Book Reviews of Ball Blue Book Guide to Preserving

Book Review: best book on food preservation
Summary: 4 Stars

This book keeps getting better and better with each new addition. I believe my aunt used it in Vermont in the 40's. The addition of new technology for methods such as dehydration, is most welcome The recipes show us why we want to preserve all this food. I would have given the higheat rating but I am always expecting something new to come along and give us new incentives.

Book Review: Great information!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the first year I have done any canning and I wanted a book to describe the how to and some tasty recipies. This book gave me all the information I needed. We now have some tasty pickles, zucchini pickles, apple butter, and apple preserves!!!

I also like it because it also covers freezing to preserve.

Overall a great basics canning book!

Book Review: Better than ever
Summary: 5 Stars

I've used an old edition of the Blue Book for Canning for about 25 years and have found it very useful, this new edition is more colorful and beautiful, but still contains the basic information for canning and various other kinds of food preservation, with some great recipes for pickles, relishes, jams, etc. I consider it one of my most necessary kitchen supplies!

Book Review: The bible of canning
Summary: 5 Stars

I've used this book mainly for freezing foodstuffs through the years and have made some of the jam and fruit butter recipes. As others have written, the book contains well written and documented instructions. The pages literally lead the reader and hopefully cook on how to can or freeze almost anything.

Highly recommend purchasing and using this book.

Book Review: Ball Blue Book
Summary: 5 Stars

I used several preserving recipes from this book and was very impressed with the results. My preserving experience was very limited before I purchased this book and supplies. I had no trouble following the instructions and my jams, jellies and pickled items tasted delicious. Friends and family could not tell I had not been doing this type of thing for years.
