Damn, killed the thread. Wasn't trying to.
Speaking of odd little kitchen gadgets, someone gave me this, only in metal.
It sort of looks like fun, but I put it on a top shelf and I keep forgetting it's there until after I've already blanched and done tomatoes. One day, I swear, I'll remember I have it before I make the sauce, instead of while I'm doing the washing up after I've made it.
Why does one rice applesauce?
Cooked apples are like cooked potatoes - mushy but not a complete puree. While mashed potato lumps can be pleasant, depending on your preference, apple sauce should be smoooooove.
In my family's case, we usually left the peel on the apple while cooking it, too. So then we smushed it through the ricer, and got nice smooth pink applesauce with no peel.
I lurve applesauce. But it must be ice-cold. Warm applesauce is simply - wrong.

You are a sick and disgusting pervert.
Smooth or lumpy, makes me no nevermind.
Just don't add sugar (bleah) to it. And just don't serve it warm.
I'll eat it hot if it's the first serving out of the crock pot. Otherwise, on ice works.
Crock pot? Who makes applesauce in a crock pot?
People who peel apples before making applesauce are NUTS.
We used one of those tall conical things with a big wood pestle to strain out the seeds and skins. I can no longer remember what its real name is because my husband calls it a "chinois".
