JOYCE GOLDSTEIN is a former Chez Panisse chef; the retired chef/owner of James Beard Award-winning restaurant Square One; and the author of twenty-eight books. Her preserves are sold at gourmet locations, such as Bi-Rite Market in San Francisco and Bread Furst in Washington, DC, and enjoyed by her very lucky grandchildren. She lives in San Francisco.
Each growing season and subsequent harvest marks a fresh opportunity to unleash Joyce Goldstein's unrelenting passion for preserving peak flavors for another day. My family and I have been fortunate to be on the receiving end of Joyce's jams, chutneys, and preserves, and each time we unscrew one of those lids, it is as if the flavor genie jumps out of the jar. The love and good taste that goes into the cooking and jarring can be tasted in each memorable bite. --Danny Meyer, author of Setting the Table I've waited (impatiently) for this glorious book. It's a must for preservers and lovers of flavor. I'll be cooking out of it for the rest of my life. --Diana Henry, London Telegraph columnist and author of A Bird in the Hand Culinary hero Joyce Goldstein guides us through the technical details and inspires creativity with seasonal recipes and clear, passionate descriptions of the craft of fine preserving. This book is sure to become a time-honored classic on the subject. --Suzanne Goin, chef and author of The A.O.C. Cookbook
