Fagor ELITE PRESSURE COOKER User Manual - Home Canning Recipes
25
Store in a clean, cool, dark, dry place.
The best temperature is between 50
and 70 °F. Avoid storing canned foods
in a warm place near hot pipes, a range
or a furnace, or in direct sunlight. They
lose quality in a few weeks or months,
depending on the temperature and
may even spoil. Keep canned goods
dry. Dampness may corrode metal lids
and cause leakage so food will spoil.
For best quality, use canned foods
within one year.
