About

The delightfully old-fashioned art of "putting up" needn't mean crates of fruit, interminable water baths, and a sweltering kitchen. The 130 delicious recipes in this book - including Cherry Preserves with Cassis, Apple-Ginger Jam, Cinnamon-Citrus Marmalade with Apricots, and Kir Cocktail Jelly - are made with small quantities of fruit and standard kitchen equipment. Prepared without commercial pectin, the preserves are lower in sugar, allowing the full flavor of the fruit to shine through, and some are made with no refined sugar at all. Madelaine Bullwinkel's reassuring professional advice, how-to illustrations, and timesaving techniques make the process surprisingly simple.

Gourmet Preserves Chez Madelaine shows a new generation of home cooks the age-old craft of preserving fruit. In addition, author and French cooking instructor extraordinaire Madelaine Bullwinkel includes dozens of recipes for muffins, scones, crepes, puddings, pastries, desserts, and breakfast treats to use with these preserves.

The full flavor of fruit picked at the peak of freshness shines through in more than one-hundred recipes for preserves and forty recipes for desserts. Most of the recipes avoid using commercial pectin, which means you can use less sugar, or, in some cases, none at all. Bullwinkel has taught French cooking for over thirty-five years at her home-cooking school Chez Madelaine and across the US and France. Her thorough style combines with how-to illustrations and time-saving techniques in this book, making the process of canning and preserving surprisingly simple.
