"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Directions:
In large bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles course crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks, lemon juice and water; gradually add to flour mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide in half. Chill for 30 minutes.
Roll out one portion of dough between two large sheets of wax paper into a 17 in x 12 in rectangle. Transfer to an ungreased 15 in x 10 in x 1 in baking pan. Press pastry onto the bottom and up the sides on pan; trim pastry even with top edge.
In a bowl, toss the apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; spread over crust. Roll our remaining pastry to fit top of pan; place over filling. Trim edges; brush edges between pastry with water or milk; pinch to seal. Cut slits in top. Bake at 375º for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients until smooth; drizzle over bars before cutting.
