How much is a peck of apples?
Q: I have an old recipe that calls for a peck of apples.
In today's language, what makes up a peck? Is it two gallons,
1 pail? Thanks.
A: Two dry gallons make a peck and four pecks make
a bushel And that is about all I know on the weighty subject
of pecks and bushels!
Enjoy the recipes,
