This week, we asked for your best apple recipes.

THIS WEEK'S WINNER:

Bacon-apple-onion tart by Felicia Lee: As a child, Felicia had very distinct ideas about apples (that is: Get them away from my dinner), but as she grew up into a trained pastry chef, things changed. Now she's using them as the star in this satisfying "pie" with bacon and onions.

THIS WEEK'S CATEGORY WINNERS:

The Winter Angel by Diana Adams: A literally fresh take on a classic cocktail featuring the intense, concentrated apple flavor of Calvados, Diana brightens it up with just-squeezed apple juice as well for a sophisticated tipple. Chile-lime green apple salad by Linda Shiue: Taking inspiration from travels in Southeast Asia, where unripe fruits like papaya and mango are often used in savory, tart, refreshing chile-hot salads, Linda brings the delicious pain to sweet-sour green apples, rounding them out with the richness of peanuts.
