Recipe of a typical Provencal dish: Goat cheese salad.
Here is the recipe from our French Escapade chef, Valerie. This is one of the dish that she serves to our guests during their stay with us.
Ingredients: 2 small goat cheeses, baguette bread, mache or other type of salad, chive, honey, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, Maille mustard.
Steps:
Vinaigrette: Whisk 4 tablespoons of oil in a bowl with a tablespoon of vinegar, one teaspoon of mustard, a dash of salt and pepper.
Salad: – Just before serving, heat the cheese in a pan on medium-low for one minute on each side or microwave it for about 20 secondes.
- Toast 2 small slices on bread and serve the hot cheese on the toasts.
- Add 2 handfuls of mache salad to the vinaigrette and stir.
- Dress the plates with the cheese on one side and the salad next to it.
- Poor honey strips with a spoon over the cheese and decorate with chives and cherry tomatoes.
Bon appetit!!!!
