Notes on preserving
• Use the baking tray for preserving. There is room
for up to six jars, each with a capacity of 1 litre.
• The jars should all be filled to the same level and
closed.
• Position the jars on the baking tray so that they do
not come into contact with one another.
• Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray
to create sufficient moisture in the oven.
• As soon as bubbles begin to appear in the first jars
(for 1-litre jars this takes about 35-60 minutes),
switch off the oven or reduce the temperature to
100 °C (see table).
