From the Time your pressure cooker weight starts hissing and rocking slow, cooking time is 90 to100 minutes. I cut up fish into 1ins pieces raw and stuff sterilized 12oz Mason jars full. I like to cut out the dark meat and cook that separate in a pan with butter lemon and hot sauce and eat right away if fresh.
Getting back to canning. I first put salt 1/2 teasp jalape?o skin 1 Tbs olive oil, garlic clove and stuff raw fish yellowtail or yellow fin pretty much taste the same canned
Packed in jars add drinking water to the bottom of the threads of Mason jar. Then I take a knife 🔪 and get all the air bubbles out of jars and cut through the fish at the same time because I mash it up anyway but never fill more water than to bottom of threads. Put bands on jars finger tight don't over tighten important. I use a 7qt presto pressure cooker it holds 7 small mouth 12oz jars
Fill add hot water 3/4 full close and cook.
