Rustic

Franz made a rustic, stew-ish dish the other day:

potatoes, carrots, celery, fennel, leek, vegetable stock, honey, ginger, onion, garlic, splash of balsamic vinegar, squirt of lemon, parsley, s & p

Peter & Fridl

Our friends Peter & Fridl gave us a jar of their home-made apple sauce (including a simple but truly beautiful label). Here's what we combined their extremely delicious apple sauce with:

lamb's lettuce with a shallot-vinaigrette and home-made hash browns

Green

gnocchi, shallots, garlic, parsley, lemon zest, mozzarella, salt & pepper

pipe rigate, leak, chard, shallots and garlic, salt & pepper, deglazed with cider from Normandy!

chard and lemon risotto

Fennel and potatoes

Fennel, orange, olive oil and garlic salad on the right; Oma's potato salad on the left (nobody ever really knew the recipe so I was just guessing. I think I was on the right track)

Potatoes

We bought a bunch of potatoes the other day.

Franz made: boiled potatoes (with a nob of butter) and two different sauces: tomato (lots of garlic!) and zucchini-ginger in white wine topped with parsley.
