Jams and Jellies need not be USDA recipes. All water bath canning must follow either USDA or Ball Blue Book recommendations. Recipes and processing times listed by the National Center for Home Food Preservation are approved by USDA. This information is available on their website http://www.uga. edu/nchfp/. 2. All canned products, including jellies, must be exhibited in standard canning jars, sealed with flat metal lids, and screw band rings. Rings must be removable for judges’ visibility. Products not canned in standard jars will be disqualified. 3. All canned food exhibits must be labeled using round CO803 labels available from the WSU Extension office, and entry day at Fair. The label must be placed on top of the flat metal lid of the jar. Processing method will be either boiling water bath or pressure canned; packing method will be raw pack or hot pack. 4. Products canned at higher altitudes will need additional processing time as described in food preservation publications. Fair judges will accept longer processing times if the words “adjusted for high altitude” appear in parenthesis after the time processed. 5. On labels for canned tomato products, indicate if citric acid or lemon juice has been added. 6. Dried foods must be exhibited in glass jars for display purposes at State Fair. Label CO304 must be attached to the lid of the container. 7. Because canned goods, pickles, jams, jellies, etc. may be opened by the judge, exhibitor may wish to prepare products in pint jars. 8.
