Canning Fruit Recipe

MISS M. SAMPSON.



To can strawberries, raspberries or plums: to each pound of sugar add

one half pint of water, boil till you have a rich syrup, let stand till

cold; have your jars packed full of raw fruit (not crushed) and fill

with the cold syrup, put on the covers and screws, (not the rubber

rings,) and place in cold water up to the neck of the jars, you will

need straw or chips between the jars to prevent them touching each other

or burning on the bottom, let the water boil for fifteen minutes, have

some hot syrup to fill jars, put on rubber rings, screw up tightly and

keep in a cool dark place.
