‘Heaven and earth’ — apples from above, potatoes from below — is a rustic Rhineland dish of creamy potato-apple mash topped with caramelized onions. It’s humble, sweet-savory and deeply soothing, the kind of food that fills the kitchen with good smells.
Traditionally served with blood sausage or bratwurst, it’s a harvest-time classic that turns simple ingredients into something memorable. A dusting of nutmeg and a sizzle of butter make it sing.
