Apples
Every apple is a good apple. Putting them up for the winter is a great way to save the best flavor. So, I like putting them up two ways. The first way is peeling the apples with a apple peeler corer slicer, or just the old time peeler and a paring knife. Get a big bowl and add lemon juice, about a half cup and water to about half.
