Is it a Flafoutis or a Claugnarde?

By

We discussed and debated this morning and just couldn't agree. You can call it a clafoutis if it's made with cherries; if it's made with any other type of fruit, it's a flaugnarde. This was made with a mixture of cherries and wild blueberries. So...what do you think it should be called? Is this a Flafoutis or a Claugnarde?

Whatever you call it, it's dairy-free, gluten-free, and all kinds of delicious.

Ingredients
  • non-dairy butter for greasing the pan
  • 3 C fruits (I used 2 C cherries and 1 C wild blueberries)
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 C organic granulated sugar
  • 3/4 C sweet white rice flour
  • 1-1/2 C almond milk
  • 2 T vanilla paste
  • 1 T cherry liqueur
  • powdered sugar for dusting

 Procedure
Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter your baking dish(es). Spoon the fruit into the bottom of the dish(es). Whisk the eggs, sugar, and flour together until smooth. Add the milk. vanilla paste, and liqueur. Whisk until smooth. Pour over the fruit.

Bake for 45-50 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. When you pull it put of the oven it will jiggle a bit. That's fine. Place the dish on a wire rack to cool. The Flafoutis/Claugnarde will have puffed up quite a bit during baking and will deflate while cooling. When cooled, dust the Flafoutis/Claugnarde with powdered sugar. Serve at room temperature.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
