Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line 4 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Use an apple corer to remove the seeds and cores of the apples. Trim a small sliver off the bottom of each apple to create a flat bottom, so that they can't roll.
- Cut the apples into thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick. Place the apple slices in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the lemon juice and toss gently to combine.
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon with a pinch of salt in a small mixing bowl. Sprinkle over the apples and toss gently to evenly coat all of the slices.
- Spread the apples in an even layer over the prepared baking sheets, being sure that the slices don't touch.
- Bake until the edges curl and the apples become crispy, about 2 hours. Lift the chips off the parchment with an offset spatula and store in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Put the onions in a large bowl and cover with milk. Let soak for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, using a fine-sieve over a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, 2 teaspoons salt, chili powder, and cumin, if using. Stir in the beer until a smooth batter is formed. Set aside.
- Drain the onions and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Blot the onions with paper towels until dry.
- In a large, wide heavy-bottomed pot, pour in the oil to a depth of about 2 inches. Place over medium heat and heat to 400 degrees F. (The oil must be heated to 400 degrees F. since the temperature drops oil to about 375 degrees F. when the onions are added.)
- Working in batches, transfer about 8 to 10 of the onions to the batter and mix to coat well. Using tongs, pull several of the onions out of the batter, and let any excess batter fall back into the bowl. Carefully add to the oil and fry, flipping once, until golden brown and crispy, about 3 1/2 minutes per batch. Using the tongs, transfer to a dry paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Repeat with the remaining onions. Serve immediately.

BRANDIED APPLE RINGS
This is a great way to preserve apples, with a sweet, subtle brandy flavor to it. They make an excellent pie filling! It should be enough to make three pies.

Steps:
- Place apple rings in a bowl and pour in enough water to cover. Add lemon juice to water.
- Bring sugar and 3 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan; cook and stir until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Add apples to sugar-water mixture and return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until apples are tender, about 30 minutes.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack apple rings into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Keep syrup in the saucepan.
- Bring the syrup back to a boil and add brandy; cook and stir until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Ladle the syrup over apple rings, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top.
- Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

FRIED APPLE RINGS
These are a great snack, side dish, dessert, breakfast...anything goes!! Another great way to use up apples that are past their prime. Simple, but different and very tasty, and kids love these, too.

SAUTéED APPLE RINGS
I came across this utterly simple idea in Deborah Madison's "Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone." She serves hers as a dessert with ice cream, a lovely use for the apples (which she also embellishes with raisins and pine nuts). I think they make a great addition to the Thanksgiving buffet, to go with the turkey along with cranberry sauce. Or serve them with your latkes next month! Breakfast is another meal where these are welcome, right on top of your whole wheat buttermilk pancakes. I find that the apples will caramelize most efficiently if you don't crowd the pan, so I begin by sautéing the apples in 2 batches, then I combine the batches for the final addition of vanilla and optional brandy or calvados. Both tender apples like McIntosh, Gala, Macoun and Cortland, as well as firmer apples like Braeburns, work well in this dish.

Steps:
- Core apples and rub inside with lemon wedge. Peel if desired (I don't). Slice about 1/4 inch thick, or a little bit thicker.
- Melt half the butter over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. When it stops foaming (wait this long so that the apples sear when you add them to the pan) add half the apples, half the sugar and half the cinnamon. Cook, flipping apple rings often, until apples are caramelized, 10 to 12 minutes. Test, using the tip of a knife or the edge of a spoon, to see if the apples are soft all the way through. Remove to a bowl. Repeat with remaining apples, butter, sugar and cinnamon. When second batch is caramelized return first batch to pan. Add vanilla and brandy if using and continue to cook, flipping apples, until the liquid evaporates. Transfer to a bowl or serving dish. Serve warm.

SPICY MOCK APPLE RINGS
You can use cucumbers, zucchini, or apples to make these homemade spiced rings. My family can't tell the difference from apples to zucchini. It is easy but takes a couple of minutes each day for about a week to make. Well worth the small effort!

Steps:
- Mix 2 cups water (or amount needed to cover the zucchini) and pickling lime together in a nonreactive bowl. Place the zucchini slices in a large (at least 1-gallon) glass jar or large crock, and pour the lime mixture over the zucchini. The solution should completely cover the zucchini. Cover the jar with plastic wrap, and allow to stand for 24 hours. Drain the zucchini slices in a colander in the sink; thoroughly wash the glass jar. Rinse the zucchini slices very well under running water to rinse away all the lime, and place the slices back into the jar. Cover with fresh cool water, allow to stand for 2 to 3 hours, and drain away the water. Rinse again.
- Place the zucchini slices into a large pot, and stir in 1 cup vinegar, the alum, food coloring, and 2 more cups water (or enough water to cover the zucchini slices). Bring to a boil over medium heat, reduce heat to low, and simmer the zucchini slices for 2 hours. Drain the zucchini slices, and discard the liquid.
- Place the zucchini slices back into the glass jar. Mix together 1 cup of vinegar, 3 more cups of water, the sugar, cinnamon sticks, and red hot candies in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and stir until the sugar and candies dissolve. Pour the syrup over the zucchini slices. Allow the zucchini to stand covered for 24 hours. Drain, and reserve the syrup. Bring the syrup to a full rolling boil in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Sterilize the canning jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the zucchini slices into the hot, sterilized jars, and pour the hot syrup into the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 20 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
