Apple Takeover, Part 1

DSC_0001Gorgeous apples of all shapes and sizes. Speckled uniquely, with underbellies, striated skin–a plane of antioxidants and fiber. Fruit–how glorious.

DSC_0003My first bunch would be a batch of scratchmade apple sauce. Simple and easy–but perfect.

IMG_5469In the theme of autumn brown, I made tamarind-glazed tofu in the broiler. My chuck of tamarind dearly needs a turnover. I will deal with this come VV’s Pantry Turnover month (January).

IMG_5470Broiling is my new favorite cooking method for tofu.
