[Ag-eq] Apples

[Susan Roe]

Hi Nella,

We do our apple butter in the crock pot and then can it.  We also do the 
apple slices in the dehydrator and then put them in canning jars.  There is 
a method called oven canning where you can put dried foods in canning jars, 
put them in a low temp oven for so long and then put canning lids and rings 
on them as soon as you remove them from the oven and they will seel.

We have two round dehydrators with 5 racks each.  I just did both machines 
full of peach slices, but I don't think they are going to make it from the 
zip lock bag to the canning jars this year.  Somehow, they seem to be taking 
a side trip to our tummies instead.  LOL
