  • Recipes for the Preserving of Fruit, Vegetables, and Meat
    PRESERVING OF FRUIT, VEGETABLES AND MEAT E. WAGNER RECIPES FOR THE PRESERVING OF FRUIT, VEGETABLES, AND MEAT RECIPES FOR THE PRESERVING OF FRUIT VEGETABLES, AND MEAT E. WAG-NEE TECHNICAL MANAGER OF THE PRESERVING AND MARMALADE DEPARTMENTS OF THE TRACHENBERG SUGAR BOILING WORKS TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY CHAS. SALTER WITH FOURTEEN ILLUSTRATIONS LONDON SCOTT, GREENWOOD & SON 8 BROADWAY, LUDGATE HILL, E.G. CANADA : THE COPP CLARK CO. LTD., TORONTO UNITED STATES : D. VAN NOSTRAND CO., NEW YORK 1908 [The sole right of Translation into English rests with Scott, Greenwood <k Son] \ 3 ." PREFACE IT has been long the desire of the author to bring out a larger useful work on the preserving industry in its present state, but the continued introduction of improvements in the last few years prevented an exhaustive report being drawn up. At present, however, we may be said to have reached a certain degree of stability, at least so far as the important matter of stoppers and closing devices is concerned. The author has therefore, on the basis of his practical experience of over thirty years' duration, endeavoured in the present work to provide instruction for both the beginner and the expert. The points dealt with comprise the recipes and instructions for preserving, and the necessary utensils and machinery, the work being divided into three parts : the first dealing with the preserving of fruit, the second with that of vegetables, and the third with preserved meat. V 380653 vi PREFACE In all recipes the weights have been given in order to minimise the chance of error, and also to enable beginners to work according to instruc- tions.

  • Beverage Recipes Using California Native Plants
    Beverage Recipes Using California Native Plants Picking and Preparing Leaves, Flowers and Fruits Be certain that you use only plants/plant parts known to be edible. Also, gather from clean plants which have not been sprayed with pesticides or herbicides. Gather healthy leaves (usually younger leaves best). The leaves of some plants are best just prior to flowering. Wash carefully with water & discard old, unhealthy leaves. Gather fully open (mature) flowers at mid-day (when flavors are likely to be best. Wash carefully with water and remove unhealthy flowers, insects, etc. Pick ripe, unblemished fruits & berries. Wash thoroughly in water, discarding any old, damaged fruits. Gently blot dry. Slice larger fruits (strawberries; large rosehips) into thin slices; smaller fruits and berries can be dried whole. Remove stones/seeds from stone fruits. Basic Recipe: Hot Tea from Fresh Leaves or Flowers Chop prepared leaves and place 2 Tbsp in tea infuser or tea bag. Or place whole leaves in the teacup. Pour boiling hot water over tea and let it brew for 2-5 minutes. Sweeten with sugar or honey if desired. Enjoy! Basic Recipe: Drying Leaves for Tea Gather leaves and wash as for fresh leaves. Blot dry. Dry leaves on warm setting (105-110º F) in a food dehydrator (usually takes 1-3 hours, depending on water content of leaves). Or, spread leaves on a baking sheet and dry in a warm (120º F or ‘warm’ setting) oven (usually takes 1-2 hours). Or, dry on baking sheet or screen, covered with net or cheesecloth, in a warm dry place (takes several days).

Among different fruits, pineapple have characteristic pleasant flavour, distinct aroma and exquisite taste and ranks 6th position in world fruit production and is one of the most suitable fruit used for osmotic dehydration. Osmo dehydration is one of the relatively simple preservation techniques for processing of fruits which does not require any sophisticated equipments. So, the pineapple growers can use such type of technique and can convert pineapples into dehydrated form during the excess production during glut season and to reduce huge post harvest losses. In the osmotic dehydration process, partial dehydration of the fruit pieces is accomplished by dipping in concentrated sugar syrup solution followed by hot air dehydration. It is a useful technique for producing safe, stable, nutritious, tasty, economical and concentrated fruit products. The products prepared from pineapple by osmo-dehydration process remain good up to six months of storage at room temperature.
