    apple_pie

    I was talking just the other day with a friend…who is an apple pie expert of sorts…
    and she was telling me about the very best apple pie…her favorite … but before I tell
    you the very best pie ingredients…. you should know…apple pie is made with apples…
    crust, sugar and spices…the best spice to use is cinnamon! With lots of sugar —
    the sweeter the better…you can make sure that your apple pie is made with these,
    and then to top it off… Pie ala mode with not regular vanilla, but French vanilla
    ice cream. You can try other combinations of spices or other things…but sandy
    swears this is the best..and she would know!

    If you ever find yourself in California, don’t leave without
    trying the signature California cuisine! California is known for
    trying new combinations of ingredients, even if they are not
    mainstream America. Fresh produce is used every time to
    create food that is healthy and tastes like it. Traditionally, cooks
    avoid using too many ingredients at once. The idea is to produce
    food that relies on the natural taste of the food rather than
    lots of ingredients that convolute the palate. Is there one type of
    California cuisine? The answer is no, experimentation is however
    the common denominator, with cooks never making the same dish
    twice exactly the same.
