Cooking with Sake: Easy Apple Pie

Apple pie takes time when you try to make them properly. However, you can make a mini-size apple pie in a minute simply by cutting out frozen puff pastry dough into a round shape. Apples are richer in flavor when poached with sake. Also, mixing sake with egg yolk for glazing gives a beautiful gloss to the apple pie when it is baked!
