Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 dozen small potatoes, scrubbed
1/2 cup (125 ml) crème fraîche
The leaves from 1 large bunch chervil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake in the center of the oven and bake until they are tender, about 30 minutes.
  • 2. While the potatoes are baking, mince the chervil and fold it into the crème fraîche. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • 3. When the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and split each one down the center. Gently push the ends of the potatoes together to open them up, and season them inside with salt and pepper, and a large dollop of crème fraîche. Serve the remaining crème fraîche alongside.

Yield Makes about 2/3 cup

Number Of Ingredients 3

Coarse salt
4 cups loosely packed fresh chervil, with stems (about 4 bunches)
1/3 cup cold heavy cream

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil; stir in 1 tablespoon salt. Add chervil. Return to a boil; cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, immediately transfer to ice-water bath. Drain, and chop coarsely.
  • Process chervil with 1/4 cup cold water in a food processor until very finely chopped. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve; discard liquid. Whip cream in a medium bowl until thick and fluffy but still pourable; stir in chervil, and season with salt.
