Today we got a lot of things carried out to the yellow kitchen to start canning the apples my dear hubby acquired.
My hubby went to town last week late in the day. He goes right by the food bank. Outside was a huge box full of apples and oranges. When they are there late in the day, they had given out to all that came that Wednesday. They are left to anyone that wants them. So dear hubby brought home 12 bags of Red Delicious Apples and 12 bags of Oranges.
My hubby and I started canning the apples today. He cut them up and I cook them so they will go into our old Oster machine sieve. Still works and I have had it since the 1980's. My Dear Father in Law bought it to help me out. He loved to grow a garden and I loved canning. I put up food for my Father and Mother in- law as well as our family of hubby and 3 kids.
My stove is working like a dream for canning. Dear Hubby adjusted the gas and away we went starting on those yummy apples.
This is all we got done today, with having to get it all set up and things carried out to the yellow kitchen.
I also used my new Tattler lids. So far so good. I sure will be glad to be able to reuse them.
There is no preservatives or sugar in this applesauce. It sure did taste yummy when I tasted it. Will sure be good on pancakes and also in baking.
