Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Jarden Home Brands 21400 Ball Blue Book
Customer Review: The Bible of Canning!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Ball Blue Book of Canning is largely regarded as the "bible" of canning among home canners.
Just getting started in home canning, I bought the book on it's reputation among other canners. It contains good "how to" info to help you understand canning and the processes involved and has several recipes for canning a variety of food items. It also covers both methods of canning - pressure canning and water bath canning and which is appropriate for what food items.
Customer Review: Printing of Ball Blue Book
Summary: 1 Stars
I am very dissapointed in the new Ball Blue Book. I have many of the older version so I had to buy this newer one as well. The titles of the recipes are so faint I have to use a magnifying glass in order to see them. I go back to the older version to use simply because I can't see the titles from the new Ball Blue Book. I am very sorry to see this wonderful book treated this way. I still use the Ball Blue Books for my canning and preserving but just not this newer version.Customer Review: Great Canning Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great canning book for first time canners! It is well-written out and the illustrations are an added bonus. This book makes it very easy to understand what you need to do in a clear step-by-step process. I am not overly fond of their recipes, but since I bought it to learn how to can, not for the recipes, I am well pleased with this book. I highly recommend it!Customer Review: Great resource for canning
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used a few other canning books, but this one gets top marks for its collection of both simple, everyday recipes and unique blends (like Carrot-Orange-Pineapple Chutney). Great pictures and serving suggestions are included, along with clear and helpful directions. I just wish it were waterproof, as it gets splashed quite a bit.Customer Review: A lot packed into a skinny book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm impressed with the amount of information in such a tiny package! I refer to this book 1st when considering my canning options. Sometimes it doesn't have the recipe I need, but most times it does. I'm very happy to own this book. It even has a section on dehydrating & freezing! This is probably worth more than it's price!
