Here we are in early June when fresh produce is so plentiful and so flavorful that we do not need complicated dishes to make the ingredients shine. From fresh berries, to cherries, fresh herbs, zucchini, and crisp salad greens, there are so many recipes which make great use of these seasonal vegetables and fruits that are at their peak right now.
This is the time to experiment with new ingredients, or, with familiar ingredients in new ways! In this roundup, I highlight some of my favorite early summer recipes that I will be making this month. For those craving something sweet, I have also included three delightful desserts which use early summer fruits such as strawberries, cherries and berries. I hope you will find something you like and will give it a try this month!
