Together with 6 other colleagues I spent my evening tasting the flavours of the Provence tonight.
What did we have? (a selection)
- Red/White/Rosé wine: Coteaux d’Aix en Provence
- Rillets de Thon
- Terrine de Chevreuil aux Champignons
- Tapenades d’Olives Noires aux Tomates Séchées
- Sardines à la Tomate et aux Herbes de Provence
The evening ended with a great comparison between two distinct ways of preparing aïoli. Either add garlic to plain mayonaise (which is what the dutch think aïoli is), or crush a clove of garlic, add 1 egg yoke and olive oil (perhaps some salt too). Mix well and enjoy!
Where did we go?
Lou Cigalou {nl}, a small store with a great variety of products of the Provence.
