Preserving: Putting Up the Season's Bounty

This helped me to learn what to do with all my extra produce. Beautiful and happy preserving

A small book but the recipes are good and the directions easy to follow. The front of the book explains canning and the different types.

This book is a great help. Good recipes,too. Excepsional even for the first time home canners

This book had the information I needed to make jam without powdered pectin. This was very exciting. I plan on using other recipes.

This book has basic canning recipes for jams, jellies, fruits, and pickled foods, and a few odd recipes like kimche and sauerkraut. But if you are an experienced canner, I don't think you'll find anything you can use in this book. Also, if you are a beginner, I would go with the Blue Ribbon Country Canning book instead; it has alot more recipes.

a lot of useful information.a few quibbleswhat not to freeze - milk? aah, excuse me, milk freezes great!bread freezes great. and so do berries.it's the defrosting that is tricky, ok.

Marginally uselful book, overall. Sure, you get a basic overview of various preservation methods. One would expect some detail about ingredient selection, flavoring options, and so on. However, there's just the bare minimum amount of information necessary to describe the process and equipment, and nothing further. You'd be better served searching for canning and preservation articles on the internet. You do, however, get some recipes which are pretty straightforward and more useful than the rest of the text.

Very good book, interesting!
