  • A good book to start you off in canning.

    The book does a very good work explaining how to get into canning and has a substantial number of quality canning recipes. There are a number of mouth wateringly good photographs of some of the recipes. I only wish I had bought it in hard cover instead of paperback.

  • Best & Most Reliable Canning Book

    I have an older version of this book and it was my canning bible. Ordered this book because it has up-to-date processing instructions. It has a great variety of canning recipes which are easy to follow. You cannot go wrong with this book from a trusted name in canning!

  • MOST USEFUL COOKBOOK YOU'LL OWN.

    I RECIEVED MY "BALL HOME PRESERVING BOOK" LAST WEEK AND HAVE LOVED AND I MEAN LOVED EVERY RECIPE SO FAR. IVE FOUND ANSWERS TO EVERY QUESTION IVE HAD. ITS WELL COMPILED AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND. THIS IS GREAT FOR BEGINNER AS WELL AS SEASONED CANNERS. MY CREATIVITY HAS BEEN IGNITED AND IM HAVING A BLAST CREATING MY OWN FLAVOR PROFILES AND RECIPES. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE EVEN THINKING ABOUT HOME PRESERVING. IN AN UNCERTAIN ECONOMY IT JUST MAKES SENSE TO HAVE A STORE OF FOOD FOR YOUR FAMILY AND EVERYONE WILL ENJOY GETTING INVOLVED. CANNING IS A FUN FAMILY ACTIVITY AND TEACHES SELF RELIANCE. BUY IT AND TRY IT OR EVEN CHECK YOUR LIBRARY ALTHOUGH YOU'LL WANT ONE OF YOUR OWN AND HAVE A GREAT TIME AS YOU ARE SAVING MONEY. SINCERELY SUSAN

  • Buy it, No regrets

    This book contains way more than described. It contains recipes for things I have never heard of. Well worth what I spent and since my copy was used it had a very special note in it from the previous owner. I will never run out of canning ideas.

  • Good value

    Very happy with the book, I’m a beginner canner & wanted a good reference book. But not at the price some people are trying to get for one. This book was at a fair price for a new looking book, I’m sure it won’t stay looking so nice! Shipped quickly & packaged nicely.
