The following treatment results in a better product
texture but must be carefully managed to avoid
possible spoilage. Place jars in a canner filled half
way with warm (120 degree to 140 degree F) water.
Then, add hot water to a level 1 inch above jars. Heat
the water enough to maintain 180 degree to 185 degree
F water temperature for 30 minutes. Check with a candy
or jelly thermometer to be certain that the water
temperature is at least 180 degrees F during the
entire 30 minutes. Temperatures higher than 185
degrees F may cause unnecessary softening of pickles.
Caution: Use only when recipe indicates.
