Apple Ginger

Take an equal quantity of apples and sugar, adding some water to make a syrup. Chop the apples very fine with a little green ginger, or if the green ginger is not available, use the dry. Put this mince into the syrup, and the grated rind of a few lemons, and boil slowly for two hours, or until it has a clear appearance.
