Use the Right Canner for the Job!
Whether you are a new or life-long home food preserver; you may have noticed that there are a variety of canners available. It is important recognize the pH of the food being processed will indicate what type of canner can be used. For high-acid foods (low pH), a boiling water bath canner or steam canner can be used. For low-acid (high pH) a pressure canner MUST be used.
