What will I learn?
You will build a complete foundation in food preservation science, covering microbiology, pH control, water activity, and the four core mechanisms that stop spoilage. You will work through canning, fermentation, pickling, dehydration, curing, smoking, and sweet preserves with step-by-step technique instruction. Food safety is woven into every chapter, including botulism prevention, sanitation protocols, and regulatory compliance concepts. You will also explore packaging, labelling, sensory evaluation, and shelf-life testing.
