Summertime is here, and cool foods are in, and I mean cool from the fridge. Here's a simple fruit salad. Go to your local Farmer's Market if you have one near by, if not your local supermarket will do just fine. These are the fruits that I like to use, you can substitute any of these for what ever you want.


FRUIT SALAD


2 lbs. of diced pineapple (fresh if you can get it)
1/2 pounds of grapes sliced in half
1 lb. of sliced bananas
1 lb. of Honeydew Melon diced
1 lb. of diced Watermelon
1/4 lb. of chopped Macadamia nuts


Toss all of these fruits in a bowl, and cover with plastic wrap and chill for a few hours.


CREME FRAICHE


1 cup of whole milk
2 tbsp. of vinegar
Mix the whole milk and vinegar together, let sit for a few minutes until it curdles. This your Buttermilk.


Then add 2 tbsp. of this butter milk to 1 cup of heavy cream. Let it sit sightly covered until it thickens, and then refrigerate.


When ready to eat, place fruits in serving bowls with a spoonful of Creme Fraiche. Creme Fraiche is pronounced (crem fresh). It has a tangy sour flavor. Try it out, and if you can purchase Creme Fraiche all the better. Then you won't need to wait for the milk to curdle.
