A Recipe for
Apple Amber
“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves.

* peeled, cored and thinly sliced. -- Cook the apple slices in about
2 T of water, stirring occasionally until they form a puree. Add
about 3/4 of the sugar, the lemon juice, and the egg yolks: mix well.
Put into an ovenproof dish and bake at 350F for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk the egg whites until stiff, folding in the remaining
sugar. Pile the meringue evenly on top of the apple mixture, return
the dish to the oven, and bake for about 10 minutes. Serve hot or
cold.
