Canning and Food Preservation Cookbook: 101 Best Home Canning and Preserving Recipes

When your garden flourishes with abundant produce, what should you do with all the vegetables and fruits? You can consume and give away only so much. Don't have friends and neighbors avoiding you because you keep presenting them with sacks full of cucumbers and green beans. Now that the garden is producing wonderful vegetables & fruits, let's talk about canning & preserving the produce. Home canning, preserving, freezing, and dehydrating are great ways to enjoy the "fruit's of your labor" long after the growing season. Along with a sense of accomplishment, and a source of pride, home canning lets you control the ingredients and quality of the foods you eat. I grew up watching my Momma and Granny put up the products of their gardens every year. If you have always wanted to put up those gleaming jars of fruits and vegetables that used to line Momma and Granny's pantry shelves, here is a word of encouragement - you can do it! Everybody loves fruit – those delicious, fleshy and flavorful bounty from trees. Fruits are not only a delight to eat, they are also a sight to behold. Imagine a basketful of crisp red apples, fragrant oranges, luscious plums and bright figs and dates. No wonder than that it most of us cannot stand to see all these treats from nature go to waste, especially during harvest season when supply is overflowing. Thank God then, for canning and preserving recipes. Our mothers and grandmothers, and generation of homemakers before them had turned to preserving fruits in order to prolong their shelf-life and save them from useless rotting. By developing canning and preserving recipes, the problem of storing fruits was resolved, even enabling one to enjoy them even if they are not in season. Not only fruits but some vegetables and even meat are also preserved for the same practical reasons. Get this book now!
