FSM 360: Preserve Apple Butter from Washington Apple Harvest
Transcript
[music]
Welcome to Food Safety in a Minute from Washington State University Extension.
Did you know Washington State produces 124 million 40-pound boxes of apples each year? Popular varieties include Gala, Granny Smith, Red Delicious, Honeycrisp, Fuji, and Cosmic Crisp®.
It’s the perfect time to preserve a little comfort making and preserving apple butter. Sweet, spiced, and shelf-stable. For food safety and quality, always use a research-based, tested recipe and follow directions carefully. The National Center for Home Food Preservation is a trusted source. Eight pounds of apples yield 8 to 9 pints of apple butter. Pint jars are processed in a boiling water canner for five to fifteen minutes, depending on altitude.
The Center also offers safe, research-based recipes for applesauce, spiced apple rings, sliced apples, and reduced-sugar apple butter.
Thanks for listening, I’m Susie Craig.
