Coq au Vin With Prunes Recipe
The standard coq au vin, even when it is made with shortcuts, is a hearty dish, what with its bacon, garlic, deep red wine and enrichment of butter But the one I like best is made with prunes: it's darker, richer, fuller, the kind of recipe one adores and makes repeatedly The prunes melt into the wine and become barely recognizable, bringing even more depth, not only of color but of flavor
olive oil, chicken, onions, salt pork, garlic, prunes, pinot noir, butter optional

Apple Butter Recipe
A great answer to that eternal question — “What do I do with all these apples?” — apple butter is a sweetened, concentrated, lightly spiced spread that’s smoother than jam and thicker than applesauce and fantastic on buttered toast, thinned with vinegar as a sauce for pork chops, or used to top breakfast treats like pancakes, waffles or biscuits The apples here are intentionally left unpeeled and uncored to take advantage of the extra flavor in the peels and pectin-rich cores (A pass through a food mill or sieve after cooking will pull them out.) As for the ideal apple butter apple — well, there is none
apples, apple cider vinegar, allspice, cinnamon, ginger, star anise, sugar, brown sugar
