A favorite of mine too.

Mom used to make this from scratch;  I use Stauffer's also.

My sister & niece are in town visiting and this was breakfast this morning. Toasted bagels (Noah's...I know , I know...) & compound cream cheese (smoked salmon, capers, shallots, & lemon), lemon & chives from the garden and a bit of cracked pepper to finish.

I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food.

A note beneath the Tonnato recipe in Six Seasons says to spoon it on bread and top it with soft-cooked eggs, tomatoes and capers so this is what we have here.

I made it because I couldn't imagine what it would taste like. Turns out it tastes very, very good.
I prep'ed the tomatoes as he does in other recipes in the book by cutting them, seasoning with salt, pepper and some red wine vinegar and letting that sit whilst the eggs cooked.

Yeah. Crepes need to find their way onto my plate soon!

@kayb & @Thanks for the Crepes - thank you for the compliments!  

 

Greek yogurt, fresh July Flame peaches from the farmers market and some of the Spiced Pecan and Pumpkin Seed Crumble from Deep Run Roots.

The crumble is seasoned with cayenne, fennel and Worcestershire sauce so it adds a savory contrast to the sweet peaches.

Hello poached egg, my old friend
I've come to eat you up again
Because a egg yolk softly creeping
Left its toast while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Among the eggs of breakfast

In an egg yolk stands a soldier

And a dipper by his trade

His companions lie beside him

Waiting each their own fates

Of dipping in the egg cup

And crunching 'til they're done, 

They are breakfast, they are breakfast

And the eggshell still remains

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la.

 

You made me do it.

They are really lovely melons, aren't they?  I bought this one from a local farm stand.  The fragrance of it was absolutely intoxicating when I picked it up out of the bin! 

On my way home, I stopped off at Trader Joe's and saw that they had some organic Galia melons as well.  They were a better price than at the farm but they didn't smell nearly as good.

My favorite of the other melons these folks grow is the Saticoy melon - sweeter, more fragrant and nicer texture (to me) than a cantaloupe. Haven't seen them yet this year.

Yesterday's breakfast. My niece wanted a Japanese style breakfast so I made her this. A bit of leftover rice in dashi with a tuna furikake, and a salted plum. I considered topping it with a raw quail egg, but I thought that might be pushing it. She seemed pleased. I also made the plum torte for the less adventurous in the group.
