The Tomato Knife

From Culture to Cooking: Discovering Life in France

Recipe Index

cookingWelcome to my Recipe Index! Here you’ll find recipes sorted by type.  You can also search by ingredient and take a look at my list of favorite French cheeses (with uses and wine pairings).

While I usually include measurements, my biggest piece of advice is to listen to your ingredients. Like people, their moods seem to change from day to day.  If your flour’s calling for more liquid, add more.  If your soup is calling for a different spice, go for it.
