In this classic work, born of the back-to-the-land movement, Jean
Anderson teaches you how to enjoy the bounty of your own garden,
farmer's markets, and roadside stands--all year round. With
Anderson at your side, you'll learn which fruits and vegetables are
best for canning, freezing, and pickling and, along the way, learn
how to insure food safety. Best of all, you'll find you're having
fun, saving money, and eating well.
Jean Anderson's Preserving
Guide not only provides easy-to-follow directions for
preserving whatever you grow but also dishes up more than 100
original recipes--for such tried-and-true classics as piccalilli
and corn relish and more adventurous fare like caponata, frozen
pasta sauce, and carrot marmalade. This step-by-step guidebook
brings the expertise of a hands-on master to a whole new
do-it-yourself generation of gardeners, cooks, and food lovers.
