Basil salmon terrine

Foie gras with mustard seeds and green onions in duck jus
Today, I'm going to write about ONE french cuisine, and its recipe.
The beauty of this heirloom tomato tartine recipe is its simplicity. Heirloom tomatoes are famous for their amazing garden-fresh flavor and aroma. To cover up those sought-after qualities with anything more than salt and pepper would be a waste of delicious fruit. Just layer the fresh, sliced tomatoes on hearty French country bread for a fantastic unfussy dinner.
