A healthy way to can pears. This can be used for people on restricted diets. Adapted from the Ball Blue Book of Canning. Ingredients:
1 -1 1/2 lb pear, per pint |
cinnamon stick |
unsweetened apple juice |
Directions:
1. Peel pears, and cut into halves and core.
2. Treat to prevent darkening(I submerge them in lemon juice and a little water).
3. Drain; rinse and drain again.
4. Cook pears in water one layer at a time until hot throughout.
5. Heat the apple juice just to a boil.
6. Pack hot pears into hot jars, leaving 1/2 headspace.
7. Place 1 cinnamon stick in each jar.
8. Ladle hot apple juice over pears, leaving 1/2 headspace.
9. Remove air bubbles(I do this with a knife).
10. Adjust two piece caps.
11. Process pints 20 minutes in a boiling water canner. Enjoy!
