Sauces: Calvados Applesauce

1 lb. Gala apples
1/2 cup water

Peel and core apples and cut into 1" pieces.  Bring apples, water, sugar, zest, and cinnamon to a boil in a 2 qt. heavy saucepan, stirring occasionally, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, 15 mins.  Remove lid and simmer until most of the liquid is evaporated, 5-10 mins.  Add Calvados and simmer, stirring occasionally, 1 min.  Mash apples with potato masher or a fork to coarse sauce, then cool.  May be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
