INSTRUCTIONS
If using blender or food processor to puree apples, peel and core
them. For chunky applesauce, leave them unpeeled. Cut apples into
quarters; combine with sugar, water and vanilla bean in large
saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook over medium-low heat 10
minutes. Uncover; cook, stirring often, about 15 minutes, until
apples are very tender. For chunky applesauce, simmer 5 minutes
longer, until apples fall apart. Remove vanilla bean. If using
blender or processor, let mixture cool slightly before pureeing it.
Taste applesauce and add lemon juice or more sugar if needed. If
adding more sugar, simmer and stir applesauce 1 minute to blend it
in. Yield: 8 to 12 servings.
Note: For applesauce made with food mill, there's no need to peel or
core apples. Fit food mill with coarse disk. After cooking apples,
transfer them in batches to food mill with slotted spoon, and puree.
Return puree to saucepan and simmer until applesauce is as thick as
you like.
