Conserving apples
You can treat homegrown apples in the steam oven to
increase the length of time for which you can store them.
Once treated, the apples will keep for 5 to 6 months when
stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. This method
is only suitable for apples and not for other types of fruits with
a core.
