My new favorite book, “Olive Trees and Honey” by Gil Marks, is the source of this delicious soup. If Kefir is not available to you, substitute plain yogurt. This soup is best served freshly warm just as it is done, and is traditionally served after the main course. The long total time for preparation includes 4 hours of soaking the split peas before making the soup, which I included as “cooking” time.

Delicious fluffy polenta with sautéed chanterelle mushrooms. It’s easy and makes a beautiful starter for four or vegetarian main for two. You can sub other mushroom, I love freshly picked chanterelles the best. Joy of the (mushroom)hunter :). Not so fond of the cleaning though. If the mushrooms are not too earthy try brushing them off only and prevent rinsing them in water, this will diminish their distinct flavour and make bigger ones mushy. The amount of mushrooms used may vary according to their water contents.
When there are apricots in abundance, this cake can be found on every menu, shop and bakery. It’s unbelievably easy, tasty and quick to make. You can also swap plums for apricots. The yoghurt makes the dough extremely light and fluffy.
