5 out of 5 stars Very Informative   December 29, 2008

This was my first year growing my own garden, so I purchased this book to guide me in all things preserving. I really used the heck out of it. I was able to learn everything I needed to freeze, can, jam, and dry a large variety of fruits and veggies. The book is laid out in a very clear, easy to find reference style, which made it easy for me to quickly flip through to what I needed at that moment.


5 out of 5 stars Helpful, Full of Recipes   December 24, 2008
I grew up with referring to a book that is now out of print. When I began to look for a new book to relearn how to can and preserve foods I turned to this book. This book is complete and easy to understand. It presents a variety of methods of preserving foods- as the title implies. It covers freezing, canning, drying, etc. The directions are clear and easy to follow. The recipes use common ingredients.

Well worth the money.
enjoy.

This book is excellent. Instead of just a book of recipes, although it does have them, it has practical how-to instruction on canning, freezing, drying and more. It also goes beyond the how-to and gives you the why. It is easier to improvise and change things if you know the why and not just the how...this book does that.

I highly recommend it.

I am a newbie when it comes to preserving foods. I have read this book cover to cover and have learned so much about canning, freezing, dehydrating, and preserving all types of fruits, veggies and herbs. The step-by-step instructions for all of the methods is truly a valuable asset for this book. Now I can't wait for my garden to start producing so I can get working on the preserving process. I highly recommend this book to beginners, like me. This book also has some pretty interesting recipes that I can't wait to try.
