"FOOD PRESERVATION SITES"

[Hattie the Hen]

Hi there

I have been noticing that many of us are looking for information on Food Preservation of one kind or another so I thought it might be useful to have it in one place so people don't have to search forever.

I am only going to list reliable sites here & ask you to do the same as this will be used by people who are seriously concerned that they could kill their families if the process goes wrong!

To kick off :-

I have started my own canning binder with this site:

www.ces.purdue.edu/extmedia/food_preservation_color_pubs.pdf

It has quite a few links to preservation handouts that you can print out :tools

Hi Augustmomx2

Thanks for adding that site -- that's just what we need -- especially as we have to do these processes safely!

This looks like a good idea if you live in this state (Georgia) but want to study the subject at home: I wish we had this facility in the UK!
