Lunchtime Bliss
I might get in trouble for this one. While I’ve shared family recipes before, this one has always been kept under lock and key, passed down from generation to generation only under a vow of secrecy. But today I’m breaking the rules and sharing it with you. I think that you’ll find I’ve never shared a recipe as sophisticated, complex, and yet purely wholesome (potentially organic!) as this one. This is my son’s favorite lunch (he has mature taste!), and despite the fact that it’s time-consuming to make, I think it’s important as a mom that I take the time to make him homemade lunches. Yes, it’s involved, but at the end of the day he can taste the love baked into it and that’s what matters.
What You Need
Only the finest ingredients will do:
Bread. Only the fluffiest brioche or homemade bread, please. Peanut Puree. For best results, grow the nuts yourself and cream them with a mortar and pestle, as I do. Please note that the peanuts will take approximately 15 weeks to grow and then they will need to dry for an additional 3-4 weeks before they can be used, so you must plan ahead. Fresh Fruit Reduction. Use only hand-harvested summer berries that have been reduced on the stovetop until you can taste the sunshine. Heavenly.
This is just an overview of the ingredients I used and why. For the full recipe please scroll down to the bottom of the post!
