sure.jell® _canning_recipe: Spiced Pumpkin-Pecan Butter !!
Comments (24)"Of course, the thing is, it depends on how you define "safe." That gave me a grin, Zabby. Never even thought of various levels of safe! I understand that canned pumpkin butter turning 'bad' is rare, and sickness or death caused by spoiled product is also a rarity. However... If I follow directions correctly, I do want to know that whatever I'm preparing is not going to make me or my family sick. Guaranteed. I think everyone expects the same. That is at least one reason some of us frequent this site, and probably the same for their site. There is no warning connected to instructions that says anything about a minute possibility of a small percentage of people falling ill after preparing and eating a canned Pumpkin Butter recipe, even when done correctly. Kraft is evidentially quite confident that it is safe. I hit 'reply' to the message I received above... This is the second message I sent: ................................................ Please note that I am NOT displeased with your recipe. It looks to have wonderful flavor and I'd love to be able to make it with confidence. However as I stated, I do have some serious concerns. Not one of the national canning institutes I have found recommend home canning pureed/mashed pumpkin or squash except you, and I can not figure out why. Can you guarantee me and the general public, that it is absolutely safe to make precisely as written on your site? Thank you so much for your time Crystal .............................. The reply back: Thank you for taking the time to visit us at http://www.kraftfoods.com/ and for letting me know about your experience. I know how disappointing it can be when a recipe doesn't turn out properly, and I'm sorry to hear that happened. I can assure you the recipe you received is correct as written. Our Kraft Kitchens Team thoroughly tests all of our recipes before they're published to ensure their accuracy. They may even take the extra step of having other members of the company review the recipes before they issue the final seal of approval. I hope this doesn't discourage you from trying one of the other recipes on our website, as I'm sure you'll find some great new ones that'll soon become family favorites! It was great hearing from you, and I encourage you to browse our website to take advantage of the great online food content that's available 24 hours a day! Kim McMiller Associate Director, Consumer Relations .............................. There ya go. It is safe, yes? But I still can't bring myself to make it. I'm still not understanding the whole picture. I'm not sure she was addressing MY question ...looking me in the eye, so to speak. It is safe in a 10 minute BWB but, NCHFP doesn't have a safe recipe to recommend to use with a pressure canner? Maybe it's not odd that one side won't gamble with my health but the other doesn't even blink. On the other hand, maybe they know more about the preservative powers of sugar and the correct amount to use than other canners do? I don't know.. they won't tell me. I've got to stop rambling on about this. It is so NOT like me ..so I give up. Frozen or canned cubed pumpkin it will be. Crystal...See MoreCan I substitute butter in this recipe?
Comments (7)Another useful substitute for shortening is (non-hydrogenated) coconut oil, and you can often reduce the amount by 20-25-percent and get the same results. I purchase LouAna brand in the cooking oil/shortening section at Wal-Mart and our Kroger affiliated Dillons stores. This particular brand doesn't have any coconut flavor or odor - so is neutral in taste. It is solid like shortening, but as the temperature goes up, it will get soft and start to liquefy at 76-77-degrees F. That's how you know it wasn't hydrogenated. I make a whole wheat angel biscuit recipe and after I roll the dough out I cut the biscuits with a pizza cutter into square biscuits. This method is faster and will prevent "second cuts". That's the dough remaining after you cut round biscuits and you rework it to cut more biscuits. The problem with second cuts is that the dough is over-worked, developing the gluten in the flour even more, and you get tough biscuits from second cuts. Then I place the cut biscuits on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and quick-freeze the biscuits, and store them in the freezer in plastic containers, freezer bag, or vacuum-sealed in a FoodSaver bag. Bake a few in your toaster oven when needed, or larger amounts in your oven - 400-degrees F for 10-12-minutes. -Grainlady...See MoreRECIPE: Need a recipe for apple butter cake.
Comments (10)My grandmother use to make Apple Butter and Annie was kind enough to share her recipe for Apple butter last year. I had planned to use some of the apples off our two apple trees but never got around too it. Maybe this year. But like you Cindy, I've never had apple butter in a cake. But I have had apple butter cakes. Home Cookin Chapter: Recipes From Thibeault's Table Apple Butter ============ Apple Butter recipe Posted by annie1992 (My Page) on Mon, Jul 3, 06 at 1:22 This recipe is Grandma's and I won a blue ribbon the year I was 12 at the county fair using this recipe. Dad was prouder of that ribbon than he was when I finished college, I think. LOL I did change this recipe in one way. I bake it in the oven instead of standing at the stove stirring a boiling pot of apple butter. I can go do other things and I don't get all those little burns on my arm from the volcanos of boiling apple butter. I bake it in a big non-reactive roaster at about 250F. This takes 8-10 hours but the house will smell sooooo good. Stir it about once an hour. I've baked it hotter, but you have to be very careful that it doesn't overcook and taste caramelized. If you want it more quickly, turn it up to 350 for the first couple of hours, until the pulp starts to thicken, then turn it down to finish but watch it carefully. You can also do this in a crockpot, but again, watch carefully. Today's crockpots will overcook it quickly and you'll get that caramelized flavor. Grandma Powell's Apple Butter 6 lbs apples quartered (about 12 apples, I use MacIntosh) 2 quarts sweet apple cider 2 cups sugar 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp cloves Simmer apples in cider until tender, then put through a food mill or sieve. Measure 3 quarts of apple pulp and cook until mixture mounds on a spoon. Add sugar and spices (taste it, you can add more or less to make it the way you like it), cook stirring frequently until mixture is thick, about 1 hour. Watch carefully as the apple butter thickens so it doesn't stick and scorch. Pour hot into hot jars, add rings and lids. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes for pints and quarts. Makes about 6 pints (depending on how juicy your apples are) This is a recipe that you HAVE to taste to get it right. The apples could be very sweet or extremely sour. If they are juicy, they'll cook down and make less but it will taste just as good. I regularly add more cloves because I love that flavor, and sometimes I add ginger. Occasionally I use half brown sugar. Oh, and I always reuse the cider, I either cook more apples in it and make a double batch of apple butter, or I strain it and make apple jelly. Incidentally, if you think you can use that much, you don't have to can it, it'll keep in the refrigerator for a week or two. It doesn't freeze well, though, it kind of "separates".
