Fruit Fresh (absorbic acid) - looking for...
Hi all,
On a quest for and need Fruit Fresh (absorbic acid), a substitute or opinion for the recipe below. The problem is I don't know where to begin... drugstore, hardware store. Most neighbors have no idea - so I'll ask my neighbors online. Any help would be appreciated. Ken Brooklyn, New York ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Decadent Banana Split Conserve Recipe By : Jeanne, CCC Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Conserves Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 cups thoroughly mashed bananas 5 cups granulated sugar 2/3 cup bottled lemon juice 1 teaspoon Fruit Fresh (absorbic acid) 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 package liquid pectin -- (3 ounce) 3 tablespoons pure cocoa powder 2 tablespoons light rum or rum extract 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts In a medium stockpot, combine the mashed bananas, lemon juice and Fruit Fresh. Gradually add in the sugar, cocoa powder and butter. Over medium heat, heat the mixture stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly so it will not scorch. Stir in the liquid pectin and return to a full rolling boil for 1 more minute, stirring constantly. Skim off any foam. Remove the stockpot from the heat, stir in the walnuts and the rum. Ladle into sterilized jars leaving 1/4 inch head space. Wipe rims. Cap and seal. Process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes for half-pints or 15 minutes for pints. Yields 9 to 10 half-pints. |

Vitamin C tablets. Grind up a 500 mg tablet and mix with a little
sugar. But I don't think your recipe really needs ascorbic acid because of all the lemon juice. (I'd substitute fresh lime juice) Best regards, Bob Ken Stepien wrote: > Hi all, > On a quest for and need Fruit Fresh (absorbic acid), a substitute or > opinion for the recipe below. > The problem is I don't know where to begin... drugstore, hardware store. > Most neighbors have no idea - so I'll ask my neighbors online. > Any help would be appreciated. > Ken > Brooklyn, New York > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > Decadent Banana Split Conserve > > Recipe By : Jeanne, CCC > Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00 > Categories : Conserves > > Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method > -------- ------------ -------------------------------- > 4 cups thoroughly mashed bananas > 5 cups granulated sugar > 2/3 cup bottled lemon juice > 1 teaspoon Fruit Fresh (absorbic acid) > 1 tablespoon unsalted butter > 1 package liquid pectin -- (3 ounce) > 3 tablespoons pure cocoa powder > 2 tablespoons light rum or rum extract > 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts > > In a medium stockpot, combine the mashed bananas, lemon juice and Fruit > Fresh.

In most other areas I've lived I could always find Fruit Fresh in the supermarket, usually in the same area where they stock Sure-Jel and other canning items. Most good "old-fashioned" hardware stores that have a section devoted to canning supplies (jars, canning vessels, etc.) also carry Fruit Fresh and pectin.
