Best of Summer






Wine: Project – 3000 Syrah

Fig and tomato season is coming to an end, so we decided to make again a summer dinner.

First we had Yellow Tomato Gazpacho from the recipe in Sunday Supper at Lucques. It is a great cold soup. We really like the soup, cold and spicy with fresh cherry tomatoes and olive oil floating on top. Oh well, fall means stews, braises and short-ribs!

We then had the Chicken with Figs, Onions, Couscous from The Zuni Café Cookbook. It is wonderful. I like the sauce of figs and vinegar. It soaks into the couscous and extremely tasty.
