Brace yourselves for a high-stakes food fight. Self-proclaimed “worldwide pre-eminent apple ranker” Brian Frange—comedian and creator of Apple Rankings—brings brazen apple claims to #MilkStreetRadio. Granny Smiths are bad for eating. Yellow apples are better than green apples. The Red Delicious is a “leather glove.” And while the Lucy Glo looks like an “unhealed surgical wound,” it’s an A++ apple. Get your oven mitts for these and more hot takes, folks.
Plus: reporter Katie Thornton joins us to discuss the history and ingenuity of the Frankfurt Kitchen, the blueprint for space-saving kitchen design; Adam Gopnik revels in the alchemical wonder of stovetop cooking; and we make Indian-Spiced Smashed Potatoes.
