Synopsis

This is NOT a "how to can" book rather a collection of recipes that can be canned. Rebel Canning is my passion and dedication to preserving the time-honored methods and recipes for preserving food that has been handed down through families for generations. We believe firmly in maintaining family and social traditions from around the world. We value the family relationships that built through the handing down of these traditions for future generations to enjoy and pass on.

In this book, you will find methods and recipes from all over the world. Please note not all countries have the same suggested regulations or methods for preserving food. But do show respect people of other cultural backgrounds, many have been effectively using that different method for generations. It does not necessarily mean they are unsafe or wrong methods to use. They are just different methods than yours. Learn from each other and try to take away some little things from each that you can use be it a recipe or a technique.

While we recognize there is a need for food safety regulations for industrial canning companies we also acknowledge in mass productions that food may be contaminated and there is a need for a method of mass recalls. However, in a "farm to table" there are many ways have been handed down through families for generations. These small-scale home canning methods do not need the same regulations and testing that large companies are required.

Since "farm to table" is focused on natural foods, without the use of chemical additives you can't pronounce, it uses the natural ingredients found in every kitchen. This practice leaves the requirement for some "food" standards irrelevant to this application. Again, if you only want USDA tested recipes, this is not the book for you. Many methods contained in this book have their roots in other countries.

Sheri has a great-grandfather born in Alvinston, ON Tammy's grandfather McNeill was also born in the small Canadian town. Recently they made acquaintances when Tammy contacted Sheri to try to find their genealogical connection. Unable to verify their McNeil/McNeill connection by DNA since their relationship is no doubt beyond the scope of the test available to them they continue to research the possibilities. Sheri published a cookbook from her mothers family recipes in 2018 called Savory's Southern Specialties. In discussion with Tammy, she mentioned her desire to produce a cookbook for her Facebook group about canning. Sheri offered to help edit and design it which began the process. During the layout process of this book of Tammy and Sheri proved by luck that they indeed are cousins but NOT as McNeil/McNeill's, yet. Together they found traits and things in common that give them a greater understanding of each other.
