Better Homes & Gardens: Preserving Issue

Get ready—local gardens and farmers markets are about to be bursting at the seams with sun-ripened fruits and veggies. But now what? Buy (or harvest) as much as you can and we’ll take care of the rest. This issue of Preserving magazine takes the guesswork out of cooking with summer’s amazing bounty. Not only do we share our most-loved ways to bring favorites like zucchini, tomatoes, corn, and beans to the table TONIGHT, but we also feature the easiest and most effective ways to put up your produce for the fall and winter months. This includes simple, streamlined, small-batch recipes for canning (these are guaranteed to take only an hour or two), a full guide plus recipes on freezing and dehydrating, plus good-for-you probiotic-packed fermenting you can do at home. The only hard part is figuring out where to start.
