Bonjour!

Rebecca Sherrow
I've always kept a journal in the kitchen. It's where I scribble recipe ideas, note my adaptations and alterations, jot down grocery lists, keep track of my thoughts on flavour combination, sketch photography designs and so much more. Cerise Chérie is the result of this stained and scrawled journal. It's where the ideas that come to me while washing dishes make their debut into the real world. These are my French-inspired, seasonal recipes, stories and lifestyle tips - made for the American kitchen. Thanks for visiting! -Rebecca

I never deny myself a craving.  Whether it’s a bit of chocolate or a small glass of Port after dinner, or a big bowl of veggie soup, I believe that our bodies tell us exactly what they need through our cravings, if we’ll only listen. If we deny ourselves we’ll ultimately end up binging or satisfying the need in some other, less healthy way.  We’ve had such a crazy week, and I’ve had a nagging sore throat since Tuesday.  Yesterday I was craving butternut soup more than anything - I made it with an extra dose of healing garlic and had it for lunch and again for dinner, then went to bed at 9:00. I feel about a thousand times better today! ✨ There’s no shortage of Butternut Soup recipes out there, but I really love this lighter, cream-free version that can be thrown together in a matter of minutes. 1 TBSP butter 2 shallots 6 cloves garlic 5 cups chicken or veggie broth 1 (medium) butternut squash, peeled, seeded and chopped 1 large russet potato, peeled and chopped 1 tsp dry thyme white pepper salt Sauté the shallots and garlic in the butter until soft.  Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.  Cover and simmer for 25 mins.  Purée with an immersion or countertop blender, taste for seasoning & serve with croûtons. #inmykitchen #soupforthesoul
Last week’s Cardamom Orange Cake with my favourite, super-adaptable brown butter glaze. I use this glaze all the time on my cakes, switching up the flavours to complement whatever I’m baking. Both recipes are on Cerise Chérie.♥️ Also, I’ve been living in my new chambray apron from @177milkstreet . Love it! . . . . . . #inmykitchen #kitchenscenes #heresmyfood #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52thanksgivingcountdown #milkstreet #dessertfirst #sweettooth #buzzfeast #huffposttaste #cerisechérie #tastingtable #autumnmood #darktable #thebakefeed #imsomartha #thanksgivingrecipes #weekendbaking #slowfood #hautecuisines #thanksgivingdinner #homemadefood
Mmmm, hot cocoa, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways: With Kentucky straight bourbon and brown sugar... or with black spiced rum and a cinnamon stick... and with Cointreau and a dash of fresh nutmeg.... or with crème de menthe & a peppermint stick. What’s your favourite way to spike your chocolat chaud? ☕️ (P.S. all these recipes are on the blog! Just click on “recipes” and look for “Hot Cocoa Bar” under Le Cocktail. ♥️ . . . . . . . . #cocktail #whiskeywednesday #hotchocolate #chocolatchaud #mixology #cheers #happyhour #cerisechérie #hotcocoa #cocktailhour #whiskeylover #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52thanksgivingcountdown #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #hautecuisines #chocoholic #chocolate #sweettooth #dessertfirst #kitchenscenes #bourbon #imsomartha #🥃 #🍫
My spin on the classic Thanksgiving menu includes French-inspired recipes like Provençal roast turkey, savoury pain perdu and more. They’re all on Cerise Chérie at the link in my profile. You’ll also find a few little tips on timing, planning and preparation, because, if you ask me, the most stressful part of hosting #Thanksgiving dinner is trying to determine the order in which everything goes into the oven, to get it all to the table on time and while still hot. Do you agree? 🦃 #thanksgivingdinner #cerisechérie . . . . . . #heresmyfood #foodandwine #huffposttaste #imsomartha #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52grams #hautecuisines #buzzfeast #huffposttaste #f52thanksgivingcountdown #fallfood #autumnmood #fallfeast #slowfood #homemadefood #kitchenscenes #darktable #inmykitchen
