 Putting It Up With Honey April 23, 2010

A great little book loaded with clear, concise information about canning,jams/preserves, pickling and drying fruits and veggies using honey instead of sugar. Covers everything from equipment and conversions, to amounts of food needed for a typical family of six. Best of all, the author does not assume the reader has prior knowledge of the process and explains each step.

We're on the Specific Crabohydrate Diet in our household. It's a great diet for those with Crohn's disease and autism. Of the 207 recipes in this book, I was thrilled that about 90 percent were SCD legal. There's so much in here: Jams, Jellies, fruit butters, marmalades, pickled everything, tomato paste, tomato sauce, ketchup, chutneys, relishes and other canned and dried foods. I would highly recomment this book to anyone on a real food diet.

I am so happy with this book! I needed something that didn't include sugar in everything, honey being okay. Well, this book covers the sugar problem like a charm & even has jam type recipes with no pectin! Simply perfect for the SCDiet! We do a lot of canning & since having to go on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, I didn't know what to do! I can't even eat my canned goods. Now I can preserve safely, enjoying my hard work! There are many variations depending on your needs. The variety of recipes is great. This book is going to get A LOT of use! This will easily become my number one canning book!

This book is awesome. I got this book after someone told me she used honey to can peaches. I think this book is going to be a great asset to my collection. I love canning and always trying to find better ways to can with less sugar. This book is it many more natural ways to can. It has everything in it... I think you will love it too...

We keep bees, so honey is something we have as local produce. For canning we use the bible - the Ball Blue Book. I was disappointed to see that most recipes for putting up fruit require sugar and wanted to substitute honey. Someone on a forum recommended this title. I was not disappointed. The first recipe we tried was minted pears. A neighbor brought over six sacks of pears and we set about using these recipes. I still think it's good to have the Ball Blue Book just to refer to, but this book was worth the price. Fruits, preserves, butters and conserves are the food types that one would expect with sweeteners. Surprisingly, the book also addresses pickling and dehydrating.
If you have access to honey or would prefer finding an alternative to sugar, this book is worth checking out.
