### CANNING WITHOUT SUGAR

        In  canning  regular fruits without sugar, it  is  very

    important
     to select fully ripe but firm fruits of the  best

    quality.
      Prepare these as described for hot packs  in  the

    data
    base, but use water or regular unsweetened fruit juices

    instead
     of  sugar syrup.  Juice made from the  fruit  being

    canned
    is best.  Blends of unsweetened apple, pineapple  and

    white
    grape juice are also good for filling over solid fruit

    pieces.
      Adjust headspaces and lids and use the  processing

    recommendations
      given  for  regular  fruits.   Add   sugar

    substitutes,
    if desired, when serving.
