There’s no better way to eat an apple than in a savory tart. Pies are saccharine and fancy salads that sprinkle chopped apple atop demote the fruit to a mere afterthought. Here, apples steal the show in an easy-to-pull-together apple tart recipe that only requires a handful of ingredients, yet emerges from the oven far more than the sum of its parts.

By Jim Baird (Spoiler alert): Putting the Porcupine River behind us, we camp on a large, and spacious esker on the Fon Du Lac River. Our guide book calls the site “Camping For Millions”. Soon after, as we approach the Burr Falls portage, we see a mother bear and two cubs right on the tail! I fire a bear banger to scare them off, and we give them a few minuets to clear out as we eat lunch while taking in the beauty of the Falls....
SUP Training on the Yukon River Training for a 444-mile race is no small task. But that’s exactly what paddlers preparing for the Yukon River Quest have to do. Lucky for them, their training takes place in one of the most beautiful locations on earth. Located in Squamish, British Columbia, these paddlers spent their training sessions surrounded by bald eagles, lush forests, and fun whitewater. Check out the breathtaking footage of their epic sessions....
At Noma, we have guests coming from all over the world for a meal, and you want things to go perfectly. It means I work up to 90 hours a week. A few years into this, I started noticing that I was incredibly exhausted. I felt so drained on weekends, I didn’t have the capacity to do anything. Even creative work made me tired — I was tired all the time....
One of the best parts of any trip to the barber is getting our hair professionally washed. It’s therapeutic, and a good head massage by someone who knows exactly what they’re doing is our favorite part of getting a haircut or a trim. No need to head to your local hair salon or barbershop to get that blissful scalp massage, however—get one in the comfort of your own home with the VitaGoods Scalp Massaging Shampoo Brush....
Now he’s embarking on an even bigger adventure: running for Congress in Texas’s 25th Congressional District. “Our elected officials in Washington are refusing to work together more so than any other time in our nation’s history,” says the well-known marathon paddler and mental health care executive, touting a platform of saving and preserving Medicare benefits, streamlining and improving care for veterans, and eliminating such policies as mandatory arbitration protecting sexual predators....
We constantly hear we should eat less meat. That’s often sound advice, but new research published in The BMJ suggests it’s the type of meat that matters most to our health, not the total quantity. According to data from more than a half-million adults tracked over 16 years, those who ate the most red meat were 26 percent more likely to die of eight serious diseases than those who consumed the least red meat....
A potentially unexploded naval mine, similar to those in the World War II era, washed ashore Monday on a beach in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The ordnance was discovered near Cape Hatteras National Seashore’s beach access ramp 34 in Avon and was to be dealt with by an Explosive Ordnance Disposal unit from Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, according to the National Park Service. Earlier in the day, a woman snapped a photo of another potentially unexploded naval mine that washed ashore on Whale Head Beach in Corolla, N....
Words by Justin Cote, Ryan Brower and Jon Perino. Surfing is an inherently dangerous sport. The ocean is unpredictable, and can turn at the drop of a dime, giving little (or no) warning before unleashing its power and force. However, when you throw monster-sized waves into the equation, you’ve just set the bar at an all-time high for carnage. Big-wave surfing is no joke. It’s a sport that only elite-level surfers should take part in, and something that (even for the best surfers on the planet) can turn life-threatening at any moment....
Astral designed the TR1 Merge as a mid-cut, fast-drying boot. The outsoles include traction G® Rubber to create what they claim to be an excellent multi-season backpacking or expedition kayaking boot. To me, it seemed this boot had potential as a burly kayak fishing shoe as well. Not everyone gets to launch and land on pristine beaches, so the ankle protecting TR1 Merge ($140) has its place. I went searching for it....
CARLSBAD, Calif. (August 28, 2017) – Boardworks, a SoCal-based leader in surf and standup paddle (SUP), today announced its global license agreement with Rogue, an authentic core performance SUP and surf brand, founded in 2008. This announcement comes on the heels of the company’s appointment of Rogue founder Rick Karr as Boardworks’ new general manager in January 2017. “The Rogue license is a central part of our Boardworks’ brand re-launch strategy,” said Karr....
Using skincare products designed for women is not bad for your skin, but it’s unnecessary. Men’s skin is different, primarily due to the presence of facial hair. In order to view the video, please allow Manage Cookies In order to sustain those hair follicles, a man’s facial skin is thicker, and the blood supply richer. Follicles secrete more natural oils. When men shave, it acts as an exfoliant, getting rid of dead skin cells....
It’s always nice to discover that the celebs we see on the big screen are, in many ways, just like us. And that’s definitely true of Men’s Journal May cover star Chris Evans. While he plays a larger-than-life superhero in the Avengers series, behind the scenes at our cover shoot, we got a glimpse of the Chris Evans you won’t see on camera. His answers to our series of questions—covering his favorite gear, meal to cook, place to travel, drink, and workout—prove that the guy playing Captain America is also just a laid-back dude from outside of Boston....
Longboarding is an art form. A style of surfing that lends itself to both beginners and lifelong surfers alike. While it’s fairly simple to ride a longboard, to ride one well requires years of practice, impeccable technique and a innate feeling that only comes from within. Benoit Carpentier is one paddler who has clearly checked all of these boxes. In this latest edit, the French paddler puts on an impressive display of soul surfing on some very fun looking waves in Hossegor’s La Nord Beach in France....
We’ll admit it: Some people despise the gym. And that’s fine—this website isn’t called Gym Fitness—as long as you’re getting in some kind of consistent exercise a few days of the week. Plus, the recent rise of fitness modalities that revolve around functional moves—like CrossFit, mud runs, or suspension trainers like the TRX—has created challenging workout options that can help people build muscle without being confined to a dank, dark gym....
“The most important factor when training athletes—like David Johnson, running back for the Arizona Cardinals—is you don’t want to hurt them,” says Nike Master Trainer, Joe Holder. They’re not dainty, by any means (just watch Johnson crush a 500-lb squat). But they’re different from us. “They’re thoroughbreds,” Holder explains. In the off-season, football players need to build a proper base, striving to enhance their performance with every workout. And during the playing season, the focus is on making sure they don’t get hurt and preventing performance decrement....
Self-Funded Spanish Endurance Athlete Projects 70 Days for Solo, Unsupported 2,500-mile Expedition from San Francisco to Honolulu It’s not easy to talk to Antonio De La Rosa without smiling. The positivity he projects is nothing short of infectious. So far, apparent joy and endless vigor have done De La Rosa well. The 49-year-old Spanish endurance athlete and paddling outfitter has found a way to thrive while traversing hostile environments alone: completing an Arctic 620-mile cross-country ski challenge in 2017, and rowing the Atlantic from Senegal to French Guiana in 2014....
