The Jam Maker's Garden: Grow Your Own Seasonal Preserves
Sobre aquest llibre
Grow your own vegetables, fruit, herbs, and flowers—and preserve the best homegrown ingredients in jams, chutneys, cordials, and sauces for months and even years to come!
From planning the jam-maker’s garden to selecting the best varieties to grow; from sowing and planting to harvesting and foraging, to using tried and tested cooking methods to preserve the best flavor and quality, this book covers it all—and also includes fifty recipes for tasty jams, chutneys, and preserves that you’ll savor.
“Farrell isn’t just a jam expert—she deftly covers curds, pickles, chutneys, ketchups and plenty more.” —Kitchen Garden magazine
“One of the ever-increasing breed of gardener cooks, [Holly Farrell] is as much at home in the kitchen as in the garden. Her writing is simple yet enthusiastic: her explanations are clear and her eagerness is infectious. The photographs, by the accomplished Jason Ingram, are mouth-wateringly appealing.” —Sunday Times Ireland
