I began immediately to flag the pages (a sure sign that I may actually cook from a book) but then paused on page 90, at a recipe titled, Apple-Red Wine Tart. David, what a great idea!I poach pears and apples in red wine and a variety of spices nearly every fall, but it never occurred to me to expand the concept into a tart. How lovely that would that be. I actually went as far as buying a bottle of inexpensive, but hopefully decent, merlot to try the recipe when another mental pause occurred.What if I macerated the apples in reduced apple cider, instead of wine? I knew from past cooking adventures, such as Spiced Apple Cider Caramel Sauce, that reducing and then caramelizing apple cider produces the most sublime nectar imaginable. I wondered if I could combine this idea with my Caramelized Pear &#038; Anise Tart (not yet posted). And this superb tart is the result of all that wondering and David’s inspiring new cookbook.

Much of summer’s fruit and produce is still available, while the first of the apples, pears, and winter squash are arriving at farmers markets. Days are still delectably warm, but evenings have begun to cool. I am rustling through leaves on my evening walks through the lovely neighborhoods of Northwest Portland. ]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://thelunacafe.com/indian-summer-tomato-orange-sweet-onion-salad/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>6</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Spiced Apple Cider Caramel Sauce</title><link>http://thelunacafe.com/spiced-apple-cider-caramel-sauce/</link> <comments>http://thelunacafe.com/spiced-apple-cider-caramel-sauce/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 08 Nov 2008 20:46:39 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Susan S.

Imagine a dark caramel sauce with the additional flavor and acidity of tart green apples. I love it on everything in the Fall season--over vanilla bean or sweet corn gelato, with warm-spiced roasted apples, alongside pumpkin bread pudding, with beignet or ebelskiver, over delicate cottage cheese pancakes or Swedish flespannkaka (small, crepe-like pancakes with bits of rendered salt pork) , and most especially with Spiced Pumpkin Sour Cream Upside-Down Cake with Caramelized Cranberry Hazelnut Topping and Orange Cream.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://thelunacafe.com/spiced-apple-cider-caramel-sauce/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>6</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Spiced Pumpkin Sour Cream Upside-Down Coffee Cake</title><link>http://thelunacafe.com/spiced-pumpkin-sour-cream-upside-down-coffee-cake/</link> <comments>http://thelunacafe.com/spiced-pumpkin-sour-cream-upside-down-coffee-cake/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 03 Nov 2008 03:54:36 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Susan S.
