ChezHelvetica Hostel guests this evening casually supped on an international smorgasbord of left-over garlic noodles from PPQ Dungeness Island to house favorite Danish Potato Salad to Ricotta Stuffed Zucchini to the crème de la Crème Fraîche on berries. AllRecipes provided the delicious recipe for the giant zucchini (a gift from the Carpenter Gardens) using the trifecta of savory cheeses – ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan – seasoned with basil, lemon juice and lemon zest. A recent San Francisco Professional Food Society event opened a new world with the introduction of sumptuous cultured cream from Kendall Farms Crème Fraîche. Mixed with a little vanilla, this heavenly topping crowned bowls of juicy blueberries for our dessert. So remember, thinking globally and eating locally with family is the greatest comfort in the world!
