I can't wait for the massive wave of surplus apples. There are orchards all around and apples become so abundant and cheap so quickly. Plus jugs of freshly crushed cider they can't even sell fast enough. You'll never taste apples anywhere else like a New England orchard in September

Years ago, a girl took me over to her apartment. She wanted to screw, but I was apprehensive because she was crazier than a shithouse rat. Anyway, she pulled a gallon of cider out of her fridge and started chugging it right from the bottle. She said it was amazing. Then, for some reason, she says it was unfiltered and unpasteurized. I said, "Gee, I wonder how many birds shit on those apples?" She almost threw up at the thought of it. It still puts a smile on my face to this day.

I hated fall when I was a kid because it meant going back to school. But now as a grown ass man I think fall is easily the best time of the year. I'm so tired of the heat of summer, winter is a fucking nightmare, and spring is alright but way too inconsistent and short.

I really pity people who live in places where the weather really never changes. Having four distinct seasons is kino as fuck and gives a real sense of structure to your years.

The whole "pumpkin spice" thing has gone ridiculously overboard. And combined with the absurd seasonal desync in retail, local beer stores are already selling pumpkin goybrew when it's not even September yet (which is the time for Oktoberfest marzen properly speaking). That said, picrel is now my go-to since it's much less sweet than all the sugary pumpkin ales and "pumpkin pie" milkshake stouts.

that is actually quite sad if you acks me.

I have my own secret groves of feral apples in the woods that are nearly impossible to get to because of vines and prickers, but also nobody would be aware of their existence because this area is so sparsely populated and there's no real passable trail nearby.

the area was a farm dating back to the 1690s but it's gone feral an overgrown for about the last 140 years, save for about 60acres that the current property owners keep clear for hay. lots of native crabapples growing alongside larger cider apples that probably have some fucked up heritage going back to the 1750s. I try to brave the prickers every September and harvest a few bucket loads of them. the little yellow crabbies are the sweetest and almost taste like pears and make great pies, while the big red and green ones make a really powerful applesauce that, without sugar, would act as verjuice if you wanted to cook with it. haven't gotten into fermenting cider but it was always something i wanted to use them for.

no access to the apples nowadays as I have moved far away :[

>>18270451
If you roast them, they're sweeter and richer. If you're making it for a main course, sure. But sometimes I prefer just to peel and cube up the squash straight into the water, it's lighter. I fry the onions until sweet in butter, and caramelize the paste. Deglaze with brandy or sherry if you're feeling cheeky. Add the squash and some stock, boil until totally soft, blend it all smooth. Finish with some thyme leaves and heavy cream, adjust salt, syrup, cayenne and white pepper to taste. If for an entree, toast sage in some butter, and drizzle the brown butter around and garnish the leaves with some seeds or chives or something.

Honestly if I could move to a place that was fall year round, I would in a heartbeat. Obviously wouldn't make any earthly sense, but the atmosphere this time of year is great. Air is clear and rainy, its gloomy but in a comfy way, crunching leaves and the best holiday of the year - halloween. Can't beat it.

How to:
>Get the 32oz can of pumpkin puree
>Instead of ground beef, use ground turkey in order to be extra Autumny
>Cook the ground turkey to a light brown, add a can of red kidney beans & if you'd like another can of black beans
>Pour in a 32oz can of diced tomatoes
>Add in the can of pumpkin puree
>Mix in diced onion, and red or orange bell pepper
>Sprinkle in a bunch of black pepper
>Pour in a hefty amount of chili powder, maybe some paprika too
>Add a teaspoon of pumpkin spice seasoning. If you have separate cinnamon available, add a half-teaspoon of it additionally (regardless if the pumpkin spice has cinnamon in it)
>Stir until done

Nothing too elaborate or labor intensive...375 degrees, mix per 1 lb. of ground meat, 3 cups of al dente rotini or penne, 26 oz of pasta sauce, 1/3 cup of grated romano (or parm) chez, into a 9x13 pan and top with 1.5 cups of shredded mozz/italian chez, bake 25 minutes. Serve with salad and garlic bread. I do another one that has a creamy tomato sauce with ricotta mixed in. Sometimes I'll do an alfredo sauce with sliced italian saus links and pasta.

my family isn't real big on making special Thanksgibbon or Christmas meals, and my mother literally never made stuffing when I was growing up; but come Sept/Oct I love roasting chickens in the oven with some nutmeg and then on the lower oven shelf baking a giant pan of bread stuffing. Everyone fucking loves it.

My gf loves my pumpkin pie and looks forward to it every year. I'm "that guy" and will spend a day in advance carving out and roasting sugar pie pumpkins. When you get it right and immersion-blend the pumpkin so it's not all fiber-y, it completely changes the pumpkin pie experience. If you have the time I HIGHLY recommend trying it.

Alright, so:
You wanna get yourself some sugar pie pumpkins. You can't just get regular old jack-o-lantern pumpkins or it will taste like shit. Cut off the stem, scoop out all the gunk (save pumpkin seeds for roasting) and cut into manageable pieces. Coat with a light layer of oil and poke holes in the rind. Roast for 2-3 hours or until fork tender.

After roasting you can peel the rinds off and discard. Put your pumpkin in a big bowl, mash it by hand and wrap it in cheese cloth. Squeeze as much of the juice out as you can (it has a lot of water content). Now, using an immersion blender, blend heavily until it resembles canned pumpkin. Now you have fresh pumpkin puree for using in a variety of fall dishes. You can keep it in the fridge for a week or two or freeze for a few months.

For the pie, you'll need:
2 + 1/2 cups of pumpkin puree (can adjust to your liking)
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1.5 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp ginger
1 1/2 cup condensed milk

Combine and pour into pie crust. If you want a homemade pie crust recipe, I have that too.

Bake at 425F for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350F and bake until a knife poked into the center comes out clean and it no longer jiggles. 30-40 mins give or take.

Best served with a dollop of whipped cream.

Very detailed, thank you Anon sensei.
>Combine and pour into pie crust. If you want a homemade pie crust recipe, I have that too.
And the crust, how do you make your homemade crust?

[Anonymous No.18278930]

>>18278898
For the crust, you'll need:
2 + 1/2 cups of all purpose flour (quality flour = quality crust. I like King Arthur's unbleached.)
6 tbsp cold butter
1 cup vegetable shortening
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp salt
a dash of rosemary (adds a fall warmth: my secret)
1/2~ cup ice cold water
optional splash of neutral flavored alcohol, like vodka, for chewiness

Whisk together the flour, salt, rosemary and brown sugar.

Cut the butter and shortening into the flour mixture. You can do this via food processor or by hand. I prefer to do it by hand, squeezing everything together until a coarse crumb forms.

Add your ice water and splash of liquor slowly and mix until it all glops together into a big doughball. Streaks of butter/shortening are okay, this will make it flaky. If it's too sticky, add a bit more flour.

Coat your hands and counter in flour, take the doughball out of the bowl and knead it. Not too long though, you don't want to overwork the gluten in the dough. Divide it in half. Wrap both balls in plastic and let it rest in the fridge for a couple hours for maximum moisture.

It's been a long time since I've made any. Dry stuffing is the worst, I'd rather end up with soggy stuffy than dry stuffing. It's pretty much just savory bread pudding. I like tons of sage, parsley, and celery, and use organ meats from the bird and very concentrated broth to flavor it.
