Nectarines Found to Be Among Best
In Flavor of Little Known Fruits
By MaxJne Buren
Woman's Editor. The Statesman
Mr special fruit and vegetable consultant is worried about
housewives not knowing more of
This fruit which looks like a
like a nectarine, may be either
fruit isn't new, but has never been
overly popular because its not
been publicized. He tells me
there's quite a loss each year in
the store because people do not
know about them and sale is slow.
I took some home, stewed up a
few to see how they tasted cooked
and found them very pleasing.
More like a plum in flavor than
peach. I'd known about their
flavor raw before, as they are not
new introduction.
They would be canned with me
dium syrup and treated like plums,
processed 10 minutes hot pack or
20 minutes cold pack. Drop into
boiling syrup (one part sugar io
one of water is average). Remove
pan from stove after two minutes,
let stand 20 to 30 minutes, pack in
hot jars, cover with syrup and
process 10 minutes. Any extra syr
up may be used for beverages.
According to the price per bas
ket, nectarines should be lower
per lug than any of tne fruits
right now, that is if the grocer
stocks that many.
Any of the many kinds of plum
which are available now make for
variety in the canning cupboard.
Some of the red plums, like Sat-
suma, and egg plums are grand
in flavor and make attractive look
ing sauce. They're good for eating
raw, too.
Just to bolster up the memory
of my readers, let me repeat time
for canning apricots. Recommen
dations are for hot pack, sim
mered 4 to 8 minutes or so in me
dium syrup and then putting in
ars and processing in hot water
bath for 15 minutes. C
