My kids recently asked me why I started Petites Choses more than 17 years ago, I think I did as an extension of me, of my being. A way to connect and grow. I’m super happy and proud to feature in the @myfoodstoryglobal recipe book with some exceptional chefs and home cooks from more than 40 countries, many of them I am blessed to call my friends. The book is about how food- once again- connects, bridges gaps and tells stories.Do what you love- love what you do.

I used some romaine lettuce, a selection of micro greens (fennel, chard and chives), ripe peaches and feta cheese cubes. For the dressing, in a glass jar, I mixed 1 to 2 ratio of rape cider vinegar to olive oil, with Dijon mustard, salt and pepper. Shake until emulsified and drizzle in the salad just before serving. Delicious!
