Title: APPLE BUTTER
Categories: Jelly/jam, Fruits, Crockpot
Yield: 5 1/2 jars

14 Apples; quartered, leave
-skin on. I use Granny Smith
-any tart firm apple will do
2 c Cider; sweet
2 c Sugar; to taste
1 1/2 ts Cinnamon; more or less
Lemon juice; optional
-use if apples are too sweet

1 use my large Crockpot for this recipe.

1. Combine all ingredients and cook in high stirring
occasionally for the first hour or so; covered. Then
remove cover and turn down to low and stir
occasionally. This is a slow process since you have
NOT precooked the apples. Will take 24 to 36 hours.
But you have NEVER tasted anything so good. I think it
is much better this way then precooking the apples. I
usually stir in the skin every hour or so but this is
not critical. You can cook during the night but I
usually do not.

2. If the skin on your apples refuses to break down,
use a hand held blender and zap it a few times. If you
don’t have one of these wonderful gadgets, then zap in
the food processor.

CANNING: You can process this in a water bath but I
usually just keep it in the fridge; it never lasts
that long. NOTE: The skin is the substance that makes
it thick along with the evaporation of the water.
Please try it with the lid of the Crockpot off. It is
better than MUSSELMANS. The grandgirls say the house
smells like Apple Pie and they love it with Peanut
Butter on bread or over cottage cheese. We always
used to bring that back from PA. Now I think I’ll take
this down. I hope you all enjoy!!!

Bring 6 quarts water to boil and add 2 tablespoons salt.

Using a meat mallet or cleaver blade, pat each lamb piece until it’s 1/16-inch
thick. Onto each lamb piece place one slice of prosciutto and 1 piece of
cheese. Mix rosemary, mint and 2 tablespoons parsley and divide among 8 pieces
of lamb. Season with salt and pepper and roll like a burrito to form a little
package. Tie each with 2 pieces of butcher twine.

In a heavy bottom pot, heat olive oil until smoking. Brown lamb pieces 4
at a time until golden brown all over and remove. Add onions and garlic and
cook until softened and lightly browned. Add chilies, red wine and tomato
sauce and bring to a boil. Lower heat to medium and place meat in pan with
sauces, submerging the meat halfway. Simmer uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes,
or until lamb is fork tender.

Put orecchiette into boiling water and cook until al dente, about 6 to 7
minutes, and drain.

Remove meat from sauce and toss orecchiette into sauce. Remove strings from
