Mon Gateau Au ChocolatAn absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way! |

Potatoes With Parsley and Garlic - Pommes ParsilladeThese are the fantastic potatoes you've probably had in a french bistro...the ones that weren't pommes frites (french fries). They are best served immediately when the crisp exterior contrasts so nicely with the warm, soft interior. We served these with a lentils and sausage recipe that I will post shortly. The combination was… |

Salmon with Herb Butter over LentilsThis is a really fantastic combination. The lentil dish could complement just about any fish wonderfully, but it goes especially well with this salmon. You won't be disappointed! |

Perfect French Side SaladThis is a simple tasting but wonderful side salad. The ingredients listed are not that easy to find, but you should feel free to substitute other lettuces and herbs that are available. The green beans are important though...so include them if you can. And the dressing is a must. Mix and enjoy! |

Potato and Sweet Potato au Gratin with HerbsThis is not the lightest recipe I've made, but it's a real treat when you are having guests and want to splurge. I love the flavor and color combination of the sweet and gold potatoes. It's a wonderful twist on a classic French standby. |

Chicken ChasseurThis is a healthy version of chicken in the famous chasseur sauce containing onions and leeks, and flavored with white wine, tomatoes, and mushrooms. It's fancy and delicious enough to serve to dinner guests (we served it with three foodie couples and it was a hit!) and easy enough for a dinner at home. Try serving with garlic… |

Moules a la ProvencaleOne of our favorite appetizers. Also makes a great meal with fries. I recommend that home chefs get their butcher to clean the mussels before you take them home. Most stores will do this for you. |

Spicy Shrimp on SpinachWe made this as one of the dishes at our annual stay at the Koehler Winery near in Los Olivos near Santa Barbara. Everything we made was delicious, but this might have been my favorite. We served it as an appetizer, and everyone raved about it. It was extremely easy and quick and the presentation was beautiful. I made this with a… |

French Cuisine: Tartelettes Cressonieres au Chevre/Cress & Goat Cheese TartsThis the perfect time of the year as cress is coming onto the markets (at least here in Shizuoka and also in Aichi)! Associated with goat cheese (perfect for cow's milk/lactose allergics), it makes for almost a complete nutritious meal in itself! |

Bistro Beef StewThis warm and hearty stew is full of vegetable chunks, and tender beef chunks. Try serving is with warm French or sourdough bread, and a hearty Cabernet or Syrah. This is just a fantastic, comfort beef stew. I kept tasting it, thinking it would need some sort of additional spice, but in the end I added nothing to it. It's just… |
