  • You don’t need to slave over a stove for 3 hours to get caramelized onion. Here’s what you do. After slicing the onion, get the pan up to a medium heat with a splash of oil. Toss in the onions and add a bit of salt to make them sweat. Once they start to dry out, go golden at the edges, and even stick to the pan a bit, add a splash of water. You do have to stir continuously for this method as well, but it takes much less time. Do this process a few times where you add water, cook it until its dry, another splash of water, cook it until it dries out again, etc. Sometimes I’ll even alternate in a splash of white wine for fun. You should have beautiful caramelized onions in 30 min with this method.
























  • 100% apples my friend. I used a mandolin to slice the apples so that they were thin and uniform, but its hard to slice ALL of it right? So I took the little left over slivers, chopped them down, and cooked them into a soft apple pie filling with some sugar, lemon, a splash of white wine. Then I spread that into the par-baked crust before arranging the slices on top as you see. It made it taste really good, I’m glad I did that, but it was sort of something I came up with on the spot
