Re: Canning without proper equipment

I would, here, water bath them (no need to pressurize high acid foods) with no fear, but without rings and lids? Nope. That's my concern. You certainly can pressure jan fruit, but you don't need to. IME< the fruit tends to get a smidge mushy and odd when pressurized; I did whole blueberries like that a few years ago and the result was inedible unless further processed into pie filling. :/

Re: Canning without proper equipment
Quote:
We only have electricity about half the day and no generator so no freezer for us. It'd be nice though. I would love to dry things but my "oven" is a metal box the size of my college TV that sits on top of my gas burner (so super small batches for big inconvenience) and we have a TON of bugs here. Even if I bought a bug screen the littlest ants would just walk under and help themselves. And yes, just high acid fruit with extra lime juice added. I'm not totally mad!
