soupe au pistou french cuisine made simple by le chef's wife
Soupe au Pistou
Soupe au Pistou - the definitive Soup of the South of France - is one of my favorites and a classic of French Riviera and Provençale Cuisine. A vegetarian soup full of hearty beans, delicious vegetables and flavorful basil.

Fig and Goat Cheese Salad
This Fresh Fig and Goat Cheese salad is UNBELIEVABLY GOOD. The beauty of the fresh figs, the soft decadence of the goat cheese, the sweetness of the honey dressing. YUM! Perhaps made even more special that fresh figs , in the North East USA, are not very easy to find. When I stumble on Fresh figs I stop in my tracks and take as many as I can.

Coq Au Vin
Coq Au Vin Blanc is a succulent chicken stew made with white wine instead of red wine like its more famous cousin, Coq au Vin. ​ ​A classic French dish, each forkful melts in your mouth and is so fragrant and flavorful. I confess, I actually prefer Coq au Vin Blanc to the traditional Coq au Vin , made with red wine. The flavor is lighter and incredibly indulgent.

Authentic Swiss Cheese Fondue
Authentic Swiss Cheese Fondue is one of the first dishes my grandmother ever taught me to cook. I remember standing tippytoe on a chair next to the stove in her kitchen, stirring the fondue in a continuous figure “8” until I felt my arm would fall off. That first taste of crunchy baguette, dipped into the rich, hot cheese and I knew it was worth it!
