This week’s recipe for Cook the Book Fridays from David Lebovitz’s My Paris Kitchen was actually a Bay Leaf Pound Cake with an orange glaze but I opted for a plain orange pound cake that David suggests. The bay leaf version involved infusing butter with bay leaves for a while and I thought that apart […]

French Fridays: Chicken Pot Parmentier from My Paris Kitchen
This week’s recipe for Cook the Book Fridays from David Lebovitz’s My Paris Kitchen was perfect for Canadian Thanksgiving which fell early this year, catching a few of us by surprise, especially given the very hot September we had. Fortunately the weather cooperated to give us a typical Thanksgiving weekend with chilly temperatures just perfect […]

It *should* have been aioli – a simple homemade mayonnaise with loads of garlic and I’ve made mayonnaise before so I didn’t think it would pose a problem. So much so […]
French Fridays: Apricot (kernel) ice cream from My Paris Kitchen
