Really good grapes, firm and tight on the outside, but bursting into cool sweetness when you put them into your mouth, were one of the things the girls had never had quite enough of before.
Producing an index is like squeezing " a grape in a winepress" , wrote a 19th-century French scholar, " so that not even the tiniest drop of precious juice has been allowed to escape" .
Cooking with a rack in a pan you trap all the juices and the flavors, versus the grill a lot of your fat is gonna render down into the hot coals and steam back up.
The little brown seeds are packed snugly in the core at the centre of the apple, and all round about them there is a thick white covering which is sweet and juicy and good to eat.
