Apple crisp is honestly so delicious especially when its warm and served with creamy vanilla ice cream. The first time I had apple crisp was in elementary and ever since then I’ve always loved it. During the Thanksgiving breaking 4 years ago I was spending it with my sister and we were making the menu and I had the idea of making it for the first time. When it comes to making apple crisp I only follow one recipes. I follow Land ‘O’ Lakes recipe it was the first recipe I followed and from now on the only recipe I follow. Apple crisp is a very simple recipe. The hardest process in my opinion was picking the right apples. Apples range from tart to very sweet and with apple crisp the apples you pick can vary the taste. After making the recipe on many different occasion I found that doing a combination of different apple types is honestly the best. Apple crisp isn’t a complicated recipe it’s very simple to make. Apples, old fashion oats, brown sugar, all purpose flour, Land ‘O’ Lakes Cinnamon Sugar Butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and of course a little allspice to finish it off. …show more content…
You chose the type of apples you would like to use from the range of sweet to tart. I like using Gala, Granny Smith, and Honey Crisp so I get the complete range. You want to have 6 medium apples, but I like my apple crisp to be thick, so I use 7-9 apples, you must peel, core, and slice the apples. To make apple crisp you must ¾ cup combine oats, ¾ cup brown sugar, and ½ cup flour into a bowl. After combining those ingredients add in ½ cup of the Cinnamon Sugar butter and you want to mix it in with a fork because it’s going to be very coarse like a crumble topping. You’re going to bake it for 20-35 mins until the topping is golden brown to
A major characteristic of New York style pizza is that it is hand tossed. It has a thin crust that is crispy on
Nutritionism and Today’s Diet Nutritionism is the ideology that the nutritional value of a food is the sum of all its individual nutrients, vitamins, and other components. In the book, “In Defense of Food” by Michael Pollan, he critiques scientists and government recommendations about their nutritional advice. Pollan presents a strong case pointing out the many flaws and problems that have risen over the years of following scientific studies and government related warnings on the proper amount of nutrients needed for a healthy diet. Pollan’s main point is introducing science into our food system has had more of a negative impact than a positive one, we should go back to eating more of a traditional diet. I believe food science has given us
Although chocolate bars are thought to have been more enjoyed by a younger consumer, crispy crunch has always focused towards older demographics. This is shown through their mature packaging commercials.
If you are a teenager or young adult looking for a compelling and intriguing book to read, then I would recommend Apple and Rain, written by award winning author Sarah Crossan. When I first picked up the book, I did not think that I would enjoy it as much as I did. There were plenty of realistic and relatable events throughout the novel.
Michael Pollan makes arguments concerning the eating habits of the average American. Pollan suggests, in spite of our cultural norms, we should simply “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly Plants.”
First look i get from this pie that it is well made. Also made with lots of care. The pie has three layers a top layer that is soft. The second layer is a cherry paste with chances of cherry in the inside of the paste. The bottom layer is a crunchy crust the extends and connects to the the top layer.When I took my first bite into this pie i get a very sharp cherry taste right away. once the cherry taster is gone you get the taste of the top and bottom layer witch have a sweet but not very tasteful taste. As you take more bites into this pie the taste of cherry gets emphasized a lot and the crust and top layer start to fade away. The parts of the pie do not really help the sharp taste of the cherry inside of the pie. After tasting this well constructer pie i give it a 9/10, because it has a great cherry taste yet the other parts of the pie could support the cherry taste and help make it
From all historical accounts, it seems that fruit pies as we now know them were invented by the Pennsylvania Dutch. Women in the southeastern counties of the state made delicious, crispy pies encasing every fruit in the region. “It may be,” states Frederick Klees, “that during the Revolution men from the other colonies came to know this dish in Pennsylvania and carried this knowledge back home to establish pie as the great American dessert” (191). Additionally, this pie gained popularity at the triumphant end of the war and the beginning of our country. The recipe migrated north, farmer’s wives learned to make this more involved pie, and consumption swelled. Colonists loved pie so much they ate it for every meal, but, notably, not every farmer could afford it. Thus, pies evolved into a symbol of status. Thomas Jefferson made his own recipe, Ben Franklin grew prize apples in his backyard for his pies, and Martha Washington even served this dessert at diplomatic dinners! Indeed it is the fruition of this unique, thick, two-crusted apple pie, rather than the thin, one-crust English pie, in which we invest our pride. Ever wonder why July 4th parties are marked by apple pies? It’s a carryover from first Independence Day celebrations when the apple pie was at its peak importance to Americans.
