Veiligheidsopmerking

Low-acid vegetables: do NOT use a boiling-water canner; use a true pressure canner. NCHFP permits changing proportions or substituting other vegetables with suitable canning guidance, except leafy greens, dried beans, cream-style corn, winter squash, sweet potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage. Do not dry-can; vegetables must be covered with liquid. Keep 1 inch headspace and adjust pressure for elevation and canner type. Never taste jars with failed seals, bulging lids, leakage, mould/mold, gas, unusual odour/odor or other spoilage; discard safely.
