The Epicure's Almanac or Diary of Good Living

August 18th : APPLE PIE

Pare, core, and cut into quarters, nine or ten pippins, or russet-coats, pack them closely in a proper dish, add the peel of half a lemon chopped fine, half a dozen cloves, two table-spoonfuls of quince marmalade, four ounces of powdered sugar, and enough rose-water to moisten the whole; put on a top crust of puff paste, and give it an hour and a quarter's baking.

This pie is best warm, but by no means to be despised when cold.
