Cutting an Apple for Cranberry Sauce

Video Transcript

"I'm Stephanie Barnett on behalf of Expert Village and today we're going to make Christmas Cranberry Sauce. Oh, that smells good! I'm using a granny smith apple today. You could use any other green kind of apple. A pippin, or some red apples. A sparta, a johnathan, a johnny gold, a nova, a honey crisp, any kind of flavorful apple is what you're looking for. You don't want a red delicious or a golden delicious apple. They're best for eating and not for cooking with. So, this is the kind of apple that I want you to use. So, now I want you to cut up your apple. You don't have to take the skin off for this recipe. It makes it much easier when cutting your apple. So cut your apple in half. Cut it in a quarter. I want you to core the apple. Take out that middle. Core that apple, and then I want you to make little slices. And then we're going to go back and make long rectangles. It doesn't have to be professional. They don't have to be even formally shaped. They do have to be somewhat similar in size. OK, so now you have your rectangles, line them up, and just go back and cut little squares. And that's all you need to do. You foresee with the rest of this, the rest of the apples. Again, cut into slices, cut into long rectangles. You are going to do this for the entire apple."
