This recipe was shot before Francis passed away.
Hi, I'm Francis, the host of this show "Cooking with Dog."
Today, we are making an Apple Tart.
This Francis and that Francis are substituting for him again.
First, peel and core the apples
and cut them lengthwise into eight equal wedges.
Place the apple into a pot.
To make the compote, add the raw sugar and granulated sugar
and lightly toss to coat.
Turn on the burner.
Cover and cook on medium low heat.
When the melted sugar begins to make a simmering sound,
uncover and shake the pot up and down
to bring the bottom of the apple to the top.
This method will help to avoid breaking the shape of the apple.
Occasionally mix the apple from the bottom with a wooden paddle.
After about 10 minutes, the juices should come out of the apple.
Make cuts in an X pattern in the center of a clean paper towel
and place it onto the apple.
This is a substitute for a drop-lid,
which help the ingredient cook evenly.
Then, simmer for 10 more minutes.
When the apple begins to turn translucent,
remove the paper towel.
Continue reducing the juices without a lid.
While the juices still remain,
add the raisins,
lemon juice
and cinnamon powder.
Gently mix the ingredients.
Reduce the juices
until there is only a small amount on the bottom.
Turn off the burner and let it sit to cool.
Now, let's make the almond cream.
In a fine mesh strainer,
combine the almond powder,
raw sugar
and cake flour.
Sieve the powder into a bowl.
Be sure to bring all the ingredients to room temperature beforehand.
The unsalted butter should be at room temperature also
and softened in a bowl.
Add the sifted powder to the butter.
Combine the mixture with a spatula.
When the butter is evenly incorporated,
switch to a balloon whisk.
Add the beaten egg a little at a time
and combine the mixture.
Gradually adding the egg will help to avoid separation.
Now, the almond cream is ready.
Let's fill the tart crust.
Place the almond cream onto the bottom of the crust.
Spread it with a spatula evenly.
Arrange the apple compote in concentric circles over the cream.
The apples should slightly overlap each other.
Cut the remaining apple wedges in half
and fill the middle of the tart with them.
Distribute the raisins on top.
Gently press the apple to even out the surface.
Now, preheat the oven to 190 °C (374 °F) and place the tart pan into it.
Bake the tart at 190 °C (374 °F) for 40 to 50 minutes.
To help brown the tart evenly, rotate the pan while baking.
If the surface begins to burn too quickly,
cover the tart with aluminum foil to adjust the color.
When the almond cream and apple turn golden brown, it is ready.
Remove and place the pan onto a cooling rack.
Now, let's make the glaze.
Add the rum to the apricot jam and stir to mix.
You can also use hot water instead of the rum.
Brush the apricot glaze over the top.
Let it sit to cool and then remove the tart pan.
Be sure to use apples that have a firm texture for baking.
In Japan, Tsugaru and Fuji are the most popular brands for baking apples.
The almond cream and crispy tart crust make the apples more delicious!
Alternatively, you can use other fruit
such as peaches, European pears and figs.
Good luck in the kitchen!

The Importance of Customer Empathy | Humana - Duration: 2:18.
If you think about how we started, we didn't know the language that the physicians were
expecting to hear.
We were talking business talk, insurance speak to physicians.
They didn't understand.
We did the same thing with the members, with the patients.
We need to be able to communicate with people in their language.
The core team of people that we work with in the innovation center come from a true
consumer research background and they really push us to hear what the consumer is saying.
We're trying to tap into something deeper in many ways here, which is people have goals
or desires or motivations about what they think they can do with their lives.
What we've learned is that people don't want to be defined by their condition.
They don't walk around every day thinking I have diabetes.
I have congestive heart failure.
They're people.
They have a condition to manage and we need to help them make that easier.
We need to understand and truly know the people that it is we're serving through conversations,
through interactions, through co-creation, which is a different way of knowing people.
So, Humana has a rare opportunity to facilitate all the collaboration of the healthcare ecosystem
players and they need to be able to do that based on trust and showing that they care.
What are the consumer needs?
We have no reason for being here if it wasn't for our members, their families.
You know, those are the people that make me get up in the morning and keep me thinking
at night.
What we're doing is we're transforming an industry that's in dire need of transformation
and at the same time we're improving the health of our customers.
I can't think of anything better.
If you combine the power that a corporation has and the scale, that's something that
startups want and you put that together with the innovative sort of mojo and energy and
the consumer centered focus that so many startups have, if you bring that together with a large
corporate, there's amazing things that can happen.

Drink more, I like to set myself up for a win.
Whoa!
Ah!
Oh!
Get the last four digits of my nephew's social.
I'll give you a thousand bucks.
No, don't-- He does not have a thousand dollars.
Boom
Oh my God, you are a nightmare.
See what all the hype is about Empire.

