8 Spices Apple Crumble with Crème Anglaise from Open Farm Community. Deceptively simplistic labelling, but the “crumble” here is a sum of many distinct parts – part warm and lovingly sweet apple chunks, part hard and nutty crunch, and part chao tar and intensely smoky bits which evoke memories of…
Scallop, Apples, Bacon from Pluck – pan-seared scallops, roasted Granny Smith apples, hazelnut crumble, bacon tuile and caramel.
