RE: An Introduction to Food Preservation Methods: This Key Element of Self-Sufficiency Can Prepare You for the Unexpected
These are all great ways to keep food way past their harvest! I'm a big fan, too, of growing crops that don't take any special effort to store - like onions, winter squash, potatoes, and cabbage. I don't care for canned vegetables, except tomatoes. But so many vegetables (and fruits) are great when they are dehydrated and can last for years. And freezing is so, so easy. Fermentation can seem so 'out of control' to some folks, but it's an amazing process that produces some great flavors. Here's to everyone having surplus to store - and share!
