Re: [CnD] Peeling and coring apples

Yeah, got a corer/slicer here too. I use a T-fal brand, and it was about $4 
when I bought it a few months ago. I don't peel apples because there's too much 
nutrition in the peel to discard it.

Ann,

When I peal an apple I just use a hand-held manual peeler. For coring and 
making wedges I have this thing that you set on top of the apple, line up the 
center of the apple with the center hole and then with a lot of force press 
down on it. It removes the center core and leaves a number of wedges. A lot of 
brands make these, but a good one is OXO.

The apples can’t be too large or it won’t fit through the corer.

HTH.

Eileen

Hi folks,


Well, I feel like a total idiot asking this basic question. But my apple corer 
just broke. So, what is the easiest way to peel and core apples without an 
actual core remover?


I do have a vegetable peeler, but have never tried it on apples before.


Thanks for any help,

~Ann

Your peeler will work that you use for vegetables.  I don't know what I would 
do, if I broke my apple corer.

I've seen several recipes like this one.
I don't think most of the ingredients are wrong. I thought it was equal 
parts water to cornstarch.

It definitely would have lots of flavour.
Right up my husband's taste buds.

·  1. Heat oven to 400°F. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. Bake

My wife makes it with both beef and pork, but I do know that when she makes it, 
she makes a huge sucker pot of the stuff. Servings for days. Since this recipe 
states for 12 servings, maybe it's right.
