Per Nana~
This week's recipe is so simple and easy to make and the variations are endless with
all the fresh summer fruit that is available now. Instead of using the fresh cherries I decided to make my clafoutis with fresh blueberries.
Since I am not a fan of either cherries or blueberries, Hubby gets to enjoy the whole dish. Truthfully, I did taste the pudding and thought it was good. I researched some other recipes for clafoutis and came across many variations, including plum, pears, etc..
I look forward to trying them all.
Per Tricia~Sorry all, but I am still adjusting to la rentrée and have not finished laundry or my email catch up from work :) But it was so worth it. I will catch up on this recipe and also share photos but promise not to "photo bomb" the blog. I think I will limit it to a link to shots we took of kitchens from various chateaus. Tons of copper, but not a Vitamix in sight......
Welcome home, Tricia!
ReplyDeleteNana, I love the idea of using blueberries :)
Welcome back, ladies. Sounds like a great trip - please photo bomb away :-)
ReplyDeleteYes - NY (or northeast) get together, I am in!!!!!
Yay for trying to organise a meetup this side of the pond :)
ReplyDeleteGood on Nana for getting this done - I was making it the day before I left ;)
Welcome home, ladies! I am on board for a New York meet up! It would be great! Nana, your clafoutis looks great…sorry you are not a custard kind of lady! I love any kind of pudding or custard! Love the blueberries!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a wonderful holiday Trish and Nana! I have never been to the Loire Valley, but the beautiful sunny skies make me truly want to go. Nana, your clafoutis looks lovely, and I am glad your hubby enjoyed it. I have not been to NY forever and would see what I could do to get there.
ReplyDeleteWow, glad I cut my cherries in half.. does seem like a lot. I didn't find this too interesting either. Ok, but not quiet sweet enough or creamy enough.
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea! we are going to meet on the West Coast this fall and possibly next fall would be a great time to plan a meeting for the Doristas on the East Coast!
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! Love the blueberries-looks so delicious ;)
ReplyDeletethe blueberries are a nice variation. looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteTricia and Nana: how wonderful to read that you enjoyed your trip to France and that you are back home safe and sound (and happy) - hope you had a wonderful vacation with tons of inspirations, I am looking forward to all the lovely picture that you will be posting and your version of the Blueberry Claoufoutis looks utterly delicious to me!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Lovely variation, Nana! I think it's going to be well worth repeating with all the fruits of summer.
ReplyDeleteTricia - I'm looking forward to seeing as many photos as you'd like to share with us!
Ooh, looks delicious with ice cream!
ReplyDeleteI love blueberry desserts and that blueberry clafoutis looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the photos. I don't thin it's a bad think if you "photo bomb". I'm in for a Northeast Dorista get together, plus you are going to Seattle in Sept right? I'm looking forward to that too. I didn't get a chance to make this yet, but hope to catch up soon. Welcome home!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about the trip. I've yet to visit the Loire Valley. And very impressed that Nana managed to fit this dish in. I really liked the blueberry version.
ReplyDeleteBienvenue. I insist upon photo bombing also. Would love to see every single picture. I hope you enjoyed Paris enough for moi aussi. Nana, you don't like cherries or blueberries? Hmmmm All fruit or just those two. This clafoutis is too delicious not to enjoy. However, the pudding is tasty on its own. Love the big slab of ice cream right in the middle. Know you're both jet-lagged. I'm on for a get-together in NY also. Are west coasters invited?
ReplyDeleteLooks really good. Clafoutis are so versatile.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to ALL the pics!!
