Homemade Mincemeat Recipe

Mincemeat:

2 large Golden Delicious apples, peeled and grated

1 -12 ounce (1 1/2 cups) (340 grams) can frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed

1 cup (85 grams) dried apples, chopped

3/4 cup (120 grams) dark raisins

3/4 cup (120 grams) golden raisins

3/4 cup (90 grams) dried currants

3/4 cup (105 grams) dried cranberries

2/3 cup (120 grams) mixed candied peel

1/3 cup (60 grams) candied lemon peel

1/2 cup (105 grams) dark brown sugar

1/2 cup (120 ml) dark rum

1/2 cup (120 ml) brandy or cognac

4 tablespoons (57 grams) unsalted butter

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1/4 teaspoon salt



Mincemeat: Place all the ingredients in a large Dutch oven, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the mincemeat, stirring often, for about 25-30 minutes, or until the liquid is almost evaporated. Transfer the mincemeat to a large bowl and let it cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator, at least overnight, or up to a month. Note: If storing longer than a week, stir in a little rum or brandy (about 1/4 cup (60 ml)) every week.

Makes about 6 cups of Mincemeat.
