Cumin Apple Chips Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Farenheit.
• Line a baking sheet with baking pad or parchment.
• Sift together confectioners sugar and cumin twice to mix thoroughly.
• Sift half of the cumin sugar evenly onto the baking sheet.
• Cut apple crosswise into very thin, round slices (about 1/16 of an inch thick) with a mandoline.
• Arrange the 20 largest slices nearly touching on the baking sheet.(There will be some left over.).
• Evenly sift remaining sugar over slices.
• Bake slices in middle of oven until pale golden and beginning to crisp, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Immediately peel chips off pad or parchment and cool on a rack.
• Note: The remaining apples? Try the same thing, but use cinnamon in place of the cumin. :).

Steps:

• Make dressing:
• Purée apple, shallot, and garlic with vinegar and salt in a blender, scraping down sides several times, until very smooth. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream, then blend until emulsified and very smooth, about 30 seconds.
• Make salad:
• Gently stir together crab, mango, apple, cilantro, and 6 tablespoons dressing, then season with salt.
• Just before serving, put 1 apple chip on each of 6 plates and top each chip with about 3 tablespoons crab salad. Layer with another chip and another 3 tablespoons crab salad, then top each stack with 1 more chip. Drizzle plates with some of remaining dressing and serve immediately.
