Putting Up: <BR>A Seasonal Guide to Canning in the Southern Tradition

For many, delectable home-canned goods often seem to stir up happy childhood memories and provide great comfort food. Putting Up teaches how to safely can our favorite fruits, vegetables, and preserves from days gone by, and helps to add that touch of comfort that our pantries have been missing.

In his plainspoken narrative, Steve Dowdney explains how to put up crops harvested during each month of the year and includes many delicious recipes he has produced for his successful canning business, Rockland Plantation Products. Dowdney discusses in great detail the technique of hot-pack and water-bath canning, and also supplies a list of resources where essential canning supplies can be purchased. More than just a how-to manual, Putting Up is a wonderful guide for experienced canners and those just getting started. It is chock full of anecdotes, stories, and vignettes of the long gone agrarian South that filled the author's youth, and pertinent, up-to-date information for canning today.

For twelve years, Steve Dowdney was the owner and chief operator of South Carolina's premiere "small batch" processing and canning company. As founder of Rockland Plantation Products, he takes great pride in the knowledge that the company's products taste exactly like the best of a grandmother's home-put up stores. Dowdney is a former Ranger, Airborne and Special Forces qualified combat veteran, and a graduate of The Citadel, where he and fellow classmate Pat Conroy co-wrote the yearbook. He resides in Charleston, South Carolina.
