Chilled Avocado Citrus Soup

The MOST delicious chilled soup I have ever had, this is from Nadsa De Monteiro of Elephant Walk, a French Cambodian Restaurant in the Boston area.

Pomelo Salad

You can replace pomelo with grapefruit, but since grapefruit are juicier, drain them before adding to the salad. Another recipe for the world tour. Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet.

Tomato Salad

Trying to add different dishes and salads to the “Saturday Lunch at the Farm” crowd brought the dawn of new tastes and new ways of devouring lunch. This salad goes particularly well when “Tommy the Beefsteak Tomato” or “Penelope the Plum tomato” when in the summer you can actually smell the tomatoes maturing and growing big right before you eyes. The use of fresh mint really highlights this simple salad along with the use of fresh scallions, and cucumbers. Even during the cold winter, to bring this bright salad to the table can bring smiles and salad bowls handed down to add just a little more. This is a rustic salad that jumps up and grabs you to behold it. Hey, who said the “Farm” can’t be healthful too. Don’t hesitate to change the ingredients or using fresh green or red peppers instead of the chilies. Go ahead….it’s ok! Enjoy mostly……and have fun *Note* my friend Maito tried this and her suggestions were so good I incorporated the into this recipe. I think it was perfect, thank you Maito!

Eton Mess (Classic British Summer Dessert)

Super easy to make, Eton Mess is an all-time classic British dessert. The dish was traditionally served at Eton College but how it came to have the name is not clear. One story is a Labrador dog sat on a picnic basket in the back of a car and squashed a strawberry and meringue dessert. The dessert is quick and easy to make and makes great use of ripe strawberries at the height of summer when they are plentiful. Frozen or canned strawberries don’t work. This recipe is from Elaine Lemm, a well known food and drink writer in the UK. Enjoy!
