Title: Low-Temperature Pasteurization Treatment
Categories: Canning, Preserves, Pickles
Yield: 1 text

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.

Broccoli and Pasta (the corrected recipe)

organic broccoli
garden rotini (the screw shaped pasta, that includes spinach, carrot,
beet, and plain)
a shot or two of Pace mild salsa
1 small bunch of fresh cilantro, chopped
2 slices of red onion, chopped fine

Pan broil the broccoli (chopped in florettes and peel the stem and chop)
so that it turns a dark green and stays crisp. Cook the rotini until
it is al dente. Mix in the broccoli, the salsa, chopped cilantro
and the chopped red onion. The idea is to enhance the flavors in
the commercial salsa by adding more of them from fresher sources.
It tastes good.

Slice cukes very thinly. Place in glass bowl and mix with 1/2 tsp. salt.
Let sit 10 minutes. Drain excess liquid from bowl. Mix sugar and vinegar
together, pour over cukes and mix, and chill.
