    Low-Temperature Pasteurization Treatment For Processing

    CAUTION: USE ONLY WHEN RECIPE INDICATES

    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 degrees to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) water. Then,
    add hot water to a level 1 inch above jars. Heat the water
    enough to maintain 180 degrees to 185 degrees Fahrenheit
    water temperature for 30 minutes. Check with a candy or
    jelly thermometer to be certain that the water temperature
    is at least 180 degrees Fahrenheit during the entire 30
    minutes. Temperatures higher than 185 degrees Fahrenheit
    may cause unnecessary softening of pickles.
