Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Apple-Plum Butter

 

Ingredients

2 lb slightly underripe red plums quart, ered
2 lb tart apples, quartered
2 cup unsweetened, unfiltered apple juic, e
2 tsp ground cinnamon



 

Preparation

Combine plums, apples and juice in a heavy non-aluminum saucepan.
Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat, cover partially and
simmer 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook until
fruit is very tender, stirring stirring occasionally (20-30 minutes).

Cool slightly. Force fruit through food mill fitted with medium blade,
discarding peel and seeds. (or you can do as I do, seed and pit the
fruit BEFORE cooking. Then, when you reach this stage, all you have
to do is run it through a food processor) Return puree to pan, add
sugar and cinnamon. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring
constantly. (careful, mixture can scorch easily!) Reduce heat and
simmer briskly until butter is thick and glossy, stirring frequently
(about 40 minutes). Remove from heat, spoon into hot sterilized jars
and seal. Makes 3 pints jars or 6 - 8oz jars. Butter can be stored in
the fridge for up to 3 weeks, or processed in a boiling water bath
(15 minutes for pint jars or 10 minutes for 8 oz jars) and kept on a
cool dark shelf for up to 1 year.
