First is: bliss- lifestyle blog with amazing recipes. I have tried 2 recipes so far:
Geoff and I eat mostly salads for dinner in the summer so I'm always hunting for more interesting combos.
This one is delicious- love the raw asparagus!
Asparagus, fava and pecorino salad
Serves 4-6
Ingredients:
1 bunch asparagus, tough bottom stems removed
1 cup fresh shelled fava beans
1/2 cup shaved aged pecorino
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Method:
Cut the asparagus, including the tips into very thin slices, crosswise ( I used a vegetable peeler) and place in a medium bowl. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil and blanch the favas for 1 minute then shock in a bowl of ice water. Gently peel skins from the favas and add to the asparagus. In a separate bowl. combine the lemon juice, vinegar and olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Feel free to add more or less lemon juice or olive oil to get a balanced flavorful dressing. Pour the dressing over the salad, toss to combine, then shave the pecorino over the top and sprinkle with the chopped mint. Enjoy!
And HOLEY MOLEY- Salted Caramel Brownies- this brownie recipe is stinking amazing. If you're like me- be prepared to make two sets of caramel. Even with a candy thermometer- it always takes me two batches to get it right.
