No grape butter recipes here--we make grape jelly and wine.
I am making salsa today.

I'd love a good wine but my hubby and stepson are 20 years sober, so no wine for us. How about a grape salsa? I've got bushels of grapes! H
Planted 4 doz tomatoes and haven't even gotten enough for a BLT. Last year we did 40 pts salsa, 25 qts spaghetti sauce, 100 qts whole tomatoes and a bunch of juice. This year the garden is a dud.
I have bushels of concord grapes again this year. Still have scads of jelly from last year. My stepson made aces trial jars of grape butter last year, but darned if I can find the recipe. It is thick like apple butter, very grapes and far better than plain old grape jelly. Anybody have a recipe. I made grape juice last year, but it was too sweet. Any concord grape recipes for canning would be appreciated immensely!
I've got my big Nesco roaster and another big CP full of apple slices right now, making apple butter. Not sure what we'll do with it all!
Would love to trade for grapes....
Umm...you do not have my address, right???
Yes I do. Expect your 2 gallon jar of apple butter to greet you when you get back!
Oh no!!!...Ya know, I do have access to bushels of cider apples...
I hope to not look at another apple for awhile.
A friend has a cider press and a small orchard, we spent a very long day making cider a few years ago, not something I'd want to do on a regular basis! Lots of muscle involved.
