These buckwheat pancakes came about for a few reasons: I get lots of requests for anything breakfast, I'm trying to cook with more whole grains, and I heard someone say it's almost impossible to make a great pancake using 100% buckwheat flour.

Patti's Mussels à la Marinière
These French mussels are reminiscent of dining in an outdoor café in the south of France. Serve Patti's mussels à la marinière with crusty bread, and a nice chilled glass of white wine. This exact recipe can also be used for clams.
Chocolate Tart
This homemade chocolate tart looks like it came out of a French bakery! The chocolate ganache is rich, glossy, and easy to make with just cream and chocolate chips. I cut it into small slices and serve with coffee for a delicious dessert.
Norwegian Potato Lefsa
Lefsa is a traditional Norwegian flatbread made with mashed potatoes, cream, flour, and sugar. Lefsa are usually reserved for holiday meals when they are served warm with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon-sugar for a sweet treat. They are also delicious rolled up with a juicy pickled herring.
