75 here. Male. Actually learned to cook obviously straightforward stuff: eggs, oatmeal, hamburger, steak, but so much lost. Ozark childhood on Grade A dairy. Can obviously cook beans and black eyed peas. But my collard beans suck. Whereas the older lady dietician at my grade school/high school in Green Forest was a great cook. HER black eyed peas and collards were to die for! And they tasted fresher, even out of local season, than any I’ve had since. Also I suppose she could get a lot of Ag Dept. surplus foods. The education was severely lacking, but perhaps partly by accident, the food was excellent, although no doubt prepared under trying restraints.

What a wonderfully frugal trick! Thank you. I'm glad Corrie is helping & learning 1st hand how to do all the preserving -- good memories and knowledge.

Canning is a lot of work but it's worth the effort! You can't buy jelly in a store that is as good as this homemade delight. When the canning is complete, I love to just gaze on the beauty of newly filled jars and think about how good that jelly in going to taste on a hot biscuit in the dead of winter! Good job, girls!

Brings back great memories. When I was a kid(9 or 10), we had a bunch of family visiting. There were about 12-15 people in the basement playing pool. My grandmother had been frying apple pies and had a whole platter of them-There had to be at least 30-40 pies on this platter. She said "Take em some pies, son" so I took the whole platter to the basement and 5 mins later brought back an empty platter. "Lord have mercy. They done ate all my pies" 😀

Watching you two in the kitchen takes me back to when I was a kid picking apples off my grandmother's apple trees and bringing them into her kitchen to be peeled and cored (all by hand of course).

We've been dehydrating it with our chard & making powdered greens, adds more nutrition to our soups, stews, spaghetti sauce even scrambled eggs. Truly enjoy all your videos!

Thank you. My grandmother (Mom), taught her girls to to that, they only had 3 girls. I am the oldest grandson and I am the only one that cans in the family. Thanks for the memories. Love my peeler and corer!!! God Bless and stay safe.

My Louisianna Grandma would peel, slice and sugar a whole wash tub full of pears and cover them with a cloth and set them on the kitchen table overnight, for making pear preserves the next day. She went to bed before dark, so we would crawl into the kitchen very quietly and eat some of the pears. She heard us on our second trip, because her bedroom was off the kitchen, and yelled at us to stop eating the pears LOL But I loved their crunchy raw sweetness. Great Memory 🥰

Oh wow, I never knew you could use the peelings like this! My favorite jelly is apple, next to strawberry preserves.. I love apples fixed in most ways possible, thanks for sharing!!! Very frugal indeed..

Love seeing you in the kitchen with your sweet daughters. I’ve never made apple jelly. Thank you for showing us!

When I was in Murphy NC my cousin took me to Mercer’s orchard in blue ridge and picked apple for the first time and took them home to Florida they were the best apples ever..

I'm so glad I ran across your blog, I just love it ! I'm from Indiana but parents came from Kentucky in the early 50's ..you cook so much like my momma taught us. Also I so enjoy your reading, ordered the books but just put them on my book shelf because I love hearing you read. Thank you !!

I've never had apple jelly. Mother made strawberry and rhubarb. We weren't massive jelly eaters, but I do hanker a little blackberry jam with biscuits.

You drying apples made me think of Grandma. She would dry apples on a sheet of tin covered in news paper that she would lay across Grandpa's wheel barrow. She would roll it out in the morning and roll it under the shelter in the evening or if it was going to rain. She would dry a dish pan full at a time.

I have that same apple peeler. Goes along with the many years of memories with my kids and grandkids going apple picking, getting fresh apple cider and apple cider donuts, and spending hours making applesauce and apple butter. In fact I have a bushel in my kitchen waiting to be done. ❤️

My late husband grew up eating apple jelly on peanut butter sandwiches. My son (27) prefers it also. I prefer grape with peanut butter. But I do love apple jelly on toast. I made apple jelly from store-bought juice once. My grandma used to dry apples on window screens on top of the roof, hood and trunk of her car. She used them to make "apple puffs," which is what we called fried pies in southern VA. My late husband's family calls them "jacks." They're from over the state line in NC.

