I had never even imagined preserved lemons before, but I could not resist the picture in this book. With some lemons from a neighbor's tree, I made them. The pictures in this book are exquisite and inspiring. What I like best, however, is that the author has included recipes in which you can use your preserves. Too many books out there have recipes for the preserves only and leave you wondering how to use them if you never have before. This book is a must have for the beginning and the serious canner.

This book made me want to run to the kitchen to start preparing fun jams, deserts, and more. The pictures are beautiful and perfectly support the text and recipes. This is the book to get if you're interested in getting excited about preserves.

I have had this book since the early 90's - I was living in England at the time of purchase. Photographs are wonderful.
I am a cook and I love to make Chutneys and preserves. The recipes are wonderful and very reliable.
I have given many copies of "Perfect Preserves" as gifts.

The pictures in this book alone, are worth the price. I haven't had time to try the recipes yet, but will as the garden progresses. A joyful, well written, fun book to add to your collection. Jerry
