Book Description

May 19, 2008
A classic guide to preserving the harvest, Jellies, Jams, & Chutneys is divided into ten chapters. Nine of the chapters cover a wide range of recipes as well as providing detailed information on selecting and making the best use of ingredients. At the front of the book, illustrated sections cover equipment and cooking techniques in detail.

Key techniques such as soil testing and potting safely are explained so clearly that everyone will feel confident. The reader is guided through the year season by season-at any time, there are delicious preserves, sweet or savory, that can be made. Jams, jellies, chutneys, relishes, pickles, cordials, syrups, vinegars, and ketchups are all covered.

Food lovers will adore creating something amazing out of humble (and exotic) fruit and vegetables. Gardeners will love gathering their produce and turning a glut into a stockpile. Stressed-out executives everywhere will relish the satisfaction of slowing down long enough to make delicious chutneys and jams.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this little book, April 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jellies, Jams & Chutneys (Hardcover)
The author is English, so you will find lots of unusual jam and chutney recipes here that you wouldn't see in an American cookbook. The one drawback is that the canning techniques used are foreign to most Americans, and not USDA compliant, but I say just use the recipe and can using the instructions on the USDA website if you are concerned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic and interesting recipes, October 21, 2010

This review is from: Jellies, Jams & Chutneys (Hardcover)
I actually bought this book in Virginia at the Monticello gift shop. I have tried over half of the recipes so far, and I have loved every one of them..I have even used the guidelines the author sets down to create new jams..like a pineapple mango cardamom jam (delicious!!). I was looking for something that took my preserving to another level...and challenged me. I also like that she uses whole spices and grinds them in a coffee mill...the flavor this imparts is wonderful.

One note, although the author mentions water bath canning, there are very few directions on the actual recipes for doing so. I referenced my Ball canning book and found a similar recipe to use the canning times for and everything worked fine. Many of her recipes are to be refrigerated, but that doesn't mean they cannot be canned!

This book is a great addition because it has unique recipes, like plum cinnamon jam! (Very good, btw) Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great cookbook!, December 3, 2008
This review is from: Jellies, Jams & Chutneys (Hardcover)
We made several of the recipes for Thanksgiving and found them delicious! All our guests loved the items we made. We were trying to spice up our meal with something that our guests might not have had previously. We found the recipes easy to follow and straighforward. I'm personally not a great chef, but I can follow directions. I was impressed with our end results! I have a newfound respect for Jams and Chutneys. Don
