Boiled Cider

Fresh, sweet cider made from cultivated fruit is the best for boiling. Set the cider over the fire in a large, broad, porcelain-lined dish and let boil until it is reduced one half. Skim frequently while boiling. This may be sealed (corks covered with sealing wax) in bottles or stoneware jugs, or it may be canned in the usual manner, boiling hot, in sterilized fruit jars.
