I felt very lucky when I saw black figs at Granville Island Public Market. That means I will be able to do the Salad of Black Figs dish from the French Laundry Cookbook! Although the figs were not cheap, but they were not too bad: $1.49 each, and they were quite large – I only needed one fig for each serving.
This would be my first dinner party for 6 that features 3 recipes all from the cookbook. I was super excited. And this would be my first time having Erin and James over for a sit down course-by-course dinner, and I really wanted to do something nice.
