This easy English muffins recipe was inspired by Model Bakery in Napa, California, which fries them in clarified butter. I revised the recipe for a simpler, faster version and kept the frying method!
Apple-Tarragon Turkey Sloppy Joes
A more wholesome version of the ever-popular sloppy joe using ground turkey instead of ground beef. You'll get sweetness from the apples, a subtle hint of anise from the tarragon, and a burst of aromatic flavor from the cloves. Be adventuresome, step outside the box, and give it a try!
