How to Make Applesauce With a Food Strainer (Canning Recipe)
Making applesauce is so easy with a food strainer. You don't have to peel or core the apples, which saves so much time. You can either freeze or can the applesauce. I can it to save on freezer space.
This year, I turned about a bushel of apples into applesauce. The food strainer made quick work out of it. We just quartered the apples and cooked them until they were soft, and ran them through the food strainer.
A food strainer has a sieve in it that separates the pulp from the seeds and the peels. You just turn a crank and the applesauce comes out and the peels and seeds come out on the end of the tube. You can then compost the scraps or use them to make apple juice with a juicer.
You can freeze or can your applesauce. I canned mine in quarts for side dishes and to use in recipes. I have more tips like how to choose the best apples in the my how to make applesauce with a food strainer post, so be sure to click over for more information.
