Dried apples are a great snack, and they're also wonderful in winter compotes. You can also add them to fresh apples to make an extra-rich applesauce. This method preserves the unique flavors of individual apple varieties. Save the leftover apple cores to make apple scrap vinegar, jelly and homemade pectin.
