How To Make & Can Homemade Applesauce!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

What kind of apples do YOU use when making applesauce? 🍎🍏😎

[@Emerald_Acre_OH]

Thank you! I grew up canning with my mom. But this year is my first time attempting it on my own. I made apple sauce, and am going to make apple butter next. Thanks again!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

You're welcome!

[@marychilds8767]

Thank You for the demo! This product will take the hours of peeling apples, even with the peeler! My husbands favorite is "smooth" applesauce!

[@lindalou3635]

An amazingly easy way to make applesauce! Thanks for sharing

[@Aprons.Overalls]

Thank you, Linda! We just got our hands on a few crates of pears so Pear Sauce may be next! 😊😇

[@LilacChimeMeditation]

There is nothing better than applesauce! Thank you for sharing this. Very informative, and it looks absolutely delicious! 💜🌙

[@Aprons.Overalls]

You are so welcome! Thank you for the kind words. 😇

good work!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the ball deseeder/skinner thingy and never thought to try it for apples, absolutely brilliant! thank you!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

Thank you, Cathy! Means a lot coming from a pro-canner like yourself. :) This process was still a lot of work but the strainer made life SO much easier. We just got our hands on some pears so we'll see what kind of preserving we can do with those next.

[@bettyreynolds5106]

Thank you!!! I plan to make and can some!

Love my applesauce as the spread on top of toaster waffles. Sure for the purist you can make waffle batter like my mom did, but then again I'm an old widower who rarely cooked until I needed to add that skill set to pick up the slack or lack thereof.

This is very cool!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

Thank you!

The strainer attachment for the Kitchen Aid stand mixer works as well.

First thing I canned since my grandmother passing away in 1995 was tomatoes from our garden last year. then A friend of ours donated several hundred mason jars and we got busy. We give canned goods and jam to friends and family and neighbors for gifts. Pickled beets and Chow Chow and Bread and Butter pickles are a welcome side dish to any meal. I got a lot of sauerkraut to can in a few weeks, would prefer out of the crock for the probiotics but it's too easy to forget about the crock after you ate pork and kraut so much you want a break lol 😁

[@Aprons.Overalls]

KRAUT OVERLOAD! :)

[@teresitamendaros4682]

Thank you

[@wanderingstarfarmhouse]

Hooray, it's a canning week! I really need to get a camp stove. Trying to can on a ceramic top stove is a joke--It takes forever to heat up that much water!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

Amen! We have an electric stove too and found a great deal on that outdoor camping stove and it came with a 40qt stock pot. It's been a life saver until we're ready to upgrade the kitchen stove to gas.

Shouldn’t the seeds be removed so that it’s safe from cyanide?

[@andrewjr11]

Awesome Video. I have 2 questions. 1. Does that machine have other uses besides applesauce? 2. What was the darker colored area on the bottom of the jars? Say hi to Charlie for us! He has the right idea!

[@redlanternhomesteadcathym105]

tomatoes too!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

You can use it for many things. Tomatoes are one of the main items, as Cathy said. We bought an accessory kit that has additional screens so we can use it for berries too. Screening our mulberries was quite the chore for making jelly this spring but next year it's going to be so much easier. I've got links to all the items in the description. The version with the plastic hopper is much cheaper. We would gladly pay more for one of these after seeing how much time they save! The dark part is just some liquid in the applesauce, similar to what you see at the top when you open a jar from the store. A lot of items with canning appear to look that way while in the jar. You just have to give it a good stir when you are ready to use it.

[@OlTrailDog]

I've used my Squeezo mill to make crab apple fruit leather in addition to apple sauce.

[@jessrannachan]

My applesauce slightly browned on top after sealing. R they ok? Also the mixture settled down and some crevices opened up on the side of the jars after canning despite my pummeling with a plastic knife. R they ok for u think?

[@Jamie-b2e]

Set timer for how long?

[@run34fun]

I am somewhat new to canning. This is a really nice video. I followed the Ball canning book as well for my applesauce but is calls for 12 pounds of cored peeled and cut apples. I use the victorio strainer looks similar to what you used to do the apples. Do you weigh the apples to know how much lemon juice to use. Also, I bought the salsa attachment for the victorio and it was perfect. Thank you!!!

[@Aprons.Overalls]

Yes, I did weigh the apples after I cut them into 4ths. I didn't add the lemon juice until after running them through the strainer though. I probably ended up using a bit more than I needed but you can't taste the lemon juice at all.

[@mariaimre5199]

Yah, I can tell this is absolutely organic apples. No coated with toxic chemicals. The apple I could use is from the store, which is heavily sprayed with insecticide and than coated, so I need to peal them.

[@ALex-yv8xw]

On my 2nd adventure canning Applesauce next I canned Cherry tomatoes last month

[@sharonjosefik766]

How much lemon in a whole pot

[@lincolnmaniac]

well this is weird, i get your questions but your vids not in the subscription uploads. I do my applesauce a little different, peel and core the apples, the cores and peels i give to the neighbors chickens. mom says it's a cleaner product. I get seconds apples from the farmers market for 7 dollars for 25 pounds. we add cinnamon. I got a really good recipe for Pa Dutch apple butter if you want it.

[@Aprons.Overalls]

That's strange. We've had similar issues with some channels we subscribe to. All chickens agree - applesauce season is the best! ;)

[@lincolnmaniac]

i have a stove like that but mine don't have legs.

[@Aprons.Overalls]

It's a great little stove - especially if you don't have gas in your primary kitchen.

[@lincolnmaniac]

We do pints, it's just mom and myself.

No video just sound😮
