Remember that spices such as salt, sugar, as well as vinegar and its substitutes are used in recipes for winter preparations not only for taste, but primarily as preservatives. Therefore, in no case should you reduce the concentration of salt and sugar, and also replace vinegar (essence) with a weaker concentration than indicated in the recipe, otherwise vinegar (salt / sugar) will not show their preservative properties and the workpiece will be spoiled.

Follow the basic rules of conservation so that your billet is stored for a long time and without problems:
- wash vegetables thoroughly, even if you peel them
- remove any debris, dirt, earth from fruits and greenery
- get rid of rotten products
- do not reduce the amount of preservatives and follow the tips described in the recipe
- sterilize empty cans (10 minutes - 0.5 liters; 15 minutes - 1 liter; 20 minutes - 2 liters; 25 minutes - 3 liters), boil the lids for 10 minutes
- when rolling up cans with a seaming machine, make sure that the lids fit tightly to the jar
- turn the jars upside down to check the quality of the twist.

If you are new to canning, have little experience in home preparations, it is better to be safe and sterilize cans of vegetables, even if the recipe says the opposite . This guarantees you that the banks will not swell during storage if you did something wrong, did not report something/shifted or violated the technology.
Remember that banks swell more often for the only reason: excess gases are formed in them . And those, in turn, appear because they are isolated by microorganisms trapped in the workpiece .
Anyway, the swelling of the cans has nothing to do with the quality of the recipe, which has already been successfully prepared.
