New Potatoes with Peas & Mint
This is another of our favorite recipes from The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook. It's so wonderfully refreshing and a great use for all the mint and chives we have growing in the garden. Our friends always ask for this potato salad.
New Potatoes with Peas & Mint
20 small new red potatoes, rinsed
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups shelled fresh peas
2 cups creme fraiche
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
3 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
Salt and pepper to taste
Boil the potatoes in water until tender. Drain, cut into quarters. Leave
skins on.
Whisk oil and wine together and drizzle over the hot potatoes. Stir to
coat. Cool to room temperature.
Add peas to the salad and then creme fraiche, mint and chives. Toss gently
to blend.
Season with salt and pepper.
Refrigerate several
hours or overnight before serving.

Quick and easy recipes for fresh green beans, gourmet green bean recipes
There is nothing that can quite match the taste of farm fresh green beans. Sure, the prep time is a bit longer than if you were opening a can or using a bag out of the freezer, but it's a real treat and one I like to take advantage of since the season only lasts for a few months of the year.
Russian Green Beans in Sour Cream & Tomato Sauce
This is a recipe that we attribute to The Best Foods of Russia by Sonia Uvezian. It's a tasty and delightful green bean dish unlike any other we've had. It was our first attempt at Russian cuisine and a success! We used regular fat sour cream but you can certainly substitute light.
Thanksgiving Dinner Recipes, Turkey Help
I took the turkey out of the freezer and put it into the refrigerator two days before Thanksgiving so that it would thaw thoroughly. I also kept an eye on it to make sure it was thawing. The day before Thanksgiving I got the turkey out, removed the giblets and rinsed it. I put the turkey back in the refrigerator.
