This is a very standard apple pie filling that could come from anywhere in
America.
Pare, core, and quarter the apples. Boil the cores and parings in sugar and
water; strain off the liquor, adding more sugar; put the lemon rind over
the apples and the juice into the syrup. Mix cloves with the fruit; put in
a piece of butter the size of a walnut. Turn the fruit into a pastry-lined
pie shell. Add a small quantity of juice. Top the pie and add more juice
later if desired. Bake in a 450? oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350?
and bake for 3/4 to 1 hour or until done.
