Fried Apple Pies 2 Georgia apples, peeled HOG From page iB off the peppers and pour the boiling water over the chili peppers. Let them soak about 30 minutes, turning them over occasionally. When they are soft, puree in a blender along with the onions, the other two garlic cloves (peeled) and 1 tea spoon salt. NOTE: I used medium hot peppers and the stew was not at all spicy. If you want really spicy stew, use hotter peppers. When the pork is done, remove it to a cutting board and shred the meat with two forks. Discard any bones. Return the pork to the broth and add the chili sauce, canned tomatoes and hominy. Mto Wmm'& pmm One mile North of Montezuma, Hwy. 49 • *j Hours: Mon.-Sat. 9:ooam-s:3opm • Sun.
