Gala Apples

 

This past week at La Domestique was all about cooking with apples. I visited a local apple orchard, and the difference in taste from supermarket apples was substantial. Freshly harvested apples are crisp and juicy, with a sweet, floral aroma and full, bright flavor. Here at La Domestique we explored the different varieties of apples and how to use them in both savory and sweet cooking.

 

In case you missed anything, I’ve got a recap:

 

Monday:  Announcing apples as the ingredient of the week.

Tuesday:  10 Ways Tuesday! Creative ideas for cooking with apples.

Wednesday:  Cook in the moment- hand pies filled with apple butter.

Thursday:  The story behind apples: growing, varieties, storing, cooking, and flavor pairing.

Friday:  Recipe for Chicken, Apples, and Cream à la Normande.
