Summer Lovin', Happened so Fast





This one warrants a bit of an explanation I think. Here in the north of France and also Belgium there is a type of cheese called fromage frais (fresh cheese), which is what I used today. However, I can't recall seeing it in the United States. It is somewhere between yogurt and sour cream, so feel free to use either if you're preparing this recipe. The real appeal of this dish for me was the contrast of sweet from the sugar and fruit and sour from the lime and dairy. It's perfect for a late summer dessert.

  1. Sounds like an excuse to go find some quark at the German store. Or would crème fraiche be a better substitute? That's definitely at Trader Joe's and Whole Paycheck.
