Crabapples are plentiful this year and many households struggle with what to do with the surplus. Larger crabapples work well in pies though skins remain. Methods include washing quartering and curing then soaking in cold water with ascorbic acid for fifteen minutes before draining and packing. Use one teaspoon of powdered ascorbic acid per cup of water.
This week’s Kinsmen 400 Club winner is Florence Schmellinger of Roblin for $50.00. The article outlines methods to prepare crabapples for freezing, including juice extraction, jelly, jam, and a crabapple catsup recipe, with detailed steps for freezing unbaked pies and canning juice.
Mr and Mrs Bob Barker marked their 25th anniversary with a August 5 1978 gathering at the Norman Kauk home. Relatives and friends attended a picnic supper and gifts included many silver items.
