Rustic Homemade Applesauce

Apples stewed with spices create a chunky, naturally sweet applesauce. Replaced sugar with honey, cinnamon with cardamom, and added fresh ginger for heat. Apples cooked in water with lemon juice to avoid browning and boost brightness. Cook low and slow; listen for faint simmer sounds and watch apples soften and break down. Blitz briefly to keep texture or puree smooth if preferred. Chill thickens sauce; serve warm to taste aromas and warmth. Substitutions detailed for sweeteners, spices, and fruit varieties. Focus on appearance and texture cues over timing. Spill tips for blender safety and reheating without loss of flavor.
