Editor's Note (09/16/2011) : This time of year, when the air begins to cool down at night and frost begins to threaten early in the day--but afternoon temperatures can still reach into the 70s and even the low 80s--is the time our family loves to head out together to the local orchard to pick a peck of apples, to ride the wagon, sip frozen cider, and select a pumpkin or two for the front porch. But what to do with all those apples? There's apple pie and apple fritters, caramel-covered apples and the like. But for something truly out of the ordinary, we turn again to the old Farm Journal book, How To Do Things and its "household recipes" page! (Just scroll on down to see the myriad "apple products" our ancestors made and sold from the "waste" of the homestead orchard.)
