| | Readers' Favorite Strawberry Recipes The strawberries grown in the Aveyron are special, prompting George Christopher Davies to document them in his book, Our Home in the Aveyron. "Great quantities of strawberries are grown between the vines. These are of a small kind somewhat larger than our wild strawberries: they come in season earlier than our garden strawberries, and are much prized for their fine flavour." Although you might not be able to buy French heritage berries at your local market, try these French strawberry recipes in your own kitchen for some European flair. | Rose Petal Apple Jelly Recipe The embodiment of a summer garden! This rose petal apple jelly recipe makes a lightly fruity, subtly fragranced gel. The fresher the rose petals, the more heady the finished product will be, so take the time to choose the best flowers from your garden. Serve the jelly with a cheese board for a wildly delicious contrast in taste, texture, and aroma. | Cherry Tarte Tatin Recipe Juicy and sweet, with a pleasing ruby hue, this cherry tarte Tatin recipe makes a magnificent showpiece dessert. Use any combination of sweet cherries you like, including the convenient frozen ones found at most local markets. Also known in the United States as cherry tart Tatin, this buttery, fruity confection tastes wonderful with a spoonful of simple Chantilly cream. | Mirabelle Plum Clafouti Recipe This Mirabelle plum clafouti recipe, also known as clafouti aux mirabelles, uses the delicious addition of dainty yellow plums swirled into the traditional custard cake. Mirabelle plums are delicately scented, popular for their tart, tangy skin and juicy, sweet flesh. Their uniquely sweet, tart, and spicy flavor makes a wonderful focal point in jams, tarts, cakes, and spirits. | | | | French Food Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | More from About.com | | | | | | Living with Depression From the little things (managing household chores), to the more challenging (learning to forgive) these eight tips can help you manage depression.
