Store Home-Canned
Foods Carefully
Properly home canned
food stored in a cool, dry
place will keep good eating
quality for a year. Canned
food stored near hot pipes, a
range or a furnace, or in
direct sunlight may lose
quality in a few weeks or
months, depending on the
temperature.
A dry storage area is
important because damp
ness may corrode the metal
lids or rot the rubber rings on
home canned food jars. This
can cause leakage and
subsequent spoilage.
Canned goods which have
been frozen, thawed and
refrozen, are safe to use IF
the seal or container has not
been broken. However, the
quality will be poor and
possibly unacceptable. If
jars must be stored in an
unheated place, protect the
jars by wrapping them in
paper or covering with a
blanket.
If you follow directions for
home canning carefully and
the produce was in good
condition initially, there is
little chance of spoilage in
your home canned foods. But
you must always be on
guard.
Look for leaks in con
tainers. If you detect a leak,
don’t use die contents.
When opening canned
foods check for unnatural
odors. If an “off” odor is
present, discard the con
tents. Do not taste canned
foods before first boiling 10
minutes or more. Boiling will
de-toxify any botulism toxin.
