Andrea Chesman shows you how to bridge the gap between field and table, covering everything from curing meats and making sausage to canning fruits and vegetables, milling flour, working with sourdough, baking no-knead breads, making braises and stews that can be adapted to different cuts of meat, rendering lard and tallow, pickling, making butter and cheese, making yogurt, blanching vegetables for the freezer, making jams and jellies, drying produce, and much more. You’ll learn all the techniques you need to get the most from homegrown foods, along with dozens of simple and delicious recipes, most of which can be adapted to use whatever you have available.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Also available in this series: \u003ci\u003eThe Backyard Homestead, The Backyard Homestead Book of Building Projects, The Backyard Homestead Seasonal Planner, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Backyard Homestead Guide to Raising Farm Animals.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e“A stunningly comprehensive guide to making the most out of every last homegrown and hand-raised edible morsel.”\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e— Marissa McLellan, author of \u003ci\u003eFood in Jars\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePreserving by the Pint\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e“Whether you grow, glean, or purchase local foods, they usually come to the kitchen with no instructions and in formidable quantities.
