Crisped Apples

Core some good apples such as easily cook soft, then pare them and if large cut them in two. Steep them several hours in sugar-and-water syrup well flavored with lemon. Take the apples out, roll them over and over in flour and fry them in hot lard. Serve with sauce.

Crisped pears can be done the same way if soft varieties of the fruit are used.
