PRESERVES
A new method of keeping Apples fresh and good, thro’ the winter and into the summer
Take a quantity of pippins, or other good winter apples; take them from the tree carefully when ripe, and before frost, make a hole through each one with a goose-quil from stem to eye, fill this with sugar, lay them on a linen cloth in a chamber, let them lay in this position two weeks, till they are a little wilted, then put them in a tight cask, and keep them from freezing.
