        Life in rural France - Food - Friends - Wine - Cheese - Comments

   Welcome to French Food Focus. The name describes the intent of this blog. I'll focus on food and because I live in rural   
   France the stress will be upon French food.  There are numerous posts concerning life in France and, certainly, opinions
   about anything that strikes my fancy.
  
If you have some good recipes  or if you want to rave about any great French restaurants this  is the place to do it.

 I hope you enjoy my ramblings about rural France!

Bean Dip.    From my friend Patti.


The recipe for the bean dip is so easy.... Here it is.  Maybe some time
you can try it

1 cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (or you can use fresh beans
soaked and boiled)
2 cloves garlic
2 T fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup Olive Oil
1/4 cup loosely packed) fresh parsley
Salt and Pepper
1/2 Tsp. Fresh Oregano
Brie Cheese
Pita Bread

Place beans, garlic, lemon juice, 1/3 cup olive oil and parsley in a
food processor or blender.  Pulse until mixture is coarsely chopped.
Season with salt & Pepper.
Cut each pita in half and then in 8 wedges.  Arrange on baking sheet.
Pour a small amount of olive oil on pita wedges.  Sprinkle with oregano,
salt & pepper - top with a generous slice of brie and baked until
melted. Top with bean mixture.

You can also use any kind bread slice.  Delicious.....
