Trying this today. Looks good. i remember when they used to top jelly with melted wax.....
Linda Liddell...Hmmm...these days it might not be such a bad idea to have some of that wax on hand.
I recently purchased several boxes of that wax!! I remember my mama, aunts and grandmas using it. Some people still do. And with lids being harder to come by, wax may be our way to go.
I have that wax…made sure to buy some just in case. Nor cheap but definitely worth having in the pantry. I should get it out and try it. Thanks for the reminder. Gulf Wax in case anyone needs a brand name. Blessings
This jelly looks beautiful!! I’ll try the jelly next time I have some apple scraps!! Thank you for the video 💕
I made 14 quarts of apple syrup from apple peels and cores this last week. I made 2 batches of applesauce and saved the peels and cores. I covered them with water and simmered for 20 hours (you don’t have to simmer them that long at all… it just turned out that way at my house) ….. I then ran the apple mixture through a thick layer of cheese cloth (don’t squeeze the cloth at the end or your syrup will turn cloudy)…. I then put the apple liquid back on the stove in an uncovered pot and brought it back to a simmer and reduced it quite a bit…(several hours) …. I then added equal parts sugar (measure your apple water and sugar carefully) to the apple liquid and simmered it for 20 minutes, I do wish I would of simmered for a little longer as the syrup was a little thin, I think 30 minutes would be perfect!
It made 14 quarts and other than the cost of the sugar, it was totally free! It’s the best syrup you’ve ever tasted! Awesome on pancakes and waffles or in tea as a sweetener. It also makes an amazing dressing by adding equal parts of olive oil, apple syrup to equal parts apple cider vinegar…. Then add whatever spices you like! It’s delicious!
Happy canning everyone ❤️🙏
Trina...WOW thanks for that info, the syrup sounds wonderful! ...you must have had lots and lots of apples to get 14 quarts.
@@HerHomesteadSkills yes my mama has a few apple trees in her back yard. I made 16 pints of applesauce, in addition to all the syrup ….. I’d say I had roughly 15-20 lbs of apples…give or take, probably closer to 18… just going by prior experience, and by how many bags we filled.
The apple peels and cores filled up 3/4 the way of a normal, large stockpot…. Quite a bit!
I hope you are able to try it! It’s super easy and so yummy and the best part…..(besides it being super yummy) is that it’s free besides the sugar!!
In the past I have also saved my apple skins and cores slowly, over time, in a bag in the freezer. You can also add peach peels and pear peels and cores to that too! You could even throw in the tops of strawberries even! The options are limitless really!
💕❤️🙏
Trina...apple trees in the back yard!!...awesome that you don't let them just go to waste... It's still apple season here, so I might try some and I still want to make more apple vinegar with the scraps too..amazing...so apple scraps = Vinegar, Syrup and Jelly...such a useful fruit!!
Isn't knowledge awesome! I watch this and was filled with bittersweetness. I had lived most of my 68 years in the mountains of the mid-atlantic area of the US (zones 5-6). In 2014 we moved to Florida to care for my ailing mother. She hated the cold winters of the Appalachian mountains and had lived in Florida for about 20 years. There are wonderful advantages to living here, the best is you can grow food all year long. But there are some things that just do not grow well in the heat and humidity. apples & regular potatoes. That is the two things that I took for granted. Both were extremely easy to grow, use and store. And neither do well in Florida. (Mother passed on in 2017 and we have decided to stay put for the time being while the chaos rages on.)
Gidget Hale...I might miss my apples too... but ....you can grow Lemons, pineapples and..FIGS and I could plant my Bay Laurel in the ground there, and never have to uproot my rosemary and grow all sorts of stuff all year round...yup I live in the zone 5-6 area of Ontario.
@@HerHomesteadSkills there is always a trade off isn't there. I didn't realize how many apples & white potatoes we ate on a regular bases until we moved down here 🤣 the up side, is sweet potatoes have no "season" down here. They will take over the yard if you don't harvest them. Dig a tuber up, cut off a piece of the vine, stick it back in the sandy ground, in a few months you get another sweet potato. One of our neighbors has been digging sweet potatoes continually out of the same patch for 10yrs!
Yaaaaay!!!!
