Easy Sparkling Golden Apples Simmered in Wine
cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
When I was simmering some apples in white wine, I was suddenly inspired and came up with this recipe. Lemongrass adds a refreshing lemony flavor even without lemons; plus, it changes the apples to a light, bright golden color. Serve this as dessert after a Christmas dinner.
Even people who can't drink wine can eat this, so serve as an elegant party dessert. As long as the apple slices turn translucent, you can shorten the cooking time. Recipe by Jikana

Cut the apples into 8 wedges each and peel (or cut them into any size you like.) Put them in one layer, if at all possible on the bottom of an enamel pan.
- 2
Cut up the lemongrass, and put into a fillable tea bag. (The lemongrass here is homegrown).

Add the wine, light brown sugar and lemongrass to the pan. Simmer for at least 15 minutes over medium-low heat.

I just finished one bottle of wine, so I opened another. I used a mixture of Suntory Delica wine and a German wine. Both were around 300 yen each.

Simple Fall Colored Wine Simmered Apples Simple Fall Colored Wine Simmered Apples
As it becomes fall, I yearn for autumn foliage colored apples.Jonathan apples tend to lose shape when cooking, so I recommend using light brown sugar for a more rich taste. You can use whatever apples you like. The lemon juice adds an accent, so I recommend it. Serve with a scoop of ice cream or eat piping hot. Recipe by Jikana

Sweetly Simmered Apples Sweetly Simmered Apples
I make this a lot during apple season. I use it for cake, for apple pie, in bread or on sweet pizza, serve it with ice cream... this sweet simmered apple is so versatile. The cinnamon and rum really make it taste great!Don't put the sugar in at the start. Draw out the moisture from the apple first, and cook it through slowly - that's the key! Once the rum and cinnamon are added the flavor really improves. If you don't like rum or cinnamon, this is also delicious with vanilla essence and a little butter! Try some variations!

If you use red wine, the flavor is deep and grownup, and if you use white wine, it's clean-cut and elegant. Recipe by La Land -
Apple Compote with Red Wine Apple Compote with Red Wine
I wanted to use apples to make a healthy snack. I only used the minimum amount of sugar to reduce sweetness and added a hint of spices to suit my own taste.Simmered apples are delicate, so treat them with care when you're taking them out. You can make them nicely with leftover wine.*Jonathan apples cook quite fast. Please adjust the cooking time to your desired toughness of the apples. I personally simmer mine for a long time, since I really dislike the crunchy texture of the apples. For a manageable amount. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki -
Chestnuts Simmered in White Wine Chestnuts Simmered in White Wine
I usually simmer chestnuts in red wine, but fancied trying white wine this time.By adding these chestnuts to a plastic bag (with no top) and placing them in the chilled compartment of my fridge for 1 hour, the sweetness increased tenfold. This time I used a whole bottle of wine and didn't add any water. It's best if you have 800 ml of wine, but you can make this recipe with 720 ml as well. For a manageable amount.

Wrapped Apples Wrapped Apples
This is a literal "apple pie"! I recommend starting your caramel sauce first, because it can be cooling while you peel and prep your apples and puff pastry.The recipe suggested Granny Smith apples, however, if tart is not your thing, you could try pretty much any other kind

There's no way that I could wait months for this...If you let it sit for longer, the color of the wine will deepen. Take the apples out of the jar within a year. (We use it to make jams or grate it to make drinks.)The remaining rock sugar will not completely dissolve, so in order to help it do so, please turn it over every day. Recipe by Gubigubipuha- -
