Apple Clafoutis
Clafoutis is a French dish that is sort of a cross between a flan and a pancake. Similar to a flan, clafoutis is a very easy dessert that always impresses. It’s hearty enough even to serve for breakfast.

Civet de lievre marine (Marinated hare stew)
The hare should be marinated for 12 to 24 hours, but no more. If marinated for more than 24 hours, it will lose its freshness. The dish can be prepared several days ahead and reheated just before serving. Use a young hare that weighs no more than six pounds.

Provençal Artichoke Ragout
This is the way my friend Christine Picasso prepares artichokes. Her touch is the inclusion of sweet red peppers, a nutritious complement to the bitter artichokes. She calls this Artichauts à la barigoule, a dish every French cook makes differently, each claiming his or hers to be the authentic version.

Lamb Loin With Basil Crust and Fennel
In July and August I use a lot of fresh basil. I love to use it as a coating on a roasted loin of lamb. When the meat is sliced, there is the beautiful green of the crust and the gorgeous pink of rare lamb, the colors arranged on a pale creamy bed of quickly cooked fennel. There are three steps to cooking the loin, a cut you can get by asking your butcher to debone a rack of lamb. I sauté the meat to brown and caramelize the outside, then I roast it a bit, coat it with the basil crust and roast it again.
