Apples Not Quite Ripe

II is the time when many vari.
cites OF apples yield their best

hold unpleasant memories for the
small boy 'ho once had a sur.

many pleasant possibilities for the
cook who finds herself with a gener-
GUS surplus o. underripe apples.
After pairing and cooking with a
minimum OF water. the apples are
ready for serving In any number OF
delightful ways. The quickest des
sert Is 70 whip the cooled apple
sauce until fluffy. then add flavor

sert cups. Ginger syrup or diced
preserved ginger. chopped walnuts.
pecans or almonds. honey OF pro-
nounced flavor. melted marshmal-
lows, are a few OF the flavors that
blend well.
Apple sauce may also be made into
a smooth. creamy dessert by mixing
with equal parts OF boiled custard
and some whipped cream. then
chilled for several hours. Or II
may be blended with gelatin and
whipped cream TO form en- unusual
