Steps:
- Wash the apples well. Do Not Peel! Chop them into 1 inch pieces, discarding the core.
- Put the apples, cider, cinnamon and cloves into a heavy soup pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring often, until the apples are soft.
- Remove the spices, and then puree the apples in a food processor. I did this in batches so as not to overload the processor. You can puree the apples to a super smooth consistency, or keep some texture. I chose to retain a little bit of texture in mine.
- Refrigerate the sauce until needed. It will keep for a week in the refrigerator.
MARTHA'S PINK APPLESAUCE
We like to use a combination of McIntosh apples and deep-red varieties, such as Empire or Cortland. The former bring classic flavor and the latter a beautiful color.

PRETTY IN PINK APPLESAUCE
This homemade applesauce has a delicious, clear apple taste accented with a little nutmeg, a nip of lemon, and bit of cranberry juice . Use some of the apple peelings to make the applesauce nice and thick (and remember to dig them out before serving).

PINK APPLESAUCE MERINGUE TART WITH HAZELNUT COOKIE CRUST
Steps:
- Make applesauce filling:
- Quarter and core apples (do not peel). In a 5-quart saucepan simmer apples, uncovered, with remaining filling ingredients 2 hours, or until mixture is reduced to about 3 3/4 cups. (Stir mixture frequently during last 30 minutes of cooking to prevent scorching.) Force mixture through a food mill fitted with coarse disk or a medium-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids, and chill. Applesauce may be made up to 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Make cookie crust:
- In a food processor grind hazelnuts fine with sugar, flour, and salt. Add butter and pulse mixture well. Add yolk mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition, and pulse mixture until it forms a dough. Press dough onto bottom and up side of a 10-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim. Bake crust in middle of oven 25 minutes, or until browned lightly, and cool in pan on a rack. Crust may be made 3 days ahead and kept, covered, in a cool dry place.
- Spread applesauce onto crust.
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Make meringue:
- In a bowl with an electric mixer beat egg whites with a pinch salt until they hold soft peaks. Add sugar gradually, beating whites until they hold stiff peaks.
- Transfer meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip and pipe some in a lattice pattern over filling. Pipe remaining meringue onto edge of tart to make a decorative border.
- Bake tart in middle of oven 10 minutes, or until meringue is golden, and chill 30 minutes or up to 3 hours.
- To toast and skin hazelnuts:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a baking pan toast hazelnuts in one layer in oven 10 to 15 minutes, or until colored lightly, and skins blister. Wrap nuts in a kitchen towel and let steam 1 minute. Rub nuts in towel to remove as much of skins as possible and cool.

PINK APPLESAUCE
Martha Stewart developed this recipe when she discovered that lemon juice reacts with red-skinned apples and turns them pink. Use the reddest apples you can find and adjust the amount of sugar according to the sweetness of the apples. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Quarter the apples, do not peel, and remove the seeds and cores. Place apples in a bowl, add the lemon juice, and toss thoroughly to coat.
- Place the apples, sugar, and 1 cup water in a heavy saucepan. Cover pot, and let simmer over low heat, about 30 minutes, or until the apples break down to a saucelike consistency.
- Remove pot from heat, uncover, and allow apples to cool slightly. Using a rubber scraper, gently push apples through a food mill or wire sieve. Discard the skins. Refrigerate until ready for use.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: For the best applesauce, use a variety of apples that are both sweet and tart, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
- Peel and core the apples: This will help to remove any unwanted bitterness from the applesauce.
- Cook the apples until they are soft: This will help to release their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Add spices: A variety of spices can be added to applesauce to enhance its flavor, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- Sweeten to taste: If you find that your applesauce is too tart, you can add a little bit of sugar or honey to taste.
Conclusion:
Applesauce is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and it can be used as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or yogurt.