Society and the mass media are heavily influenced by popular culture, and vice versa. People see and use popular culture as a way of distracting themselves from reality. Many of us place all our importance and focus on material items; people often times worry about the face of their image in the digital world, which incidentally impacts them in the actual world. Living in the current age of technology shows the significance of how much people rely on technology to get distracted from reality. iPhones, iPads, and other smart technology devices are seen everywhere you go. How does a company such as Apple spread and grow into popular culture? Steve Jobs, cofounder of Apple, exclaimed early in his career, in 1993, that, “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me…Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful…That’s what matters to me” (Isaacson). Because of that mentality, he was able to fill today’s society with iDevices and “Apple culture.” Apple culture is essentially ones world controlled by Apple. It roots back to how Apple does business, which impacts us, the consumers; this is why you see many people walking around with iPhones, iPods, iPads, etc. Apple is able to control the society’s “wants” of technology (Jobs). Their technology has specific features that take communication, sharing, and business to another level. Apple, without a doubt, has a strong influence on popular culture.
Apple cider as a health drink has been gaining popularity. It is believed to provide a number of health benefits, including lowering blood sugar levels and lowering cholesterol. However, it is most popularly linked with weight loss.
Processed foods are in everybody’s lives, but are they safe? Processed foods are foods that are in boxes, cans, or bags usually containing artificial colors, flavors, and other chemical ingredients that most people can’t pronounce or recognize (SFGate). Processed Foods may taste good but can have terrible side effects. Most people don’t see the harmful effects of processed foods. Processed foods should not be eaten.
When we think of a company, we usually just think of the end product; for example, we think of the iPhone and Apple, HP laptops and Hewlett Packard, and Pepsi and Pepsi Inc. As consumers, we do not take into account the process that takes place to transform raw materials into finished goods. In terms of the Apple iPhone, we don’t think of the glass screen, the battery, the charger and the hundreds of different parts that make up the phone, we just see the end result.
America is a capitalist society. It should come to a surprise when we live like this daily. We work for profit. We’ll buy either for pleasure or to sell later for profit. It should come to no surprise that our food is made the same way because we are what we eat. We are capitalist that eat a capitalist meal. So we must question our politics. Is our government system to blame for accepting and encouraging monopolies?
As we see iPhone is the biggest revenue contributor for Apple and company heavily relies on it. Although there are many different competitors, Samsung has been the biggest one especially when it comes to high end smartphones. As of 2015 Apple market share of high end smart phones is 57%, it has been consistent high since first iPhone came out. However, Samsung is catching up with a market share of 27% in 2015, compare to just 18% in 2011 (Business insider). But situation looks different in smartphone market in general. According to IDC (International Data Corporation), Apple’s iPhone had a market share of 14.9% at the end of 1Q17, compared to 15.4% last year. Despite Samsung’s Galaxy S7 fiasco, Samsung continued to lead the global smartphone market with a 22.8% share, compared to 23.8% in the same period last year (Market Realist). Samsung provided
American culture is changing dramatically. In some areas it’s a good thing, but in other areas, like our food culture, it can have negative affects. It is almost as if our eating habits are devolving, from a moral and traditional point of view. The great America, the land of the free and brave. The land of great things and being successful, “living the good life.” These attributes highlight some irony, especially in our food culture. Is the American food culture successful? Does it coincide with “good living”? What about fast and processed foods? These industries are flourishing today, making record sales all over the globe. People keep going back for more, time after time. Why? The answer is interestingly simple. Time, or in other words, efficiency. As people are so caught up in their jobs, schooling, sports, or whatever it may be, the fast/processed food industries are rapidly taking over the American food culture, giving people the choice of hot
