This book is my reference for preserving and canning food。 Techniques a really well explained and the recipes are delicious！ Highly recommend the peach and tomato ketchup and the rhubarb and apple chutney！

If you can only afford one book about how to can The bounty of your garden or farm， this is it。 This book has something for almost everyone from newbies to those who have been canning for decades， from simple tastes to things that are pretty classy。 I have used various additions of this book since high school in the 80s。 It only occurred to me to put it on my bookshelves here today when I was looking up a recipe。

Nice book recipes。 Although as a European we dont have the same canning restrictions pushed on us so can meats and such via waterbath which this reccomended only pressure canning for。

This is my “go to” book for jams and jellies， preserves and conserves。 I’ve tried many of the wine and herb jellies， a few of the jams and marmalades。 Lots of tomato recipes which works for me as I had loads of tomatoes this year。 Sometimes I change up the fruit or vegetable if I can’t find exactly what I’m looking for。The best part of this book is that it is mostly small batches like six or eight jars， which works perfectly for me。 I like to make the jellies in smaller jars for giveaways at Chr This is my “go to” book for jams and jellies， preserves and conserves。 I’ve tried many of the wine and herb jellies， a few of the jams and marmalades。 Lots of tomato recipes which works for me as I had loads of tomatoes this year。 Sometimes I change up the fruit or vegetable if I can’t find exactly what I’m looking for。The best part of this book is that it is mostly small batches like six or eight jars， which works perfectly for me。 I like to make the jellies in smaller jars for giveaways at Christmas or when visiting friends for cocktails （remember when we used to do that。。。 before COVID-19！ Lol）。 Something for every flavour and every meal plan。 Great fun to experiment and try something beyond your standard chili sauce！Try the inferno wine jelly， or bruschetta-in-a-jar， or the gingered zucchini marmalade！ Yum！！ 。。。more

Some of the fruit and tomato choices sound intriguing， but there was very little in this book I would actually want to make。 Maybe canning is not going to be something for me？

A favourite reference of mine for 10 years。 Although I am using Pomona’s pectin for most of my jams now， I still use this book constantly。 It has a great section on canning tomatoes， with many variations。

I was surprised to see that I never logged this book considering how many times I've read it， used it， tabbed favorite recipes with stickies， and bookmarked pages/recipes with whatever piece of paper was handy at the time。 And G - A - S - P， I've even written in it notes on what I do and don't like about the recipe; what worked。。。。what didn't。Although I have several canning and preserving cookbooks， this is my go-to book for several tried-and-true recipes。 It's also the first book I thumb throug I was surprised to see that I never logged this book considering how many times I've read it， used it， tabbed favorite recipes with stickies， and bookmarked pages/recipes with whatever piece of paper was handy at the time。 And G - A - S - P， I've even written in it notes on what I do and don't like about the recipe; what worked。。。。what didn't。Although I have several canning and preserving cookbooks， this is my go-to book for several tried-and-true recipes。 It's also the first book I thumb through when I'm looking for something new to put-up。 The recipes are laid out clearly， with most being a single page。 Each one has a helpful "tip" section。 Plenty of instructions， guides， glossaries， and how-to's for a beginner to get started。 Even an experienced "canner" will appreciate the problem solving section！ 。。。more

Best canning and preserving book ever！ The harissa sauce recipe is outstanding！ As is the spicy Thai dipping sauce。 This is not just a jelly and jam book！

This is a really useful guide。 If you're new to canning， I'd recommend the Ball Blue Book to begin with， as it's more beginner-friendly。 Then head immediately over to this book。 I knocked a star off due to the layout。 I think it's more useful to have the "art and science" part of canning at the beginning， not banished all the way back to page 409。 It's probably better to get a refresher on how to can safely before getting all starry-eyed over the recipes。 There's a nice selection of canning reci This is a really useful guide。 If you're new to canning， I'd recommend the Ball Blue Book to begin with， as it's more beginner-friendly。 Then head immediately over to this book。 I knocked a star off due to the layout。 I think it's more useful to have the "art and science" part of canning at the beginning， not banished all the way back to page 409。 It's probably better to get a refresher on how to can safely before getting all starry-eyed over the recipes。 There's a nice selection of canning recipes， and each themed section ends with a Problem Solver section （i。e。 "Why are my pickles spotted and cloudy？"）。 The occasional pics of completed recipes are nice， as is the glossary in the back。Overall， this is a good book。 However， it's more for someone who has canned previously and is looking to up their canning game， rather than for the newbie canner。 。。。more
