Pistou o pesto – Minestrone con quinoa, gamberi e “pistou” (e non pesto) It’s been ages I haven’t made soup for myself, I’ve had no desire for soups whatsoever. Maybe with winter coming this way and cooler weather, this will change. Simple traditional minestrone is delicious, hearty, filled with [...]

Portobellos farcis aux légumes, chèvre et basilic I cannot believe that my last post goes back to one month ago. Shame on me. I have no excuse, so shame on me twice. I have been back from France, then I got sick, then I have been busy working and busy working out, so one thing added to another, [...]

Pour commencer la semaine ou la finir en gaieté – Saumon pané aux noix et herbes, salsa de brocolis Here I am, in France again visiting my parents. I made this recipe while in the US a while ago and never managed to finish it. So I figured to post it from France even if it has nothing to do with [...]

Fin de l’été – Pêche Melba I made this recipe a month ago when the peaches were delicious and juicy, now you get the last peaches of the season…bye bye my sweet fruit. This dessert reminds me of my childhood…during the summer months when I used to go in town with my mom, we would sit down sur la [...]

Brocoli rave sauté, galettes de patates douces et carottes, sauce au yaourt-coriandre   Going back to my favorite cuisine, vegetarian…I just love the vibrant colors of vegetables and their versatility, they’re too good to keep aside. In this dish, the bitterness of rapini and sweetness of yams [...]

Un genre de fast food – Salade de pois chiches et poivrons aux herbes et haloumi   When I go to the store, I buy everything I get attracted to, so when I go to the store hungry, I get attracted to everything in the store. That’s what they say don’t go shopping when you’re hungry, which is [...]

Table pour deux – Médaillons de lotte marinés aux épices, purée d’aubergine aux citrons confits I realized this blog really lacks meat recipes, even though I cook it for clients every weeks, I don’t really eat it, (unless I am forced with a stick!!), I just taste it for seasoning, so I would say [...]

Risotto con crema al broccolo You might say that this is not real risotto since it’s made with brown arborio rice, so as with any brown rices, you don’t get the creaminess of regular arborio. Honestly I love the texture of brown arborio, it’s chewiness, nutty flavor and wholesomeness. Of course, [...]

Brick à braque – Feuilles de brick aux carottes, cumin et munster I would say that this recipe has a French flair to it, especially with munster cheese in it. Munster is a a very old cheese from Alsace made with caw milk, but other regions like the one I grew up in also produce munster. It tends to [...]

Polenta con mais, sugo ai funghi e olio al tartufo I had two corn cobs that I had no inspiration on how to prepare, so after going through Plenty the book of Yotam Ottolenghi, I came across an interesting idea…using fresh corn to make polenta. Why not? This intrigued me so I decided to use his [...]
