SC - Baked apples

[harper at idt.net]

Sorry, I don't remember who asked for this.  Granado does have a 
recipe for baked quinces, which can also be made with apples.  It's 
inside a pastry crust, so maybe it's closer to an apple dumpling.  I 
don't have time right now to translate it, but here's the gist:
half-roast the apple on a spit, wrapped in buttered paper.  Core it, 
fill the hole with cow's butter or marrow, sugar, cinnamon, and a 
whole clove.  Put inside a pastry crust made of white flour, butter, 
and egg yolks.  Bake and then serve hot or cold.  The recipe calls 
this a tartlet (pastellito), and says to make the box (like the 
Spanish equivalent of "coffin") just big enough for the apple, so it 
might be more like an individidual pie than a wrapped dumpling.
