Publisher Comments:

Yes, you CAN! More and more people have discovered what grandma always knew: canning and preserving supplies you with wholesome, tasty treats year round. And this Homemade Living guide provides all the practical, hold-your-hand basics along with plenty of step-by-step photos.

 

Learn about the necessary tools of the trade, crucial safety tips, and hot water bath processing and pressure canning. Discover the all-important science of salt and sugar, and how to select the best possible ingredients, favoring seasonal, organic, and local options.  Three topic-specific primers cover pickles, relishes and chutneys; jams, jellies, butters and curds; and whole fruits and veggies—and each offers at least two “Canning Classic” recipes with variation ideas.

This is a great new book on canning, that delivers classic recipes as well as new twists like kumquat 5-spice marmalade or blood orange and port sauce. Canning instructions are clear and well-written. Photos are mouth-watering! I highly recommend this book, you won't be disappointed!

lady english has a lovely way with words, the design is terribly cute, and her farmhouse lifestyle is very enviable- but also very do-able. she makes very clear the whats, hows and whys of canning, including jar selection, vegetable prep, issues about bacteria and pH and all sorts of important things you need to know before cutting up six pounds of berries or asparagus. this is a really comprehensive guide to canning, pickling, and ‘putting up’ all types of fruit and vegetables, with both basic and fancy recipes for jams, jellies, and curds.
