About this ebook
Change the way you relate to food with 101 easy recipes for everyday basics that encourage you to ditch ultra-processed meals in favor of nourishing, homemade dishes, from the creator of the hit blog Eating From The Ground Up.
“The Homemade Pantry is the sort of book that makes you want to head straight for your kitchen.”—Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Every Day
“This book is both practical and inspiring, authoritative and down to earth. Why not make my own hot sauce, mozzarella, or graham crackers? From now on, I know I will.”—Molly Wizenberg, author of A Homemade Life
The Homemade Pantry was born of a tight budget, Alana Cernila’s love for sharing recipes with her farmers’ market customers, and a desire to enjoy a happy cooking and eating life with her young family. On a mission to kick their packaged-food habit, she learned that with a little determination, anything she could buy at the store could be made in her kitchen, and her homemade versions were more satisfying, easier to make than she expected, and much tastier.
Here are her very approachable recipes for 101 everyday staples, organized by supermarket aisle—from crackers to cheese, pesto to sauerkraut, and mayonnaise to toaster pastries. Be inspired by warm mozzarella that is stretched, thick lasagna noodles rolled from flour and egg, and fresh tomato sauce that bubbles on the stove. Whether you’re trying a recipe for butter, potato chips, spice mixes, or ketchup, you’ll discover the magic and thrill that comes with the homemade pantry.
With stories offering patient, humble advice, tips for storing homemade foods, and vibrant photography throughout, The Homemade Pantry is a celebration of food made from scratch and is sure to become your go-to source for making delicious staples in your home kitchen.

A great read, packed with essential ingredient how-to. Wished this book had been around the years I lived outside the US. Thanks for all your hard work.

As someone who truly enjoys cooking and baking and comes from a farming family in N. California, I was already familiar with a making my own foods and I know of course homemade is better than the preservative laden packaged foods but I had never done things like make my own ketchup and mustard, or make my own mozzarella and ricotta, all things I now do after reading this book. She doesn't preach all or nothing but rather do what you can depending on what works for you and your family.
