Comments (7)To Prepare Fruit Puree: Sort, stem, and wash ripe fruit or thaw frozen unsweetened fruit; crush fruit thoroughly; measure crushed fruit. Add 1 cup boiling water to each 4 cups crushed fruit and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer to soften--about 5 for soft fruits...about 10 minutes for firm fruits like cherries and grapes. Press through sieve. SYRUPS MADE WITH PUREE 4 cups puree 4 cups sugar 1/2 package or less powdered pectin (if desired) 3 or 4 Tbsp lemon juice (if desired) 1. Mix puree, sugar, pectin and lemon juice. 2. Bring to boil and stir for 2 minutes (boil till jelly thermometer reaches 218F). 3. Remove from heat, skim off foam, and pour into 1/2 pint or 1 pint jars to within 1/2 inch of top. 4. Adjust lids and process in boiling water bath canner for 10 minutes. 5. Remove from canner and cool. 6. Check lids, label, and store in cool, dry place. To Prepare Fruit Juice: Sort, stem and wash ripe fruit or thaw frozen, unsweetened fruit; crush fruit thoroughly. Place crushed fruit in dampened jelly bag and drain. For clearest juice, do not press bag to extract juice. For firm fruits, heat is needed to start flow of juice. Add about 1/2 cup water to each 3 cups crushed fruit. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Place hot fruit in dampened jelly bag; drain. SYRUPS MADE WITH JUICE 4 cups juice 4 cups sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice (if desired) 1/2 package or less powdered pectin (if desired) 1. Mix juice, sugar, lemon juice and pectin. 2. Bring to boil and boil 2 minutes. 3. Remove from heat, skim off foam, and pour into 1/2 pint or 1 pint canning jars to within 1/2 inch of top. 4.

Comments (1)Boiling water bath canning, or pressure canning?? They can boil out due to the syrup or apples not being very hot when initially packed into the jars. Flavor may change some, but TEXTURE will definately change or time. If done in a pressure canner, you may want to consider allowing them to remain a few more minutes to cool down more before you open the canner. Here, I added boiling brine to a jar then pulled a vacuum on it. The result was a very STRONG boiling within the vacuum sealed jar, even though there was no heat applied after capping. Lower air pressure inside made the liquid boil very hard again. Pressure canning can also do this, and because the internal temps are very high inside each jar, if they are exposed to cooler and lower outside pressure they can also boil out liquid. It may also be wise to use an inch of headspace as opposed to 1/2 inch. With jars that leaked, you may want to just refrigerate them. The Red Hots contain cinnamon oil, and thats what makes it hot on the tongue. after a few weeks it should tame down a little. Almost like making vinegar brined cukes into pickles. Tasting right after canning gives a weak flavor to the cukes. A month later, they take on the flavor of the brine much better. Did you TASTE your liquid before adding it to the jars? I do hope so, especially if the recipe is too weak or strong flavored. Most people don't like off tastes or surprises once a jar is opened for the first time. Best of luck!...See MoreRECIPE: Apple Pinwheels in Syrup, Oh My
Comments (5)Sue, next time add a bit of heavy cream to the as well. Makes the sauce even more decadent than it all ready is. I have some puff pastry in the freezer that might just be destined for this. Thanks for the suggestion. Ann...See More- 13 years ago
