🍷 EntertainingToday's Tip
French dessert at home is rarely a baked showpiece. It is fruit, perhaps with cream. A slice of good chocolate. A simple yogurt with honey. The meal was the production. Dessert is the gentle landing.
Try This
After your next dinner, skip the baking. Arrange seasonal fruit on a plate, drizzle with honey, add a small piece of dark chocolate on the side. Serve with coffee. This is how most French homes end a meal.
Curated Pick
Our Recommendation
A bar of 70% dark chocolate from a French chocolatier. Break it into irregular pieces at the table. Serve alongside fruit and espresso.
