There is enough room on this for upto 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 touchingeach other.• Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray so that sufficient moistureis produced in the oven.• As soon as the liquid in the first jars starts to simmer (after approx. 35-60minutes for 1 litre jars), switch off the oven or adjust the temperature to100°C (see table).Preserves tableThe times and temperatures for making preserves are for guidance only.Preserve Temperaturein°CCooking timeuntil simmeringin mins.Continue to cookat 100°Cin mins.Soft fruitStrawberries, blueberries,raspberries, ripe gooseberries 160-170 35-45 ---Unripe gooseberries 160-170 35-45 10-15Stone fruitPears, quinces, plums 160-170 35-45 10-15VegetablesCarrots 1)1) Leave standing in oven when switched off160-170 50-60 5-10Mushrooms 1) 160-170 40-60 10-15Cucumbers 160-170 50-60 ---Mixed pickles 160-170 50-60 15Kohlrabi, peas, asparagus 160-170 50-60 15-20Beans 160-170 50-60 ---
