MAPLE ROASTED ALMONDS WITH FLEUR DE SEL LES FOUGERES



Maple Roasted Almonds With Fleur De Sel Les Fougeres image

These are yummy with drinks, or as a snack. Fleur de sel is formed on the top of evaporating sea water. You can find it in spice shops or specialty shops. Otherwise sea salt should work, perhaps crushed a little. The restaurant in Chelsea Quebec sell these and have often sold out. Edited to add the timing of adding the salt..dont wait til the syrup hardens.

MAPLE AND BALSAMIC GLAZE LES FOUGERES



Maple and Balsamic Glaze Les Fougeres image

Oh so good. It works with any meat, from game to chicken and also as a base for a vinaigrette. I love it with steak, i just heat it with the pan juices and then drizzle it over and make sure there is enough on the side. Baste chicken with it, or simply glaze it after cooking. The vinaigrette base is terrific. I badgered this out of Charlie, the wonderful co owner with his gorgeous wife Jennifer of Les Fougeres. One of the recipe's missing from their award winning cookbook "a year at les fougeres". I wanted the proportions since sometimes you just want 2 tbs quickly. Also for those who cannot get to Quebec easily. Equal amounts of each and the adjust to your personal taste.
