My grandma use to dip them in lemon juice first, then string them up to dry. She said the lemon juice wasn't necessary if you didn't mind them turning brown. I've never tried any of the apple recipes, but there are several different ways to preserve apples in the Foxfire books.

I was too young to remember what they did with them first but I know the couple that lived down the road from us would slice them then lay them out on picnic tables and cover them with a sheet.
I loved them things too.

I remember my granny slicing and laying on aluminum foil under the back glass in my papaw's "66 Impala. Man that car smelled good!
