Our local paper was wondering if anyone had any spiced apple recipes, stories, favorite varieties. She was raised in Il where her grandparents canned Whitney Crab every year and they ate them at Thanksgiving. I told her I thought Whitney was fine for that but I thought that there was a different crab that was the mainstay for that purpose. Doe anyone know the traditional candied or spiced apple variety? (I think its "spiced" not candied, is there a difference?)
My grandmother also used too always have these preserved applecrabs that were clove flavored. She was German and so was the grandma the above mentioned journalist. Do you think it is a German tradition?
Any info welcome, I will relay the info with your name for print unless you say you'd prefer not.

Thanks
Kevin Bradley
