My garden has been producing fruit and vegetables more this year than it has in years past. I decided to bottle as much as I could and wanted to be sure I was doing things correctly. I purchased this book and it was delivered within the time frame it promised. The book provided me the confidence to continue on, which was what I was wanting to hear.

This book teaches on all levels of food preservation and is very clear on the toxic aspects of home canning if these rules are not followed. This 2nd edition is published in 1999, after USDA testing in 1987 about doubled the processing times for tomatoes. This book contains a good sampling of all kinds of food preservation recipes. I'm very happy to be able to add this to my library.

I did find some loss recipes that I used over 40 years ago. My family missed eating them and they were delighted when I sent them some of the canned food. I discovered that I will need to can more because what I sent didn't last them two weeks. I sent them all 2 pints of corn relish. Most of 42 pints I canned a month ago is gone.

Simply type USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning in any search engine and you will be taken to several pages offering .pdf vesions of the 1st edition. I can't imagine too many things are different. It even has cups and tsp/tbs measurements to make one quart jar at a time. Worth checking out before you spend money on the book.
