1c

Baño de agua hirviendo

1d

Baño de vapor o baño maría

This is a method of canning that involves a shallow pan with water in the bottom. The lid for this method is rather deep, as to allow for the top clearance of the filled jars. The shallow pool of water is heated to boiling as to create steam. The steam processes the filled jars. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) does not recommend steam canning because processing times for currently available equipment has not been researched.

1e

Olla abierta

This method of canning uses a large pot where the product to be canned is heated to boiling as to purge out any impurities. The filling is then packed into hot jars after which the seals and bands are processed. The jars will seal on there own. No processing is needed for this method of canning. This USDA recommends that this process not be used because it does not prevent all risk of spoilage.

1f

La pectina

Under acidic conditions, pectin forms a gel, and it can be used as an edible thickening agent in processed foods. This effect is used for making jams and jellies.

1g

Empaque caliente

Food is packed into jars after being cooked and while still hot. It is then placed in a pressure cooker.

Killing all forms of bacteria and other pathogens present on an item (such as a jar).

Escaldar

Immersing a fruit or vegetable in boiling water for a minute or two. This splits the skin, easing the task of removing the peel.

1k

Jalea

A jelly is a sweet or savoury food gel, usually made through the addition of gelatin or pectin to edible liquids. "True" jellies are smooth textured and made from fruit juice, such as grape jelly.

1l

Dulce

is a type of sweet spread or condiment made with certain fruits or vegetables, sugar, and sometimes pectin. In the United States and Canada, jams are invariably made from mashed or ground fresh fruits.

1m

Mermelada

invariably refers to a conserve derived from a citrus fruit, most commonly from oranges. The recipe includes sliced or chopped fruit peel, which is simmered in fruit juice and water until soft; indeed marmalade is sometimes described as jam with fruit peel.
