You can use the microwave to can
small amounts of fruit, vegetables and
meat in glass jars. Prepare the items as
you normally would.
Do not fill the jars more than 1" (2.5 cm)
below the rim.
Only use clear adhesive tape or
microwave-safe clips to close the
jars.
Never use metal clips or jars with
screw-on lids.
Do not use canisters for canning.
When canisters are used, excess
pressure is produced which may
cause the canisters to explode. Risk
of injury and damage!
For best results, use no more than four
1 pint (
1
/
2
- -liter) jars at a time when
canning. Place the jars on the turntable.
Set the power level to 900 W and bring
the jar contents to a boil. The amount of
time required for this depends on:
–
The initial temperature of the
contents.
–
The number of jars.
The amount of time required for the
contents in all jars to start bubbling
evenly is as follows:
1jar..............approx. 3 minutes
2 jars .............approx. 6 minutes
3 jars .............approx. 9 minutes
4 jars ............approx. 12 minutes
This is enough time for canning fruit
and cucumbers.
For vegetables, reduce the power to
450 W once the contents start
bubbling.
Cook
- Carrots for approx. 15 minutes
- Peas for approx. 25 minutes.
After canning
Remove jars from the oven interior,
cover with a towel and leave to set in a
location protected from drafts for
approx. 24 hours.
Remove the clips or the adhesive tape
and make sure that all glasses are
sealed properly.
