I had an apple glut last year - nobody has brought any along this year, though...

Anyway, I made a lot of apple sauce, and stewed apple, for freezing. Nice to eat with custard, or rice pudding - not just with roast pork! Still have some in the freezer - but I only made that in January (this year!!!), because the apples kept fine for that long. So if I were you I'd try to hang on to some of them, and not use it all up straight away.

(If you keep them in the cellar or any other of those useful "cool places", don't keep them near your tatties - I've heard they don't like that and make each other go off. No idea why, probably some gas they exhale - where is the chemist who can explain that to us?)

Ina,

The gas is ethylene CH2-CH2 which is given off by fruit and tends to make things (including other fruit) ripen very quckly then go "off". It is used here in CA (controlled atmosphere) fruit storage!

Thanks Nev, how did you know it was you I meant when I was asking for the chemist... ? I suppose that's the same gas that makes tomatoes go red when you put banana skins in amongst them?

Reminds me, my brother once said he always got a headache when he was doing a lot of apple juicing, and he suspected that it was that gas being released during the process. Is that possible?

Ina

[Wombat]

That's just me I guess!

From what I have read, it is unlikely that ethylene caused the problem.

Yep, it is the same stuff as in the bananas
