COLOMBE DU JOUR
Recipes
Red Currant Bread with Almond Streusel
I spent my end of summer vacation in Burgundy, and was lucky enough to catch the end of the wild currants growing in my mother’s yard. They flourish somehow, even though they’re left untouched for a good part of the year.
Ultimate Granola
My favorite kind of granola is a crunchy, light as a feather cluster that pops in my mouth with the perfect balance of nutty and sweet. The real trick to achieve this consistency is the use of instant oats.
Strawberry-Rose Almond Milk Smoothie
If I were a musician, this might be my farewell Ode to summer. A classic ode is in three parts: the strophe, antistrophe and epode. In other words soaking the almonds, composing everything (such as the blending the straining the sprinkling of rose petals), and finally the enjoyment.
Eggs with Browned Butter and Sage
I don’t often eat sandwiches, but when I’ve been especially active and the weather gets colder I start to crave something heartier.
Chocolate Zucchini Amaranth Muffins
This is the time of year, when zucchini is very much on my mind. I seem to be constantly brainstorming various uses for this ever present and abundant vegetable.
Moroccan Eggs
I made this for my last two house-guests and they’ve been requesting the recipe ever since. This is by far one of the most popular dishes in my breakfast repertoire, although note that it makes for a great lunch or dinner also.
