preparations Jars
- Use jars which
are free from cracks, chips or flaws – the best sizes to use are 450g/1lb
although 1kg/2lb jars can be successfully used for pickling fruit.
Prepare the jars by washing well in warm soapy water and rinsing
thoroughly. Dry the jars in a cool oven (140C, 275F, Gas Mark 1).
Fill whilst still warm to prevent the jars from cracking when the hot
filling is added.

to the top then wipe the rims of the jar with a damp cloth. Immediately
cover with a waxed disc whilst still hot (wax side down). Allow to cool then
cover with cellophane, securing
with a rubber band. For long term storage secure the cellophane with a screw top
lid. Storage

in a cool dark place.
