Question:

What does is mean to 'core' an apple and how do you do it?


MY nieghbor gave me her secret recipe for apple crisp so I'm trying to make it, I tried calling her to ask but she wasn't home.


Answers: It means taking the center with the seeds out. There are corers that you can buy, but I just cut the apple in half (top to bottom) and make a V-cut in each half to remove the center/seeds. to "core" an apple means to take the core out duh. If you have an apple corer, which looks like a hollow cylinder with a handle, then shove it into the apple, twist, and pull out the core. Difficult. If not, then quarter it and cut into the core with a knife at an angle. geez retarded people. take a shape paring knife and place in center of apple as far as it will go and in an up and down motion twist apple to cut core out of the center. Make sure you do not cut hole in bottom of apple. Remove knife and pull core out..

Or you could buy a apple corer to remove it.. there is such thing as an apple corer that takes the seeds out, it just cuts a hole in the center. but i just quarter my apples and cut out the seeds and the core. It means to remove the center of the apple that holds the seeds. cut the apple into half, and half again. The point on the apple quarter is the core. Place knife on one end of the apple and pull the knife toward you, the core and seeds will cut away. you can use a 1 inch drill bit (make SURE it's never been used before on stuff other than food)and drill out the core Alton brown from good eats did this. or just cut it out with a special tool Yahoo!
