Each fall across North America heralds the arrival of the Apple Harvest. All kinds of apples will be available to match the great apple recipes that one can make.

The ancient Greeks and Romans in their day, enjoyed the juicy, sweet flavor of the apple. And as the Romans conquered Nothern Europe and England, tthey brought the apple trees with them. Later colonists to America, would do the same thing, spreading the apple tree to new territories.

Eventually, apple growing spread to all parts of America, due in part to a wandering apple seed farmer named John Chapman or Johnny Appleseed. Johnny distributed seeds to settlers throughout Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana in the 1800’s. And some say he made it out to the Northwest Territory (now Oregon and Washington). The apples in those days were often used to make hard apple cider.

Today, the apple is ranked as America’s favorite fruit, and the United States produces over 2,500 varieties of apples. And besides eating them right off the tree, we use them in all sorts of apple dishes.

Of course, it is an almost patriotic duty to eat apple pie. But we also turn apples into applesauce, apple dumplings, apple soup, and apple chutney.

Apple tarts, apple compost and apple bread continues an almost endless list of ways to use the apple. If you are looking to bake or cook with apples this season, check out the free apple recipes at Taste of Variety - Apple Recipes. And remember, the uses of this tasty fruit in the kitchen is only limited by one’s imagination.
