Organic Eden Grape Butter is made of 100% Concord grapes organically grown on a USA family vineyard. Immediately after harvest, the grapes are lightly crushed, seeds are removed, and then steam-jacket cooked into a thick purée. The purée is then shipped to Eden's Michican processing facility and slowly kettle cooked to a thick, rich, spreadable butter with deep purple color, sweet flavor, and an ambrosial aroma characteristic of the Concord grape. There are over two pounds of fruit in each jar of organic Eden Grape Butter.
The Concord grape was named after Concord, Massachusetts where, in 1849, Mr. Ephraim Wales Bull crossed native American fox grapes Vitis labrusca with European stocks Vitis vinifera and Catawba, a red-blue cross between V. labrusca and V. vinifera. After evaluating more than 22,000 attempts Mr. Bull produced the Concord grape that could withstand New England's cold. It won first place at the 1853 Boston Horticultural Society Exhibition. Original vines can be viewed at Mr. Bull's former residence in Concord.
Organic Eden Concord Grape Butter is superb on toast, muffins, scones, pancakes, waffles, and more. It can also be used as a filling for pastries or thumb print style cookies. Refrigerate after opening.
