Before adding the apples to your tobacco, you have to remove the core and any seeds before blending the apples. You can prepare your apples while you're soaking the tobacco. Cut the apples into fourths and make sure that you remove the core, seeds, and the stem. Be careful that you don't chop or cut the apples into even pieces. A food processor is best because it will give you a nice consistency that is in-between apple sauce and apple chunks. Let the apples simmer on a medium low heat. Cooking the apple mix will remove moisture. You don't want a lot of water in your apples because the moisture will make it harder for the shisha to burn. The amount of time you heat the apples is somewhat subjective. You don't want to burn the apples so keep an eye on the pan. Glycerol is an organic compound sometimes called glycerin or glycerine. Glycerin is used to absorb any water from your ingredients. The glycerin will help to bind your apple mixture with your tobacco mixture. But it will also reduce the chance of your shisha burning quickly and unevenly. Glycerine can even increase smoke production as it creates puffy white clouds when vaporized. While glycerine can produce smoke, add a bit of sugary flavor, and act as a preservative, it isn't necessary to use in your shisha. However, many shisha brands use it so the shisha lasts longer and it can help you get your apple shisha to a good consistency. You'll want to use vegetable glycerine or glycerine made for shisha.

Summary: Cut the apples into fourths and remove the core from each piece. Put the apple pieces into a food processor or cut into very small pieces. Heat the apples briefly in a saucepan to remove any moisture. Cool the apple mix and add glycerin.
