preserving (canning) fruit and veg

I 'canned' lots of tomatoes last year. They looked beautiful but it was a long and energy consuming process and, to be frank, we were disappointed with the result... Do you mean disappointed by how they tasted when you eventually ate them? Had they lost flavour, or acquired an unpleasant one? . . . might just as well have frozen them... Maybe so. Do you ever worry about power cuts and losing a year's produce? And to keep things frozen for a year or more also consumes energy. Anyway, I'm interested in some of the alternative, old-fashioned ways of preserving foods, including drying. What do you dry your apples in? Brian Mitchell |
