Spiced Apples and Raisins
Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence

Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced in 1/2-inch-thick wedges
Leaves from 2 fresh thyme sprigs
1/4 cup raisins
3/4 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Pinch cardamom
Pinch dry mustard
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Juice of 1/2 lemon

Instructions
Melt the butter in a clean skillet over medium-low
heat. Add the apples and thyme and coat in the butter; cook and stir for 8 minutes
to give them some color. Toss in the raisins and add the apple juice, stirring to
scrape up the brown bits. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and
dry mustard; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze in the lemon juice to wake up
the flavor and simmer for 10 minutes or until the apples break down and soften.
Serve spiced apples and raisins with holiday pork, turkey or ham.
