Note: Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 groovy root for canning data is the Blue Book direct to preserving. I highly recommend it for learning how to can. Here are some of my other favorite canning books in addition to supplies.



My thoughts:
I had some all of a abrupt real ripe nectarines that I had to practise something alongside in addition to hence I idea I'd endeavor to brand fruit butter instead of my green jam. I also picked upwardly a few pounds of what was labeled apricots in addition to hence I idea I'd role some of them likewise but when I started cutting them up, I realized they weren't truly apricots, they were apriums! They were modest similar an apricot, the pare was a fuzzy but the texture of the flesh was closer to that of a plum than an apricot. They were also reddish colored rather than well, apricot. I idea perhaps it was simply a multifariousness of apricot I hadn't seen earlier but I am certain it is an aprium. After doing some legwork, I'm pretty certain it is a Ruby Velvet Apricot (actually an aprium despite the name), a relative of the Black Velvet Apricot I made jam alongside terminal year. Luckily, I beloved apriums! Less fragile than apricots but simply equally sweetness in addition to juicy.

It made a lovely fruit butter, perfect to spread on sandwiches, swirl into yogurt in addition to dyad alongside cheese. It is thicker in addition to creamier than jam which I mean value makes it a chip to a greater extent than versatile.


Note: I position this butter upwardly earlier I went to bed in addition to canned it inward the belatedly afternoon. You of course of report tin practise it the reverse agency but the chopping/set upwardly was the perfect lilliputian projection to practise inward the eve in addition to who wants to tin the 2nd they wake up?
