SAUCED!


Applesauce!
Start with 1/2 bushel apples. Mine happened to be MacIntosh.
Wash apples in sink full of cold water and perhaps 1/2 c white vinegar.
Hopefully, this will remove most of the pesticides.
YUCK
Cut apples in 1/4's, removing only the stem end, and the little butt piece at the other end. NOTHING ELSE GETS CUT OUT!
I tossed all the apples in my electric roaster, set on around 200 F.
Add maybe 1/2 c water, initially, to keep apples from burning before they lose some of their own juices. Cover roaster.
If using your stovetop, simply put apples in large pan with the water, and stir every 15 min or so.

Cook apples till all have softened, stirring every 15 min or so.
This took approximately 3 hours.

Put mushy apples thru a food mill, cleaning out the skins and pits every time you add more apples.
Now here is where the fun begins!
Joy, from savvycityfarmer.blogspot.com, makes her applesauce sweet and pretty pink by adding 3 small packages regular strawberry jello to the sauce. I did that to my first 1/2 bushel, and boy, it was good!
This time, I added no sugar or jello, but added perhaps 1 Tbl or so, of cinnamon.
You could add sugar, or not. You could add nutmeg. Your call.

The final product, headed for the freezer. Approximately 12 pints.
As much as I like the pretty clear/blue containers, the frugal side of me opts for old yogurt and cottage cheese containers. I ran out with my last batch, so had to buy the blue ones.
All this applesauce, and I can't even eat it!
Apples of most any kind give me a tummy ache. Cider. Pie. Applesauce.
C'est la vie!
Pin It!

Unknown said...

Girlfriend, you are Mrs. Domesiticity. Are you cooking like a freak 24/7 right now or WHAT? WOW! I'm so impressed!

Wildside Musing said...

I applaud your frugal side -- then my frugal side doesn't feel so alone!

(For re-using the plastic containers...)

Wildside Musing said...

And so sad you cannot eat the apples...
:-(

If all goes well in attempting to edit my template, I am going to add your blog to my sidebar soon -- hope that's ok by you.

kpjara said...

You poor thing! I can't imagine a fall without mulled cider! Just the scent of it is like a trigger to autumn.

kansasrose said...

You are just adorable! Love these pictures...how awful you can't enjoy apples and the "fruits" (no pun intended) of your labor Cyn...You and Joy should colaborate on writing a new vintage- style domestic Midwestern divas book...you are the cook and the cardigan/brooch wearing chook chic and Joy is the savvycity style maven of reburshing old things and making fabulous eclectic country interiors! I would buy it! Heck I could illustrate it!:)

Anna said...

Thanks for the demo! I'll be adding applesauce to baby Chase's menu soon. I had to hurry and put some homemade peach, pear and plum babyfood in the freezer before they went out of season. I'll definetely be making this for him. Hope he likes it more than brocolli...

Susanne said...

I love homemade applesauce. What a treat!

Cin said...

Thank you for this! I can't wait to make applesauce!!

Sorry you can't enjoy the fruits of your labor but I'm sure being able to share it makes it ok, or close to being ok! ;-)

Homemaker's Heart said...

I'm so glad you shared this! I just bought a whole basket full of apples and don't like to use sugar if at all possible (I don't eat sugar or any sweetener's). Thank you! Do you think Granny Smith's could be used? I've got some of those too.

Lori said...

Your applesauce looks delicious. We will be making another batch real soon, cause the kids eat it up so fast. Makes you feel good to give the family something that tastes so good, and is also good for their bodies.

Hi,

I'm spending my time here for the children of Haiti.

I'm doing my part for a non-profit organization that is dedicated to
building an oppurunity for the children in haiti. If anyone wants to donate then this is the place:

[url=http://universallearningcentre.org]Donate to Haiti[/url] or Help Haiti

They give children in Haiti books and teach them.

And yes, they're real.

It would be awesome if you could help us

Long time lurker, thought I would say hello! I really dont post much but thanks for the good times I have here. Love this place..

When I was hurt in that vehicle accident my life would be changed forever. Sadly that driver had no car insurance and I was going to be in pain for ever.

This was not time for me to start and guess what to do. I had to find a good personal injury lawyer to help me get what I needed. After all, my family was counting on me.

How bad was it? I has bedridden for 6 months, I had to have constant care and my hospital bills went through the roof!

Luckily, I found a good referral site to help me.

I will post more later this year to tell you more about what I have been going through.

If you need an accident attorney try the guys at

Everything about horse betting

Where did that harbinger of doom, the missing 0.5% of handle go? Our best guess is that you'll find that, and much more, going to the enterprising non-pool race and sports books that have cropped up to better serve today's horse racing fans. Most of these on-line books offer full track odds, signup bonuses, cash back on wagers, and give refunds for scratches, instead of forcing the bet to the track favorite. Oh, and did we mention that most don't impose taxes of any sort on winnings.
[url=http://www.pulsebet.com]horce racing odds[/url]
In the United States, races can occur on flat surfaces of either dirt or grass, generally for thoroughbred racing. Other tracks offer quarter horse racing]] and harness racing. The best events in US horse racing have been Kentucky Derby, which, together with the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes, form the Triple Crown for three-year-olds. However, in recent years the Breeders' Cup races, held at the end of the year, have been challenging the Triple Crown events, held early in.


What makes this event so difficult to win? Several factors have to be considered. First there's the age of the horses. Triple Crown races are limited to 3 year olds, juveniles, all of whom officially have their birthday on January 1st of each year. By the first Saturday in May (the running of the Kentucky Derby), though most of the contestants will have actually reached their third birthday, they won't realize their full growth and potential until their fourth or fifth years.

[url=http://www.pulsebet.com]horce racing bets[/url]
Now that Ah Day has passed on the Preakness, eight other horses will be looking to spoil Barbaro's bid for the second leg of the Triple Crown. Two are returning from their Derby bids and six more that skipped the Run for the Roses.
