Amazing Apples
Lots of great apple ideas. I'm filing them for the future.
Different varieties of apples oxidize at different rates. Is that due to
a difference in the Ph level? that could be an interesting test.
If you need to peel a lot of apples, I bought a great apple peeler at
one of those chain stores (Bed Bath & Beyond, or the other one, don't
remember which). It was <$25 and works far better than the much more
expensive one I tried. It's the old fashioned peeler, place the apple on
the prongs, turn the crank & it peels, cores and slices. I think you can
disengage the slicing blade. Kids love to turn the crank. They are
rewarded with a (usually continuous) string of peel and a spiral of
sliced apple.
