The must-have reference guide to all the methods used for preserving every type of food-from canning vegetables to making fruit wines to curing meat-with more than 250 recipes and creative zero-waste options for using all the parts that are normally discarded.

Essential Food Preserving is organized by type of food, with multiple preservation methods for each one, so you can preserve the bounty in a variety of ways, including:

- Canning

- Fermenting

- Brewing beer, wine, and vinegar

- Pickling

- Making jams and jellies

- Drying

- Smoking

- Cold storage

Food-preserving expert Julia Skinner focuses on minimizing waste; every part is used, including the byproducts of processes. Just as important as her comprehensive approach is Julia's expert curation of the topic and creative recipes that go beyond the basics, accompanied by clear step-by-step instructions and original photography.
