Welcome to the weekly newsletter of solo food!
|
I hope that you are well, that your friends and family are also well, and that you have started to imagine your vacations even in this strange context, because it’s better when we visualize things! Visualizing has a magical power; it turns positive thoughts to reality! Try it!
|
Any way we will take some holidays because vacations are sacred! and we are going to take them either we stay at home or we go somewhere :) So go vacations, vacations go!

Very simple endives (chicory) braised in butter: Endives are bitter…. in fact no, when you know how to cook them J they are actually very good! Braised in a little bit of butter in a cast iron casserole (or equivalent technology) are just delicious :)

Scallops with citrus fruits sauce: This is a dish worthy a Michelin star, at least that’s what they tell me. It’s not surprising actually, because I got inspiration for this dish from a Ritz recipe I found in a book of the Escoffier school. It’s easy to make and simply delicious :) To be served with a couple of endives braised in butter :)

Risotto with shrimps: I did not know how to make risottos with the special rice. In Greece, we make risottos our way with classic rice. It’s here in France that my friend Pierre served me this risotto and since then I have included it into my book of recipes. It can be as spicy as you like. Moreover, it’s very easy to make! Try it and you will not be disappointed!

Cinnamon pie with fylo crust by Akis Petretzikis: I am starting a new section on the site this week, where I will present other people recipes. This is the case of a Greek chef called Akis Petretzikis and his cinnamon pie with fylo crust. It’s easy to make, gentle and delicate at the same time. Try it and don’t be intimidated by the language barrier because when something is good there is no barrier!
