Rochester Post-Bulletin: There's a new, simpler way to can preserves
If you know someone who likes to preserve fruits, berries and vegetables, there's a new book that puts a new spin on the process.
"Savory Sweet: Simple Preserves from a Northern Kitchen," by Beth Dooley and Mette Nielsen, introduces us to another way of preserving, not at all the way your grandmother saved summer's bounty.
Forget about sterilized jars and lids, or adding pectin, no hot-water bath either. The authors describe it as "preserving the northern way."
Art and Posthumanism: Cary Wolfe in conversation with Art after Nature series editors Giovanni Aloi and Caroline Picard.
Life in Plastic: Petrochemical fantasies and synthetic sensibilities, with Caren Irr, Lisa Swanstrom, Jennifer Wagner-Lawlor, and Daniel Worden.
Live: A book launch for We Are Meant to Rise at Next Chapter Booksellers features Carolyn Holbrook, David Mura, Douglas Kearney, Melissa Olson, Said Shaiye, and Kao Kalia Yang.
