Steaming Apples for Juice, Apple Butter from Applesauce, Freeze Drying , Canning Apple Pie Filling

This video came from several weeks worth of work. All the way from the day I picked the apples to the several days of processing them in multiple ways. First I picked the apples and gave any bad ones to the chickens. They enjoyed that! The remainder ended up on my countertop waiting to be washed and made into something delicious! I dug out the smallest apples first. I thought they would be the best for the steam juicer. And once steamed, the apples were nice and soft, so in the food mill they went. The end product was a no-sugar, slightly tart applesauce. That became a deliciously sweet apple butter with all the flavors of fall. A few days later I came back to that countertop to survey the apples and picked out any that may have blemishes or uneven. Leaving the Very nicest looking ones for another day. These apples became chunks. The nice pieces went into the freeze dryer to become a snack for another day. I do love freeze dried apples! Finally... the day came when I could tackle the project I really wanted to do.. Pie Filling! Nothing like a homemade pie filling to use other than for pies, lol! Hope you enjoy the "All things Apple" video!
