Инструкции
- * Note: Use Jonathan, Winesap, Stayman, Golden brown Delicious, Macintosh or possibly other tasty apple varieties for best results.
- Wash, remove stems, quarter and core fruit. Cook slowly in cider and vinegar till soft. Press fruit through a colander, food mill or possibly strainer. Cook fruit pulp with sugar and spices, stirring frequently.
- To test for doneness, remove a spoonful and hold it away from steam for 2 min. It is done if the butter remains mounded on the spoon. Another way to determine when the butter is cooked adequately is to spoon a small quantity onto a plate. When a rim of liquid does not separate around the edge of the butter, it is ready for canning.
- Fill warm into warm sterile half-pint or possibly pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Qt jars need not be pre-sterilized, but jars should be warm prior to filling. Adjust lids and process for 10 min in a boiling-water bath.
- To sterilize empty jars, place them right-side up on the rack in a boiling-water canner. Fill the canner and jars with warm (not boiling) water to 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Boil 10 min at altitudes of less than 1,000 feet. At higher elevations, boil 1 additional minute for each additional 1,000 feet elevation. Remove and drain warm sterilized jars one at a time as filled.
