Tartelette The first days of the Summer here in the South always bring back memories of my youth spent in Provence and Les Grandes Vacances (Summer vacations) spent in the Alps. The scent of lavender, rosemary, thyme. Juicy cut cantaloupe and proscuito salad. Fresh sardines and trouts over a makeshift barbecue pit dug in the earth. Scrumptious fingerling potatoes cooked in the ashes afterwards. That smoky taste was unbelievable. Summers then and Summer now, wherever I find myself, are synonymous with the same scents and flavors. The anticipation of going back to the same summer vacation spot and see who was coming that year again. The beauty of being in the present is that I can look up from my work table, cut open a peach and be transported right where I need to be. I did not want to let the season pass by without making some time for peaches and ice cream. Stone fruits always make me reach for a complimentary fragrance. This ice cream is really the best of all worlds right now.

Seven soups every Saturday: blended soup recipes If you're trying to convert vegetable haters to vegetable lovers, purée those carrots and broccoli and cauliflower and potatoes until they metamorphose into something altogether new. That technique just happens to make the very best soups, too. All kinds of soups benefit from a brief encounter with an immersion blender or standing blender, so don't limit your blended soups to vegetable-based creations. Grains, seafood, tofu -- almost any soup, when puréed to a smooth consistency, takes on a completely different character. No chewing needed -- these soups slip right down your throat -- though croutons or a crunchy garnish add lovely textural interest. Seven blended soup recipes caught my eye this week: Blended lentil soup, from Kath Eats Real Food Provencal seafood bisque, from Simply Recipes Vegan cream of mushroom soup, from Joy the Baker Winter squash soup with pimenton and preserved lemon, from Jeanette's Healthy Living Creamy herbed cauliflower soup, from Healthy.
