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.
Filling the jars – Fill 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
– Store
in a cool dark place.
