City editor Sam here. 👋 One of my favorite memories as a kid was going to an apple orchard, picking my own apples, and making an apple pie with my grandmother for dessert.
We found two classic local recipes — one from the local 1950 cookbook, “Relishing recipes from rural Richland” + the other from the 1947 cookbook, “Favorite recipes of the Woman’s Club of Columbia, South Carolina.”
Take some tips from Kitty T. Young and make this Crum Top Apple Pie on page 130 or this Apple Pie recipe from Mrs. Leonard Ragsdale found on page 139 with the regional apples you bring home on your next apple-picking adventure.
