Carpaccio de courgettes et daikon au coulis de tomates grillées et estragon
I was not sure how this would end up, and did not know if it was worth posting. The funny thing, is that I finished making the carpaccio, and thought let’s not go through the posting process, of writing and editing [...]

Rapide et simple – Tartine de yams, sardines et radis, au pesto de fines herbes

Ricordo lontano – Carpaccio di polpo
I have been wanting to make this carpaccio for such a long time, then one thing or another comes up and I end up making something else. Besides, a whole uncooked octopus is hard to find, but lately I saw them at Whole Foods.

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, [...]

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 [...]
