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.
