    Photo by:

    Sweet-tart applesauce contrasts well with rich meats. This classic sauce is traditionally served with roast pork.

    Yield: Makes 4 servings

    INGREDIENTS
    • 1 lb 2oz (500g) sweet dessert apples, such as Golden Delicious or McIntosh
    • 2 tbsp sugar
    • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
    • ½ cinnamon stick
    • Pinch of salt
    • 2 tbsp butter

    Directions

    1. Peel, core, and roughly chop the apples. Combine the apples, ½ cup water, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt to a simmer in a heavy-bottomed, medium saucepan. Cover and cook over medium heat for 12-15 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the apples are tender but juicy. Remove the cinnamon stick.

    2. Remove from the heat, Using a fork, beat in the butter. Serve hot or at room temperature.

    Notes

    Prepare ahead:

    The applesauce can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.

    Good with roast pork, sausages, or potato pancakes.

    Freezing Information: freeze for up to 3 months.
