Make Your Own Apple Cider!
Guess what you don’t need to make apple cider at home? Any wacky equipment, that’s what. No antiquated-looking cider press necessary: If you’ve got a food processor, a fine-mesh sieve, and some cheesecloth, you’re good to go.
This is fantastic news for any of you who trekked out to an orchard last weekend and vastly overestimated the number of apples a reasonable person is able to consume in a week. In the video above, Kitchen Conundrums host Thomas Joseph demonstrates how to transform your cache into a very manageable amount of apple cider.
Sure, you can drink the sweet stuff on its own. Or you could use the fruit as a base for sugar-encrusted apple cider doughnuts, a fluffy apple Dutch baby, or any of these 16 recipes, which run the gamut from sweet to savory. The possibilities are endless.
But do yourself a favor and make yourself a huge batch of apple cider with all those apples kicking around. Trust us: Even apple pie can get old if you bake three in a row.
