caprese

Blumenthal replied through communications director, Maria McElwain, who turned around these 150 words of insalata caprese:

So when I found the “Peach” edition of the Short Stack mini-cookbook series, written by Beth Lipton, I was delighted to discover two recipes that treat peaches like tomatoes: one, a pasta salad with cubed peaches in place of cherry tomatoes; the other, a caprese with peach slices subbed for beefsteaks.

Now, whether these folks invite me over for dinner once that basil becomes pesto or Caprese salad ... that’s up to them.

To make the lemon torta caprese, start by placing the butter and white chocolate on the top of a double broiler and melt until smooth.

The former “Giada at Home” host put her own spin on the beloved torta caprese, an indulgent flourless cake named for the Italian island of Capri.
