A taste of apples through time, with three historical recipes tried, tested and adapted for the contemporary kitchen by food historian Tasha Marks.
The Museum of Cider in Hereford has curated an exhibition of apples and pears in honour of Gillian Bulmer (1935-2021). Compiled with the help of fruit growers and cider makers in Herefordshire, Shropshire, Somerset, Gloucestershire, and Wales, the exhibition features over 360 plates of fruit.
In poetry and literature the apple is often a microcosm of our own existence – often mapping the seasons, the taste of youth, the ripening of age.

A passage from 'Looking beyond Skin through Apples' by Rocky Mol Selvaraj:
'India’s Caste system is one of the most rigid and resilient social stratifications that has challenged the passage of time and is conserved through familial traditions and culture. It is an extremely complex structure with its beauty and contradictions – like that of skin. Determined by birth, caste is an inescapable skin that shapes daily life and social interactions.'
Rocky Mol Selvaraj hails from Pudukkottai in South-West India.
