Food brings back memories in powerful ways. This past week I recreated the first dinner Corey and I shared in France for our honeymoon. Our good friend Marshall was teaching English in Noyon, France and we were lucky enough to get to visit him for part of our journey. He graciously prepared this dinner for us and it was an epicurean delight.
We started the meal off with a bottle of Sauternes—a wine made by a rare fungus growth on grapes, which results in a higher sugar content, producing a very sweet but complex tasting wine. We paired the wine with goat cheese, foie gras, Camembert cheese, Moroccan olives, and several fresh baguettes.
