Now that you know how to core this paradigmatic fruit, learn how to season, bake, spread, or even drink it. Could there be a better scent than that of baking apple and butter in an apple crumble? The pleasure of its smell could only be rivalled by the thrilling clash of freezing sorbet and hot, oozing apple on the tongue. If you are crushed under a summer heat wave, blend up this apple and ginger lemonade garnished with green apple shavings so thin they curl up like wood shavings. And to take your orchard-evoking dalliance and spread it further—across, say, a hunk of whole wheat toast or the cool icing of a cake—pair apple with elderflower cordial and cook it into a glistening jam.
