Food Tip
Although conventinal advice has been to use plastic cutting boards instead of wooden ones, there is an opinion that wooden surfaces may actually be better at preventing bacterial growth than plastic surfaces, which seem to harbor them. Whether you choose wood or plastic, use separate boards for raw and cooked foods, and make sure to clean and sterilize after each use. To sanitize cutting boards, wash with warm, soapy water, and then wash again with a solution of 2 to 3 teaspoons of household bleach in one quart of warm water. Rinse with plain hot water

Apricot Preserves Directions

hot water

Cook apricots and sugar to setting point, continually skimming off
foam. Shortly before done, add lemon juice. Remove from heat. Stir in
'Preserving Aid' dissolved in hot water. Pour into hot, dry,
sterilized jars. Seal jars with cellophane the top of which has been
dipped in rum and smooth the overhang over the jars' necks, tying
with thin twine.

Makes 12 half-liter jars and one quarter-liter jar. (Between 13 and
14 1 pint jars).

"Einsiedehilfe" ('Preserving Aid') is sold (in Austria) in 15 gram
packages and consists of 65 percent sugar and 35 percent benzoic acid.

To test for setting point: Spoon a little of the conserve onto a
chilled saucer. Leave for a few minutes - then hold saucer upside
down. If conserve doesn't run, then setting point has been reached.
