Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Blueberry Clafoutis

[heart_this] · Jun 21, 2009 · 236 Comments

Blueberry Clafoutis

Last week I had the pleasure of attending The Ultimate Chef’s Table with Chef Curtis Stone food event put on by The Bay and Curtis Stone to promote his new line of cookware . At this event Curtis Stone showed off his new line of cookware by using it to cook his guests dinner. Of course all of the dishes that he made came straight from his most recent cookbook Relaxed Cooking with Curtis Stone: Recipes to Put You in My Favorite Mood and included a Tuna Ceviche, a Shrimp and Pesto Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes, a Fresh Herb Crusted Rack of Lamb and a Blueberry Clafoutis. The event took place at Dish cooking studio here in Toronto where it was set up such that all of the guests could sit at tables surrounding the cooking area and watch chef Stone prepare the meal.
I had a great time at The Ultimate Chef’s Table with Chef Curtis Stone! The food was really good and I got to meet a lot of interesting people including a few other Toronto food bloggers and Curtis Stone. Curtis Stone was really nice and did a great job of keeping his guests entertained while he cooked dinner. While cooking he also answered any questions that his guests had on any topic. I brought my camera and took some pictures which I uploaded to my flickr account here: The Ultimate Chef’s Table with Chef Curtis Stone Photo Set One of my favorite dishes from the meal was the dessert, the blueberry clafoutis, and I wanted to try making it at home. It is not quite blueberry season here but luckily the stores are currently filled with cheap California blueberries. A while ago I made and enjoyed a cherry clafoutis so I was looking forward to comparing the new recipe with it. Clafoutis commonly has an almond flavour and most recipes that I have seen just call for almond extract but this one uses toasted almond slices that are ground into a powder. This clafoutis was really easy to make; you just mix everything in a food processor and then bake it for a few minutes. I was just as pleased with the home cooked version of this blueberry clafoutis as I was with the one that chef Stone served. Blueberries work really well in clafoutis and I liked the bit of texture that the ground almonds added.

    Thanks for the email regarding the printable recipe link.. I appreciate you taking the time to point me in the right direction.

    This clafoutis looks very inviting – do you think frozen blueberries would work just as good in the cooking.. not for the decoration?

    I am glad you enjoyed your evening with Curtis Stone – another Aussie!! 🙂

    Sobey's just had a cherry clafoutis recipe I just made, it was delish! Living in NB we will soon have tons of wild blueberries, will have to figure out the ratio as they are much smaller and could easily overpower the recipe, or they might add just the right amount of flavor as they are so tiny.

    It's definitely blueberry season in the South. I'm buying them practically every time I see them and I have a freezer full of them now. This looks like the blueberry recipe to try!

    Thanks for this site. I have been trying a lot of your recipes, thanks to your descriptions of the taste and you have helped me over a "cooking rut".

    I have been having something of a blueberry love-fest recently. here in California they are fantastic. the first blueberry I ever remember tasting was at camp in Monterey, Tennessee in the 1950s. We had camped in tents away from the cabins and on a misty morning we picked the berries (placing them in tin buckets and eating a few as we did) to make pancakes. Nothing had ever tasted so fantastic to me. I still love them.

    Just gorgeous. I've made clafoutis with cherries, but never thought to try it with blueberries.

    CinnamonQuill: I liked the texture that the ground toasted almonds added so I would use this recipe but it would be a toss up between the cherries and the blueberries.
