How to keep Clam juice

food-safetyseafood

I have about three gallons of clam juice, after steaming about 400 clams. How can I safely keep, can, or store this much juice for further use?

Best Answer

I would suggest to reduce the juice as much es possible (to safe space later on in the freezer or shelf) and either

  • freeze it or
  • can it (see here and here for canning with a pressure cooker and here for canning with an oven)

Just putting the juice into the fridge is not sufficient. Neither just boiling the juice and filling it into a jar is sufficient because then you are not sterilizing the juice but only pasteurizing.