How Baby Boomers Went Next Generation | Humana - Duration: 3:22.
No, I'm not a tech-savvy person.
I'm not.
No.
I like to think I am, okay?
I didn't think I need to change that much.
That was the problem.
It was kind of mindboggling to think, hey, I can step on this scale here and it's transmitting
my weight to them.
After a few times, you really, you do it without even thinking about it.
Even though it's online, you feel very much a part of a community.
You have to be in competition with the other 60 members of the group.
I wanted to be one of the first ones to lose the weight.
Took my scale on vacation...it was really good because if you don't get that feedback,
you know, it's easy to stray.
If I don't get in the steps that I really need for that day, when I go places I park
far away.
You know, my great-granddaughter, she kept saying, "Grand mama, why are you parking
so far from the door?"
I said, "Because I need to get in the rest of my steps for the day."
It's just second nature for me now.
I had a very poor self-image and it was one that was probably hidden by a lot of other
things such as trying to be the comedian or making jokes about how big I was and it kept
me from doing a lot of things.
Well, it was kind of a wake-up call for me that I was in this category of pre-diabetic
because I had never really thought of myself as that before.
Oh, I was convinced that I worked out strenuously every day.
When I actually measured it, it was a whole lot…it was several orders of magnitude less
than I thought.
It got to a point that if you didn't work out you missed it and that, "Oh wow, it's
not bad."
I tracked my food and activity religiously.
It was having the effect of making me avoid certain things that I would have just automatically
reached for before.
Favorite part of the program was watching the weight chart go down.
Thank you.
The doctor even said that that's enough.
That's good enough.
You just try to maintain that and you'll be in good shape.
And I'm off the blood pressure pills.
If it wasn't for Humana, I'd just still probably be struggling with weight and everything.
I did it and I couldn't have done it without them.
It's like when I did reach that, the first goal that they set, and I think that morning
when I weighed I hollered out and said, "Hey, I have made it."
I realized the fact that, you know, there's no way that you can look the same as you did
when you was 20, but then too, when you get 75, if you don't look like you 90 you've
accomplished something right during your lifetime.

Is Smoking Weed Bad For You? (The Health Effects of Marijuana) - Duration: 5:41.
Is weed bad for you?
Depending on who you ask, weed is either a cancer fighting wonder drug, or the devil
trying to corrupt us all.
And since there's 22 states considering changing their marijuana laws, we wanted to
get to the bottom of the question - is weed really bad for you??
[Sciq Intro]
Now, before we get started on the biological impacts of what happens when you get high/
blaze/burn/light up/scroll/bake (scroll?
really?)
Let's break the potential down side into three sections.
The brain, the lungs, and cancer.
First off - the brain.
It is assumed that the use of marijuana by teenagers is harmful to brain development
- the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) warns teens in particular to avoid marijuana
as their little brains are still developing.
And weed's main psychoactive ingredient THC definitely does act on the brain - it
mimics the brain's natural endocannabinoids, which regulate our physiological functions,
such as appetite, pain, memory and mood.
Now anything that affects the brain's chemistry should be used very carefully -our brain is
a well regulated machine and it is a bad idea to fu** with that system - for example if
you take away our brains ability to regulate appetite you can get the munchies - which
is why there's a stereotype of the fat stoner.
But is smoking weed actually damaging your brain?
Well your brain does adjust to anything you put into it, but to date, the studies that
I've seen haven't been able to prove any serious long term effects on the brain itself
from moderate marijuana consumption.
So on the danger spectrum with fatty foods here and heroin here, I'd say weed is definitely
somewhere in THIS category.
Ok so the lungs.
if we look at lung health - There is a huge disagreement about whether or not marijuana
smoke is harmful to the lungs.
For example, according to a 2014 study, there is no difference in the breathing of those
who do not smoke at all and those who smoke marijuana regularly.
But Lung.org contests that all smoke is harmful to the lungs.
Basically, there is no clear, demonstrable evidence that pot-heads have anymore difficulty
breathing than the average non-user.
Interestingly, there may be reason to believe that marijuana smoke actually has a *positive*
effect on lung health (and I'm not joking).
Though the causes are very unclear, there is research from a Nature Partner Journal
to suggest that Forced Vital Capacity, the amount of air you can force yourself to hold,
sees an overall increase in recreational marijuana-smokers - assuming they don't smoke tobacco products
as well.
Though the the American Lung Association continues to push for more research into this, and they
should, the data suggests that there isn't too much harm to the lungs as far as marijuana
smoke goes.
And now Cancer So we know that tobacco smoking can give you
cancer, so is week smoking ALSO going to cause cancer?
If you look at the research so far, it looks like it's actually the opposite - marijuana
can save lives by helping cancer patients eat and sleep and recover quicker from the
effects of cancer treatments.
There is also *some* evidence that suggests marijuana may actually actually kill cancer
cells!
As this article on cancer.gov states: "cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death,
blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow."
But as they say: more research is needed.
So wait.
Weed doesn't seem that bad at all.
Well, now that we have got the biological facts aside – it's now time for me to
get up on my political soapbox for just a second.
There's a lot of misinformation out there on this topic… and I would speculate that's
for one big reason: Correuption!
Theres pharmacutical companies who of course don't want cannabis taking over their pain
killers and other drugs and the private prison industry - who benefit from thousands of people
who are locked up for marijuana-related crimes every year.
For example, look no further than former presidential candidate, Marco Rubio.- Remember him?- He
accepted $40,000 worth of campaign donations from GEO, a private correctional corporation.
But he didn't get this money for nothing: as House leader, his economic consultant - who
was also a former trustee of GEO - advised Rubio to award a government prison contract
of $110 million dollars to GEO.
This is how the private prison lobby works.
And they benefit greatly from marijuana still being illegal.
This is why many people seem to assume that the potential dangers of marijuana are worse
than they actually are – because we've been bombarded with politically-charged misinformation
campaigns for a century now.
Just look at the ridiculous movie Reefer Madness from the 1930s: it's a fascinating and startling
look into American history on the subject.
The very name "marijuana" has a political edge: Cannabis, to the best of our knowledge,
originates from Central Asia, yet in the past century we've come to use a the term that
Mexican revolutionaries used, 'marijuana'.
Not only did this connect to the drug to the Mexican revolution, which was causing illegal
immigration, which was not very popular it was also psychologically connected with communism,
because the revolutionaries were communists.
Our fear of cannabis is rooted in political propaganda for decades!
So I'm just here to being the science - I'll let you guys make a decision – and by the
way there's way more information in the description below that you should totally
read, and new research is coming out all the time.
But what do you guys think?
Do you use marijuana for its positive health effects?
Our producer, you cant see this but he is nodding yes Have you had a bad reaction to
weed?
