Decadent Applesauce
Christine Sharp submitted this recipe for Tidings' Maple Syrup Recipe Contest
She makes a simple applesauce to accompany pork that all of her guests rave about. It has a certain je ne sais quoi, except that only she and her husband know exactly what the "quoi" is. She likes the fact that no one can really tell what makes it taste so good. The secret is a tablespoon each of maple syrup and calvados.
Ingredients
3 or 4 MacIntosh apples, peeled and diced
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp Calvados
Method/Steps
1. Prepare apples; put them into a saucepan set over a low heat. Cook till they are softened.
2. Add the maple syrup and Calvdos.
3. Using a potato masher or a fork, mash everything together to the desired consistency.


Wine and Spirits Match
Serve alongside roast or grilled pork and a glass of Pouilly Fumé.
