Thank you for posting this video. I just recently bought 9 acres of VERY rural property and discovered Paw Paw trees on it. I plan to make ice cream and also use this recipe to make Paw Paw butter. :)
@@TheWildernessPerspective Just to let you know: a couple of months ago I made the PawPaw butter and it was freakin' fantastic! It was awesome and I can't wait until this year's harvest to make more. :)
The lemon juice “lowers” the pH not raise it. 😁 Thanks for the informational video! Learning about the pawpaw for the first time and I’m almost 40 😣 Have a great one!
Love these things! This will be my first year getting them in the wild. I spotted a massive patch by the river. It's basically the whole forest edge. What time of year is it there? I'm watching for them to ripen here.
They usually ripen in mid September. You will just need to keep checking. Once you see them on the ground then you can shake the tree a little and the ripe ones shld fall off. Enjoy👍
Giving this a try. Shook one tree yesterday and had about 20 pawpaws fall from it! I'm not seeing the recipe link in the description. I see the ingredients in video, but I'll have to try to get the steps and times from the video itself.
Hello, Adam Thank you for your video. I love to eat Cherimoya, I hear Pawpaw it from the same family of Cherimoya, so I grow 4 different type Mango pawpaw, NC-1 Pawpaw and Pennsylvania Golden Pawpaw. I hope one of these Pawpaw tase like Cherimoya, If not do you know which type tase like Cherimoya? my growing zone 7a I live in Washington, Wenatchee I hope my tree service, I grow them March 1, 2019. If you have any advice, I really appreciate it. Thank you.
We found a few trees over the weekend and I think it's a little early. So we are going to go back in a week or two. Never heard of the butter and that's why I'm watching your video. Ohio614
Did these keep the pawpaw flavor? I recently made pawpaw bread by using a banana bread recipe and substituting bananas with pawpaw pulp, and it had 0 pawpaw flavor. I've heard somewhere that they lose their flavor when cooked.
Yes these kept a pawpaw flavor for at least a year. I haven't tried any older than that. It is sweeter than regular pawpaw's with the sugar and vanilla added.
It will thicken with cooking. As it cools, the sugars will become less fluid as well and thicken. Use your own judgement with how much water you add as well for desired thickness. Just remember to stir pretty consistently to avoid scorching in the bottom of the pan.
I have stored mine in the refrigerator and in the pantry unopened for about a year each. I'm not sure how much longer they would last on the shelf. Maybe another year or two. Maybe not. Pawpaw butter is in the same family as apple butter as much as pear butter or peach butter would be I suppose. As far as the pawpaw fruit is concerned, it is more closely related to custard-apple, cherimoya, sweetsop, ylang-ylang, and soursop than apples.
I don't know for sure, sorry. My concern would be the possible lack of acidity to fight off botulism. That's why the lemon juice is in the recipe likely. You have to do the same thing for floral jellies like dandelion and violet.
hello from France, thanks for the receipe , at 10 minutes , the metal spiral in french is a "chinois " ( traduction : à chinese, not politicaly corect in your language LOL ) , i have 10 pawxpaw of 1 ears old in my garden, i will try to cook in 3 years, i will be patient
They grow perfectly fine after cooking. I throw the seeds out the side of my home and I have hundreds, and that's no exaggeration, of saplings at my home. I am almost overrun! Lol I don't even have to bury them and they take root.
Dude it is so sad watching you put all that sugar in, you’re taking a fruit that already has a healthy amount of sugar and absolutely nuking it with sugar, making it unbelievably unhealthy. I feel sorry for your kids, absolutely horrible and sad that you would feed them this.
@@name479 cane sugar is not bad if eaten in moderation. It’s preservatives and high fructose corn syrup that are bad. Honey is expensive and not everyone can afford it.
You're not supposed to eat a whole jar in 1 sitting. This is how you make jellies/jams. You use it to spread on toast or in desserts (which aren't healthy). This is a snack, not a whole meal. 😂
Thank you for posting this video.

@@EthicalPreparedness fantastic!! It really is a great recipe. It's tedious, but it's nice to have pawpaw's in the winter and spring!
@@TheWildernessPerspective i thought they were poisonous or the skin is ?
@@dl8619 they're not poisonous
Very interesting
I understand the shelf life of a PawPaw is measured in hours so that is why you can’t find them in stores
Thank you for the video! I love that you did this with your daughter. I’m sure it’s a memory she’ll cherish forever
There are alternatives for the sweeting process substitutes

I just added it to the description, thanks!
Way cool how you teach your daughter !
you know you should collect the seeds raw and sell them. there is a lot of demand for them. they sell about 8$ for 6

wszystko dobrze dopóki nie dodałeś cukru...owoce są wystarczająco .ciekaw jestem czy będziesz jadł to co zrobiłeś????
The utensil is called a spider👍🏻 great video wish I could just walk into a forest of pawpaws
Nice video
Thanks for the tips and this great video!

Is the recipe suppose to make the mixture thin like that or does it thicken up over time in the jar?
It will thicken with cooking. As it cools, the sugars will become less fluid as well and thicken. Use your own judgement with how much water you add as well for desired thickness. Just remember to stir pretty consistently to avoid scorching in the bottom of the pan.
Is it room temperature? I think all of these things are coming back because of hard times. Was or is there any commercially produced product?
Can you use a sugar substitute? Say stevia??
I only ask bc I'm prediabetic and trying to eliminate added sugars in my diet.
Never heard of paw paw butter. Is it able to store anywhere? Refrigerator? Freezer? In Apple butter family?
I have stored mine in the refrigerator and in the pantry unopened for about a year each. I'm not sure how much longer they would last on the shelf. Maybe another year or two. Maybe not.

Where is that place?
I'm sure I can make paw paw atolé! 😋
U ever get around to making it?
💯🌼🌱😁👍🌱🌼💯Thank you so much!!!
Itt Magyarországon jól jött volna nekem az a sok mag ha nem lett volna megfőzve. Akarok telepíteni a kertembe ilyen fát.
How does the pawpaw butter taste compared to fresh pawpaw?
It is sweeter and has more of a vanilla flavor to it as the pawpaw butter.
Do you know if the paw paw fruit can be canned just as fruit? Maybe mashed with some water or something?
I don't know for sure, sorry. My concern would be the possible lack of acidity to fight off botulism. That's why the lemon juice is in the recipe likely. You have to do the same thing for floral jellies like dandelion and violet.
@@TheWildernessPerspective ok, thank you for replying!
Jelly?
Do in kitchen...
The lemon juice lowers the Ph which helps the pectin in the fruit set.
id love to try it, send me one lol

I would love to hear about your results in 3 years if you can remember!
if you remove the seeds before cooking, you can plant those for trees>>>BEFORE THE COOKING PROCESS please and thank you
They grow perfectly fine after cooking. I throw the seeds out the side of my home and I have hundreds, and that's no exaggeration, of saplings at my home. I am almost overrun! Lol I don't even have to bury them and they take root.
Hello my friend I am from srilanka... I love the nature.. could you pls send me some paw paw seeds pls....?
I think you ruined it with that sugar man

You obviously don’t know how jams, jellies, and fruit butters/spreads are made. They’ve been prepared like that for centuries.
@@childofgod6769 I suppose you could maybe use honey but yeah preserves use a bunch of sugar
