The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |

Bring sugar and water to a boil. Add lemon rind and spices. Core
apples and place in baking dish or skillet. Place figs around and

gently, basting occasionally, until apples are tender and syrup
thickened. Then serve each apple topped with a plump juicy fig, to 6
lucky people.
