Chop the apples into quarters and put them in a large Dutch oven.

  • 2 whole allspice berries
  • 2 whole cloves
Add the sliced orange, the chopped ginger, the cinnamon sticks, the allspice berries, the cloves and the whole nutmeg.

Cover, bring to a simmer over high heat, then lower the heat as far as it goes and simmer gently two hours until the apples are completely soft.
Uncover and simmer about 30 more minutes to concentrate the flavours.
