📝 Preparation Steps
1
Gooseberries may be canned as a raw pack or hot pack fruit. I'd recommend raw pack, and that's how I've written these instructions. Hot pack instructions are in the notes.

2
Prepare gooseberries by washing the fruit and picking them over to remove any spoiled or unripe fruit. Use a sharp paring knife to remove tops and tails.

3
Prepare a water bath canner and bring it up to scalding hot, but not simmering for raw pack (about 140 degrees F).
4
Fill canning jars with raw gooseberries, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.

5
Prepare your canning syrup and bring it up to a boil. If using extra light syrup, you'll need 3/4 cup sugar and 6 1/2 cups water for every 9-pint canner batch. You can also can them in water or fruit juice, or heavier syrups. See notes.

Pour boiling syrup over the gooseberries in jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.

Cap with 2 part canning lids and process in a water bath canner for ⏱️ 15 minutes for pints and ⏱️ 20 minutes for quarts if below 1,000 feet in elevation. See notes for higher altitudes.

Once the canning time is complete, remove jars with a jar lifter and allow them to cool to room temperature on a towel on the counter before checking seals.
