Canning Apple Slices in Cinnamon Vanilla Syrup ~ Water Bath or Steam Canning ~ Home Canning Apples

[@mudoh2131]

My grandchildren just love the apples done this way. Took several cans camping with us in the summer now busy canning all the apples from the allotment. Thank you.

[@joshuaweiss7644]

In my experience with fruit float, I have found the choice of jar to be imperative. For vegetables or fruit that have a tendency to float I prefer using a regular mouth jar. To prevent fruit float, I fully pack the contents of the jar and strategically slide specific pieces of fruit or vegetables against the curvature of the jar to form a pressure fit. This has helped significantly reduce any floating issues. Hope this simple but useful tip helps!

[@JeannetteShoreland]

A great tip; and does the size of the slices or cubes also affect this floating phenomenon?

I always add ascorbic acid to my syrup . As you mentioned, 1 tsp. per cup of syrup . I purchase ascorbic acid in bulk instead of the expensive little jars of brand name product. When you peel apples or peaches , etc. when they oxidize , as soon as you put in the syrup with the ascorbic acid they turn bright colored again. The vanilla bean in the syrup sounds so good !

[@carol-thriftychichousewife6231]

Linda Peppers so you don’t soak in treated water while prepping?

[@KatMa664]

Sometimes the fruit comes back down to the bottom of the jar after it cools off a little. So I poured my juice out of my jar when I wanted to make a pie. I mixed in a little cornstarch slurry and it thicken right up. I added some raisins to the apples and poured them into my pie crust, added a few dabs of butter, covered with a top crust, and cooked it up. It was delicious.

[@carol-thriftychichousewife6231]

[@mariolakaminska1327]

I have watched a Polish lady canning and she said there’s an old forgotten method to help seal/ eliminate the air inside. Before putting the lid on the jar she would add 2-3 drops of rectified alcohol/ vodka in the middle of the lid, set the fire with a lighter and the the flame is about halfway done turning while you gently but firmly hold the lid in your hand, you would set it in the jar. I’ve done it and it’s great ! Just be very careful and don’t set your kitchen on fire 😂. With that done proceed to water can as instructed in your recipe.

Hi Carol years ago when my mother and I open kettle caned tomatoes they never floated and they were beautiful in the jars, now it doesn’t seem like it matters if you pressure can them or do a boiling water bath they always float (makes me crazy). I have started to stew my tomatoes like I did with my mother but I fill my jars and then I pressure can them, they settle down in the jars and look much better. The apples look delicious. Have you ever made spiced crabapples? Delicious!

Hha Can’t wait to try this one!! But one quick question...how do you know what you can safely add/change about a recipe? Thank you for all the time and energy you put into to helping/teaching us!! 💕💕 so thankful I found your channel!!!

[@carol-thriftychichousewife6231]

christina felton lol, tell hubby he needs Apple canning stuff in his life 😉🍎 It’s really hard to give you a blanket answer on what is safe to change. Flavorings and spices, type of sugar, salt, swapping one type of onion for another, swapping types of peppers, swapping one vinegar for another (must be 5% acidity) are all safe changes. One of the reasons I like to change up a tested recipe is to help show what can be done safely. Next week I’m going to show you how to can your own soup using safe guidelines. A good place to start is to familiarize yourself with the list of things that are a definite NO for canning. You can in most cases leave out an ingredient you don’t like from a tested recipe. Acids are an exception as they usually play a safety role. In my last Q&A video I linked an article that will help called Safe Tweaks for Canning. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. I’m really enjoying our group. You guys are a lot of fun! 😍

Great video! I’m gonna try this. Question- I have the Victorio steam canner and my directions say to wait five minutes with lid on after processing. Is this not what yours says?

[@carol-thriftychichousewife6231]

cabin life I noticed they revised their manual to match the instructions for water bath canning. Here’s the link smhttp-ssl-21049.nexcesscdn.net/media/manual/victorio-vkp1130-manual.pdf. However, when I found the discrepancy I contacted the office where the steam canning research was done and she said there’s no need to wait five minutes with the lid on or off. You can find a screen shot of her email response to me on my fb page under photos... actually I’ll post it to the community tab here. However, many of us are experiencing siphoning issues with things that are canned in liquid (not a jam or jelly) so I’m thinking it’s better to wait the 5 minutes with the lid on and maybe an additional five minutes with the lid off. This is not a safety issue as far as processing but the siphoning is a problem. I’m going to talk about this in a video I think. Check the community tab in a few to see the response about waiting...
