THE BEST HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE
After tasting the pure apple flavor of this homemade sauce, you just might never go back to the store-bought kind. Supermarket applesauce can be loaded with added sweeteners and flavorings. We use only a little sugar, plus lemon juice, salt and cinnamon, providing a balanced flavor and the perfect amount of sweetness.

Steps:
- Combine the apples, sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the apples are very soft, 18 to 20 minutes.
- Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. Let cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer the apple mixture to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, puree in the pan with an immersion blender.
- Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. Store leftover applesauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

I prepared these one Christmas for my son, who was on a low-carb diet. I was afraid he'd be disappointed because he couldn't eat holiday cookies, but these made up for it-he loved them! Save a handful to chop and sprinkle over a green salad or pasta. -Mary Bilyeu, Ann Arbor, Michigan

Steps:
- Combine 1 Tbsp. vinegar and 3 cups cold water in a medium bowl. Add apple slices and let soak.
- Meanwhile, whisk mustard, kosher salt, and remaining 1/4 cup vinegar in a medium bowl, then whisk in oil in a slow, steady stream.
- Drain and pat apple slices dry. Combine apple slices, endives, celery stalks, cheese, and half of the almonds in a large bowl.
- Drizzle dressing over salad. Gently toss until salad is evenly dressed, then season with sea salt and pepper. Top with chives, celery leaves, and remaining almonds.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when cooked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
- Don't overcook the apples: Cook the apples until they are softened but still have a little bit of texture. Overcooked apples will become mushy.
- Use a sharp cheddar cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese will give the applesauce a more intense flavor. You can also use a milder cheddar cheese if you prefer.
- Toast the almonds: Toasting the almonds will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Serve the applesauce warm or cold: Applesauce can be served warm or cold. If you are serving it cold, be sure to chill it for at least 2 hours before serving.
Conclusion:
Applesauce with cheddar cheese and toasted almonds is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a snack, side dish, or dessert. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its sweet and savory flavors, this applesauce is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
