It’s not Autumn without a little bit of applesauce but it’s been a crazy few months and we hadn’t put up our usual batch. Saturday though we got a chance to go by Barber Orchard Fruit Stand and got a peck of their local Stayman-Winesap apples. Yesterday we quartered and cored the apples and set them to simmer on the stove. Oh, the magical smell of apples cooking! Then we put them through the food mill before chilling the batch in the refrigerator overnight. This morning we reheated and seasoned the applesauce and got the canner up to temperature. Our yield was a mere seven pints. More would have been better but we have the promise of a little bit of the glory of applesauce in the middle of winter!
