CANNING APPLE SAUCE

You could also use a stock pot on the stove top or use a crock pot!!

[@rebeccadavis6812]

Thank you for demonstrating how to operate the food mill and clear out the blockage and use the canning pot with the rings for the size jars you were using. God has gifted you with teaching (& video making/editing); thank you for your videos!

[@Ruthannzimm]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ronjohn9651]

You can also put a dish towel in the bottom of your canner to keep you jars off direct heat, because its wet it wont burn.

[@michaeljaques2316]

You are such a great teacher! I learn so much watching you channel.

[@marilyncapehart663]

You are one busy lady, like the other homesteaders. My mother used to Can, but I was little & did not pay Attention., thanks for the share 8-28-2023👍🏽👍🏽❤️. I like Applesauce sometimes

[@cherylb.9766]

You shared a lot of helpful tips. Thank you

[@lorikcoquat]

Thank you so much for your easy to follow recipes. You are a very gracious lady and I would take skills over education any day!

[@jamiesmith3837]

My great great grandmother used to make an apple sauce cake out of her fresh apple sauce that was so delicious..sure miss the old days..

[@sarahvadas2536]

Mrs RuthAnn, you've solved my mill operation problem!! I didn't know you were supposed to go backwards to scrape 🙈

[@Ruthannzimm]

Im happy it was a helpful tip!!!

[@joyces.9021]

I like using applesauce for substituting for half the sugar and oil in baking.😋 And of course, for just eating on its own! Great taste and nutrition.👌Love your canning ring idea!

[@hazelbrungard1623]

A labor of love for a family.😊😊😊

[@sfunete1870]

My first canning adventure was making apple sauce with my mom in my 40s, just before she passed away in 2019. I've since been canning all sorts of stuff including my new pressure canner. She was farm girl from Nebraska and a wealth of knowledge that I took for granted until she was gone. I love all your videos that remind of her and her many talents. I just fiished salsa and tomato sauce last week, I'm going to pull out my roaster and make apple sauce out of two 5 gallon buckets of apples I was given this week. Thank you for all your videos 😃

Great tutorial on canning applesauce; thanks for sharing! I love applesauce & freeze a lot of mine but have canned some this year to save freezer space. Blessings to everyone 🤗💕🇨🇦

[@MyTableofThree]

I just love watching your videos! They are so relaxing and helpful! I need to get a food mill for next year.

[@Ruthannzimm]

Thank you!!!

[@Sherry8172]

I just made some with your recipe. So simple. Thank you.

[@marlys7426]

Such an enjoyable video!

[@jenniferr.2122]

Thanks again for the good instructions. I made applesauce last month for the first time. I sweetened the batch with some maple syrup. Didn't know that you can make without. LOL Will remember that for next year. The farmer suggested Zestar apples for applesauce and they were good.

[@kljames3707]

Thank you, Ruthann! God bless you!

[@marlindaperez4173]

Had to watch your video again, I’m about to can for the very first time and wanted to make sure I was doing to right. Thank you.🎉 Here’s hoping it comes out good😂

[@maggiedoor6093]

I'm rewatching too, I made a canning Playlist to refer back to.

[@girlmeetshomestead]

I have so much to learn! This was great!!! I am excited to give this a try. ♥️

[@girlmeetshomestead]

I do have one question: what temp should the water bath be at for those 20 minutes? Thanks!!

[@Ruthannzimm]

Boiling water for 20 minutes, 212F

[@johnreginahenderson7032]

Great video! Once again I’ve learned something new! Thank you Ruth Ann!😊Regina

[@fruitsofmylabors7879]

Oh my gosh I’m so glad you said you’d left it over night. I started earlier today to make sauce out of my Asian pears but I just don’t have the energy to finish tonight. I’ll turn it way down and finish in the morning. I so appreciate your tips and tutorials

[@lindatornowski2421]

Have two roosters, one I use for meats such as chicken, roast, etc. the other I use strictly for canning fruits. I bought my second roaster at a thrift store also for $10 and it looked like it had never been used. The thrift store roaster is probably 50 years old and works like a charm. Thank you for all the information you have helped me with all my canning needs.

[@carrolinenewtonisaac3234]

Thanks for sharing, I’m learning a lot from you thanks .

[@kimberleemonroe2255]

Working on all sorts of peppers while watching your video.😊your roaster looks about like mine😂lots of use! I always make apple cider vinegar with all the peels. Sometimes the goats and chickens get them . Love your channel and once again thank you for all you share.

[@Ruthannzimm]

Thank you!!

[@melaniestill305]

I love the mill. I have used it for over 40 years. Then last year I cut out the cores of the apples then cook the apples down. The pulp I then stick blend until a puree. So easy.

[@lisashanefakourey4703]

I can’t find the recipe. Love all your videos. We need a cookbook from you

I would love to see a tour of your pantry and freezers. Also, do you have a link for that food mill?

[@lindakitts4304]

I wish I still had my collider. I guess I’ll have to buy another one.

