As I become more and more dedicated (read: obsessed) with pie, this blog may take an undetermined recess on all other topics until I get my fix. Pictured above are local Mutsu apples. Being unbelievably large and very green, these guys draw you right in with a cartoon-like apple-ish glow. The Mutsu has a mellow sweetness and just enough crispness to suggest it would do well in an apple pie, and as bonus, I only needed to slice up four in order to fill the eight inch shell below.
