A sort-of medieval recipe, I haven't found a good primary source, only other people saying that it is medieval. A small verse:

Next crowne the bowle full of With gentle lambs wooll, Adde sugar, nutmeg, and ginger, With a store of ale too, And thus ye must doe To make the Wassaile a swinger.

No reference was listed, and it sounds fake; but I haven't had time to investigate further. Anyway the recipe is unusual and delicous regardless of provenance.

3 liters of apple juice or cider (I did part unfiltered apple juice, part carbonated apple juice) 6 large apples 2 tsp ground nutmeg 1 tsp ground ginger 1 cup brown sugar

Preheat oven to 375° F. Cut the apples in half and cut out the cores. Place them in a cake pan and add about ½” of water. Roast the apples for 35-45 minutes, until they are mushy and the skin is peeling off.

Meanwhile, put the sugar in a pan and add enough juice to cover it. Heat over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Stir in the nutmeg and ginger. Keep it over low heat.

Remove and discard the skin from the roasted apples. I found that different varieties of apple peeled differently, and some apple flesh needed to be scraped off the back of the pulled-off skin, but it wasn't difficult.

Puree the apple flesh in a food processor or blender until it is totally smooth like thick apple sauce. If using a blender, add enough juice to get it to blend, but not enough to really liquefy it. It needs to be thick and drier than usual applesauce.

Set a crock pot on high heat. Pour in the apple juice/cider and the sugar mix. Stir together. Then pour in the pureed apple. It should float to the top and resemble a wool fleece soaking in cider. Let it heat up to desired temperature, then set the crock pot to low or warm to maintain temperature for the duration of your winter feast.

2 cups apple juice ¼ cup lemon juice 2 Tbsp honey ½ cup milk ½ cup cream

I prefer to make apple juice with my juicer, but store-bought is fine. Stir together all ingredients. Chill in the fridge until it is completely cold. Churn in ice cream machine for 20 minutes, then transfer to a container and freeze until hard.

4 cups apples, diced to ½” pieces with the core removed ½ cup onion, minced ½ cup orange juice ¼ cup white vinegar 2 Tbsp apple cider ½ cup brown sugar ½ tsp ground ginger ½ tsp mustard seed 1/8 tsp chili powder 1/8 tsp saffron powder ¾ tsp salt

Mix all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it is boiling, reduce heat to low and let simmer for 50-60 minutes, until the liquid is reduced to a small amount of thick syrup. Remove from heat and let cool completely so that it can continue to thicken.

1 lb cherries, any variety, pits and stems removed 2 Tbsp apple juice, as desired for sweetness ¼ tsp ground cinnamon A pinch of ground cloves 1 cup milk or nut milk

If using canned cherries, drain out and discard the syrup. If using fresh cherries and juice comes out from pitting them, use the juice!

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Be sure to blend it thoroughly. Strain the skins out if necessary.
