This new-fashioned apple crisp tastes like the classic, but better.
A couple of years ago, I read a few lines in the introduction of Zoe Nathan’s cookbook,, that have forever changed the way I bake. She contends that most baking recipes don't call for enough salt, so as a rule of thumb, double the amount! It’ll make your recipe taste"a million times better,” she explains, since salt is needed to make baked goods taste like something other than sugar.
Take this Skillet Miso-Apple Crisp, a rework of a standby version I've been making for years. Rather than simply adding salt to the filling and topping, I turned to miso, one of my all-time favorite condiments. Miso imparts not only saltiness but an unmistakable umami flavor that adds so much oomph and interest to sweet and savory dishes alike. I also used salted butter to amp up the overall flavor of the filling and crumble topping.
All of these simple tips and tricks result in a new-fashioned apple crisp that tastes like the classic, but. Maybe even a million times better! It's not too salty, it's not too sweet—it's somewhere in the middle which allows the flavor of the apples to really shine through. I can think of no better minimum-effort, maximum-reward dessert out there. So do yourself a favor and make this one for your next dinner party.
