Apple Pie

 originally from https://sweetlittlebluebird.com/grandma-oples-famous-apple-pie/, but I changed it quite a bit

 

Ingredients

 *1 recipe for 9 inch double pie crust, or store bought

• 8 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1.5 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar

1. Assemble pie

2. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. 

3. Add flour and stir to form a paste; cook until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. 

4. Add both sugars and water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 3 - 5 minutes. 

5. Remove from the heat. 

6. Pour sauce over pie

Bake in the preheated 425* oven for 15 10 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking until apples are soft, 35 to 45 15 minutes. 

Fresh Corn Salad

 

Ingredients

• 4 (5-6 was too much... not enough sauce) ears fresh corn husks and silk removed
• 10 oz grape or cherry tomatoes about 2 cups
• ⅓ cup sliced green onions (about 2-3 green onions)
• ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
• 1½ tablespoons Olive Oil
• 2½ tablespoons red wine vinegar
• ½ 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
•  
  

  Instructions

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add corn and return to a boil, cooking for about 5-7 minutes. When corn is done boiling, immediately plunge in a bowl of ice water for a few minutes to cool off. Tip: Due to the shape of corn, using a 9×13 baking pan of ice water works well!
• Remove corn from ice bath and blot dry. Use a sharp knife to remove corn kernels from cobs and place corn in a mixing bowl.
• Cut tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl. Add green onions as well.
• Add olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and toss to coat. At this point it is best to chill the salad. I prefer to chill for 1-2 hours minimum, and up to several hours, or even overnight. The flavor improves as it sits!
• When ready to serve, add feta and chopped basil and stir to distribute
