What's the best part of early winter in France? Why, the FOOD, of course! Building up to Christmas and the New Year, stores are *full* of interesting choices! There are complete aisles dedicated to foie gras, more for chocolates, another case full of giant birds! And the special whiskies and champagnes arrive! There's just no other time of year to fully appreciate the French specialities cooked at home.
Tonight being the Winter Solstice, we decided to go all out 😀
I found this pre-stuffed bird - different mushrooms, no lactose... I'm cooking it with carrots.
And! Asparagus (from Peru, just so we can celebrate ahead of Spring!)! Baked potatoes, and mushrooms on the side.
All accompanied by Champagne and Picpoul de Pinet 😋😋😋
(I tell a secret - we didn't get to the Picpoul this time)
