So you have grown your fruit and veg and enjoyed a bumper harvest this year, but you want to preserve some of the bounty for winter. Allotment.org has published a guide to blanching and freezing vegetables, with a very useful table of blanching times for the most common vegetables. Follow the link: http://www.allotment.org.uk/allotment_foods/Storing_the_Surplus_Freezing.php
There is also a useful guide to storing potatoes and root vegetables on the same site, as well as guides to cheesemaking, bottling and canning, bread and pastry making, as well as the usual jams and chutneys. See the full list of guides at http://www.allotment.org.uk/allotment_foods/index.php
