Panade aux Pommes Not Your Classic Apple Pie from Provence
Ginger and Nutmeg hosted a July 4th dinner party while in Provence in honour of their US friends. The menu included traditional and non-standard elements. Although the intent was to celebrate the US holiday, the menu might be considered a melange of Mexican, American, and French cuisine. The recipe below for Panade ux Pommes is not a traditional apple pie but a delicious Provencal version. Explore the original post.
