Apples are a versatile fruit used in diverse culinary applications. Predominantly sold as fresh fruit, they can be cooked or eaten fresh. They are frequently used as a pastry filling, with apple pie being perhaps the archetypal American dessert. In Europe, fried apples often accompany sausage or pork dishes. Apples are also processed into vinegar, juice, jelly, applesauce, and apple butter, and are used to make both sweet and hard (alcoholic) cider, apple wine, and brandy.
