Your own applesauce (was: RE: Written letter from Motts)

[Guest guest]

Email is “written.”! J

But I would urge you and anybody here to make your own

applesauce. It’s one of the easiest, quickest things you can make for the

biggest taste payoff. Make a few servings at a time with just a couple of

apples, or make more with a larger number of apples. It takes but a minute –

literraly -- to peel an apple, core it, slice it, dump it in a pan, add a

little water (and cinnamon – I add lots of cinnamon), cover it and turn on the

stove. And it takes but a few more minutes to cook to the soft stage. Then use

a hand blender to chop up the chunks and puree it, if you wish, or use a potato

masher for slightly bigger chunks. Or don’t mash it up at all. And, as Emeril

would say, “There you have it!” (Personally I use Empire apples because they

have a superb ratio of tartness to sweetness and are very crisp when fresh.

(If you peel a lot of apples, it’s worth getting a rotary (hand cranked) table

top peeler. And buy a corer (even if you don’t peel a lot of apples). They work

very well and waste less apple than cutting out the core with a knife.

Go for it!

I just emailed Mott's to see if I could get

written consent that their

applesauce contains only apples and water. Is it still good if it's

written consent in an email?
