Provence Cooking Easy Recipe
Egg Plant, tomato,Olive Oil and Herbs de Provence,
Magic Herbs, Holy Oil Eggplant and Tomatoes
Cumin and other spices from the south make their way to Provence through
Marseilles and mix with Provence favorites: local produce, fruits, local wines,
and the magic Herbs de Provence gathered in the hills.
Going out to dinner lets you know just how you are doing in your own cooking adventures. Lunch in
Goult, a beautiful hill town near Gordes, proves interesting and has nice eye appeal. There are rentals
in Goult where a stone windmill at the top of the hill makes this town a great walk.
Salon de Provence
Eygalieres, a great place for hiking and biking

Eygalieres provide

After hiking you don't care to
work too hard in the preparation
of a meal. Egg plants tomatoes,
thyme, rosemary, grated
Parmesan and Camargue sea
salt with first cold pressed olive
oil make an egg plant dish that
takes 15 minutes to prepare and
then bakes for one hour while you
get some relax time.
Slice the eggplant in half and lay
on the flat baking pan. Sprinkle
with olive oil and fresh thyme or
an Herbs de Provence mix.
sprinkle on a little goats cheese.
Next cover the eggplant with
tomato halves.. Surround with
rosemary and bake until the
tomato caps brown.
The tomatoes bake and take on a sun dried tomato taste. This one
makes up in taste for any lack of eye appeal.
Provence in June brings all the ingredients fresh to market. The foraging
trips to the hills provide the herbs, the local vineyards and olive oil mills
the rest; it gets no better then cooking in Provence in the spring.
