Wondering how to tell fact from fiction when it comes to food preservation advice? On this week’s episode of the Perfectly Preserved Podcast, we discuss the safety concerns around the recommendation to reduce the amount of water in a water bath so that the water doesn’t cover jars during processing. This poor advice comes with claims that it will reduce siphoning. We’re here to set the record straight!
We take time to discuss the four things that can cause siphoning in canning and share our best tips for reducing siphoning safely. You’ll leave this episode knowing why you should avoid packing raw foods, how to minimize temperature fluctuation during processing, the best process for removing your jars from processing, and why following the recommended headspace in a recipe is important. We also equip you with the knowledge of what to do if siphoning occurs during processing.
This episode is a tale of caution not to follow everything you come across on social media! We love being your guides for safe canning practices.
