4.0 out of 5 stars Canning Recipes, June 17, 2009
This review is from: Well Preserved: Third Edition: Small Batch Preserving for the New Cook (Paperback)
This book is great for the person who wants to can five to six batches of jam. The recipes are very easy to follow, and there are lots of different canning recipe on the book unlike some canning books which are a few canning recipes and lots of recipes on how to use you finished product.

This review is from: Well Preserved: Third Edition: Small Batch Preserving for the New Cook (Paperback)
Very well laid out, with recipes for less common canned items (like zucchini)and creative suggestions for how to use things like chutney and fruit butters in recipes this book is well worth the investment! Clean and colorful, it's very user friendly as well.
