Gougeres

Ah, thursday. After coming home from a business trip to Atlanta, I set off to work Thursday morning. A couple of miles from home my check engine light came on. Turned around, dropped off the car at my (tax evading) mechanic and headed home to work. Maybe I'll look on the car trouble as a blessing in disguise because I was able to cook up some lovely gorgeres during lunch allowing me to post for the very first French Fridays with Dorie on time.

The recipe allows for the use of any cheese you have in the fridge, luckily, because I was working with very little in the way of ingredients. I chose some goats cheese and romano and they turned out perfectly. So simple but such a sophisticated treat. Perfect to eat while sitting on the back porch waiting to give all your money to the car mechanic.

Dorie picked our first set of recipes so I'm guessing these are some of her favorites. I'm really look forward to cooking along with this group!
