Default Citric Acid question

"The Joneses" wrote

If you get a chance, call around to local drug stores or better yet,
Jewish, Mediterranean or Middle Eastern ethnic groceries to find citric
acid (sour salt). One has to use so little of it (!) and it has little
taste (just sour).


Humm! Local 'Star of Israel' place here. How much citric acid per quart?

Good luck, and let us know how you do. Have your read some of our posts
about letting the jars rest in the water with the heat turned off after
the timing is done for about 5 min or so? Reduces chances of cracking jar.
And don't can nekkid.


Hehehe wasnt planning to can nekkid and no, I'm new here so havent seen the
earlier posts much.

My next project will be to remind myself how to make some of th simple
jellies I did years ago. Used the pectin pouches and had nice home stuff.
