Desserts, such as this recipe for apple cream, were a lot different back in the day than they are now. This particular recipe was published during World War 1.
Apple Cream
Strain 1 cup of apple sauce through a sieve, add to it a tablespoon of lemon juice, a little grated lemon rind, a pinch of salt, sugar to taste, and the unbeaten whites of three eggs.
Beat with a whisk until it is stiff enough to hold its shape.
Chill thoroughly and serve with whipped cream.

While this recipe is untested by StrangeAgo, it would be something fun to try out, especially if you have an apple tree or two growing out in the yard.
