There was a glut of apples in 2009. With three trees at East Neuk there was an abundance of Discovery, James Grieve and Sunset, all eating apples. Dr Anne bought a beech storage box, she wiped and wrapped the apples setting them out on the trays. Some of the apples she stewed and put in the freezer. Now in February 2010 she has been out checking the freshness to find that they are in tip top condition.
Dr Anne has found a handwritten cookery book with a number of apple recipes. The book dates back to the late 1930s and early 1940s when her mother was cook at Durn House, Portsoy for the late Sheriff and Mrs Walker.
Dr Anne is going to try out and share these recipes over the next few weeks.
