I’ve
had this wacky idea to try a berry-studded goat cheese clafoutis, so
when I saw these gorgeous looking blueberries at the market, I figured
the time was right.
I
had a couple ounces of leftover chèvre in the fridge, and was very
excited to see if this possibly odd, but fundamentally sounds idea would
work. And, everything would have, if I had only skipped breakfast that
morning.
That
morning I woke up starving, and facing a pile of emails and other less
fun computer-driven busywork. So without thinking (literally) I whipped a
nice cheese omelet, using the aforementioned cheese. D’oh!
It
was a delicious mistake, and one I forgave myself for very quickly, but
it also presented me with a tough choice. Go back out to the store, or
just make a good, old fashioned, plain blueberry clafoutis. Laziness
prevailed, and here you have it.
So,
while I’m very proud of this clafoutis, I can’t help but wonder how
much better it would have been with that faint, but tangy accent from
the cheese. Maybe you could give it a try and let me know? I was simply
going to add it to the blender and mix it right into the blender.
Anyway,
goat cheese or not, this recipe is a great way to enjoy fresh, summer
fruit, and as I mention in the video, this technique really lets it play
the starring roll. I hope you give it a try soon. Enjoy!
