Preserved Perfection

This a handy index for best preservation methods for your given goods.

Listed and linked are the foods that fill our needs through the cold months, foods we’ve been able to grow or gather as a family that were left over.

Some foods I had thought to can initially are better dried ~ I found this with apricots for sure.  Others can be chopped and frozen with much less time spent processing ~ peaches come to mind.  While many on this list are canned for best preservation ~ berries and tomatoes for instance.

The list is a guide to help reduce work time and waste.  Recipe and article pages are linked to the list that involve preserving by boiling water canner or drying and freezing methods.  Some of the recipes are already published in articles within the site, with more links to come.
