PICKLED CRABAPPLES



Pickled Crabapples image

Found this on a hand written card in Mom's collection. I remember her making these. She loved them but only made them a couple of times because she could never find the right apples. A good sound CRAB apple is what is needed for this It makes an interesting addition to a relish tray. The smell of this on the stove is a reminder of "home" for me. Yes, time consuming but worth it.

Time P2DT4h

Yield 5 pints, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 quarts crabapples (may vary)
1 quart vinegar
1 cup water
1 quart sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon clove
1 teaspoon mace
1 teaspoon allspice

Steps:

  • When cool, add apples and heat slowly, being careful NOT to burst the fruit. (If I remember right bring to just a good "steam").
  • Remove from heat and allow to stand overnight.

  • Put on cap, screwing the band tight.

OLD FASHIONED SPICED CRAB APPLES



Old Fashioned Spiced Crab Apples image

Old Fashioned Spiced Crab Apples is a vintage pickled apple recipe that makes the perfect side to any fall meal and is a must at Thanksgiving!

Provided by Sue Moran

Categories     condiment     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 6

a quart of crab apples
1 3/4 cups cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups water
3 cups sugar
1 Tbsp cardamom pods
1 tsp whole cloves

Steps:

  • Wash the apples well, and leave the stems intact.
  • Gently prick the apples all over with a fork or the tip of a small sharp knife. This is so that they don't burst as they cook.
  • Combine the vinegar, water, and sugar in a pot.
  • Roll over the cardamom pods with a rolling pin or the side of a wine bottle to gently crack them open. Don't lose any of the black seeds. Add the cardamom (seeds and pods) and cloves to the pan and bring to a boil
  • Turn down the heat and add the apples to the pot. Simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of your apples. Use your judgement, you don't want the apples to get soft and mushy.
  • Carefully remove the apples from the hot liquid and pack them into your jar or jars.
  • Strain the pickling liquid and then pour into the jars, completely immersing the fruit. Let cool and then cap and refrigerate.
  • The apples can be canned, as well, for longer storage.
  • Makes 1 quart

HOW TO USE CRABAPPLES: 15 DELICIOUS RECIPES YOU'VE ...

From ruralsprout.com
Estimated Reading Time 5 mins
  • Homemade Crabapple Pectin. Pectin is a starch that occurs in the walls of fruits and vegetables, giving them their firmness and structure. Easily squishable berries contain very little pectin, while much harder to squash apples are rich in it.
  • Crabapple Jelly. You won’t need any additional pectin for this toast topper recipe – just three pounds of crabapples, sugar, and water. Get the recipe here.
  • Crabapple Juice. For apple juice of a different variety, this recipe is a great way to use up your crabapples – and it’s delicious too! You’ll need about a gallon tub of crabs, a little cream of tartar, and sugar to taste, to make this simple and easy juice.
  • Crabapple Liqueur. To make a headier mixture, fill a jar with chopped crabapples and add sugar and 1 ½ cups of vodka. Store out of sunlight on its side and rotate the jar every day for two weeks.
  • Crabapple Wine. For homemade fruit wine aficionados, this recipe is a blend of crabapples, raisins, and lemon juice – ready to be bottled and enjoyed in about two months.
  • Crabapple Sauce. Served over pork or turkey, this two ingredient sauce calls for six pounds of crabapples and sweetener. Simply boil the crabs, drain, and mash.
  • Crabapple Butter. Take your crabapple sauce to the next level by adding cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Served warm, crabapple butter is great on toast, sandwiches, ice cream, and yogurt.
  • Crabapple Fruit Leather. Crabapple fruit leather is made by processing the crabs into puree and spreading them on sheets to be dried in a dehydrator or oven.
  • Spicy Pickled Crabapples. A super easy way to preserve the harvest, these crabapples are pickled in cider vinegar and spiced with cloves and cardamom.
  • Crabapple Syrup. Crabapple syrup is a sweet treat that can be drizzled over pancakes, waffles, ice cream, and other desserts. Get the recipe here.

From foragerchef.com
  • In a large saute pan, (I used a 10in size). Heat 2 tbsp of the grapeseed oil or lard until lightly smoking. Season the pork liberally with salt and pepper, then sear in the pan for 2-3 minutes on each side until well browned. By now the pork should be medium rare. If you like your pork a little less done, (trichinosis is a thing of the past) allow the pork to rest in a warm place while you cook the cauliflower and make the sauce. If you want your pork more done, place it in the oven on a cookie sheet lined with a roasting rack and cook for 10 minutes more.
  • Begin making the crab apple sauce by deglazing the pan with 3 tbsp of calvados, scraping up the browned bits. Add the crab apples, their pickling juice, and the stock, and reduce on medium high heat until the sauce is reduced by half and is thickened enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Reserve the sauce until it's time to plate.
  • To cook the cauliflower, heat a large saute pan with 3 tbsp of the grapeseed oil or lard until lightly smoking. Add the cauliflower, making sure that the slices don't overlap in the pan. Season the cauliflower with salt and pepper and Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the cauliflower is golden brown and caramelized.
