Freezing apples
Apples are easy to freeze, so you can always have some on hand. The procedure is simple. First, peel the apples and cut them into the desired size. Place the pieces in a bowl and add 25 ml (5 tsp.) lemon juice per liter (4 cups) of apples, then toss to coat. Arrange the pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place in the freezer for 1 hour. When firm, place in a freezer bag. Remove the air from the bag and seal, then place the bag in the freezer. This way, you can use only the quantity you need!