I brought home buckets of apples. We are about to begin processing cider and sauce and butter.
I work at a garden nursery we have a huge 100 ft tall apple tree .
I have been giving them to customers by bucket loads to feed the horses and mules and donkeys and hogs and every other animal that had been rescued in our area.
Now we just closed for the season and there's still enough to feed a small army up on that tree.
I went out and bought a couple of old antique applesauce grinders and I got my Apple peeler from a long time ago but there's just so much..I needed a couple ideas.
We are Dixie fire survivors and there is no food anywhere our forest are annihilated and the bears are right at my back door.. We now dump them out in the burn scar to lead them back out into the forest. The deer and the rabbits and every now and then I see a raven fly over my cabin carrying an apple and it warms my heart knowing where it came from LOL
I'm excited to try this . 😃😊😃🌻🌻🌻I had alot of coffee today! I bet you could tell 🌻😃🌻😊😆
ventura sunflower...My goodness, I can't even image what that devastation is like, never having experienced it close up!...Yes so much you can do with those apples...enjoy!
Love this! You are soo good at this! I'm still trying to learn canning.
Thank you for teaching me this, im new to your channel. Really enjoyed learning.
Wow this is great can’t wait till my dwarf apple trees start producing so I can make apple jelly and apple butter
Danielle Terry...and dehydrated apple chips, and apple vinegar...So many ways to use apples...It's nice to have your own apple trees!!!!
I have half bushel of apples to process, starting today. I've usually boil lightly all scraps then let them cool in frig. Once that's done I strain scaps into my juicer machine and make applesauce and juice that's left gets canned for drinking juice, might need to try some jelly this time around. I never add sugar, but for the jelly I'd probably do 1/3cup per 2 cups juice. Not a big fan of sugar. Cinnamon would probably taste good too! Thanks for your work,and tutorials
tiredof it...No waste!!!! That is awesome. Thanks for watching!
Just love watching your videos
Thank You!
What a great idea! Your apple scrap jelly looks delicious😋
All Sorts...Thank You, yes it's nice to make something delicious from something you used to throw away!
thank you for the sped up process...😊👍🏻
Looks so good! I'm going to make this! Thanks for sharing ☺️💖
Craving Crochet...You’re welcome 😊
Thank you. Take care.
Definitely going to try this. My brother in law loves apple jelly, and he’s had a hard time finding it lately.
MamasaurusRex5...easy to make, and hard to find...hmmm!
I’m going to try this! I think I can put the apple scraps in the compost bin after they are no longer needed.
I like your recipe as the other ones said 1 cup sugar per 1 cup juice. I'm definitely going to try this one. Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
How convenient to make something from nothing Toni. These would make wonderful gifts 🎁 with Christmas right around the corner. I may have to try this recipe.
Penny Grant...yes they are pretty and Christmas gifts? Great Idea !!!
Buitafull Royal Albert dinner service, England's finest!
Thank You!...My appreciation came from Mark's mother, and hers from her mother ..
How wonderful! I don't can yet but hope to soon. I just processed some apples into applesauce and chips. I saved a few peels to dehydrate to make powder. Thank you for the information.
Pat Harrington...Processing apples is a great way to start..then jams...then....we get a little more adventuresome! Enjoy the process!
Thank you again!
How did I miss this one! I'm making applesauce today. I usually give the apple scraps to the birds and squirrels but this seems like something I'd like to try. No pectin, eh? Good video.
Hope you enjoy it !
Apple scrap jelly is amazing I just made some recently!
mamma Kat...yes..awesome taste and gorgeous color too!
@@HerHomesteadSkills very!!! Definitely worth making!!!
8 1/2 pints of applesauce and 20 cups of apple scrap coming to a boil right now. I tossed in a few dried hibiscus flowers for an even darker red...plus I love the flavor with apple! Fingers crossed it gels!
Sounds great!
I have made quite a bit of apple jelly this season using your video so thank you very much. Would you be willing to share the original recipe you used? Thanks
Great video Tony! Can't wait to try this. Apple jelly is my favorite w/peanut butter on a sandwich! Thanks for sharing.
