Food Storage and Preparation
All that food in your garden in September isn’t going to do you a bit of good come February unless you know how to store it, keep it fit to eat, and turn it into something edible when needed. All our great-grandparents knew this stuff inside and out.

Fireless Cookery A little gem of a book that covers all phases of that forgotten device, the old-fashioned fireless cooker (aka hay box): a box lined with insulation, in which foods brought to a boil on the stove cook for hours by way of their own residual heat. Includes several different fireless cooker designs, tips for use, and plenty of recipes.		Dry It – You’ll Like It Gen MacManiman runs a small local business producing very nice handmade dehydrators in the Puget Sound area, and this book is an offshoot of that business. It's still one of the better books on drying foods that you'll find. Includes plans for one you can build at home, with some suggestions for non-electric use.
The Art of Home Cheesemaking Translated from Swedish and focusing on Scandinavian styles of cheese.		We’ll Eat Again A collection of recipes and articles issued by Britain's Ministry of Food during World War II, with a good deal of relevant information for any period of scarcity.
The Virginia Housewife The first cookbook published in the South, with plenty of old-time recipes from the days before food came in cans and packages		Home Sausage Making The title says it all. Sausage making, over and above its culinary virtues, can also be a good way to preserve meats.
Preserving the Fruits of the Earth Very comprehensive, with chapters on most of the standard oldtime ways of preserving foods. Includes an encyclopedia section that gives details on preserving nearly every food grown, hunted, gathered, caught or raised in the United States		The First American Cookbook How they did it in Colonial times. This is a facsimile of the first cookbook ever published in America
Old Sturbridge Village Cookbook How they did it in Colonial times, continued. Plenty of information on cooking on an open hearth		Housekeeping in Old Virginia How they did it before and during the Civil War, in much more detail.
The Food Conspiracy Cookbook This is a handbook for starting and operating a neighborhood food buying network by a founding member of the Berkeley Food Conspiracy. Some recipes included.		The Complete Sprouting Cookbook A hippie classic, complete with the paper-bag-colored pages that were so popular in the early 70s. Includes info on sprouting and cooking with 25 different types of seed.
