things people ask

• How much grated apple should I fold into a bowl of oatmeal?
  Two to three tablespoons — roughly 11-16 g — gives a single serving of oatmeal a clear apple presence without thinning the texture. Grate it on the large holes of a box grater right before serving, since grated apple browns within minutes. If you're prepping overnight oats, stick to 2 tablespoons (10.6 g) and add a squeeze of lemon to slow the oxidation.
• How much finely diced apple goes into a vinaigrette?
  One to two tablespoons (5.3-10.6 g) of very finely diced apple per quarter cup of vinaigrette. The dice should be roughly 2-3 mm so pieces stay suspended rather than sinking. This works especially well in cider or mustard-based dressings; the apple bits read as crunchy sweetness against the acid rather than as chunks of fruit.
• How much apple per tablespoon for baby food prep?
  For a single-serving puree, 2-3 tablespoons of cooked, mashed apple — about 11-16 g — is a typical first-foods portion. The 5.3 g/tablespoon figure is for raw diced apple; cooked-and-mashed apple comes out slightly denser per tablespoon because the cell structure collapses. For batch prep, weigh in grams rather than measuring tablespoons of mash, since consistency varies.
