Chef daughter makes me creme brulee with a marginal amount of sugar on the top which she blasts with her blowtorch and it's fab. Made the mistake of ordering one at the Ivy in Cheltenham a couple of years ago - yuk yuk and thrice yuk. Unbearably sickly sweet.

For cauli rice, the cauli needs to be fresh - or you can use frozen cauli to do it.

Salad leaves - now this is something the French are usually good at - just the right amount of the right dressing on said salad. I'm not a lover of salad leaves without any dressing even if it's just a drop of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Grass actually tastes sweet to me and has done ever since I was a child - not that I've regularly tried eating it!

I try to eat green veg because I know it's good for me but I also have some home-made green soup most days. It's made with a pack of spinach, watercress, an onion and a head of broccoli, boiled up in 2.5 litres veg stock then blitzed. I freeze enough portions to have at lunchtimes for a week, followed by either nuts or cheese and lo-carb crackers. With a judicious helping of pepper on top it is quite tasty, and more palatable than as "normal" veg!

Lucky you living in France with all that wonderful cheese and red wine. We couldn't get over this year due to covid and I have seriously missed my annual break in your lovely country.
 
Hear hear to the last bit of Vonny's post! - we normally spend a couple of months touring hither and yon in our Motorhome so we've really missed that. One week in Cornwall and another in Wales hasn't been quite the same .....

I have a couple of houses over there (one fully refurbished and the other about 75% done) and we haven't managed to get over this year as well. Not had many guest either :(
