Basil and Garlic Cream

This fragrant and herb-y Basil and Garlic Cream makes an excellent sauce for pasta, cooked al dente, just drained and folded into it, for a lunch that literally tastes like Spring. It can also be the base of salads or gratins, depending on the season's changing weather!

Ingredients (makes about 1/3 cup):

a small garlic clove

a dozen large leaves Garden Basil 

a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 tablespoon olive oil

1/3 cup crème fraîche or sour cream

Peel and halve garlic clove. Add to a mortar, and grind into a pulp with a pestle.

Tear Basil leaves into the mortar, and thoroughly grind them with the garlic into a paste. Season with salt and black pepper.

Gradually stir in olive oil, until mixture emulsifies. Then, stir in crème fraîche until well-blended.

Fold Basil and Garlic Cream into al dente pasta, or use as a base for a salad dressing or in gratins, loaves or quiches...

My basil seedlings are flourishing. They smell yummy. That plant light was the best 5.55 I spent lately.

I am making bread.

I have no mixer, so I mixed and kneaded it 100% by hand.

After it rose the first time I flattened it out and added garlic, butter, and basil (fresh from my garden) on both of them, and also olives on one, and sundried tomatoes on the other, then rolled it up, scoured it, and brushed the olive one with more garlic butter and topped it with olives, and the tomato one with the oil from the sundried tomatoes. I then covered them with plastic to hold in moisture and warmth, but I didn't want the plastic touching the tops, so I'm using a cooling rack I have to hold the plastic up away.

I am so excited to eat these, but they take so long to rise! I haven't made bread at home in ages so I honestly forgot! I started at noon! It is 7:45! And it needs at least another 45 minutes before I can even put it in the oven!

Despair!

Anticipation!

(I will reblog with pictures after the bread has been baked.)

手作りモッツァレラ。ワインが進んでしょうがない　笑

作りたてはカプレーゼで、あとは冷凍庫に入れてすりおろしてピザ、キッシュ、ラザニアなどに使います！

Made mozzarella cheese! I put some in the freezer so that I can use it for pizza topping, quiche and lasagna some other time!!

Maple and Mozzarella Brussels Sprout Gratin (Vegetarian)

Beautifully creamy and cheesy, this Maple and Mozzarella Brussels Sprout Gratin makes a simple, yet more-ish lunch on a chill but sunny Winter day. Happy Wednesday!

Ingredients (serves 1):

1/2 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 tablespoon pure (Grade A) Canadian Maple Syrup

2 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream

3 large leaves Garden Basil 

1 (125-gram/4.4-ounce) ball fresh mozzarella di bufala

1 cup cooked Brussels sprouts (steamed or boiled and drained)

fleur de sel or sea salt flakes and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Preheat oven to 200°C/395°F.

Use a little of the oil to generously grease an individual baking tin.

Stir Maple Syrup into the crème fraîche, and spoon mixture at the bottom of the tin.

Finely chop Basil and sprinkle half onto the Maple crème fraîche.

Drain mozzarella and cut in half. Cut a mozzarella halve into dices, and the other into slices.

Scatter mozzarella dices onto the Maple cream.

Add steamed Brussels sprouts, pushing them into the Maple cream. Season with fleur de sel and black pepper. Top with mozzarella slices, sprinkle with leftover Basil, and drizzle with remaining olive oil.

Place baking tin in the middle of the hot oven, and bake, at 200°C/395°F, 20 minutes until cheese is bubbling and golden brown on top.

Enjoy Maple and Mozzarella Brussels Sprout Gratin hot, with a glass of chilled dry white wine, like Pinot Grigio.
