Few things say fall more than pumpkin, but did you know it can only be preserved with some guidelines in mind? On this week’s episode of Perfectly Preserved, we discuss how to preserve everything pumpkin. 

We discuss what sets pumpkin apart from other foods, and what that means for how to preserve it. You’ll learn what it takes to work around pumpkin’s low acidity and high density when canning, as well as how to dehydrate and freeze pumpkin. Jenny also shares some favorite apple recipes for more fall preservation. 

Tune in, get inspired, and let’s make the most of those fall flavors!
