The harvest season is with us and
in gardens or appear in the mar-
apples, from the tart, green Granny
Smith apples, to golden and red
Delicious, crisp McIntosh and the
tart Miltons, and soon, the favorite
firm Cortlands, great for eating,
baking and salads.
Just as there is a wide variety of
apples, so are there as many, if not
more, kinds of recipes for this great
American fruit. Everyone knows
that the two-crust deep dish Apple
Pie is the American favorite along
with the Hot Dog and Hamburg, but
in this week’s Dallas Post Cook-
book, we bring you some unusual
but easy-to-prepare, delicious and
economical ways to use that ever-
so-popular Great American fruit.
Apple Salad with honey dressing
takes only 15 minutes to prepare
and the blend of apples, walnuts and
honey is a different but satisfying
dish. Apple Cauliflower is especially
appropriate for this time of year
with the abundance of both apples
and cauliflower. The flavors of the
two blend together in a crunchy,
delicious salad, an ideal accompani-
ment for pork, ham or poultry.
Apple Cheese Custard takes only 15
minutes to prepare and about an
hour to bake. Made with Granny
Smith, or later, with Cortland
apples, it is a tempting pudding.
For a variation of the all-time
favorite apple pie, we suggest
trying the Crumb Apple-Walnut Pie,
easy to make but flavorful and
appealing to the tastebuds.
- Washington Apple Cake is quite
different from other apple cakes but
makes an excellent dessert for serv-
ing to a group or taking to a church
supper. It takes less than half an
hour to prepare and about one hour
to bake. For those who enjoy Wal-
Apple varieties
Dallas Post/Charlot M. Denmon
dorf Salad, the Molded Apple Salad
is s delicious substitute. Prepare it
in 15 minutes and refrigerate for
two hours and you have a tasty,
molded salad with a fresh apple
cider taste.