[@lrfox49]

Looks good

[@melodyreddecopp5591]

Thanks for confirming to me that I can open kettle my applesauce! I did it that way last year but kind of doubted myself. Last year I bought a food mill attachment for our small meat grinder and it made the sauce-making process go so much faster. We have about 10 apple trees so anything that helps make sauce-making quicker is helpful. We do like to make cider as well, but need to find a bigger apple crusher and press.

[@barbarastopinski857]

I have been canning open kettle everything including apple sauce for years with no problems.

[@rhodachavarria1430]

I don't can in 2 quart jars anymore but I use the rack that comes with the PC to put in the bottom of the water bath canner for pints or pint and a half jars.

[@Ruthannzimm]

Brilliant Idea!!! thank you!!!

[@maggiedoor6093]

I wonder if tying rings together with string would create a round base at a pinch?

[@eleanorz9965]

@@maggiedoor6093 I tried that a couple of years ago in a pinch....problem was that it didn't work long term because the rings start to rust. Just my experience.

[@peggycheney1839]

Thanks for showing how to make applesauce. I've made apple butter years ago. Don't think I'm gonna get any apples this year, squirrels carrying them away as fast as they grow.

[@scofieldfarm]

I know this is an old video, so you might not see my question, but do you add lemon juice? A lot of other recipes call for it, and just wondering if it was complete necessary or not, since I would rather not if I don't need to. Thanks!

[@lindamclachlanmardnfmn3851]

I was wondering the same thing

[@brandibizzle3676]

I came to the comments looking for that answer too

[@brandimelvin3952]

Ooooh.. I need to make applesauce now! Thanks! Also. Out of curiosity. If you needed to pressure cook those big jars (or any jars) would it still be ok to use the rings at the bottom of the pot to make more room? New to canning and wasn’t sure if it would be different . Thanks!

[@Ruthannzimm]

Yes!! You could still use the rings. Although pressure canners usually have a heavier bottom marking the heat distribute more evenly.

[@brandiyoung4726]

I didn’t know you could can in 1/2 gallon jars. Thank you so much! Would it be okay to can tomato sauce in 1/2 gallon too?

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Cute boys and puppies! Have you ever seen a Victorio strainer? They are a similar concept, but they can do a lot more and way faster. I have a Foley food mill, but I get frustrated at how long it takes.

[@Ruthannzimm]

Yes I have one and use it for large batches.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

[@scentsbyemebathbody3161]

Do you ever save your peel & cores to make anything with them ?

[@angenettebloom4344]

I don’t have a food mill (it’s added to the list!) I’m currently cooking the apples down in a Dutch oven in the oven, do you have a suggestion on what to use instead of a food mill?

[@Ruthannzimm]

You could mash them through a strainer??

[@susanparrott5175]

Hello, I just found you today. I haven't canned. 20 minutes... at a rolling boil? Thank you

Do you add lemon juice to your applesauce?

At do you use your Apple sauce on or in

[@jennifervandermeulen2212]

Question: I canned apple sauce for the 1st time. I left the headspace on the neck but during processing most of my jars Applesauce expanded up to the bottom of the lid. They appear to be sealed. Is it normal to have your apple sauce expand all the way up during processing?

[@hazelbrungard1623]

When you cut the apples up, set a large amount of peelings aside and make your own homemade apple cider vinegar

[@trishdolan3455]

What type of apples do you use?

[@loucilehall9281]

Use your pressure cooker insert

[@itscommonsense3128]

Other sites recipes call for adding lemon juice for PH

[@Ruthannzimm]

Apples are plenty acidic enough

[@CottageontheCorner]

I thought you had to add lemon juice. And also, if you add sugar, can you add brown sugar or honey and would that change the canning process?

[@maggiedoor6093]

It wouldn't change the process, it would the taste. People use brown sugar, white, maple syrup etc. Some use lemon juice, I don't but my apple slices are sitting in citric acid ( 2-3 teaspoons in a large bowl)and water while I am in between batches. I drain them before cooking. Reuse the water mix.

I can’t find the link for the food mill please

[@lisanorris6518]

Thanks for showing canning in 1/2 gallon jars. I know that the old timers canned in even gallon jars. And we are told we can't do that. Do you have a video on canning tomatoes in 1/2 gallon jars?

[@Ruthannzimm]

I dont have any videos on tha, sorry!

[@wendy2cc]

My family likes chunky applesauce. How would you keep it chunky? Would you cook some chopped up apples in a separate pot and mix together?

[@eleanorz9965]

That's what I do to make some chunky. Core and peel the apples and put just apple slices/pieces/chunks into the pot with some water and lemon juice. I cook it down to where we like it - sometimes use a potato masher on a few bigger pieces, and then I put it right into my hot jars from the pot!

[@wendy2cc]

@@eleanorz9965 Thank you! That sounds easy enough. 😊

[@sharonwittmayer1221]

I always thought the apple seeds are poisonous. Does cooking change that?

If you are using store purchased apples, how do you get the herbicides and pesticides off?

If I am using 1 quart jars can I do 10 or 15 minutes?

[@lesliedean7303]

Your length of time water bath canning depends on what you're canning contents-wise, the elevation of your city, and the size of your jars. You should be able to Google what your elevation level is and then use that to look up water bath time charts.

[@robertjmueller6260]

How long would you personally water bath pints of applesauce?
