Description

Fruit is by its nature ephemeral, making preserving it something of a necessity. Most often this leads to jams and jellies, but what about the less expected outcomes of fruit preserving, ones that create a dynamic interplay of sweet and spicy, or sweet or bright? Preserved: Fruit offers a new template for fruit preserving with recipes for the Mexican chile sauce Chamoy, to drape over ripe mangoes; pickled green strawberries adding a pop of bright acidity to cheese plates; and a pomegranate molasses to drizzle over grilled meats. For those inclined towards uncomplicated sweetness, there is the classic brandy soaked Tutti Frutti to spoon over ice cream (or bake into a cake), and the delicately fragranced cherry and rose petal jam.

Packed with history, kitchen inspiration, and unabashedly delicious recipes--all gorgeously photographed--Preserved: Fruit is your guide to new culinary adventures.

Reviews

"Each installment of "Preserved" presents recipes from around the world -- some super-simple, others dauntingly complex -- with context on their provenance, cultural significance and the ways they moved around the globe." -- FoodPrint
"Food preservation was once a necessity for survival. Now, cooks pursue it for other reasons, such as health, culinary enjoyment, reducing household waste, saving the season and the simple act of making and sharing. Some of the processes involved are quick, others slow. The books strike a balance between both." --National Post Canada
"These books offer well-researched methods to preserve abundance in enchanting ways. The books are a feast in more ways than one--the recipes begin with rich headnotes that give the reader historical and cultural context to the preserved food." --Kirsten K. Shockey, author of Fermented Vegetables and co-founder of The Fermentation School

"This series is a treasure that will inspire this generation of cooks looking to preserve fresh ingredients in ways that are delicious, timeless, and fun." --Kirsten K. Shockey, author of the bestselling Fermented Vegetables
