#2 (2 Prizes) The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Preserving Food
$18.95 By Ph.D., Karen K. Brees
American families throw out about 14 percent of their food — around $590 worth per year — according to a study from the University of Arizona. Preventing that waste is what home food preservation is all about.

From patio and container gardening to edible landscaping, gardening is America’s #1 hobby, with an estimated nearly 43 million of us digging in the dirt.
Food contamination scandals, the rising cost of food, organic eating, better nutrition, bulk discounts at big box retailers – all these factors contribute to the upsurge in interest in preserving food. While there are many books on canning, freezing and pickling foods – few are as comprehensive as The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Preserving Food by Master Food Preserver Karen Brees. Relying on over 40 years of expertise in preserving food, Brees shows readers how easy and beneficial food preservation can be.
