Luisa Florence will teach you how to have an essential pantry with the 200 preserves that cannot be missing in your wardrobes. It is useless to have 600 recipes: they are like 30 washing machine programs, which you will never use. And then you will have an appetizing chapter with 20 traditional mouth-watering Italian preserves.
With this book, you will have an indispensable selection, a base from which to start wandering with other variations and indulging in your imagination.
Perhaps, the most important reason to can and maintain food yourself is that you know the ingredients that go into your food. Today very frequently and for different causes, meats and vegetables are being recalled. We, as customers, do not know which pesticides have been used on the goods we buy. Nor do we know how and where they manufactured many of the items we purchase at the grocery store.
Learning to can and preserve fruits and vegetables that we grow in our home gardens or buy on a local farmer's market where you can ask the farmer questions about how he grew his crops will help ensure our health and that of our family.
Once you know the canning and food storage cycle, healthy and tasteful foods will fill your dinner table, and you can pass on your new-found knowledge to your kids, grandchildren, and friends.
Moreover, canning and preserving is a cost-effective way of living, avoiding wasting food, or buying expensive, already canned products.
