Breakfast Crepes à la Ben Davis

Don’t be intimidated; crepes are easy to make. They will taste as good as the eggs you use. Adapted from a recipe in Piper Davis and Ellen Jackson’s The Grand Central Baking Book, these crepes are a delightful way to begin your day.


Gazpacho

So simple you don’t even have to cook it, this Spanish soup of raw, blended vegetables is full of summer flavor. Gazpacho is perfect on a hot, sweaty day when the best meal is a cold drink. Prepare one day in advance.

5 medium-sized ripe tomatoes
1 red pepper
1 cucumber
2 cloves garlic
2 slices country-style white bread
2 Tbsp fresh tarragon leaves
1 Tbsp sherry vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

1. Cut tomatoes, pepper, cucumber, garlic and bread into small pieces and put them in a large bowl.

2. Add tarragon, vinegar and olive oil and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

3. The following day, blend the soup and pass it through a fine sieve or strainer. Serve immediately, garnished with homemade croutons.

Makes 8 servings
