Between work and travel, I haven't been able to spend any time in blog land lately. Not much time in the kitchen either. We eat fairly light - so I can get by with putting together a plate of some wonderful Tuscan Melon, Prosciutto, Figs from my fig tree, grapes and some nice cheese and crackers. Pair it with a crisp glass of wine and we are good to go.
Dessert might be one of these Tortas de Aceite from Spain. Does anyone have a recipe (Lala maybe) for these? They are made with olive oil and anise.
Last night I made a salad that is a standby for me. Fresh Greens, Bosc Pear, Dried Cranberries, Dulce Gorgonzola, Toasted Walnuts and either grilled steak or chicken.
We like to have a cheese course for dessert more often than not. Le Délice De Bourgongne triple créme from France, figs drizzled with local honey, french bread, paired with a Sauternes.
Here's to sweet summertime .................................................
Cheers!
