three come into play in canning. To what degree and in what combination depend largely on how acidic the food is.
