But before you throw everything out and start again, find out if there is something you can do to save the situation. |  | How to Freeze Fruit & Vegetables1 Freezing has advantages over other methods of home preserving of fruit and vegetables. It is simpler and quicker than heat preservation, and it suits small quantities that would be impractical to store by other means. Also, more of the true flavour, colour and appearance of the food is retained by freezing. |  | How to Bottle Fruit & Vegetables1 Apart from freezing, bottling is the only other method of preserving food that keeps the natural taste and texture of the produce almost intact. The process is not difficult. Basically, it involves packing fruit into bottling jars, covering the contents with water, syrup or brine, sterilising this at high temperatures, then sealing the jars while hot to prevent bacteria entering. |  | How To Make Jellies1 Jelly and jam making are very similar, although the former requires rather more time and care. The key to making a perfect, jewel-bright jelly is to ensure that all traces of pulp, skin and pips are completely eliminated, leaving only the fruit’s richly coloured and flavoured juices. |
