Customer Reviews
Krazyquilts
Krazyquilts you clearly did not read the description of the product which states that the authors and creators were from early 1900s, get on with the boohoo and whining and recheck before making a fool of yourself.
Does not meet current canning requirements!
Do not buy this book if you are intending to actually use the recipes for canning! This is apparently a very old edition and **the recipes do not meet current canning requirements** (ex., calls for butter and flour in a pressure-canned recipe) and are therefore not safe to use.
Furthermore, nowhere in the description does it state that this is an old edition. I would not have purchased this book if I had known that I wouldn't be able to use the recipes. Absolutely a waste of $3.99 and I wish I could get my money back.
