The Gourmet at the Table

shrimp polenta

Here at The Gourmet Online we love to be in the kitchen, but we don't want to be there all the time.  Yes we can get lost in a day of baking and braising, stirring and slicing.  Even though we know quick rise yeast works just fine, at times we still want to do it the old fashioned way.  That's not to say we don't value (and utilize) shortcuts in the kitchen that make life easier and give us more time at the table with friends and loved ones.

We just like to keep it light and easy.  This meal is simple and quick -just for you!

Here are three courses of incredible flavors that are easy to prepare and will thrill the gourmets in your life. To prepare this menu, read more...

Let's Have A Salad!

With an abundance of fresh vegetables and hot weather, summer is the right time to choose salad as a meal.

Fresh greens ranging from baby spinach to classic crisp head lettuce all work as the base for a healthy and delicious salad. 

Add special ingredients like grilled chicken or beef, tuna stuffed olives, semi-soft cheeses to add more substance to your meal, but don't be shy about adding fresh vegetables like tomatoes, carrots, green beans, and cucumbers.

Dress and season lightly, as you can always add more.  To make your salad special, try dressing it with Acetaia Estense Riserva Speciale Balsamic Vinegar and Giachi Dolcolio.

Specially trained truffle dogs search for the precious fungi which are then excavated by the hunters, the same way they have for hundreds of years.

Authentic Belgian Waffles

Tricky but tasty, and worth the time!

Batter 1:
1¼ ounce fresh cake yeast or 2 ½ package active dry yeast
¼ cup warm water
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1 large egg, beaten
1/3 cup warm milk

Batter 2:
9 tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
pinch of salt
1 tbsp granulated sugar
½ cup pearl sugar or ¾ cup crushed sugar cubes

For Batter 1: In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water with 1 tbsp of the flour and the sugar. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.

Sift the remaining flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast mixture, egg and milk. Mix to make a smooth batter. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until the batter has doubled or tripled in volume.

For Batter 2: In a medium-size bowl, mix the butter, flour, salt, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon (if using), granulated sugar and Lars Own Pearl Sugar into a paste.

With hands, work the two batters together. Shape the dough into 10 balls; flatten each ball then dust lightly with flour.

Bake in a medium-hot waffle iron. If the iron is too hot the sugar will burn. Bake until the waffles are golden brown but still soft, 3 to 4 minutes.

Support Your Local Farmers

Some of us are fortunate to live close to farmland, where fresh fruits and vegetables are always available.  Others wait in anticipation for spring to start shopping fresh.  A lot of attention has been focused on sustainable farming lately.  Considering the average fruit and vegetable travels 1,500 miles before it lands on your table, doesn't it make sense to eat the same thing that's grown locally instead? 

It's time to put your money where your local farmer is!  Follow the link below to learn more about the food you eat.  It's time to find local farmers markets and retailers that support local farms.  You'll eat healthy delicious seasonal produce and feel good about where it came from.
