S’MORES!
June 30, 2009
As the fourth of July is fast approaching, I thought to say a word about the s’more. The quintessential summer dessert, it is, in my view, a necessary element to any barbecue and most certainly the fourth of July barbecue. The strength of the s’more is that it instantly fills you with sweet memories of summer camps and best friends and wet dogs and kick the can and hot dog dinners and all those romantic details of the american summer. Here are some pics from our last year’s 4th of July bash at the summer house.
setting the tone….
s’mores go best with some quality champagne…don’t forget the americana napkins
supplies. note: we’ve made some substitutions from the traditional graham cracker/hershey bar version as we’re in provence where those things don’t exist.
the fire’s hot
you MUST use a stick you found in the yard….no skewers/etc they don’t count.
the french-american classic cooked to perfection.
