It is officially the first day of summer. You couldn’t tell by looking out the window as the sun is hiding behind thick cloud but I am hopeful that the sun is on its way and will stick around for a while. I cannot wait for the abundance of summer fruit that is ripening as I write this post. I dream of cherry clafoutis, apricot and peach galettes, a summer berry pavlova with soft whipped cream and bowls of juicy ripe fruit to snack on. I have enjoyed the first of the strawberries and I know raspberries are not far off.
I thought the first day of summer would be a perfect day to share some photos from a cherry clafoutis shoot I did to accompany Sharon Hunt’s story about cherries and her delicious recipe for clafoutis for the Summer edition of Edible Vancouver Magazine. While local cherries have not arrived quite yet, I imagine it won’t be long and it is great to have a few recipes in line for when they do.
