This cookbook is full of gorgeous pictures that make you want to dive right into cooking and preserving. The canning charts are super handy if you're into preserving flavors. Personally, I'm excited to whip up some Quick Pickles and the Balsamic Beet Salad with feta and Pecans– they sound so tempting!

They've grouped the recipes by seasons, which is smart for using fresh ingredients. Although, I wish they organized each chapter further by the types of meals for even quicker browsing.

What really caught my attention is the mix of recipes from different cultures – along with informational captions. The instructions are easy to follow, making me all the more excited to give them a go soon.

Bottom line, this cookbook has got me excited to experiment in the kitchen and try out some new flavors.
