He used a fork to crumble the hard egg yolks, added salt and pepper and two spoonfuls of Dijon mustard and then stirred in the bacon bits and the mayonnaise before spooning portions, the size of walnuts, into the halved egg whites. He chopped some allumettes, thin strips of smoked bacon, and fried them in their own fat while Pamela passed him some mayonnaise she’d made. In the kitchen Bruno peeled the eggs, cut them in half and spooned out the solidified yolks. "Bruno had brought Pamela a dozen eggs from his chickens when he arrived to exercise the horses, and Miranda had hard-boiled them before rounding up the children for their bath. Well, you could follow the recipe if you could obtain the remarkable fresh local French ingredients! Like this: It's the food writing that really stands out - when Bruno cooks, you could almost follow his recipe.

If you don't know this series of novels, but have any taste for mystery stories at all, you should read all of them.

Idyllic, that is, except for the unusually high rate of murders and international intrigues, but that's what you pay for being in such wonderful books, isn't it?Ī full review of the plot and so on seems silly to me. It has lots of love for dogs and horses and riding in the splendid French countryside, and lots of interaction with the local inhabitants.Ībove all, The Shooting at Château Rock has delightful descriptions of purchasing, cooking, and savoring the foods of Bruno's region, the Périgord and the amazing produce of his idyllic town St. It has a bit of romance: Bruno and his lover the much more successful officer Isabella, who has a high placed position in Paris, still find any imaginable future to be unattainable. Yes, it's brand new, and I read it in 24 hours.Īs do all the books about the amazing Bruno, this book has a well-crafted plot full of suspense and drama and coincidences (but not too many to stay believable). Walker hasn't lost his magic touch and I loved reading this book. Published yesterday: The Shooting at Château Rock by Martin Walker, latest in the wonderful series of mysteries featuring Bruno, Chief of Police.

I hope I will find wild-caught shrimp again soon. Farm-raised shrimpĪre terrible for the environment, the workers, and your health. Good old-fashioned tuna salad with hard boiled egg. We also consumed one jar of herring this month: another food from my childhood. Tuna croquettes made from canned tuna, and served with mashed potatoesĪnd peas - a non-meat dinner straight out of my childhood!
