Miscellaneous Monday: Food Storage Cookbook Review

Food Storage Cookbook Review:  Cooking with Food Storage Made Easy by Debbie G Harman

Layout:  Good.  Recipes are categorized by preservation method (preserving, drying, etc.) and then by type of dish (main, side, soup, etc.).

Recipes:  A total of around 200 recipes.  Many of the recipes use home-canned/dried foods or expanded food storage items like cheese sauce powder or sour cream powder.  As far as using LDS home storage center long-term food storage items, this cookbook does contain recipes using dry milk powder, wheat, beans, etc.

Overall:  If you will be preserving your own food (canning, drying, freezing) and/or buying these types of items, there are plenty of recipes to help you here.  If you want a cookbook that uses the basic long-term food storage items that are available at the LDS home storage centers, you could adapt some of these recipes to use more of them, but otherwise it isn't chock full of these types of recipes.

What I like:  Includes recipes to use home canned or home dried foods.
