Kitchen Antics - Joy of the Baked Apple

Jimmy Weasel - Sunday, 13 November 2005 - Print The Wax

This recipe is a variation on a theme that the Old Boy showed me how to make many moons ago. It's a simple, quick and vaguely healthy (apples!) recipe that has only a few ingredients and minimal preparation time. As a result, there will be no metal or cheap Dutch beer to aid the experience.

Here's what you'll need.

  • 4 large green apples
  • 1 jar of seeded raspberry jam (blackberry will also do (not strawberry))
  • 30 mls Grappa
  • Freshly brewed espresso coffee

Add the Grappa and the coffee to a cup and drink. Then, take the apples, and carefully remove the cores using the technology we know as "an apple corer."

Fashion a plug for the base of your apple by cutting about 1 cm from the bottom of this apple-cylinder. Dispose the remainder of the cores - they are no longer of use to anyone.

Spoon in raspberry jam (you'll need about 2 - 3 teaspoons in each apple, depending upon their size) into the newly created void and wrap completely in aluminium foil.

Then put the apples into a roasting pan and let them sit in a hot (250 degrees) oven for 20 minutes.

Unwrap and serve with custard, and enjoy with another slug of the grappa & espresso

Lassitude abandons the Throwing Knives
Down on the chamber pot, the percolating smells brew up quite the nasal fest. From the wafting fumes, the air solidifies partial sweaty rock and musty punk, a taste hinting at delicious pockets of after-aftertaste, and the not so floral punch of an undone music interview leaves the tongue wanting something else.

The journey toward enlightenment need not begin in any particular direction so much as that it needs to begin at all - and if you create your own beery reality with which to illuminate yourself, enlightenment can indeed glass you in the jaw in the comfort of your own bathtub.

 

Undone, unbound, the sounds aground, life's taking the train with a soundtrack of harmonic dissonance, of inner turmoils and evolutionary spotchecking.
