Chunky applesauce is a sweet and smooth preparation made from cooked apples, in which small pieces of fruit are preserved to provide texture and freshness. It is a very versatile ingredient in the kitchen, used in both sweet recipes and some savory ones to add a natural, fruity touch.
Origin: Applesauce is traditional in various European and Latin American cultures, where the apple has been a very popular and accessible fruit. Its simple preparation, which involves cooking apples with a little water and sometimes sugar or cinnamon, allows the fruit to be preserved and enjoyed throughout the year.
Properties: Applesauce is a natural source of dietary fiber, especially if it includes pieces of the pulp. It contains vitamins such as vitamin C and antioxidants inherent to apples. Being cooked, it is easy to digest and low in fat, making it a healthy ingredient for all types of diets. Furthermore, its natural sweetness reduces the need to add refined sugars in recipes.
Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: Puré de manzana con trozos, dulce de manzana con trozos, compota de manzana troceada.
