Time P2DT4h Yield 5 pints, 4-6 serving(s) Number Of Ingredients 8 Steps:
Make a spiced syrup by heating together the vinegar, water, sugar and the spices loosely tied in a bag. This should be enough syrup for about 5 pints. Remove from heat and allow to cool. 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. Next morning, remove the spice bag and pack apples without reheating, into clean jars and fill to within 1/2 inch of the top of jar with syrup. Put on cap, screwing the band tight. Process in water bath at simmering temperature (180 degrees F) for 20 minutes.
