RECIPES FOR CANNING Easy Autumn Apple Cider.
Not only is this recipe a simple beverage, but just a half cup may give beef stew, roasted beets, or pumpkin soup a kick.
Canner with a boiling-water bath; six quart-sized jars
During apple season, buy fresh cider at the mill. I like to process this in 6 quart-size jars at once, which is equivalent to 112 gallons.
Filter it with a jelly bag that has been moistened. Please read pages 182-84 to learn more about jelly bags.
The cider should be heated in a big kettle to a soft simmer, not a hard boil.
Fill hot, clean jars with the mixture, allowing 1/2 inch of headspace. Possibly packaged in quarts or pints.
Cover, seal, and boil for 30 minutes in a water bath canner.
If required, make altitude adjustments.

Use a hand-turned grinder or pulsing movements in a food processor to roughly ground the veggies. The veggies may alternatively be chopped by hand. Salt them with a little salt.
To enable the veggies to “sweat,” cover and leave out for at least 8 to 12 hours.
After the veggies have been rinsed and drained, they are combined with 2 14 cups of vinegar, sugar, celery seed, mustard, and pepper. Incorporate the pickling spice wrapped in cheesecloth.
Place the spices, veggies, and liquid in a nonreactive pot. 30 minutes of simmering at low heat are required. In a food processor, mix the eggs, flour, and the remaining vinegar. Add the oil in droplets in a steady stream while the engine is running until the mixture is thick and smooth.
Take out the spice bag from the veggies and add the egg mixture after stirring.
Cook at a low simmer for a while until thick. It ought should take 5 to 10 minutes.
Ladle, allowing a headspace of 12 inch, into hot, clean jars.

- 1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon pickling salt
- 10 big leaves of basil
Place the eggplant rings on a greased baking sheet and broil them for 15-20 minutes, rotating them once, until they are gently browned.
Place the entire bell peppers on a baking sheet and broil them for 30 minutes, 4 inches from the heat, or until they are soft and collapsed. While they are cooking, turn them periodically.
To contain the heat, put the peppers in a paper shopping bag. Peel off the outer skins after they have cooled, then quarter them and take the seeds out.
Heat the vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes, oil, and garlic. For 4-5 minutes, simmer.
Layer eggplant, peppers, and basil in two heated, clean pint jars in an alternate fashion.
The ingredients are layered in the jars.
Add the heated oil mixture on top, leaving a headspace of 12 inch. Eliminate any remaining oil from the jar’s rim.
Put the container in a boiling-water canner for 20 minutes and cap, seal, and process. Before using, let the flavors 10 to 14 days to meld.
2 pints (eight 1-cup servings) of food were produced.
