Pressure Canning for Beginners and Beyond: Safe, Easy Recipes for Preserving Tomatoes, Vegetables, Beans and Meat

Saw this book recommended by a YouTube influencer. The book is awesome. I am new to canning and wanted some good recipes besides the old standbys and this book delivers. Highly recommend.

Good amount of information and recipes. Nice pictures recipes seem simple enough for anyone to follow. Gave me great new canning ideas of things I never thought about canning.

It’s hard to find a pressure canning book that uses USDA and NCHFP safe methods. Angie is a master food preserver and you can trust that these recipes meet all the guidelines. I’ve made a lot of the recipes and I’m very happy with how they turned out. Definitely recommend!

This is a great book for canning. There are so many tips and great recipes. I even gave a copy to my daughter, who recommended it to many of her friends. Now they are all canning, especially whole meals. Dinner has become a snap!

Good for beginners, also. Nice recipes.

I was completely new to canning when I bought this book plus two others, all highly rated with great reviews. I wanted material that thoroughly covered safety basics, general concepts, and some recipes for framework. Out of the three books I bought a few weeks ago this one is the one I've reached for nearly daily as I worked my way through canning green beans, carrots, then meats to include our homestead meat rabbits. I tend to cook out of an ingredient based pantry, as in I do not meal plan, but rather prefer to have quick ingredients that are mostly already cooked and ready to be thrown together at a moment's notice. Because of this approach I really found the basic directions at the beginning of each section in the book to be incredibly helpful. Ultimately when I have 20lbs of ground beef, several whole chickens, and half a dozen rabbits to preserve I really just need to know if I can cram it in the jars without cooking it first, how much space to leave before the lid goes on, and for how long that canner will keep me in the kitchen. Canning is a bit more involved than that, but you get the idea. The basics of each type of ingredient are thoroughly covered at the beginning of each section in the book with recipes to follow. There's also just enough picture content for us visual learners. I haven't had a chance to delve into the recipes just yet but will soon. Overall I feel this book truly does cover everything for beginners and experts alike, with information for single ingredient canning all the way to meals in a jar. It has served me well during my learning process so far and is one that I will likely continue to reference frequently as I grow this new skill.

I just received this collection of canning recipes and it is just the kick in the pants I need to restock my canning shelves! These are great recipes, with clear directions and easy to accomplish batch sizes..... and bonus serving/utilization instructions for the day you grab the filled jar off the shelf to use it. Angi covers basic canning instructions in case her reader is new to the process. I am already making my shopping list. I am very glad I got this book!

Absolute must have for canning!
