Recipe Introduction
Know your apples? Select tart, firm, juicy apples, such as Jonathans, Winesaps, Greenings, Duchess, Wealthies, or Roman Beauties. 1 lb. apples equals 3 med. apples or 3 cups sliced apples. Peel apples, quarter them, remove cores, and slice 1/4" thick. If apples are dry, sprinkle with a little water. Use the smaller or larger amount of sugar according to sweetness of apples and desired taste. For more tartness add a little lemon juice.
