Once considered a lost art, canning is experiencing a revival. Well Preserved: Small Batch Preserving for the New Cook makes canning accessible-all you need is a little time, a little know-how and some beautiful fresh produce to enjoy homemade jams, pickles, relishes and chutneys all year round. It's healthier, too: homemade preserves generally have a lower salt and sugar content than those found at the grocery store. Well Preserved covers everything you need to know about equipment, selecting and preparing produce, food safety, storage and incorporating your preserves into meals. Create small, manageable yields of sweet preserves (jams, jellies, marmalades, conserves and fruit sauces), savory condiments (pickles, relishes, chutneys and ketchups) and infused vinegars with over 150 easy-to-follow recipes.
