Must Pickles Shrink?
Dear Aunt Daisy, You were enquiring in your morning session about the reason for pickles shrinking in the jars. I have discovered that if the pickles are bottled COLD, as with Tomato Sauce, the result is most satisfactory. It is rather awkward to get the pickles into the bottles; but if they are pressed well down with a spoon and filled right to’ the top, it is not even necessary to keep the bottles airtight, I just use cellophane paper tops, or pasted paper ones. For small-fruit jams-goose | berry, strawberry, and cape-gooseberry, etc., if the jam is allowed to cool for about 15 minutes before bottling, the fruit will not rise to the top leaving the jelly at the bottom. ; Hoping this will help your listener, -Wanganui.
