Applesauce
From Free net encyclopedia
Image:Applesauce.jpg Applesauce (or apple sauce) is made from stewed and mashed apples, sweetened to taste with sugar or high fructose corn syrup. It can use peeled or unpeeled apples and a variety of spices or additives like cinnamon. Applesauce can be fine or coarse textured, even to including large chunks of apple. It is easily produced at home, and commercial versions are readily available in the supermarket as a common food or as a snack for children.
In the United Kingdom, apple sauce is not usually served as a dish on its own, but, as the name variant suggests, as a sauce. This usually accompanies a main course meat, and is most often paired with ham, pork, or gammon.
Unsweetened applesauce is a good food for babies. It is sometimes recommended to combat diarrhea.
The word "Applesauce" was a slang term frequently used during the 1920's, meaning "oh no!" or "darn".
Recipe from the 1881 Household Cyclopedia
Pare and core tart apples, cut them in slices, rinse and put them in an earthern stewpan, set them on the fire, do not stir them until they burst and are done: mash them with a spoon, and when perfectly cool sweeten with white sugar to taste.
