Trop chou!! – Velouté de choux de Bruxelles aux cocos et thym Brussels sprouts are round, small and cute, and many people find them heavy to digest due to their high content in sulfur. They tend to have a strong flavor, but I think that’s what makes them particular. They are from the cabbage [...]

Ca sent la cocotte – Oeufs cocotte aux fanes de moutarde, crème et lardons Another traditional French dish…cocotte has different meanings in French but is used in our modern slang, calling someone “ma cocotte”  is somehow like “honey” or an endearing word. It probably goes back to last century [...]

Aussi rapide qu’un éclair – Gambas en sauce miel-sake aux concombres grillés Cucumbers are usually eaten raw but I like them also grilled or sautés. When cooked their taste is stronger but they still keep their crunchy texture. You have to eat them while hot and not let them get cold or they will [...]

Frais et léger – romanesco vapeur, pomme ratte grillées et vinaigrette de poivrons grillés aux herbes. This is a little unusual salad, but quite intersting in terms of flavors and texture, I like it lukewarm or cold but not hot. The heat will alter the vinaigrette flavors. This is green [...]

Un peu plus sophistiqué – Coquilles de choucroute au St Jacques et sauce moutarde When I get nostalgic, I turn towards food and cooking to bring me back some flavors and memories of Alsace-Lorraine.  I am so lucky to be living in San Francisco, because I can always find something that takes me [...]

Flétan en croute d’olives, noix et herbes aux haricots verts chinoix sautés When it’s hot outside, it’s a sauna inside, and today has been one of those days. Living on the top floor, the high temperatures make this place like an oven…I did not feel like turning on the oven tonight, but I had this [...]
