Saucesational: An Experiment in Applesauce - Akane
We were able to have a few of yet another new variety of apples to this orchard this season. Hopefully next season we’ll have even more so more folks can get a bag (or two). The Akane is one of the parents of the popular Sansa. It’s a nice, crisp early apple with a sweet, tart flavor. The feedback from our customers/apple eaters was this is definitely going to be a good apple.
Diane saved a few of the more damaged ones and I was able to make it into some sauce for my Saucesational Experiment.
I peeled, cored and sliced the akane’s up and piled them full into my mini crock pot. They kept their shape for quite awhile in the heat but all of a sudden I came to stir them and they were done! The cooked down pretty smooth but I almost felt the texture was slightly flaky.
Jared really liked this tart flavorful sauce, but for me it was a bit too tart. I tried it right after the sansa sauce and it felt sour to me. But, since the Sansa’s made such a sweet sauce, I waited, and tried it again later with a fresh pallet. Still tart but no longer sour.
Definitely a different flavor and texture but if you’re into tart applesauce this may be the apple for you in 2014.
