Ingredients
10
lb
carrots
2
Tb
salt
approximately
boiling water
Instructions
To begin, wash the carrots.
Peel the carrots and cut off the ends, then wash the carrots again.
Dice the carrots or cut them into lengths to fit into the jars. (See my
Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots
post for reference.)
Pack the carrots into the jars as tightly as you can leaving 1 inch of headspace.
Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to each pint, or 1 teaspoon to each quart jar depending upon which size jar you wish to can in.
Ladle boiling water into each jar. Using a bubble wand to remove bubbles and then add additional water if needed to maintain the 1 inch headspace.
Wipe the jar rims with a damp cloth that is dipped in white vinegar.
Place a lid and ring on the jar and place the jar in the pressure canner. Do this with all of the jars.
Seal your pressure canner and begin heating it up. When you have a steady stream of steam coming from the vent, set your timer for 10 minutes.
Place your weight on the vent and bring your canner up to the correct pressure (10 lb for weighted, 11 lb for gauge canners.)
Process pint jars for 25 minutes or quart jars for 30 minutes. See the article linked in the post in regards to adjusting for your elevation.
When the processing time has completed, turn off the heat and allow the canner pressure to come down on its own.
When the pressure has returned to 0, remove the weight and wait a minute.
Open you canner and let the jars rest for a few minutes.
Transfer the jars to a lined surface that is in a draft-free location.
Let the jars rest 12-24 hours.
Remove the rings and test the seals to make sure all of your jars are sealed.
Label your jars and set them in your pantry.
If any jars did not seal, set them in your refrigerator and use them right away.
