Otit, WEllAVE.Pktk .PICK=UP AND` DELIVERY SERVICE How to store home made pickle products Li ned up on the counter before you are your home pickled products, your work in the kitchen completed! But, before you sit back and admire your handiwork remember an important part in producing good quality pickled products still remains - proper storage. Food Advisory Services, Agriculture Canada offers these tips on successful storage: pickles may be stored in sterilized glass jars or, for dills or nine-day pickles, in home canning crocks. Use only per- fect jars or crocks - discard chipped or cracked ones. - jars should be washed in warm soapy • water, then sterilized in the oven at 225°F for 10 minutes or boiled in water for 15 min. pour boiling water over lids or boil for 3 to 5 minutes, according to manufacturers' directions - some pickles, relishes and sauces tend to discolor if packed in unsealed jars. Glass jars specially designed for home can., ning are airtight and should be used when recommended in the recipe. - if pickles are left in crocks they should be well covered with the pickle mixture to prevent spoilage. A plate or wooden board cut to fit inside the crock should be placed on top of the pickles and weighted down. - wipe the jars with a damp cloth, taking care not to disturb the screw band and label and date each jar. - store pickle'd products in a cool, dark, dry place. A warm storage area may lead to flavor deterior- ation. Light can cause changes in the color of stored food. If the storage area cannot be kept dark, wrap each jar in paper or place in boxes to keep the light out. • avoid storage areas whe're there is a risk of freezing. This can cause jars to crack or can spoil the „texture of some products. - store pickled products upright to help eliminate the possibility of leakage - few homes have adequate storage space for quantities larger than a year's supply and most products can be replenished each year. As a final note - after one week, recheck each jar for any signs of leakage and sp oilage. If there is, the food must be thrown out. Otherwise, prepare to enjoy your handiwork in the months to come. 4 THE BRUSSELS POST:, .00TOBER 3, 1976 r Huronview 'Attend first Region 3 I Washing Dishes .
