Fall Berries

Fall Berries

How did the hand pies look? Did you love the brownies? How many choux did you eat in one sitting? Yes, these are the things I think about. So today, after creating a gorgeous selection of our favorites for a client to send as a new yearโ€™s gift, I was given a gift of my own: direct feedback from the recipients of the pastries. I was so happy, I had to share it with you.

So here it is, you loving what we love. Maybe I donโ€™t know where to look for spicy food in Europe, or maybe my idea of spicy differs from the palate here, but Iโ€™ve noticed that thereโ€™s a decided lack of spicy heat on this side of the pond. I havenโ€™t turned into one of those spice monsters that travel around with ghost chilli pepper flakes in their pocket, but I do appreciate that tingly burn you get when digging in to a perfectly spicy dish.

QUICK PICKLE RECIPE

1/2 TEASPOON SALT

 

1/2 TEASPOON SUGAR

 

1 CUP MATCHSTICK DAIKONS

 

1 CUP MATCHSTICK CARROTS

 

In a bowl, sprinkle the salt and sugar over the carrots and daikons. Let stand for 30 minutes, rinse and enjoy. Warm your tortillas, spread with a bit of pate, squirt on a touch of mayo, and pile on the pulled pork. Top with daikon, carrots, jalapenos, cilantro and a squirt of sriracha. Squeeze on some lime and youโ€™re good to go!
