Golden apple bread pudding historic dessert
American regional cooking, with
its long and flavorful tradition, is
enjoying the heights o f popularity
across the nation today. This
hearty, inviting Golden Apple Bread
Pudding comes to us from the an
nals of our colonial ancestors.
The naturally sweet flavor o f or
chard-fresh Golden Delicious
apples, raisins and fragrant spices,
added to this old-fashioned dessert,
turns a good thing into a really
memorable dish. Whether served
warm from the oven or made ahead
and cooled, this is sure to become a
favorite with all ages

apples from Washington State are
prized for cooking and baking, as
well as for enjoyment in salads and
o ut-of-hand snacks. They retain
Fishing is a favorite pastime o f
many Oregonians and the catch can
be preserved for enjoyment
throughout the year, notes Marilyn
Lunner, Clackamas County Exten
sion agent.
Because fish spoils rapidly, it
must be handled properly. Keep fish
cold, either on ice or in the refriger
ator.
Fish must be processed in a pres
sure canner to destroy bacteria that
can grow in low acid foods, adds
Carolyn Raab, Oregon State U n i
versity Extension foods and nutri
tion specialist.
Process raw fish in one-half pint
or pint jars for 100 minutes at 10
pounds pressure. Recommended
processing times have not been de
termined for quart jars, she points
out.
To freeze fish, wrap in moisture/
vapor-resistant paper. Water glaz
ing is recommended when freezing
large fish. This prevents oxidation
and freezer burn.
In water glazing, the fish is first
frozen unwrapped on a cookie
sheet. A fte r freezing, the fish is
dipped in water to form a protective
glaze and then refrozen. This pro
cess is continued until there is a
coating of ice around the fish, which
is then wrapped in freezer paper.
Smaller fish, such as smelt, are
sometimes frozen in a can or carton
filled with water. Freezing in water
helps prevent changes in quality.
When smoking fish, it ’s im port
ant to have the proper salt concen
tration and to reach the correct in
ternal
tem perature,

stresses. Smoked fish should be kept
in the refrigerator. For storage long
er than one or two weeks, the fish
should be canned or frozen. The
processing time for raw fish should
be used if it is canned.
When pickling fish, the proper
vinegar concentration is essential to
prevent the growth of harmful bac
teria. Pickled fish should be stored
in the refrigerator.

about canning, freezing, smoking or
pickling fish at home, contact the
