Not as helpful as I'd hoped
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a good cookbook and offers some good canning recipes. However, many of the sugar substitutes that are used are not easily available (at the grocery store) and must be purchased through a health food store. I gave it four stars because it gives a lot of ideas that can be built upon to create your own sugarless recipe, and sugarless sweeteners that hold up under heat CAN be substituted in some cases. I'm sorry it is out of print, because it is helpful. Well worth purchasing a used copy if you can find one! If not, the Ball books Ball Blue Book of Preserving and Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving both contain excellent resources as well! I have both in my library and have enjoyed recipes from both! *** Much later post - The FDA has recently approved Stevia (the sweetener used in this text) as a sweetener, and it is NOW available at the grocery store along with the artificial sweeteners. Since Stevia can be heated safely without a change in taste, it is the sweetener of choice for the author. I DO recommend that you do some "taste-testing" before you invest in the recipes, since stevia is tasted by some as "bitter."
Canning for health

Excellent book; although, I would have liked to see more Splenda used as a sugar substitute.
What a Find!

As the wife of a diabetic with a sweet tooth, this book was a wonderful find and is a treasure! The recipes are easy, ingedients are usually ones you have on hand and the results are wonderful. Ball Co. makes a no sugar pectin which is a low methoxy pectin this book refers to quite a bit. It is easy to use in these recipes. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is diabetic or just likes the natural flavor of fruits and vegetables rather than the sugary recipes in regular cookbooks.
Fantastic and useful book for diabetic cooking.

thankyou so much for this terrific book. All sorts of information for diabetic safe canning, and exchange information. It is wonderful.We now know how to preserve our harvest since our 5 year old grandson just got diabetes.
