Afternoon Tea with Eyrleigh and Me-7/29/09
I had a tough time finding Swiss chard but I
finally found it at Publix. I made the Wilted Swiss Chard with Garlic, Lemon, and Parmesan. This dish had some very strong flavors and I don't think I'd make it again. It wasn't that I didn't like the dish, its flavor was just so strong that I can't picture it with many other dishes.
For dessert, I made the Maple-Blueberry Parfait on page 33. I've been really good at reducing recipes but for some reason, with this recipe, I forgot. This picture at left in actually 3 servings, whoops! This was a simple dessert with layers of blueberries, whipped cream, and crumbled ginger cookies sweetened only by maple syrup. Eyrleigh loved it and helped us finish off the giant parfaits.
