Dairy describes the conditions in which a cheese is made. The cheese is made in a single dairy from milk brought in from a varying number of sources, all members of a co-operative.
Fruits which are preserved by placing the uncooked fruit in jars with sugar and water; the jars are then sealed (just like Kilner jars) placed in a stérilisateur, covered with water and then brought to the boil and simmered for a long time to sterilise the jars and cook the apricots. The temperature control and the timing is dictated by the type of fruit or vegetable.
