- Directions
- Prepare the fruit by peeling, removing seeds or core, and cutting in small pieces. Berries will need stemming and washing only.
- Measure the fruit, put it in a saucepan, and add one-third as much water as there is fruit.
- Set the saucepan over the fire, and cook slowly from ten to twenty minutes, or until the fruit is tender.
- Add sugar in the proportion of 1 cup of sugar to 4 cups of fruit, and continue to cook until the sugar dissolves.
- Take the saucepan from the fire and let the fruit cool.
- Remarks
The proportion of sugar to fruit above mentioned is approximate only, and really depends upon the relative sweetness or sourness of the particular fruit that is being used.
