Step 6Make sauce!
Pour the hot cooked apples into the bowl, then rinse the pan out and set it next to the bowl.
Using the handled strainer or the slotted spoon, scoop up a small amount of the apples and put them into your food mill or strainer. Leave the juice in the bowl, you'll add it later.
--A Brief Word About the Foley Food Mill
My mother has one, her mother had one, my dad's mom had one, and I'm pretty sure her mom had one. It is the coolest low-tech food processor since the knife. I found mine at a local thrift store for about $4, and I use it constantly. There may be an electric appliance to do the same thing, but there is nothing better for making applesauce.
If you're using the Foley, just turn the crank, and add apples as the strainer part gets empty. Don't throw out the peelings and seeds yet.
If you're using a strainer, start mashing the soft apple through the mesh using the rubber spatula.
After you've mashed all the cooked apples through you mill or strainer, put the peelings and seeds back into the bowl with the juice. (You DID save the juice, right?) Stir it around to get all the bits of apple into the juice, then pour that mixture into the food mill or strainer to get the last little bit into the pot.

This was maybe 1/2" thick. I actually added a LOT more, 'cause I like ginger. You could also use dried ginger powder, I'd use about 1/2 as much ginger as cinnamon.
