Homemade applesauce made with apples that have been carefully chosen is the best, and it is so simple to make! Make chunky applesauce by mashing the cooked apples with a potato masher. Use a food mill to puree the cooked apples if you want smooth apple sauce. The secret is to boil the apples with some lemon peel added in strips. Lemon accentuates the apple flavor. Verify that the apple you use is a quality cooking apple, such as a Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Fuji, Jonathan, Mcintosh, or Gravenstein. When you’re done, it’ll be hot or chilled and ready to serve. It tastes well with vanilla yogurt or ice cream. Easy to freeze and keeps for a year in a frigid freezer.
