paradise is a bit too green

Dave writes about apples - in particular the pink lady, which is not a bad apple at all. He also talks about the Jazz variety which I found in the local upmarket supermarket a while back. I found them nice, but not so much to rave about. It could have been the growing climate - France, or just the supermarket imposed flavour destruction via cold storage and shipping , I bought them because I miss the quality Braeburns from back home.

It made me realise that Apple season is just around the corner over here - and it might be a good idea to prioritise that decent oven before it arrives. I wrote about baking with of one of the true classic apples last autumn - the Danish Gravenstien.
