ground spice. To this may be added a 

 little marmalaile, preserves, spiced gin- 

 egar, orange or lemon peel, or candied 

 cherries. The above is a good formula 

 to follow, but of course may be varied 

 to suit individual taste and the mate- 

 rials at hand. If too rich add more 

 chopped apples. In place of cider equal 

 parts of vinegar and water may be used. 



Preserved Apples, Whole — Use Mliit- 

 ney No. 20 apples. Wash and steam 

 until they can be pierced with a straw. 

 Place in a syrup made in the propor- 

 tion of one-half cup of water to two 

 cups of sugar, let simmer gently for a 

 few minutes, remove the apples and 

 pack carefulh- in glass jar, boil down 

 the syrup and pour over them, seal. 



Apple Chutney — Pare and core twelve 

 sour apples, remove the skin from three 

 onions, clean one bunch of celery, seed 

 one cup of raisins. Run all through a 

 meat grinder. Put on to cook with one 

 pint of cider vinegar, juice of two lem- 

 ons, one-half glass of currant jelly, two 

 cujjs brown sugar, one tablespoonful of 

 salt and one of ground ginger. After 

 cooking one hour add a spice bag con- 

 taining two tablespoonfuls of mixed 

 spices. Cook one hour longer, stirring 

 constantlv. Seal same as canned fruit. 



Apple Jam — Pare, core and chop one 

 pound of apples, add one pound of 

 sugar, one cup chopped raisins, chopped 

 rind and juice of an orange and lemon. 

 Cook until the apples are clear and the 

 mixture thickens like jam when cooled. 



Apple Relish — Three pounds of 

 apples, pared and diced. Three pounds 

 sugar, one pound raisins, one pound 

 pecans, two oranges; remove peeling 

 and grind it in the meat grinder; then 

 cut the orange into small pieces. Cook 

 for one hour, adding the nuts five min- 

 utes before removing from the stove. 



Apple Relish No. 2 — Pare, core and 

 slice tart apples. Cook in a very little 

 water until tender; rub through a sieve. 

 To one quart of pulp add one cup of 

 sugar, one cup boiled cider, one cup 

 vinegar, one teaspoon ginger, one tea- 

 spoon cinnamon, one-half teaspoon 

 each of gi-ound nutmeg, cloves and 

 allspice. Cook all together until it will 

 cut when cold. This is fine to serve
