Ingredients:
2 quarts water
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon non-iodized salt
5 tart cooking apples, cored
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup raisins
1 (1 3/4-ounce) package powdered fruit pectin
5 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
1. Combine water, vinegar, and salt in a large glass mixing bowl. Mince apples, and add to water mixture; soak 2 to 5 minutes. Drain apples; rinse well.
2. Combine apples, 1/22 cup water, lemon juice, raisins, and powdered fruit pectin in a flat-bottomed kettle; stir well. Quickly bring mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Add sugar, and return to a rolling boil for 1 additional minute, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Stir in pecans. Remove from heat, and skim off foam with a cold metal spoon.
