Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Pickled ramps

    • louie734 on January 07, 2014

      These were amazing (but stinky! - enjoy with someone you love).

  • Pickled green cherry tomatoes

    • louie734 on November 02, 2014

      Made these as a refrigerator pickle, as I didn't have the right amount of jars and lids to process as instructed. After about 4 weeks in the fridge, we gave them a try. POW! Smacks you with a pop of tart juicy pickle. Great contrast to crunchy pickles as part of a cheese plate. They do look alarming, though - like a jar of green eyeballs. Appropriate for Halloween, which works out to be about a month after taking down the garden.

  • Soy garlic cherry tomatoes

  • Canned tomatoes

    • louie734 on January 07, 2014

      Easy method that worked perfectly for us. Wishing we had more!

  • Mom's tomato sauce

    • louie734 on January 07, 2014

      Loved the fennel in this recipe (we didn't have peppers so skipped them).

  • Carrot habanero hot sauce

    • louie734 on January 07, 2014

      Made 2 batches and gave as gifts, keeping lots for ourselves. Gorgeous color. We didn't strain it - used the immersion blender. Nice, silky, vinegary, and not too hot. Great on eggs, beans, swirled into soup, and in the grilled cheese with melty white cheese on the next page.

  • Grilled cheese sandwich with carrot habanero hot sauce

    • louie734 on January 07, 2014

      YES to this sandwich. Any white cheese will do. Muenster is awesome.

Preservative is undergoing a renaissance. "Tart & Sweet" instructs a new generation of preservers on the fundamentals of small-batch preserving and provides 101 delicious recipes, including those for jams, compotes, sauces, salsas, and pickled vegetables, as well as ones that showcase these delicious preserved foods, from appetizers to cocktails. One of the biggest misconceptions about preserving is that it's overly complicated. The truth is, it's incredibly simple. Geary and Knadler walk the novice preserver step-by-step through the complete process, from choosing the right gear and learning about acid level (pH) to mastering the nuances of 'head space', proper sealing, storing - and, finally, devouring. Whether it's making pickles from green market cucumbers or tomato sauce from a homegrown harvest, readers will find that preserving their food is a delicious way to eat a little bit closer to the land. Equally appealing to longtime pros and budding enthusiasts, "Tart & Sweet" is destined to become a canning classic.
