This is a classy version of that perfect summer food, Greek salad. The only difficult part is the care and patience needed for dicing the vegetables. July 13th 2010204 K 14.9 60 min.
Pogne de Romans
Pogne de Romans is a kind of brioche lightly flavoured with orange and rum. It originated in Romans-sur-Isère, a town in south-east France. This recipe dates back to medieval times, when it was made in a ring (or crown) shape to celebrate the end of Lent, as eggs could then be used again. This more contemporary version is not particularly tricky, though it takes a long time for all the kenading and resting stages. October 7th 201899 K 23.3 1 day 17 hours 40 min.
