Rooted... How do I unroot?

I have one of the early Fires, and proceeded to root it. Now I have forgotten about the process, except I remember temporarily bricking it. Was able to recover by building a "factory" cable with 5v on pin 4. So it is rooted but otherwise stock except for enabling the play store and loading a bunch of android apps. I have decided I would rather have the stock Kindle configuration back for reading and ease of downloading ebooks, so a few questions:

Should I remove the android apps, or will I be able to use them after going back to original?

I assume I did the usual backups when I rooted. Will it be as simple as restoring the backup, or will there be files I will have to reload?

Is this going to turn into a big hassle or would I be better off just leaving it alone?

If anyone can post step by step directions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for reading this.
