Home and Farm Food PreservationPaperback, 31 October 2012

This vintage volume contains a comprehensive guide to food preservation, with information on preserving fruit, meat, poultry, vegetables, and more. Written in clear, plain language and full of handy tips and simple instructions, this volume constitutes a fantastic resource for those with an interest in food preservation, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Why Food Spoils", "Ways of Preventing Spoiling", "Canning Fruits", "Canning Vegetables", "Canning Meats", "Storage and Spoiling of Canned Foods", "Fruit Juices", "Fruit and Other Sirups", "Jellies and Marmalades", Fruit Jams, Butters, and Pastes", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on preserving food.
