Shopping like a French cook in Hout Bay
Why every class starts with what is in season, and where to find it close to home.
Sample post
In France the menu starts at the market, not in the recipe book. We do the same here: what is ripe this week decides what we cook.
Ripe tomatoes for a gaspacho, fresh herbs for a sauce vierge, good butter for everything else. Buy less, buy better, and cook it the same day.