I'm just curious tho... what do you use in the bottom of a regular pot like the one you used today? All I've ever come up with is connecting old/unusable rings to fit the pot. Just curious if you have a different idea. Thanks in advance. 😁
Sandi Jammes...I have a number of different size steamer racks that I purchased from the (sigh!) Asian Market a while back and use those at the bottom of the pot,....In a pinch or if I didn't have those, I would do and have done what my mother did, and that was to put a face cloth on the bottom...That too works beautifully !!
I'm making jelly from scraps, golden delicious, right now, I found your video to see where I went wrong on the fist batch it was a fail. I made applesauce from 3 bushels, and dried some the old fashion way outdoors, I love the old time way something about the way they smell and it make delicious fried pies. Kinda cool getting 2 for 1. My fail was from doubling the recipe . A big no no .
diane muenzner...well my last batch of apple scrap vinegar failed too....I will be trying again!!
@@HerHomesteadSkills I finally have success, I'm sure you will too!
that came out a beautiful colour. BTW why and how did you know that you needed more lemon juice?
it wasn't setting...the lemon juice helps!
I jarred up 15 quarts of apple pie filling today, so I thought I'd try the jelly. I appreciate that you had a more precise method with a rule of thumb for measuring. Well I cheated anyway and got out the pectin. I don't know if it will set better after it cools in the jars or not. I will just have to wait and see. Do you use a pressure canner at all? I do both water bath and pressure canning.
DeAnna Martin...Yes I do use both water-bath canners and pressure canners, but just water-bath for anything "apple"...
Good morning Toni, you said you needed to add more lemon juice. Can you elaborate on why it was needed and what revealed itself to make you determine that?
Roxanne Sears...perhaps just my impatience, it seemed to take a long time to set...and lemon juice helps jams and in this case, apple jelly to set... It likely would have set just fine if I had allowed it to simmer for a longer period of time.
Thanks for the explanation. I didn't realize lemon juice was a factor in setting jams/jellies. I learned something new today. Thank you!!
How does your peeler work so smooth? I got one, but it just digs into the apple and grinds away in the same spot. not move down the apple.
sometimes adjusting the blade depth helps!
I love your strainer. Where did you purchase it?
OMG...I had to review the video to see which strainer you were referring too, ( I own 5, as well as various mesh strainers ) and it was the smaller stainless steel one with a handle...I must apologize...I think I have had that one ( and all of them ) for over 30 years and have no idea where I purchased it!
Hi, I found your video, because I'm trying to watch all the apple peel jelly videos I can find. Can you tell me how long you cooked it for after adding the sugar? Did it come to a rolling boil for x-amt of minutes? Thanks,and I loved your red jelly!
Jessica, I don't recall exactly how long I cooked it, but it was until it thickened up.
From what I've read you have to bring it up to 220 degrees on a candy thermometer
Hi Toni-What brand is your peeler? I have a clamp on one-not working so good , need a new one. Plus-it turns black when I peel the apples, weird. Want a good one. Now I want to make this too.
eagle 4 God...the peeler I use is made by Paderno.
Mine does the exact same thing. It turns everything black if it touches the metal and it won’t stay put without me holding it down
Tastes so good but I did not realize it is basically concentrate of sugar flavored with apple 🙂🍏🍏
LOL!!!
Lol. That's what jelly is!
What was the head space please
a half inch will suffice on all jams and jellies!
About how many apples did you start with?
Teresa Webster...without reviewing the video to count, I would suggest..in the range of 15 apples.
Why did you have to add more lemon juice? How did you know that you needed to? Anna In Ohio
buckeyedav1...ok, I didn't need to add the lemon juice at all...it was my own impatience, the jelly wasn't setting fast enough...It would have set just fine had I left it longer, because apples have plenty of natural pectin...but the lemon juice did help to set the jelly.
@@HerHomesteadSkills Thank you I always add lemon juice to my fruits mainly to keep them from turning brown thanks for the quick response. I have my scrap apples going in the crock pot.. I have looked at several you tubers on this and looked in the comments to see if anyone else used a crock pot instead of stirring on the stove. Hopefully mine turns out I don't know why it wouldn't. Anna In Ohio
My jelly didn't set, now what?
There are a number of things you can do 1) just cook it longer 2) bring it to a boil and add lemon juice 3) bring it to a boil and add corn starch..
