Labor Day Weekend is almost over. When it is it will be time to put away all your white clothes until next season. Impresario Sean "Puffy" Combs has been known to mark the occasion with an "All White Party" at which guests must observe a strict white wardrobe dress code. At today's brunch, however, we inadvertently had our own version of a white party, with an emphasis on white ingredients...
Though the finished product is decidedly golden, Julia Child's leek quiche owes its flavor to white flour, butter, and heavy cream
Some of the big playaz who made star turns at our white ingredients party:
16 oz sour cream
16 oz ricotta cheese
1 pound butter
3 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 cup half and half
buttermilk
3 cups flour
2 pounds potatoes
two white onions
cream of mushroom soup (technically gray I think)
Real health foods. The yellow food groups were also well represented by corn, eggs, and cups of gruyere and cheddar cheese.
Sagaponack corn pudding with basil
Apple muffins, buttermilk biscuits, and "party potatoes"--so named because you only really want to eat these uber-unhelathy spuds at a party--were some of the other dishes that owed their deliciousness to white ingredients.