Thanks for sharing this! Growing up in the Appalachian mountains, we always used everything we could , we did not waste anything....we did the same thing with apple peels, pear , peaches , etc.....always frugal .....love the color of your jelly ! I love apple jelly on toast or biscuits with butter and a glass of milk to wash it down....appreciate y'all....God bless.....🙏❤

I learned to make jelly from fruit scraps from my great-great aunt - she added a bag of cinnamon red hot candies to every batch of apple butter and cut back the sugar - it made a beautiful color and spiced it just right! I do the same when I can find cinnamon red hots - they're hard to find these days.

Boy, that "apple lathe" is one cool gadget! Apple peels are the part of the fruit with the highest concetration of vitamins and other goodies, including dietary fibers - in addition to the cores - so using these two components is a very good way of using the entire fruit so nothing goes to waste.

Awesome to see mom and daughter working together ! I’m going to try this it looked great!

Apple jelly is my fave. Mom used to make just like this.

When my 7 kids were still at home it hit me once that I was actually making flavored sugar because most jams and jellies call for more cups of sugar than fruit. So I knew my jams and jellies would be runny but I added less sugar, less than half and made fruit syrups for pancakes and ice cream. Your jelly looks so pretty. 🍎

My mom taught me the same about making jelly from the scraps with both apple and peach. Seems like I remember her saying it was something they come up with during the depression era.

Man, y'all are some resourceful people. You remind me of the people that lived through the depression because they saved everything used everything and I think that is absolutely awesome. Now I know how to make apple jelly from peelings and cores. Good job keep up the good work

I'm taken back to watching mom and sisters working on apples, peaches, blackberries, tomatoes, beans, and anything we could get. As the sisters, 5 of them married off things slowed down. I'd help her peal apples, but they were mostly cooked for pies. Canning seamed to stop. I didn't learn to can for myself until I was close to 40 years old.

My wife and I canned 12 quarts of tomato sauce to day and several of the jars we used were Atlas jars that belonged to my grandmother who passed away in 1961 at 83 years old. Who knows how long she used those jars or what she put up in them,and I’m still using them today at 65 years old. It makes me feel good to still be using them today. It made my day seeing you and your daughter using those old Atlas jars. Just think, someday your grandchild will still be using your old Atlas jars putting up delicious food for their children.

We live in an area of Missouri where there are apple orchards near us and we used to buy a couple of bushels for making ape butter, pies and of course jelly. I also always made a blue I'm cake on apple days. Then I would use the juice from the canned ums and from the apple peelings and make apple plum jelly. My 46 year old son told me a week or so ago he sure missed that jelly. It's his favorite!

How many times have I heard "it's too much work to do all this when you can just go buy it in the store".... it's not work to me, it's a joy to be in the kitchen with my Mama (and my Mamaw's when they were alive) talking and laughing and reminiscing....this is when I have my sweetest memories. I can't wait till all our apple trees are ready to start putting by. We can, dry and make lots of jelly from the juice, too! Mama makes the BEST raspberry and apple jelly ever (3 parts apple juice and 1 part raspberry juice and we cut the sugar a bit because the jelly is a bit sweet with the regular ratio). We are frying up some June apples now and the Pippin and Old fashioned golden delicious will be SO good this year. The birds have really done a number on our cherry trees but we got several gallons of raspberries! Soon it'll be blackberry cobbler time!!

I have an apple corer/peeler like that. It's fun to use. But my only good work surface is a wooden bread board, so I have the same problem with the suction cup not holding. Here's a trick: stick it to a baking sheet. Then you don't have to hold it down and the rim of the baking sheet catches any little bits or juice. Makes cleanup easier. I never thought of getting juice from the scraps. What a great frugal tip! I'll bet the chickens are still happy to get the mashed up part that's left. It seems like it might work with pears, too.

We almost cried when the last jar of that jelly was gone because it was so delicious…why I’ve never made more is a definite mystery to me…I guess because I didn’t have a large enough amount of apples and didn’t think those from the grocery store would be good for jelly…I also want to try peach. Thanks so much for sharing the making of jelly from the peels and cores!!!

Yall inspired me this morning, Tipper! I had some pink ladies that needed used up. I made a homemade apple crisp, and dried some. With the peels and cores, I put up 12 half-pints of jelly.
