Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Apple Pie Filling

 

Ingredients


FOR 1 QUART FILLING

3 1/2 cup sliced fresh apples
3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus...
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1/4 cup clear jel(tm)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup cold water
3/4 cup apple juice
2 tbsp bottled lemon juice
1/8 tsp nutmeg (optional)
1 drop yellow food coloring (optional)

FOR 7 QUARTS FILLING

6 qt sliced fresh apples
5 1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cup clear jel(tm)
1 tbsp cinnamon
2 1/2 cup cold water
5 cup apple juice
3/4 cup bottled lemon juice
1 tsp nutmeg (optional)
7 drop yellow food coloring (optional)



 

Preparation

Quality: Use firm, crisp apples. Stayman, Golden Delicious, Rome, and
other varieties of similar quality are suitable. If apples lack
tartness, use an additional 1/4 cup of lemon juice for each 6 quarts
of slices.

Yield: 1 quart or 7 quarts

Procedure: Wash, peel, and core apples. Prepare slices 1/2-inch wide
and place in water containing ascorbic acid to prevent browning. For
more information see "Ensuring High-Quality Canned Foods".

For fresh fruit, place 6 cups at a time in 1 gallon of boiling water.
Boil each batch 1 minute after the water returns to a boil. Drain,
but keep heated fruit in a covered bowl or pot. Combine sugar, Clear
Jel(tm) , and cinnamon in a large kettle with water and apple juice.
If desired, food coloring and nutmeg may be added. Stir and cook on
medium high heat until mixture thickens and begins to bubble. Add
lemon juice and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Fold in drained
apple slices immediately and fill jars with mixture without delay,
leaving 1 inch headspace. Adjust lids and process immediately
according to the recommendations in Table 1. See Table 2 for
suggested quantities.
