Mint Schnapps.

If you have a lot of mint in your garden or on your balcony, this is a recipe that I recommend.
Besides to be drank pure, this liquor should give a refined flavor to ice cream, in particular to chocolate ice cream and also to other delicious desserts.

You should use a mix of different mint. The choice is yours.

Ingredients: about 100 beautiful fresh mint leaves, 1 lemon, 1 liter of alcohol from liquor at 95 °, 1 liter of water, 800g of sugar.

Tarragon Chicken scallops

Chicken and turkey breast, can be cooked in many different ways.
If we are careful and skilled in cutting, we can make from a single chicken breast cutlets lot more slices than we might believe at first glance, as  tells us also Pellegrino Artusi:
"[..] a capon breast may be sufficient for four or five people. Slice breasts into thin slices almost like paper, give them the best shape that you can [..] he says in the recipe" Chicken Breasts to sauté "

Ingredients for 4 people: 2 chicken breasts or a similar amount of turkey breast, butter and a little olive oil, ½ cup of dry white wine, a sprig of fresh tarragon, 2 tablespoons of fresh cream (optional), Flour, Salt and pepper.
