FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1988

Applesauce

Wash, pare and core 8 cooking
apples. Add about 1/2 cup water and
1/8 tsp. salt. Cook in covered non-
aluminum pot until soft. Add about
1/2 cup sugar while hot. Simmer
just long enough to melt sugar.
Amount of sugar and water varies
with sweetness and juiciness of
apples. For additional flavoring, add
with sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon,
grated lemon rind or juice, or a
combination of spices. Serves 8.

Variations: For honey
applesauce, substitute 1/2 cup
honey for sugar. Add 1 to 2 tsps.
grated lemon rind. For spiced
applesauce, substitute 1/3 cup firmly
packed brown sugar for granulated
sugar. Add 1/4 tsp. cinnamon and 1
tsp. grated lemon rind.

Potato Latkes

2 eggs
3 large potatoes, peeled
1 cup mashed potatoes
1 tsp. salt
3 tbsps. flour
pepper

1 tsp. grated onion, or a few drops
onion juice
1/2 tsp. baking powder
oil or fat
Grate the potatoes on a fine
grater and pour off most of the
liquid. Beat the eggs very well. Add
the eggs to the grated potatoes with
the rest of the ingredients. Do not
let stand, but fry at once. Drop by
spoonsful into a well-greased frying
pan. When brown on one side, turn
and brown on the other. Serve at
once, if possible, but if they must be
kept, place on paper towels on a
cookie sheet and keep warm in the
oven.
