Mmmmm…. Apples

Apple tree in front of a castle.As some of you may know, I’m a fan of apples (the fruit, not the electronics). Well, I found the Wood’s Cider Mill website. They sell boiled cider, cider jelly and cider syrup. All of these products are made by boiling fresh pressed cider over a wood fire and condensing the product. I’m thinking I might be making an order in the near future. I’ve been seeing some cooking shows using their products, and I want to try some of the recipes (and some of my own). I think I might be able to make a killer pork loin with a cider glaze. Also, the boiled cider apparently can be used as an apple juice concentrate.

Contemplating My Yule Dinner

This Thursday, I will be fixing a standing rib roast using Alton Brown’s recipe. For sides, I am preparing fingerling potatos in butter and garlic (in the slow cooker) and steamed broccoli. I am also wanting to bake a loaf of bread, but I only have one oven. Does anyone have suggestions for an easy bread recipe that I can bake in the oven while I am letting the roast rest?
