Saucesational: An Experiment in Applesauce–Wealthy
Yesterday I took a few minutes to sauce up some Wealthy apples. Wealthy’s are a striped red fruit with a tart balanced flavor. It is a multi-purpose apple, but especially good for cooking. Keeps well. Cherry Crab x Sops of Wine
We have quite a few customers that come in and are really grateful that we grow wealthy’s. It’s their FAVORITE apple for making pies and/or sauce. I just had a lady come in today who’s mother used to make her drive to a random orchard hours from her home to buy wealthy’s…and then she discovered that we grew them.
The wealthy apple was also the apple I featured this week for the folks that signed up for our apple share through the Burr Oak Garden CSA.
Anyway – I peeled, cored and sliced the wealthy’s and tossed them into the mini slow cooker. The apples became slightly brown right away. I noticed that they stayed this color even when they were done cooking so the sauce was sort of a light brownish looking color.
The apples mushed up somewhat and remained slightly chunky. I like this kind of texture in my applesauce. I felt that the wealthy’s had a unique tart flavor. I can understand why if people like this flavor they would want it for their baking apples. I personally was not a huge fan of the sauce – too tart for me. But Jared tried it too and enjoyed the flavor.
