Default Canning Caponata in Boiling Water Bath

Just got done making giant batch of caponata, Rachel Ray's recipe. I
get hungry for the stuff. Wanted to cut down on freezer fillers. So
the question - has anybody canned caponata? Did a google search & also
Small Batch Preserving, found two *similar* recipes and will email the
Univ of Ga for their input. I tested my batch with scientific grade pH
test strips. Unblendered was 4.0 and blendered (!?) was 3.0. This
seems to be on the safe side for high acid foods safe for BWB. But this
food is small chunks with olives (with red wine, lots of salt), celery &
raisins & eggplant, so some of the stuff is very low acid. Thoughts?
Add spoonful of lemonjuice to each jar like tomate sauce? Break out &
buy a decent pressure canner?
