    Here's one for Ukrainian Applekraut:

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Fermented Apples
    Categories: Apples, Pickles
    Yield: 1 Batch

    5 lb Apples
    5 qt Water
    2 c Rye flour
    4 tb Sugar or honey
    2 ts Salt

    Fermented apples, a regional specialty of central Ukraine, are used
    as a relish or an accompaniment to roasts, poultry, and game. They
    are somewhat similar to apples cured in sauerkraut but of a more
    delicate flavor. Although they are considered a delicacy by the old
    country gourmets, one has to be accustomed to them to enjoy their
    piquant taste. Ukrainian Canadian homemakers seldom, if ever, make
    them, but the recipe is worth preserving. When trying this recipe,
    select undamaged apples of a good quality and tart in flavor.

    Select ripe, undamaged apples with a tart flavor. Wash the apples
    thoroughly and remove the blossom ends. Place the apples in a crock.
    If cherry or currant leaves are available, arrange the apples and
    leaves in alternate layers. Bring the water to a boil. Pour half of
    the water over the flour and stir briskly until smooth. Add the
    remaining water and strain the mixture. Stir in the salt and sugar.
    Cool to lukewarm. Pour over the apples. allowing enough liquid to
    rise several inches above the apples. Cover with a plate and weight
    down with a suitable weight to keep the apples completely submerged.
    Keep at room temperature for 1 week and then store them. It will take
    5 to 8 weeks for the apples to ferment, depending on the variety
    used. During the process of fermentation, a scum will form on the
    surface. It should be removed and the plate washed as often as
    necessary. Store in a cold place.

    Apples may also be cured in a slightly sweetened water For this
    method, use 5 qt boiled water to 1 cup of sugar or honey and 2 ts
    salt. This method is less troublesome, and the results are equally
    good.
