[Sca-Cooks] period food preservation-- tell me about your experiments

[Johnna Holloway]

We've done smoking and also done corning of meats. There's been some 
canning, some fruits preserved
in alcohol, drying of fresh pastas and noodles, etc. Lacking space most 
of the time we ate these
up well before much time passed. I still think that Grace Firth's 
Stillroom Cookery is the book on this topic.
