Pickled Apple Stick Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Combine sugar and vinegar together in a small bowl.
• Mix together apples, onion, and pickle in a medium bowl.
• Toss with vinegar mixture and then refrigerate until thoroughly chilled before serving (lets the flavors mix).

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
• Add the onion and apples and saute for three to five minutes, until apples have softened.
• Transfer to a medium bowl and sprinkle with the lemon juice.
• Add the beets and capers and toss well.
• Mix the mayo and sour cream together, then add to the salad, tossing gently to coat.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer to serving bowl or individual plates and garnish with the parsley and chives.
• Note: Use a glass or stainless bowl because the beets will stain plastic and some ceramics.
• Note 2: You can also do this with baby beets if you're lucky enough to find them at a farmer's market--increase the number of beets relative to their size.

Steps:

• With a mandoline or vegetable peeler, cut apples into very thin slices. Place apples in a 1-quart jar. In a large saucepan, bring remaining ingredients to a boil. Carefully ladle hot liquid over apples. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Steps:

• Take ripe, hard, sweet apples.
• Peel evenly, and if the apples are perfect leave them whole, otherwise cut into quarters.
• To a peck of apples take about two quarts of vinegar and four pounds of sugar, half an ounce of mace, half an ounce of cloves and the same amount of allspice, all unground, one teaspoonful of mustard seed, a few pepper grains and a little salt. Heat the vinegar and sugar together until it boils, skim well, put the spices into a thin muslin bag and add to the vinegar, then put in the apples.
• Place over the fire, and stew slowly until the apples are soft. Then take out the apples, let the vinegar boil down and pour over the fruit; cover and put away.
